CONTROLS The following is an explanation of the TimeMaster controls:A) ON/OFF SENSITIVITY: Turn knob clockwise to turn on unit power. As knob is turned clockwise the TimeMaster becomes more sensitive to weak piezo signals. Generally speaking the knob should be at about 1/2 when using drum sticks. and 3/4 when using brushes. Turning this knob completely counterclockwise until you hear a click will shut off the unit and reset the timing mechanism. B) RESET: This clears the LED displays. This does not restart the unit. C) Plug Morley 9VDC 300 mA regulated adapter here. D) SENSOR IN: Plug conditioner 1/4 stereo jack to this jack. E) TRIGGER OUT: Use this jack to assist in setting sensitivity or to hook up additional TimeMasters in series. Puts out a 45ms negative square wave pulse which differs from a standard piezo signal pulse. F) LED DISPLAYS: Reads out a 3 digit beats per minute. 3 dots located at the bottom right corner of each digit light each time a signal is sensed. Use those 3 LEDs to assist in setting sensitivity. AC ADAPTER Use a 9VDC 300 milliamp regulated adapter only. Using a non- regulated adapter could result in poor performance and/or inaccurate readings.BATTERY The TimeMaster is designed to use one 9 volt battery when not using an adapter (preferred). We suggest you use a good quality alkaline battery. Battery life is approximately 4 hours. To prolong battery life, turn TimeMaster unit off when not in use. When not used for extended periods, we recommend you remove the battery or replace it every six months to prevent leakage problems. BATTERY REPLACEMENT When the battery becomes weak, the LED displays will become weak and the accuracy of the readout will be affected. Remove the battery door located on the bottom of the TimeMaster unit (a short cord is attached to the door to help prevent loss). Once the door is off, the old battery can be removed from the battery snap and a new battery plugged in. Make sure the polarity (+/-) is correct before inserting the new battery. When you replace the battery door , you will notice it fits very tightly against the battery. This prevents the battery from rattling inside the unit.
