Below is a constantly growing list of timing hardware which are fully supported by the BBT timing software. Please contact us if your timing device is not on the list, as we are happy to see if it can be added.
  
-Please note that the list is constantly growing as our software supports an increasing number of timing units. If your timing unis is not on the list we are happy to see if it can be added. +|                        ^ Type  ^ Sync  ^ Replay ^ Remote  ^ Gun/impulse  ^ Notes ^
