RACE TIMING TAG

Frequently asked questions

What is a race timing tag used for?

A race timing tag is an RFID tag used to record each participant automatically as they cross a timing point, removing manual stopwatch entry. The Identium race timing solution is used for marathons, cycling events, and school and corporate races across India, where hundreds of participants have to be timed accurately.

What is the range of this race timing system?

The Identium race timing unit has a listed range of about 30 to 40 feet, which is enough to cover a start or finish line and capture participants as they pass at speed. Actual coverage depends on antenna placement, mounting height and the layout of the timing point.

Does the race timing unit need a power supply at the venue?

The Identium race timing unit is battery operated, so it can be set up at outdoor start, split and finish points without a mains connection. It works in temperatures from -20°C to 50°C, covering Indian outdoor race conditions from cool early-morning starts to hot summer city runs.

Can I get race timing tags for my event in India?

Yes. India RFID Store supplies race timing tags and complete event timing packages across India as a BIS and WPC certified Indian manufacturer. Pricing depends on participant numbers and the number of timing points, so check the listed price or send your event details for a bulk quotation.
