Microgate Start Pad

The Microgate START PAD is a floor plate which is sensitive to pressure, and can be connected with all the Microgate timers by radio or cable. It is perfect for all those applications in which it difficult to use a photocell for receiving a start input. Depending on the settings on the timer, the Start Pad can be used as a normally open contact (the impulse is created when the touch pad contacts close) or normally closed contact (the impulse is created when the touch pad contacts reopen).

The pressure-sensitive Start Pad is ideally suited for measuring the start of run in tests and training sessions.
