2.1 Overview
The SEIKO Sports Printer CT-2000 Ⅱ is a multi-purpose printer/timer that can be used forvarious sports events requiring timing such as track and road running races, swimming, ski andskate.

2.2 Features Being equipped with various measurement modes, CT-2000Ⅱ can be used for timing of all
types of sports events.
 Timing down to 1/1,000 of a second is possible.
The method of calculating the fraction of a second can be selected from 10 types including
rounding up, rounding down and rounding off, thus making it possible to comply with various
timing rules adopted in different sports events.
 A large-sized LCD monitor is used to make it easier to check various types of information
displayed on it. (20 characters x 4 lines) The design of the grip switch is renewed so that it better fits into your palm and provides easierswitch operation.
 If the dry batteries are installed when CT-2000Ⅱ is powered by AC adapter, the power source
can be quickly switched over to the batteries in case of failure of AC power supply, to ensure
constant operation. *1
 Two sets of dry batteries (6 AA size cells per set) can be installed in the main body, and thepower source is switched over automatically between them. By replacing the unused set of dry
batteries with new ones, CT-2000Ⅱ can be powered by the dry batteries continuously for along time.*1
 Rechargeable batteries can be used in place of alkaline dry batteries.*1
 CT-2000Ⅱ can also be powered by external battery (DC11V～DC14V)*1
 The Auto Measurement Mode enables the measurement during individual practices performed
alone.
・ Reaction time (start reaction time: time after the start signal until swimmer’s feet have left thestarting block), lap time, and split time can be measured during swimming practices.
・ Lap time and split time can be measured during practices of speed skating, track, and otherraces.*2
・ By outputting a signal to an external buzzer device, CT-2000Ⅱ can control the device togenerate a starting sound automatically.*2
 Even if the actual start time has differed from the scheduled time, the Time Correction Mode
(inputting time difference from start time) corrects the scheduled start time set in advance in thesecondary CT-2000Ⅱ units, enabling them to synchronize with the master CT-2000Ⅱ unit.
 The Speed Measurement Mode measures the average speed over a given section of the entire
distance.*2
 CT-2000Ⅱ can be connected with a personal computer via USB interface.
 Two types of time signals (RS-422) are output to the scoreboard (with or without running timedata).
 A synchronization signal can be output to external devices.
 As CT-2000 Ⅱ is compatible with CT-1000, CT-2000, the grip switches, extension unit,
synchronization cables, and cables to connect with scoreboard used previously with CT-1000,
CT-2000 can also be used with CT-2000Ⅱ (with the exception of a cable used to connect witha personal computer).
*1: Dry batteries, rechargeable batteries and external battery are not included with CT-2000Ⅱ,
and they should be purchased separately if required.
*2: Optional device is required.

2.3 Lap Time and Split TimeLap time: Time required to go a given section of theentire distance.

Split time: Time required to go from the start to any
given point of the entire distance.

2.5 How to Open the Case
Unlock the two locks and open the case.

2.6 Power Supply CT-2000 Ⅱ can be supplied with the power from two sources. One is the power source
connected to @@@@@ (AC adapter or external battery), and the other is either of the two
sets of dry batteries.
 For external battery, use 11~14 V DC battery only.
 Rechargeable batteries can be used in place of alkaline dry batteries.
 When all types of power sources are available, the one connected to @@@@@ will be used.
 When CT-2000 Ⅱ is powered by the dry batteries, the LED lamp above the battery
compartment of the batteries in use lights up.
 When replacing the dry batteries with new ones, be sure to replace those in the battery
compartment whose LED lamp stays out.
 When the battery power of both sets of dry batteries has reduced to a low level, both sets areused at the same time.
In that case, the LEDs of both battery compartments light up. Replace the batteries with newones set by set.

