ChronoTimer — Pro Countdown & Count-Up for Digital Scoreboards
ChronoTimer is our professional timing module for digital scoreboards. It delivers big, daylight-bright digits and simple, reliable controls so operators can show time remaining or elapsed at a glance. From practice intervals to race finishes and ceremony cues, ChronoTimer keeps teams, crews, and audiences perfectly in sync.
Built for both indoor and outdoor venues, ChronoTimer integrates cleanly with your digital scoreboard setup and scales from small courts to wide fan zones without adding complexity for staff.
What ChronoTimer Does
ChronoTimer renders a large-digit clock on your LED scoreboard and switches instantly between countdown and count-up (elapsed time). It includes a zero-time horn, quick presets, and tap-simple controls so the person on the console can run timing without leaving the flow of the event.
Use ChronoTimer as a standalone race clock, as the master practice timer on your board, or as the cue timer during presentations and auctions. One module covers the most common timing needs you face across seasons.
Why Choose ChronoTimer
When visibility and accuracy matter, you need a clock that can be read from distance and operated in seconds. ChronoTimer meets the expectations crews have at finish lines and courts while staying friendly for volunteers.
You get stadium-style readability, dependable end-of-period signaling, and zero learning curve, all inside your existing digital scoreboard workflow.
Core Features
ChronoTimer focuses on the features operators actually use on show day. The result is a faster setup, cleaner handoffs, and fewer mid-event adjustments.
- Large, high-brightness LED numerals sized for clear viewing across courts, fields, and plazas
- Count-down, count-up, and stopwatch modes with instant switching
- Preset memories for repeated intervals, heats, rounds, or ceremony segments
- End-of-timer horn for an unmistakable zero cue
- AC or battery power paths inside our mobile setups; fixed power for installed boards
- Tripod, truss, or embedded scoreboard placement with tidy cable runs
Every control maps to a single tap or button press. You can start, pause, reset, or swap modes without menu diving or re-programming the clock between segments.
Where ChronoTimer Shines
ChronoTimer adapts to the pace of your program. If you run varied events on the same LED board, this timing module keeps the clock highly visible, mode changes instant, and transitions on schedule.
It’s engineered for long-range readability, fast operator control, and a clear end-of-period cue that cuts through crowd noise.
Races and finish lines
Use ChronoTimer as both the pre-race countdown and the finish-line clock. Operators cue a visible countdown to the start, then switch to elapsed time the moment the race begins no re-programming, just a single action that keeps athletes, crews, and spectators aligned.
Large LED digits remain legible from distance on streets, tracks, or trailheads, so runners can spot the clock as they approach, and announcers can call times cleanly. For multi-lap or long-course events, a secondary display can mirror the primary time at splits or turnarounds while the main clock anchors the finish chute.
Team practices and gyms
For drills, circuits, and scrimmages, ChronoTimer simplifies interval blocks. Coaches preload work and rest presets, trigger a countdown with one tap, and get an unmistakable horn at zero so players hear the switch without taking eyes off the play.
Between segments, the operator can advance to the next preset or flip to count-up to capture total session time. Bright digits are easy to read across courts and weight rooms, and the clock’s instant start/stop keeps pace with fast substitutions, timeouts, and rotation changes.
Ceremonies and live shows
ChronoTimer gives producers a simple, high-impact way to manage cues in public settings. Display a large, shared countdown for speakers, auction lots, reveals, or launch moments so stage managers, talent, and the audience all follow the same clock.
When the timer hits zero, the audible cue and on-screen change provide a crisp, shared signal to roll the next element. Because the module sits inside your digital scoreboard workflow, you can interleave sponsor slides or announcements between countdown segments and return to the timer instantly when the program resumes.
Anytime you need a bold, unmissable clock and a reliable signal at zero, ChronoTimer provides both without extra training, hardware swaps, or complicated control screens.
Setup and Operation
We keep deployment simple so you can focus on the show. Tell us your viewing distance and layout; we size digits, confirm mounting, and plan power and audio.
- Size and placement: We set digit height and elevation for clean sightlines
- Power and signal: house power or our supply; we test end-to-end before doors
- Live operation: our tech runs start/stop, presets, and horn, or we train your team
- Strike and restore: we wrap quickly and return the site to its original condition
From first test to final whistle, your timer stays bright, stable, and perfectly synced with the rest of your digital scoreboard content.
Light Specs Snapshot
Specifications vary by venue and board, but these guidelines cover most installations and mobile shows.
- Digit class: typically 6–8 inch numerals for long-range readability
- Modes: countdown, count-up, stopwatch; preset memory slots
- Alert: integrated horn/buzzer at zero with visual confirmation
- Power: AC primary; portable systems include battery runtime plans
- Mounting: embedded on the board, truss-mounted, or tripod for field setups
If your venue needs extra reach or brightness, we can step up digit size or add a secondary remote-view clock for long courses and wide venues.
Add-Ons and Options
Enhance the experience with a few practical extras that keep fans engaged and crews organized.
- Secondary repeater clock for long courses or opposite sidelines
- Sponsor splash or simple message between intervals
- Wired foot-switch for hands-free starts on the field
- Wind and weather kit for exposed outdoor placements
Each option drops into the same control flow, so the operator still has just a few clear buttons and a reliable zero cue.
