MX TIMING SYSTEM
................................................................................................................................................................................................
Eliminate Arguments about Race Results
Motocross and quad races are fast-paced and hand scoring them can be a nightmare. Rider numbers are often tough to read, and scorers can easily make a mistake counting laps for each of the riders on the track. The AMB MX transponder-based timing and scoring system provides tracks and race organizations with professional-level results with minimal effort at an affordable price. In addition to accurate results, the AMB MX system provides racers with race data such as individual laptimes, lap charts and more. Since the system is simple to setup and operate, only one or two scorers are needed to manage the scoring for the entire event. The system keeps track of results live during the race, which can be sent simultaneously to scoreboards, TV crews and monitors in the pits. Final results are ready for print immediately following the race.
Setup and operation of the AMB MX motocross timing system is quick and easy. The system is designed to manage bikes with riders from multiple classes, and quickly combines points earned in bikes for semi and main event races. The system even loads race results, laptimes and more to the Internet results site: Mylaps.com.
AMB timing systems are currently relied on by: FIM Motocross, AMA Supercross/Arenacross, World Snowmobile Association, MoNederland, Manitoba Motocross, and thousands of others.
A basic system comprises:
1 x mx3 decoder
1 x Detection Loop
1 x Race Software
AMBmx3 Decoder
Developed specifically for the motocross/quad market, the mx3 Decoder receives the transponder information (known as passings) from the track, which in turn sends the data to a timing computer. Compact and portable, the decoder is easily moved from track to track throughout your race season.
Detection Loop
The detection loop picks up transponders as they pass over it. Once an AMB detection loop has been installed at the start/finish line, race day setup is as simple as attaching a coaxial cable to the mx3 Decoder and turning on the computer. The AMB MX system is designed for tracks up to 20 meters (65ft) wide.
Race Software - Orbits Version 2
Orbits 2 combines powerful timing features with a simple user interface. The software offers many features, each of which is easy to use. It even stores your track records.
Orbits’ competitor database stores information about your racers including their Personal Transponder number. Once entered, registering a competitor for the next race is just a matter of using the mouse to drag them into the race in which they’ll participate. Orbits also offers several import options using standard text files or competitors exported from previous Track Timing programs such as Orbits 1 and ChronX. Each class of racers is color-coded with a different helmet for quick identification.
Timing
The Timing Screen for Orbits 2 presents race data in several formats depending on your timing needs. Each racer’s passings are listed in order of receipt for a complete record of the race’s action. It clearly identifies passings under different race conditions including warmup, green, yellow, red and pitstops. Lapcharts along the bottom display the bike numbers to provide a concise list of each lap’s order of passing while also indicating those racers who are lap(s) down. The live official results can be tailored to show as much or as little data as you wish.
Results Processing
With racers and fans wanting laptimes and results online, Orbits 2 makes this easy with no web design skills necessary. Results can also be shown on your own web site.
The software has several options for merging results of races to generate the lineup for semi-final or main events. Also add your own logos to its fully customizable print templates with adjustable columns and font sizes or export text files.
