Start Systems – RadioLynx Wireless Start

The RadioLynx Wireless Start System replaces the 500’ start cable and allows operators to move more freely about the track. The system transmits the start signal using a wireless transmitter and receiver and integrates seamlessly with FinishLynx. It is extremely accurate—with precision greater than ±0.4 thousandths of a second. And thanks to built-in redundancy transmission, the wireless signal is reliable even in the event of a severe disturbance.

The RadioLynx wireless start system consists of a wireless transmitter and a receiver. Each unit is about the size of a deck of cards, which makes them easily portable and accessible during events. And the wireless transmission means you no longer need to worry about “spiked” or tangled start cables inside your venue.

RadioLynx has a wireless range of approximately 2 kilometers and will transmit secure, time-stamped start signals accurate to ± 0.4 thousandths of a second. Because every signal is time-stamped, RadioLynx ensures flawless start signals even if a transmission encounters outside interference. In the event of interference, RadioLynx allows wireless start signals to be sent multiple times; signals can even be re-sent minutes—or even hours—later to ensure critical start data is never lost.
