The MP-72/73 and MP-52/53 can run Trans-Lux/Fair-Play scoreboards remotely.
Our controls allow you to keep up with sports timing and scoring demands that
require quickness and accuracy. Each cont
roller’s versatility makes it effective in
a wide variety of sports. Some common features of the MP-70/50 Series include:
Storage for up to six different sports and scoreboard configurations for
ease of operation and flexibility.
Hour countdown clock function allows some baseball scoreboards to
count down hours, not just minutes.
Jumping clock feature that allows 1/10th of a second to be displayed on
scoreboards in the last minute of the game. At that time, the seconds
“jump” to the left and the 1/10th seconds display on the right.
A memory circuit that retains game information in case of loss of power.
Easy-to-read, two-line LCD information display on the control that shows
time and other data by instant recall.
Changeable, sport-specific color-coded inserts that can be used for
various specific sports.
Automatic horn, to signify end of period or game, which can be turned on
or off.
Multiple time-out times offered for basketball.
Scoreboard lamp TEST mode for ease of scoreboard service.
Both the MP-70 and MP-50 are operated in identical fashion, but the MP-70
includes more features than the MP-50. The differences between the two
products are discussed in more detail in the following section.