CAUTIONInstall the dry batteries properly, checking that their (+) and (-)
terminals are properly aligned. A malfunction or failure may
result.
Do not use dry batteries of different types together. Otherwise,
heat generation or electrolyte leakage of the batteries may result
and cause damage to the Product.
Do not use old and new dry batteries together. Otherwise, heatgeneration or electrolyte leakage of the batteries may result andcause damage to the Product.
Use only dry batteries of the same make, type and size.
Otherwise, heat generation or electrolyte leakage of thebatteries may result and cause damage to the Product.
Use the dry batteries only within their specified operationaltemperature range. The alkaline dry batteries, in particular,
should never be used in cold temperatures below the specified
range. Otherwise, they may not perform as specified, and amalfunction of the Product may result.
If you decide not to use the Product for a long time, take out thedry batteries. Otherwise, heat generation or electrolyte leakageof the batteries may result and cause damage to the Product.

When an external battery is used, use 11~14 V DC battery only.
A malfunction, fire or personal injury may result.

5. MEASUREMENT MODE
5.1 Counting Mode (Measurement Mode No. 1)
5.1.1 Features
 This measurement mode is suitable for such sports events as track races, marathon, cycle
road races, and Nordic ski races.
 Order of arrival and split time are printed out each time a measurement is made from thestart to the finish.
 Order of arrival is printed out from 0001 to 9999, but the measurement can be continued
after the arrival of the 9,999th racer with the order of arrival being counted from 0000 (9999→ 0000 → 0001 → 0002).
 Order of arrival is printed out from 0001 in order of signal input irrespective of the channel
through which the signal is input. It is possible, therefore, for one timekeeper to have two
grip switches, one in each hand, and input signals arbitrarily from either of them.
 By using an input extension unit, up to 10 CH signals can be input.* Running time (time elapsed from the start) and split time measured can be displayed on thescoreboard (ST-306, etc.).** Input extension unit and scoreboard are available as options.

Ⅱ5.1.2 Operating Method① Start the timer.

 This function is available in the following measurement modes:
・ Counting Mode (Measurement Mode No. 1)・ Parallel Counting Mode (Measurement Mode No. 2)・ Parallel Lap/Split Time Measurement Mode (Measurement Mode No. 3）
・ Time Correction Mode (inputting time difference from the start time) (Measurement Mode No.
5）* For the synchronization in Time Correction Mode (inputting time difference from start time), refer
to【5.5 Time Correction Mode 】on P. 30.
* Up to 10 units of CT-2000Ⅱ can be synchronized with each output of a sync signal.

6.7.1 Method of Synchronization via Start Signal① Set the start time.
Set the same start time on all the units of CT-2000Ⅱ.
② Connect all the units of CT-2000Ⅱ with sync cables.
Before inputting a start signal, connect all the units of CT-2000Ⅱ with sync cables asshown below.
Sync cable・・・
MasterSecondary-1

Secondary-2

Secondary-10③ Input a start signal into Master unit.
The start signal input into Master unit is output from SYNC connector to synchronize all
Secondary units.

6.7.2 Method of Synchronization after Start* Select [Per minute] for the interval between each sync signal output.
For the setting procedure, refer to【4.3 Measurement Mode Setting】on P. 19.
Ex.) To perform synchronization 5 minutes after start① Set the start time of Secondary units.
Set the start time of Secondary units to[00:05:00].

6.8 PC DATA (Output of Data to Personal Computer) By connecting a personal computer to PC DATA connector using a USB cable, themeasurement data can be output to the personal computer.
 Use a cable that supports USB 2.0.
* USB cable is an option sold separately.
 CT-2000Ⅱ has a USB Type B connector.
 CT-2000Ⅱ uses an FTDI USB-serial converter IC, and it is necessary to install a driver on thePC.
Download, from the FTDI website below, Virtual COM Port Driver (VCP) that supports the OSof the PC, and check that it is installed properly on the PC.
http://www.ftdichip.com/
 The measurement data is output to the PC when it is measured or reprinted.
