2  Basic Operation

Console Operation

The console face consists of a 2-line by 

16-character liquid crystal display (LCD) and an 

area for a sport-specific insert. Refer to 

Figure 3

. 

The standard keys and functions common to all 

sports are explained in 

Standard Keys (p� 5)

. All 

of the keys that pertain to a specific sport code 

insert are explained in detail in their respective 

sport section. 
Throughout this manual, the names or letters 

of keys on the keypad are enclosed in angle 

brackets (such as 

<ENTER*>

).

Sport Inserts

Sport inserts allow one console to control multiple sports. To use an insert, slide it into the 

opening on the bottom of the console until it stops. To remove a sport insert, pull on the 

tab that extends from the bottom of the console. 
If an insert is lost or damaged, a printed copy of the insert drawing from 

Appendix A

 may 

be used until a replacement can be ordered. 

A sport insert identifies the keys required for normal operation of a specific sport. In most 

cases, pressing a key immediately changes the scoreboard. Keys that require entry 

of additional information are marked by a dot (such as 

<SET TIME •>

). This additional 

information is usually a number followed by the 

<ENTER*>

 key.

Some keys are labeled 

+1

 or 

+2

. By pressing one of these keys once, the corresponding 

field on the scoreboard (such as score or period) “increments”, or increases, by one. A 

key with 

-1

 “decrements”, or decreases, by one.

On most inserts, certain keys have been grouped together in green (Home) or red 

(Guest). These keys are 

team

 keys and work the same for both teams. They affect the 

statistics only for that one team. Keys not under one of these color groups are 

game

 keys. 

They are general keys for the progress of the game (such as period or quarter).
Keys with arrows activate an indicator (possession, bonus, etc.) on the scoreboard. The 

direction of the arrow selects the appropriate team (left for home, right for guest).

Start Up
