Staging Options
Option 1 - Pro Staging: In this mode, 60 seconds are
allowed for either vehicle to break a stage beam. Either
driver can stage first; after one vehicle is staged, the
Starting Line Console allows ten seconds for the second
vehicle to stage. The tree will begin the race 0.7 seconds
after the last driver stages his vehicle. Note: If the second vehicle does not
stage after 10 seconds, the tree will begin the race and the unstaged vehicle
will be disqualified.
Option 2 - EZ-Staging (Default Setting): This mode
operates the same as Pro Staging, but allows more time
between staging and the start of the race. The tree will
instead begin the race 2 seconds after the last driver
stages his vehicle. Note: If the second vehicle does not stage
after 10 seconds, the tree will begin the race and the unstaged vehicle will
be disqualified.
Option 3 - Hand Staging: Some vehicles do not have
the precise low-speed throttle capability required for
staging by radio control. The Hand Stage mode allows the
maximum amount of time between staging and the start
of the race, so the drivers have sufficient time to resume
their driving positions after staging their vehicles by hand. The tree will
begin the race 5 seconds after the last driver stages his vehicle.
Note: If the second vehicle does not stage after 10 seconds, the tree will
begin the race and the unstaged vehicle will be disqualified.
Option 3 - Pro Tree Practice: This is the same as Pro Mode,
but no race is run. It is only for practicing staging and
launch. One or two racers are supported, and the Finish
Line Console is not used.
Option 4 - Sportsman Tree Practice: This is the same as
Sportsman Mode, but no race is run. It is only for practicing
staging and launch. One or two racers are supported, and
the Finish Line Console is not used.
Option 2 - Sportsman Tree (Default Setting): This
simulates the start of an actual sportsman race. After both
vehicles are staged, the top yellow LED lights first, then
each consecutive LED lights at a half-second interval until
the green LED lights.
Option 1 - Pro Tree: This simulates the start of an actual
pro race. After both vehicles are staged, the top three
yellow LEDs will light together, then after 4/10 of a second,
the green LED comes on.
