ARP
(Accidental Release Protection):
- Occasionally, a racer will anticipate
the lights and let go too quickly, or become distracted and accidentally
release the transbrake button. ARP lets the racer recover from this situation.
By pressing the transbrake button back down, Dedenbear delay boxes will
instantly reset themselves and wait for the racer to properly let go. All
Dedenbear delay boxes have had this feature from the beginning.
- TRIP
PROTECTION:
- A unique preprogrammed feature
which prevents the transbrake from turning on if the transbrake switch is
accidentally bumped. Dedenbear delay boxes with this feature do not require
any "extra" switches because it is completely automatic. Covered
under US Patent Number 5,652,468
- CROSS-OVER
COMPENSATION:
- Cross-over racer's reaction
times are slower when they cross over because they only get a glancing view
of their opponent's bulb and their eyes aren't as quick at detecting the
tree turning on. Cross-Over Compensation allows the racer to preprogram
the time difference and compensate for it in cross-over mode by automatically
subtracting this compensation time from the total delay. This allows racers
to get the same reaction times from either side of the tree. Covered
under US Patent Number 5,652,468
- SLC
(Starting Line Control):
- Dedenbear delay boxes with this
feature will control a "linkage" type throttle stop in the carburetor
or injector linkage. When the transbrake is being held on the starting line,
the SLC feature closes the throttles down to a preset rpm. This limits
the amount of time the motor is run up against the ignition rev limiter.
The SLC will then open the throttles precisely at the top amber,
button release, or transbrake release allowing the motor to rev up against
the converter or ignition rev limiter. This is a separate output on our
delay boxes so a different throttle stop can be used on the throttle stop
timers if desired.
