Overview
The Brunswick Sync scoring system consists of several pieces of equipment that can be divided into
two subsystems; the Scoring System and the center network system.
The scoring system consists of electronic assemblies located in the bowler and pinsetter areas. These
assemblies control the pinsetter, perform automatic scoring functions, provide the bowler with input
capabilities, and display information about the game in progress.
The scoring system is available with keypads or tablets and overhead monitors. A peripheral controller
interfaces the bowler keypads or tablets and a display controller supplies video for the overhead
monitors. Additional equipment such as Pin Cameras or GS pinsetters and automated bumpers are
connected to the peripheral controller as needed.
The center network system consists of one or more computers located at the control desk and as needed
various other locations around the bowling center. The main function of center management system
is to provide the bowling center personnel convenient control of the scoring system and lanes from the
control desk as well as point-of-sale (POS) terminals for other areas of the center.
SYNC TABLET
Sync tablet is the top of the line scoring system in Sync. This system offers a lower touchscreen
monitor and overhead monitors. Sync Tablet offers the convenience of touchscreen entry that can be
free standing or integrated with Brunswick furniture in a table mount conguration. This offers the
customer a full range of audio and video functionality of our Center Network systems. This system also
allows the bowler the full bowler interface for name entry, score correction, and other special functions.

8Sync Pre-Installation
BOWLER’S KEYPAD
This system consists of the overhead monitor and a keyboard console. This system gives the customer
the ability of the Sync scorer. The system enables bowler interface into the system. This includes name
entry, score correction, and the menu options. Like Bowler’s Touchscreen, Bowler’s Keypad is offered
in both free standing and table mount congurations.
IMPORTANT!: There are two types of bowler’s keypads compatible with Sync. The
Sync keypad and the Vector keypad, Vector touchscreen is NOT compatible with Sync.
SYNC
Sync is Brunswick’s versatile center management system. The system is a network of Windows based
PCs (clients) tied to a single server PC. The server is normally located in the ofce. In some instances
(when an ofce computer is not needed for example), the server can be located at the Control Desk and
utilized as a Control Desk terminal.
Clients are used for Control Desk, snack bar, bar, pro shop, and billiards terminals, or any place a point-
of-sale (POS) terminal is needed.
Each client and server is available with a standard 17” monitor. However, a 19” touchscreen monitor is
also available for any POS terminal.
