They design a digital bug that goes across it, triggers it correctly and records a Unique ID...... MRT have taken a Red PT, copied 95% of it (maybe more). They have taken MyLaps design to be able to make something to work on a MyLaps system, so in effect, they have copied it. Now, MyLaps have no need/requirement/social responsibility to support MRT. I doubt that MyLaps really see MRT as an issue or problem, simple as that.
I think people got to get it out of their minds that MyLaps are forcing MRT out, conspiracies etc, as really, if you look at it, MRT are the ones that copied MyLaps and are now falling foul of it. Maybe, as well as shouting at MyLaps to reduce their PT costs, we should do the same to MRT to support their product which is now being forced out of market??
But, as I say above, Mylaps is the original, MRT is a very good copy, but that is all it is, a Copy, I am sure if someone started selling a phone that operated on iPhone software without Apples authority, they would be in deep doo doo...
