What is the TSA? ...Time; Speed; Acceleration

TSA is much; much more than just another Timer. TSA is a microprocessor based; stand alone unit. It is a very versatile instrument having the following modes of operation.

• Time Interval (4)
• Event times (8)
• Speed (4)
• Acceleration Data
• Accelerations (2)
• A fast timer (8) - for times <10;000us the resolution is 1us
• A Gap Timer (1)

The TSA embraces touch screen technology making it faster and easier to operate. It has been redesigned to give it a smart look and it retains all the features which make it the ideal tool for lab measurements in kinematics.

The Acceleration Data mode displays two velocities and the time interval been the velocities. Students can use this information to calculate the acceleration. Once the concept has been developed students can then switch to using the Acceleration mode to explore and investigate their world without having to do the calculation every time.

The TSA has a whole range of accessories available to extend the capabilities of the timing device in the classroom.

The available range of accessories includes:

• TSA Light Bridge
• TSA Reaction Timer Switches
• TSA Sound Switches (for hands and feet)
