Managing a swim meet requires clear communication, accurate event tracking, and highly visible displays that can be seen throughout the entire facility. The DC-806S-W-SWIM-MEET was designed specifically to provide swim facilities with a simple and reliable way to display current events and heat numbers while also functioning as a full-featured time-of-day clock during normal operation.

This custom wireless display system combines large 8-inch LED digits, outdoor durability, and easy wireless control into one highly functional unit that can be used at indoor and outdoor aquatic facilities alike. Whether mounted at a community pool, school natatorium, university aquatic center, or competition venue, the display provides excellent visibility and operational flexibility for both staff and spectators.

Under normal operation, the DC-806S-W-SWIM-MEET functions as a highly visible time-of-day clock displaying hours, minutes, and seconds. The bright sunlight-resistant LED digits are designed for long-distance readability with visibility exceeding 400 feet, making the display easy to read from nearly anywhere around the pool deck or spectator seating area.

When swim meet events begin, operators can instantly transition the display into Event and Heat mode using the included wireless handheld controller. This allows meet personnel to quickly update race information without needing to physically access the display itself.

The included 2.4 GHz wireless controller provides more than 150 feet of operating range, allowing staff members to manage the display from multiple locations around the facility. Whether positioned at the scorer’s table, concession stand, timing area, or poolside, operators can easily control the display while remaining focused on event management responsibilities.

The remote control layout was designed for simplicity and fast operation during live events. Dedicated controls allow users to:

• Increase or decrease Event numbers
• Increase or decrease Heat numbers
• Reset Event values to zero
• Reset Heat values to zero
• Switch between Clock mode and Event/Heat mode
• Set hours and minutes for time-of-day operation
• Reset seconds during clock setup

This straightforward control system helps reduce confusion during fast-paced competitions while keeping event information accurate and current for swimmers, coaches, officials, and spectators.

The enclosure itself is built using an all-aluminum extruded housing that is designed for outdoor-rated operation. This rugged construction provides long-term durability in demanding pool environments where humidity, sunlight exposure, and changing weather conditions are common concerns.

The sunlight-resistant LED technology further improves outdoor readability and helps maintain clear visibility even during bright daytime conditions. Combined with the large 8-inch digits, the display remains highly legible across large pool areas and spectator sections.

One of the biggest advantages of the DC-806S-W-SWIM-MEET is its dual-purpose functionality. Instead of installing separate equipment for time display and swim meet event management, facilities can utilize one centralized display solution for both daily operation and competitive events. During periods without swim meets, the unit continues serving as a full time-of-day clock, maximizing usefulness year-round.

Key features of the DC-806S-W-SWIM-MEET include:

• Six-digit 8-inch LED display
• Wireless Event and Heat indication
• Time-of-day clock functionality
• 150+ foot wireless remote range
• 400+ foot viewing distance
• Outdoor-rated aluminum enclosure
• Sunlight-resistant LED digits
• Simple wireless operation
• Easy event management controls
• 110 Volt operation

This custom swim meet display system is ideal for facilities seeking a professional and highly visible event management solution that is easy to operate and built for long-term reliability. The combination of wireless convenience, large-format visibility, and durable construction makes the DC-806S-W-SWIM-MEET an excellent addition to aquatic facilities that host competitive swimming events while also needing dependable everyday time display functionality.
