Dolphin Wireless Stopwatch Swim Timing

Dolphin is a proven wireless swimming stopwatch timing system.

Dolphin provides wireless swimming stopwatch-style timing for swimming competitions. It significantly reduces the amount of effort required to run a meet and manage data. By transferring all timing data wirelessly, the system has improved accuracy compared to manual swimming stopwatches.

Effective April 13, 2023 - From USA Swimming, "The Colorado Time Systems Wireless Dolphin Timing was previously allowed, under a waiver granted by the USA Swimming Rules & Regulations Committee, to be used in USA Swimming-sanctioned competition; that limited waiver has since expired. However, effective April 13, wireless systems such as the Dolphin may be used as semi-automatic timing systems to conduct a USA Swimming-sanctioned competition." Learn more in the USA Swimming Rulebook.

Three modes of operation:

• Semi-Automatic Timing (Synchronized Start/Manual Stop):  Connect the starter unit to any CTS electronic start system. All stopwatches will start timing with the start system signal. Each stopwatch stops when the lane timer stops it. These times are wirelessly transmitted and saved for immediate access by your meet management program.
• Manual Synchronized Start/Manual Stop:  The official with the starter unit starts all stopwatches in conjunction with the whistle. Each stopwatch stops when the lane timer stops it.
• Manual Start/Manual Stop:  This mode is used for collecting backup times at major swimming events, and is compliant with all swimming ruling bodies’ (World Aquatics, NCAA, USS, NFHS, YMCA) requirements for backup swim timing. Lane timers start and stop the stopwatches independently for a fully manual system.

In all three operation modes, finish times are wirelessly transmitted and recorded.
