DETERMINING LOCATION AND ORIENTATION
The scoreboard should be positioned so that the greatest number of spectators can easily view it.
Also, consider the best orientation of the scoreboard should the system be used to score a daytime or
afternoon game. The scoreboard should be positioned so that sunlight does not glare off of its face.
In the U.S., placement on the South or West side of the field is recommended. Consult with the local
building or zoning department before final determination and installing the scoreboard.
INSTALLING MOUNTING POLES OR I-BEAMS
NOTE: The following information for installing the mounting poles/beams are suggestions
only. Local codes, field placement, scoreboard options, customer preference, and other
special considerations will determine the specifics of your installation, including footer
specifications, above ground height, and total length of the poles/I-beams.
1. Install the two (2) mounting poles/I-beams (supplied by the customer) on the field with a 4’
center spacing and with 14’-6”(*) of pole/I-beam above ground (refer to the figures below).
2. The poles/I-beams must be set into concrete footers. Make sure the poles are level and plumb
and spaced on 4’ centers. The mounting faces of I-beams must be straight with each other. If
the face of an I- beam is turned, shims will be needed to mount the scoreboard. The required
dimensions for the footers vary depending on local building codes, soil & weather conditions,
and scoreboard size. Consult with local building officials for the required pole sizes and footer
construction regarding this installation. A local architect, structural engineer, or sign installer
may also be a source of assistance.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT MOUNT THE SCOREBOARD TO A WALL. A MINIMUM OF 18” – 24”
CLEARANCE MUST BE MAINTAINED FOR ACCESS TO THE BACK OF THE SCOREBOARD

6
CABINET. CONTROL MODULE, POWER, AND SIGNAL CABLE CONNECTIONS ARE
ACCESSED ON THE BACK OF THE SCOREBOARD
MOUNTING THE SCOREBOARD
NOTE: IF THE POLES/I-BEAMS ARE NOT IN ALIGNMENT --- SHIMS MAY BE
NEEDED TO MOUNT THE SCOREBOARD PROPERLY. MOUNTING THE
SCOREBOARD WITH THE POLES/I-BEAMS OUT OF ALIGNMENT MAY DAMAGE
THE SCOREBOARD AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
1. Attach the Mounting Flat Stock to the scoreboard using the provided 3/8” hardware, as
shown below.
2. Using the lift holes provided, connect a lift device to the scoreboard, as in the image below.
3. Lift the scoreboard into place to the desired height, ensuring that the scoreboard is level.
4. Secure the scoreboard to the poles/beams using the mounting flanges attached to the
scoreboard. The unit must be attached to each pole/beam on top and bottom.
5. If using steel I-beams, either weld the mounting flanges to the supports, or drill the
mounting flanges and supports to use bolts, washers, and nuts to secure the scoreboard to
the I-beams.
6. If galvanized steel poles are being used, weld or bolt steel angles to the mounting flanges,
which can then be welded to or bolted through the pole. Refer to the figure below for
detailed illustrations of these suggested mounting methods.

11
RUNNING & CONNECTING THE CONTROL CABLE
(For scoreboards with Wireless Remote Control, skip this step.)
The control cable must be run in a separate conduit than is used for the electrical service. The
control cable should run from the scoreboard to a location that is within 10 feet of the scorekeeper’s
location and into a 2”X4” wall box.
NOTE: IF THE WIRES IN YOUR CABLE DO NOT COLOR MATCH WHAT IS SHOWN, CONNECT
TO THE TERMINALS WITH THE BLACK, GREEN, AND WHITE CONDUCTORS. DO NOT
CONNECT A WIRE TO THE RED TERMINAL. MATCH THE SAME COLORS IN YOUR CABLE TO

12
THE BLACK, GREEN, AND WHITE WIRES ON THE BACK OF THE WALL PLATE AT THE
SCORING LOCATION.
At the scorekeeper’s location:
1. With the communication cable installed between the scoreboard and the 2”X4” wall box, locate
the wall plate provided with your installation hardware.
2. The back of the wall plate has a label indicating how the connections are to be made. Likely,
the insulation will not be the same color on the wires in the cable as that on the wires on the
back of the wall plate. Follow the chart if possible, but more importantly; whatever the match-
up is at the wall plate should also be the match-up at the scoreboard.
3. Secure the junction box cover to the installed junction box.
At the scoreboard:
4. Remove the signal/power access door located on the back of panel A.
5. From the ground, run the control cable through a sealed, water-tight conduit then through a
water-tight conduit fitting into the left side of the signal cable/power access door and into the
scoreboard. A hole is provided for a conduit connector

