CONNECTING THE P3ProSwing TO YOUR COMPUTER


Serial Port


USB Port

The P3ProSwing connects to the computer using the RS232 Serial port.

Some computers do not have a RS232 Serial port, but instead use a USB port for accessories like PDAs and digital cameras. If your computer is one of these you will need our USB-to-Serial conversion cable (PN 43111) to connect the P3ProSwing to your computer. This is a full spectrum converter which is required for data communication between the P3ProSwing and your computer.

Most likely you will not find a full spectrum serial port converter at your local electronic store that will function adequately with the P3ProSwing. We highly suggest that you get this proven converter. It is inexpensive and it is guaranteed.

To test your system for full motion graphics, you can download this program to your desktop. Then click on it to run. It will tell you if full motion graphics are available. Delete the program by dragging it to the trash when you are done.

Q: Does this include a projection system?
A: We offer several packages that include a projection system, which takes the P3ProSwing experience to a new level. If you already have an LCD, we offer a projection impact screen which also acts as the catch net. The sharp, crisp images are so real, it’s like you’re on the course - every day and without spending the time getting there or waiting to play (and with no lost balls…). You can also hook the projector up to your TV. The screen is available in our store .
^ back to top

Q: Could this be used at a driving range?
A: As long as it is powered and has access to a computer it can run at an outside driving range. Solid shade is required for outdoor use because the P3ProSwing uses infrared (or heat sensors) to measure your golf swing. We recommend solid shade that does not let the sun's heat waves through. It is the heat waves and odd shadows not the light that interferes with the P3ProSwing's sensor system.

Q: How is the hitting pad powered?
A: It is powered by a 5-volt DC power supply that is included. All you have to do is plug it in any wall socket.
^ back to top

Q: Is a net included?
A: Many customers already have a net. This is why we made the net an upgrade. We have a great net available in our store. A hitting mat to stand on is also available. We also offer a large projection screen, which can replace the net. The same amazing graphics are projected on the big screen, resulting in an experience comparable to being on the course (with instant swing analysis).

Q: What is the warranty on the system?
A: Our 90-day limited warranty covers all defects in material or workmanship. The warranty does not cover commercial use or misuse by the customer.
Additional warrany coverage can be purchased to cover the unit for an extended period of time. Extended warranty coverage is categorized for either retail/non-commercial customer or for commercial customers.
