A rapidly growing number of elite events around the world has trust in the RACE RESULT Active System. It combines high precision and reliability with unique features like
tracking and store mode.
The unmatched combination of Decoder and Active Extension ensures a detection rate of 100 %. A simple wire loop is used to
detect transponders. It can be taped to the finish line or buried in the ground.

Using the Active Extension, your RACE RESULT Decoder supports the Active Transponders. Only a wire loop is needed as the antenna. It can be fixed on the ground using duct tape or attached to a mat. On race tracks, it can be installed in the channels designed for timing loops.
The stand-alone Loop Box is a revolutionary new way to collect split times. At nearby split timing points detections are repeated wirelessly to the main system. In case of remote timing points, the ActivePro Transponder saves the passing time and then transmits them when arriving at the finish.
The USB timing box is the handy alternative to the Active System. It is connected directly to the PC and does not need a Decoder. Thanks to the internal memory battery, 100 % reliable timing can still be maintained if the computer should fail. The USB Timing Box can be combined with loop boxes.
With the Track Box, you can provide tracking and timing with the same transponder. Track Boxes placed along the course or on race vehicles receive pings from all tracking-enabled transponders within a 50 m radius and transmit the data live online. You can then use this data to produce live tracking visualisation, and to publish an unprecedented amount of splits.
The Management Box is a key component of the tracking solution, as it is required to activate and deactivate tracking on the transponders, as well as to manage your Track Boxes.
It also allows you to easily check your inventory of transponders, to generate chip files and to set the transponders to Deep Sleep Mode.
Three options
The ActivePro and the MotorKart are high-end transponders with a 3D activation antenna, very high
precision and a revolutionary tracking feature. The ActiveBasic is the cost-efficient alternative with 1D activation
and less precision.
Flexibility
All transponders can be used in the same race (for example ActivePro for elite riders, ActiveBasic for amateurs).
3D activation antenna
The 3D activation antenna of the ActivePro ensures reliable detection in any orientation.
Precision
Because of the 3D antenna, the ActivePro offers a true 1/100th second precision
Battery lifetime
The ActivePro and MotorKart transponders can be set to deep sleep mode, which reduces the energy consumption and increases battery lifetime.

With Tracking Mode activated, the ActivePro V2 sends out a ping every second. RACE RESULT Track Boxes receive these signals and transmit them via mobile network to the timing server. This allows for better athlete tracking without the need for additional tracking devices. The Track Box is also the easiest way to set up split points in remote places.

The USB Timing Box enables you to setup your timing line in a split second! Directly connected to a computer, the USB Timing Box does not require a decoder. The USB Timing Box is used best to time sporting events, to scan tags at race pack pick-up, or for just about any other application. The open-source software of the USB Box allows you to develop any solution that may have nothing to do with sports timing.

RACE RESULT System firmware version 1.94 or higher recommended
For additional timing points you only need a stand-alone RACE RESULT Loop Box with loop cable to capture times.
Store Mode
The ActivePro V2 saves up to 64 split times in Store Mode and transmits them at the next timing system.
Repeat Mode
If the split point is within 500 meters of the main timing system, all
timing data is transmitted in real-time wirelessly from the Loop Box to the Active Extension.
The Repeat Mode is the smartest solution for triathlon transition zones.
