Question:

How do I set up my Amicus Professional robot to do a drill for a certain period of time, like one minute?

Answer:

This Ask the Experts question was answered by Larry Thoman. He is a Table Tennis Robot Guru. Larry’s response is below:

Allister, The only timer on the Professional is when using Cycle Mode. Cycle Mode automatically alternates Play and Pause periods until you press the Stop/Stop button. Play periods are limited to 20, 40, 60, or 80 seconds. The Pause period will be half of the Play period, so 10, 20, 30, or 40 seconds, respectively. If you want the robot to throw balls for 1 minute, then you can turn on Cycle Mode, set it for 60 seconds, then press Start. It will throw balls for 60 seconds and then stop. At that point you can press Stop, which stops the drill, or wait 30 seconds and the drill will begin again for another 60 seconds. Thanks. Larry
