  Diving.1.xxx
  WaterPolo.1.xxx
  PaceClock.1.xxx
  Synchro.1.xxx
  System6xxx = current version number If it has been truncated or changed in any way, please rename the file accordingly.With the System 6 sports timer turned on, place the disk with the successfully loaded sport module into the floppy disk drive.

Before installing the libraries, you must install SportLoader (v1.120 or greater). Failure to load the libraries will prevent new sport programs from running on USB enabled timers. To check to see if you have the compatibility libraries installed, look for the label “(w/ lib updates”) in the “Linux Version” section of the SportLoader Diagnostics screen. Click here to download the compatibility libraries
  When install the compatibility libraries, please make sure there are no other sport programs or copies of SportLoader on the USB drive. The libraries must be installed in isolation of all other updates.
