The trailer is at Bobby's until the September 27th event at Neosho.
I will be up in Springfield for the board meeting on the 15th. If you don't have any cause to be down here, I can shuttle up the timer and photoheads then.

Actually guys I have the timing equipment right now, and need it myself for the testing of the large format display. I have been on vacation, but have left a message today with Chronomix to get the assistance needed to fix the display. They might get a hold of me today or it might take a couple of days for them to contact me so here is some info that might help you Stan.
If you have some device that can be configured to output 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, NO PARITY then it would be what you need to test the software. I have sent you a copy of the JACircuits book to the email address that you have listed on this site.JACircuits book wrote:COMPUTER PORT
A standard serial extension cable (not to be confused with a null modem cable) can be used to
communicate with a computer. The port labeled COMPUTER is a serial RS-232 input/output port.
It is configured to communicate at:
9600 baud
8 data bits, 1 stop bit
NO PARITY
It would be suggested that a reasonable size communication buffer be established in the software
as the timer does not buffer its output. NOTE: With the standard firmware, the same information is
sent over both the DISPLAY and the COMPUTER ports. With Chrono Mode firmware, additional
information is sent out the COMPUTER port
With the standard firmware, the computer port shares the same protocol that is used for the
DISPLAY port (Chronomix large format display protocol). See protocol for the display port.
With the Chrono Mode firmware, the computer port employs additional information that is not start
with Ç,where (80H) = Ç. See Chrono Mode Firmware section for additional information.
