CPO Timer 2 Photogate Clamps 2 Phone Cords AC Adapter What Is In The Case?
The Timer • Mode of Operation • A & B Inputs, Buttons, & Lights • Memory & Reset
The Photogate • The red status light indicates when the Photogate and the CPO Timer are properly connected
The Stopwatch Mode • Select the “Stopwatch” mode • The “A” button starts & stops the stopwatch • Who has the fastest reflexes?
The Interval Mode • The Interval mode can be used to measure the time through an individual Photogate or the time between two Photogates • Connect one of the Photogates to the timer • Select the “Interval” mode • Turn on just light “A” • This will measure the time through Photogate “A” • Pass your finger through the Photogate • Turn on just light “B” for time through just “B”
Interval Through A & B • Select “Interval” mode • Turn both the “A” & “B” lights on • Pass your finger through the Photogates
Interval Through A & B • The CPO Timer will also record the time trough just “A” & “B” simultaneously • Turn both lights off • Turn on just “A” & then just “B”
Frequency Mode • The CPO Timer determines frequency by using the Photogates or the Sound & Wave Machine • The CPO Timer records two different frequencies simultaneously
Period Mode • The CPO Timer determines period by using the Photogates or the Sound & Wave Machine • The Timer updates the period every other cycle • The CPO Timer can monitor two different periods simultaneously
Counter Mode • This mode counts every time the light beam is broken • The CPO Timer can monitor two different Photogates simultaneously
