SpeedTrac X Operation Instructions

Printable User Manual

Thank you for purchasing this SpeedTrac X sport radar. TheSpeedTrac X sport radar is one of the most exciting and innovative electronicproducts on the market today and represents the latest technology innovations.

WARNING: USE ONLY THE SPEEDTRAC X AC ADAPTER. USE OF ANYOTHER ADAPTERS (DO NOT USE A SPEEDCHEK ADAPTER) WILL LIKELY RESULT IN SEVEREDAMAGE TO YOUR SPEEDTRAC X AND VOID THE WARRANTY.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT INFORMATIONPlease read the GeneralSafety Guidelines, and Safe Use Recommendations.

CONTROL PANEL FUNCTIONS & OTHER FEATURES

3-DIGITLED DISPLAY:

Speeds are displayed for approximately 2-3 seconds beforeautomatically clearing. Note that while the SpeedTrac X sports radar isdisplaying a speed, you must wait until the display clears to obtain the nextspeed reading. The bright LED display allows daytime outdoor visibility; howeverfor the best viewing, try to position your unit in shade or partial shade, whenusing it outdoors in very bright light.

ON/OFF INDICATOR:

By pressing ON, an indicator light beside the MPH button willflash. The flashing light indicated that your SpeedTrac X sports radar is readyto detect and display an object’s speed in MPH. Press the ON/OFF button again toturn the unit OFF.

AUTO SHUT OFF DISABLE:

To disable the Auto Shut Off and leave your unit continuallyON for longer periods, at the same time, press both of the MPH and Km/H buttons.This mode of operation is indicated by a double flash of either the MPH or Km/Hunit’s indicator light (Auto Shut Off mode is a single flash.). To change backto Auto Shut Off mode, either turn the unit OFF, or press both the MPH and Km/Hagain. The next time you turn the unit back ON, the Auto Shut Off function isonce again activated. It is recommended that you use the optional Power Supplyand not batteries, if using the Auto Shut Off Disable function.

PRO-MODE (or “low speed cutoff”):

Targets traveling slower than 35MPH (56 Km/H) are ignored.This is useful for activities where you do not want to accidentally measureslower speed movements when the target is moving quickly, as in measuring golfclub head speeds. To activate PRO-MODE operation press both MPH and Recall atthe same time, the lower half of the “1” digit (left most digit) flashes alongwith either the MPH or the Km/H indicator light.

RECALL:

By pushing the “RECALL” button, the sports radar recalls themost recent speed displayed. You can recall the “last” reading any number oftimes. However, a particular reading will be “lost” once the next speed isregistered.

MPH and Km/H:

SpeedTrac X can show speeds in either miles-per-hour (MPH) orkilometers-per-hour (Km/H). To change from the power on default MPH to Km/H,simply press the Km/H button. The unit’s indicator lamps show the current unitof measurement. You can also switch back and forth using “RECALL” to autoconvert speeds captured in MPH and display them in Km/H (press “Km/H” then“RECALL” to auto convert from MPH) and visa versa.

INDICATOR LIGHTS (Speed Unit Indicator Lights):

These indicator lights show the current mode of operation ofyour SpeedTrac X sports radar. Whether the speed is displayed in MPH, Km/H or ifthe Auto Shut-Off has been disabled.

INTERNAL ANTENNA:

The unit’s internal antenna is located in the top, frontcenter of your SpeedTrac X, between the two sets of switches. Do not block orcover this area when attempting to measure the speed of targets.

CARRYING HANDLE/SUPPORT STAND:

The SpeedTrac X sports radar’s handle is designed for threeoperation positions: Closed for easy storage, locked at set angle to function asa stand and straight up for carrying and hanging the unit.

TRIPOD MOUNT:

Tripod mount is located on the bottom of the SpeedTrac Xunit. Optional Tripod is Part Number 52006.

BATTERY COMPARTMENT:

You can power your SpeedTrac X sports radar with four (4) “C”cell batteries (not included). For longer life, higher quality alkalinebatteries are strongly recommended. To install batteries, remove batterycompartment cover at the back of the unit. Insert the batteries making sure theplus/minus (+/-) sides match the indicators in the battery compartment. Replacebatteries when the unit displays “LO”. If you do not plan to use your SpeedTracX sports radar for extended periods of time, remove batteries to preventpotential damage caused by leakage and/or corrosion. CAUTION: Use ofrechargeable batteries can harm your SpeedTrac X and will void your warranty.

DC POWER JACK:

You can also power your SpeedTrac X sports radar from an ACpower source (household-type, wall source electricity) by connecting anoptional, custom SpeedTrac X AC wall adapter (available from EMG Companies, Inc.– see enclosed order form) to the connector jack located on the side of theSpeedTrac X unit. CAUTION: Use of any other AC adapter (including a“SpeedChek” AC adapter) may result in erraticperformance or will DAMAGE your SpeedTrac X sports radar and VOID your warranty.Use extreme care.

HOW THE SPEEDTRAC X WORKS

The SpeedTrac X sports radar utilizes X-Band DRO DopplerShift radar technology to clock speeds. The internally located antenna, whenactivated, sends out a radio frequency (RF) signal at a specific frequency. Thesignal projects from the unit like a flashlight beam, decreasing in strengthwith distance. If a moving object, like a thrown ball, enters the device’stransmitted signal, the frequency of the reflected signal of the ball is changedor shifted This frequency change is proportional to the ball’s speed, and theSpeedTrac X sports radar’s internal circuits instantly process the return signalto display speed in your choice of either MPH or Km/H.

The SpeedTrac X sports radar’s projected signal is able topass, unaffected through certain materials, such as netting, wire mesh fencing,tarps or backdrops, and Plexiglas. This allows you to put a protective barrierbetween the moving target object and your SpeedTrac X sports radar, withoutaffecting speed measuring performance (a recommended precautionary procedure.)

ANGLE ERRORThe SpeedTrac X sports radardisplays the speed at which a target object moves in line with the unit’sprojected signal. A target passing at an angle through the signal will result ina displayed speed that is lower than the target’s true speed. As an example ofthe magnitude of error potential, a 10º entry angle reduces the actual speed byabout 2%. Objects traveling at 90º (perpendicular) to the signal may be ignoredby the SpeedTrac X (no speed displayed). SPEEDTRAC X SET-UP FORMAXIMUM ACCURACY AND REPEATABILITYMaximum accuracy and repeatabilityis obtained when the SpeedTrac X sports radar is positioned behind a net intowhich objects are thrown or struck into with the SpeedTrac being used as the“target”. Also, of importance is that the net in front of the SpeedTrac X sportsradar prevents the SpeedTrac from being struck by the thrown or struck object.Using the SpeedTrac in this manner allows speed measurement accuraciescomparable to the highest priced radar guns (+/- 1 MPH).

Distances shown above are approximations and distances mayvary slightly depending on size and characteristics of target
