TM4/TM3e | Levelling Issue On Trackman

  • Updated

Fix for TM4 & TM3e (wireless radars) 

  • Pull the legs out
  • Power the radar ON and wait until it's ready
    • Do not have the radar armed in Shot Analysis when doing the next steps steps
  • Hold it vertically, in mid-air (not tilted – legs pointing down)
  • That should make the legs extend. Allow a minute or two for full extension
  • Power off the unit, and put the legs back in again
  • Restart as usual

If it doesn't work or the legs are stuck, try this:

  • Try to pull the legs out
  • Hold power button down for 10 seconds
  • This boots it into safe mode and will allow the unit to level (top light will blink green/red)
  • Leave it on the ground for a minute
  • Once level, turn power off
  • Wait 10 seconds and push the power button normally to restart as usual

Fix for TM2 & TM3 (with USB cable)

  • Connect the Trackman to your PC as normal (legs pulled out, etc.)
  • Lift it in the air and tilt it forth and back. Listen for any mechanical sound. Replace it on the ground

Still not working?

  • Open the TPS Software
  • Navigate to the LIVE or Hitting page
  • Place the Trackman face down on the ground (orange part facing the ground)
  • This will make the legs come forward (out)
  • Allow the legs to get longer than 3", which can take up to 5 minutes
  • Once both legs are longer than 3", flip it back to upright position where it will level out properly
  • Should this not work, please try another USB cable, as this is the first sign that the USB cable is broken
  • It's a very generic cable, often used between a PC and a printer. Can easily be replaced
  • The Trackman USB cable has a screw cap, but that cap is NOT mandatory for use. It just protects against water

Still not working?

  • Try another USB port on the PC and repeat the above steps

Still not working?

  • Open the TPS Software
  • Navigate to the LIVE or Hitting page
  • Place the Trackman face down on the ground (orange part facing the ground)
  • As the mechanic sounds, try to help the leg out with a very gentle pull (Please be careful!)
