When you run the MP-70/50 in Segment Mode, the
upper left side of the LCD screen displays the letters
SEG. On the LCD screen, an arrow points up if the
segment numbers count up, and points down if the
segment numbers count down.
Use the
+3
key to reverse the direction that the segments and/or breaks count.
The segments and breaks either:
Increment (Inc.), meaning that they count up (example: 1,2,3,4); or,
Decrement (Dec.) , meaning that they count down (example: 4,3,2,1).
Flip the TIME IN switch to start or stop the Segment Timer. When the
timer is off, the LCD will display the Time Out icon:
The Segment Number displays on the HOME SCORE of the scoreboard.
When the final five seconds of the Segment begins, the Segment Mode
displayed on the scoreboard will begin flashing rapidly. If your scoreboard is
equipped with a horn, at the end of a segment, the horn sounds once, for one
second.
