Retrieving Data from your TM Reader

You may need to download the logged tag reads (raw or filtered data files) directly from the reader’s MicroSD card in certain circumstances (for example, your timing computer was not communicating with the reader while timing an event or you are using the reader as a remote split point which is not connected via a network).

*The reader will not log any tag reads while connected to your computer using the MicroUSB cable.

1. Move the data switch into the downward position.
2. plug the included purple MicroUSB cable into your computer USB port and connect to your reader via the Micro USB Socket .
3. Browse for the newly detected “Removable Disk” and look for the text file called “filtered.log” or “raw”.log
4. Copy this to your computer’s C: Drive (NB: do not copy to a directory, it must go straight to your C: Drive otherwise your timing software may not be able to map to it.
5. You now import the “filtered.log” file directly into your timing software (your timing software will have instructions on how to do this)

!You must SAFELY Eject the “Removable Disk Drive” created by the TM Reader prior to unplugging the USB cable. This can be done by right clicking the drive and selecting EJECT or via the USB icon in your task bar. Once you physically remove the Micro USB from the TM reader, the TM reader will restart automatically.
