For use with a DS 6-lane timing and scoring system consisting of a DS300, DS334, and DS356. Comes with all wiring and plugs needed to connect to all 3 modules. Can also be used with a 2 or 4-lane system so if you are starting with a 2-lane system and plan to expand to 6 lanes this is the light bridge to buy.
Using DS light bridges with a PC-based timing and scoring system:
DS light bridges are durable and reliable sensor devices. Theoretically they can be used with any kind of timing and scoring system provided you have the means of connecting them properly. They come with an industry-standard plug and are pre-wired to route all the input to the right place in a DS lap counter/timer unit. Provided that you have the means to determine which pin carries what on the DS light bridge's plug and can connect it to your PC-based system properly, it should work fine, as it functions the same as a sensor assembly you might build up from individual components. Always check to see if voltage in the system you are using is in the correct range for any DS components you are using. They will usually work fine on 10 to 14 volts. Be careful, however, as a wrong connection can damage the light bridge, and neither Electric Dreams nor DS can guarantee the reliability of any DS item used with with any other system.