13
6. Inside the scoreboard, connect the control cable leads to the appropriate terminals on the
terminal block, according to the label above the terminal block.
NOTE: Refer to the connections that were made at the scorekeeper’s location. Make the
connections at the scoreboard match the connections at the scorekeeper’s location.
7. Re-secure the signal/power access door to the scoreboard.
RUNNING & CONNECTING THE ELECTRIC SERVICE
NOTE: IT IS RECOMMENDED TO HAVE A LICENSED ELECTRICAN RUN THE ELECTRICAL
SERVICE AND CONNECT IT TO THE SCOREBOARD. A WATERTIGHT, NON-FUSIBLE
DISCONNECT SWITCH, A 20-AMP GROUND FAULT INTERRUPTER, AND A SAFETY GROUND
SHOULD BE INSTALLED FOR THE 20-AMP CIRCUIT CONNECTED TO THE SCOREBOARD. A
120-VOLT CIRCUIT MUST BE AVAILABLE AT THE SCOREKEEPER’S LOCATION FOR THE
CONTROLLER’S 12-VOLT DC WALL TRANSFORMER. IF A BATTERY PACK WAS PURCHASED
WITH THE CONTROLLER, THIS OUTLET BECOMES OPTIONAL.
1. The scoreboard has a ½” knock-out on the lower right corner for bringing in the electrical
service. It can be enlarged if the conduit size is ¾”. This is where the conduit from the power
source needs to terminate.
2. The connections are standard black, white, and green (ground). Replace the cover when
complete.

TESTING THE INSTALLED SYSTEM
NOTE: Please refer to the OPERATORS MANUAL on the CD, or included with the system to
operate the scoreboard.
Connecting cable-controlled systems:
Connect one end of the supplied 20-ft. control cable into either of the two control cable jacks on
the back of the controller and the other into the receptacle on the supplied junction box cover
installed at the scorekeeper’s location.
Connecting wireless systems:
Connect the wireless transmitter to the controller using the interface cable by plugging the end of
the interface cable into either of the control cable jacks on the back of the controller.
Testing the scoreboard system:
3. Connect the appropriate end of the 12-volt DC wall transformer to the power receptacle on the
back of the controller. Plug the transformer into a live, 120-volt outlet. If the optional battery
pack was purchased with the keyboard, the transformer may be used to charge the battery.
4. Turn the power to the scoreboard ON using the power disconnect switch or circuit breaker.
The HOME/GUEST SCORE, and INNING displays should read “0” with the rest of the
scoreboard blank.
5. With the controller OFF, press and hold the OPTION key while turning the controller ON. The
controller’s LCD will briefly display the controller’s software version. When the display
changes and reads “SELECT DIAG MODE <DIGIT TEST>,”” press ENTER. The LCD will
now read “SEGMENT TEST –SEGMENTS OFF.” Pressing the UP arrow (located on the far
right of the controller’s keypad) will put thescoreboard into digit count mode and all displays on
the scoreboard should count 0-9 in unison. Pressing the UP arrow again will turn every display
in the scoreboard ON solidly. To exit the diagnostic mode, press the RESET key, then turn the
keyboard power OFF.
6. After turning the controller back ON, press either ENTER or RESET to enter the controller’s
scoring mode. Thoroughly test the system and simulate a real game by adding and subtracting
RUNS from teams, changing innings, etc. See operators manual for further operating
instructions. To reset the scoreboard, simply press and hold the RESET key.
NOTE: Always turn both the controller and the scoreboard OFF after each use. If the controller is
turned OFF but the scoreboard remains ON, (or if the controller loses communication with the
scoreboard), the scoreboard’s INNING digit will begin to flash with the rest of the displays blank.
This feature is intended to remind the user to turn power to the scoreboard OFF after each use.
