UAC (user account control) setting will impact the program execution. You can either

disable it from user account or run this program as administrator.

System region and time setting

The Topigeon internal timer is using ISO date/timing system. The standard date/time

format is YYYY/MM/DD and HH/MM (24 hours system). No matter what location

you are, the formatting will remain the same. You have to customize your personal

computer accordingly. Please goes to the region setting on your personal computer’s

control panel and change the format accordingly, or the software will not response

correctly.

Coordinate data entry

V5 needs to preset in the system .ini file for the coordinate data format. Please find

longitude data.

TOPigeon V6 or you can use your smart phone for the coordinate information. All

member and race information, the coordination is not mandatory and can leave empty.

However, without coordinate data the result will not rank the score because it depends

on the speed to rank.

buttons to do most basic operation.

is also a shortcut key.

Time synchronization

The TOPigeon V5 has an internal clock. The time synchronizes with this club

software once you download the training or race information to the timer. Therefore,

the club software itself would be the club master timer.

Another major difference with V6 is V5 doesn’t equipped RF reader in the timer. If

you want to test your e-rings you have to connect to a landing board.

before connection, which V6 does not need. Once you connect to the landing board

please press MENU 3 +2 “Board Register”. If the board registered and connect

successfully, you will see the board status “NOR”(normal) -01 in the HOME page

(Main Menu).
