Trade In: Your Existing EtherLynx Camera
Receive: Trade-In Credit & Free Internal Battery
As part of the 2023 US Summer Promotion, we are offering a generous EtherLynx camera trade-in program to encourage the adoption of our Vision Camera technology. You can trade-in your existing EtherLynx camera (of any age or condition) and receive a trade-in credit towards the purchase of a new EtherLynx Vision color camera with EasyAlign mode. During the Summer Promotion, you’ll also receive a free Internal Battery Backup Add-On with your new Vision.
When applicable, the Timer-Enabled Option (5LTE) and High Resolution Option (5LHR) will transfer to the new Vision Camera at 100% of their values. For example, a timer-enabled EtherLynx 2000+ with High Resolution (2,000 fps @ 1,000 pixels) will be traded for a timer-enabled Vision with High Resolution (2,000 fps @ 1,280 pixels). Other optional Vision add-ons like LuxBoost or Electronic Filter Control can be added for an additional cost at the time of purchase.

When you purchase an IdentiLynx camera package this summer, you’ll also receive free standard shipping with your order. IdentiLynx is an Ethernet-based digital video camera that captures full-frame video and integrates it with the photo-finish captures inside FinishLynx.
IdentiLynx video is time-synchronized with your FinishLynx capture so you can select anywhere in the photo-finish image and watch the head-on video jump to precisely the same moment in time. You can also advance and rewind the video one frame at a time to easily identify athletes from bib numbers or team affiliation.
IdentiLynx Packages Include:
- IdentiLynx Full-Frame Video Camera

| LuxBoost | LuxBoost amplifies available light for better photo-finish images in low-light conditions (See a sample image). Requires a Vision or Vision PRO Camera. | $995 |
| Video Display Module | The Video Display Module (VDM) enables the live display of Lynx running time, results, and images on a video display connected to the HDMI port of Vision cameras. Connect a compatible display to the camera back and instantly show live results. View Demo Video. Requires a Vision or Vision PRO camera. | $595 |
| Timing | Add the Timing option to an existing non-Timer Enabled reverse angle/alternate finish line camera. This not only allows it to function as a backup to your primary camera, but also run as a separate, fully independent system by adding a separate start system. | $3,495 |

EtherLynx Camera Trade-In Program
Want to upgrade to a new Vision camera instead? Trade in your existing EtherLynx camera for a trade-in credit towards the purchase of a new full-color Vision camera with EasyAlign, Power-over-Ethernet, and several other new features. View the Camera Trade-In Section for more info.
Purchase: A LaserLynx EDM Device
Receive: Free FieldLynx LITE License
Electronic distance measurement devices have long been considered too cost prohibitive for many track programs. We are excited to offer a great price on the LaserLynx EDM system: $3,295. LaserLynx is a laser-based electronic distance measurement device that produces accurate, computer-generated measurements for field events (Shotput, Javelin, Discus, Hammer, Long Jump, Triple Jump). LaserLynx can be used with FieldLynx LITE for fast measurement/scoring calculations, or combined with the full FieldLynx software to integrate measurements across the network with meet management databases, scoreboards, and announcer applications. When you purchase a new LaserLynx unit as part of the Summer Promotion, you’ll also receive a free FieldLynx LITE software license.
Add LaserLynx Distance Measurement
Summer Promotion Bonus – FieldLynx LITE Software
FieldLynx LITE allows officials to measure horizontal jumps, vertical jumps, and throwing events at track meets. LaserLynx EDM lasers will interface with FieldLynx LITE, which can in turn connect to a wind gauge and/or compatible scoreboard. Unlike the full version of FieldLynx, FieldLynx LITE does not integrate with meet management databases. Instead, it allows officials to capture and display electronic distance measurements in real-time directly from a netbook. FieldLynx LITE comes complete with the following plug-ins:
- LaserLynx Plug-in: For laser measurement of horizontal jumps and throwing events
- Scoreboard Plug-in: For displaying real-time event data on a connected scoreboard
- Wind Gauge Plug-in: For managing wind readings for horizontal jump events

Free Bonus
When you Purchase a Camera Upgrade or Extended Warranty During the Summer Promotion
When you send in your camera for an upgrade, it will also receive a professional Service & Recertification. Our technicians will complete a 25-point checklist to ensure that your camera is working flawlessly, testing key components and replacing them when necessary. The service includes running each camera for a full 24-hour diagnostic test period, performing a Zero Gun Test as described by World Athletics, and renewing the Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator that controls the timing functionality.
Upon completion, Lynx will attach a new Certificate of Compliance, save the calibration date in the camera’s memory (to be displayed in FinishLynx), and update your records with a new certificate of accuracy. The Service & Recertification process is normally valued at $425, but it is free when you purchase an applicable upgrade during this year’s Summer Promotion.
