Using the Shot Clock Controller in Conjunction with a Basketball Controller
The shot clock controller can be used in conjunction with a basketball controller. To do this there must be a
basketball controller in the same network group as the shot clock. When used together the shot clock time will
decrement when the game time is decrementing.
While game time is running the shot clock time can not be stopped with the button.
However, shot clock time can be paused by holding the button and game time will decrement
normally.
Releasing the button will continue decrementing the shot clock timer. Pressing the
button will clear the shot clock time.

Options Menu
Several option settings are available to fine tune the scoreboard system to your needs. These settings are saved
in the control. They are remembered even if the control is turned OFF or the batteries removed. When a control
turns ON the scoreboard, these settings are sent to the scoreboard and are used to define how it operates. This
allows each coach or group to have their own control with its unique option choices, thus eliminating the need
to set up the options every time the scoreboard is used. For example, Brightness (Baseball –day time) (Soccer –
night time).
It is also possible to use more than one control to operate the scoreboard. For instance, the Time can be
controlled by one person while someone else operates the rest of the scoreboard with another control.
Standard Options
The options key can be used to access the following features. Each press of the options key moves you
to the next option screen.
Note: In this illustration the cursor indicates the default factory settings.
Note: You can return to the main screen at any time by pressing PERIOD / SCORE.
Allows you to clear the scoreboard data.
Note: The period will be set to 1, scores will be set to 0, and all other
data are set to blank.
Allows you to edit the Electronic Team Name for both Home and
Guest.
Note: The ETN can only be edited when time is stopped.
Note: After pressing the “+” key to get into the ETN menu, press the
“Options” button to switch between Home and Guest ETN’s.
Use the “+” to go increment the alphabet and the “-“ key to decrement
the alphabet. Use the “Options” button to advance the cursor.
Note: Hold the key down for fast advance.

installation for future reference. Multiple receivers can be
used with multiple controllers all on the same network. (The
serial number is in the battery door on a segment timer)
Step 2. Install the receiver(s) into the scoreboard and power up the
receiver(s) that are to be used.
a. Standard Installation –Uses the RJ12 output of the receiver.
b. Rain Type Box Installation –Uses the coax output of the receiver and a 9VDC power
supply.
Step 3. Wait approximately 15 seconds after the receiver has been turned on before turning on the
MPCX2 controller in order to allow enough time for the receiver to be initialized.
Step 4. Insert the batteries included with the MPCX2 control or turn the control ON by pressing
The display will read:
Step 5. Enter in the receiver ID’s located on the receiver box using the controller keypad buttons
(NEXT) to move the cursor and or to increment or decrement each digit.
When done press the (BACK) button in the lower left corner.
Step 6. The screen will then prompt with.
Step 7. Pressing will reset the controller. Pressing will allow additional receiver ID’s to be
entered into the controller and will display the message.
Step 8. If additional receivers are to be added then select and repeat steps 5 through 6. If
additional receivers do not need to be added then select and the controller will be reset.

Multiple Receivers and Controllers
Both multiple controllers and receivers can be on the same network.
Multiple Controllers
For example, one person with a controller can control Game Time and another person with a separate
controller can control Game Score of the same game on the same scoreboard. Multiple controllers can
be used for any combination of game data.
If a second controller is powered on after the first powered on controller has been initialized, then the
second controller will be configured with the same Scoreboard Model described in the “Setting the
Control for Your Model of Scoreboard” section.
Multiple Receivers
Multiple receivers can be used on the same network. One example could be separate scoreboards for
the same game or in the case of basketball one receiver controls the scoreboard while other receiver(s)
control the shot clock(s).

TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
Problem Cause Solution
Scoreboard will not turn ON when control
is turned ON
Control continues to search after an
unusually long time
Data won’t change on control
Control display shows incorrect
information
Cannot turn the time ON
Receiver not working or
receiver/scoreboard not powered up
Cycle power to receiver/scoreboard
Control signal weak
Check signal
strength (see
Options menu)
Out of Range
Battery level low
Replace batteries
Control in a poor
location
Make sure the control is in clear line of
sight of the scoreboard
Move closer to scoreboard
Control is linked to extra unwanted
receivers or wanted receivers are not
powered ON.
Use the Options Menu to check the
receivers the control is linked to and
the receivers on its list.
Control is not linked to this scoreboard
Find and use the control for this
scoreboard.
Link the control to this scoreboard or
group (see Options Menu)
Didn’t sync up
Power control OFF, then ON
Control is ON but scoreboard/timer is
OFF (data is changing on control)
No power to scoreboard
Check all switches, breakers, and fuses
Bad connection between Receiver and
scoreboard module
Check all cables and connections
Scoreboard/timer is ON but does not
respond to control
Control and receiver are not communicating
Turn control OFF, then ON to establish
communications
My control will not operate scoreboard
(Out of Range)
Poor connection with bad line of sight to
the scoreboard or distance is too great.
Return to a closer location with direct
line of sight and verify Signal Strength
and run Network Analyzer to
determine and document connection
integrity. If that does not work then
cycle power to controller.
I cannot set the time
The time is running
Stop the time first
Cannot turn the time ON
Time at 0.0 and set to count down
Set some time on the clock
Scoreboard is ON –Control is OFF
Batteries were removed while scoreboard
ON
Batteries were completely discharged while
scoreboard is on
Install batteries -- power ON
Cycle power at scoreboard
Not all controls of a multi-control
scoreboard system will operate the
scoreboard
Multiple controllers were powered on at the
same time and not all connected
Power cycle the controllers that are not
operating the scoreboard.
Scoreboard connected to MPCX2 is
displaying data in the wrong places,
incorrect data, or horn constantly sounds.
Control is not configured for correct
scoreboard model series
Reconfigure the control (see options
menu)
If the problem persists please contact the Nevco Service Department.

LED STATUS
The receiver has a red status LED next to the RJ12 and Ethernet jack. It can be used to diagnose the status of the
MPCX2 receiver.
MPCX2 receiver status LED
RECEIVER IDENTIFICATION ON POWERUP
On powerup the receiver connected to the OCM will identify itself by flashing from the most significant 2
digit numbers to the least significant 2 digit numbers. For example, a receiver with ID 123456 will flash 12,
34, and then 56 on power up. This is used to distinguish which X2 receiver is connected to which OCM’s
without having to open up the scoreboard.
LED Status
MPCX2 Connection Status
Solid On
The receiver is powered on, but a connection attempt has not yet been made, or a connection
attempt was unsuccessful.
Blinking Fast
(multiple times a second)
The receiver is in the network and connected. The receiver may appear to not be blinking due to it
blinking very quickly. If the receiver is connected to Scorbitz through the Ethernet jack, then it
will blink more visibly.
Blinking Slow
(approximately once a second)
The receiver is not connected but connection attempts are being made. Each slow blink is a
connection attempt. If the receiver is intended for the network and it is flashing slowly but never
connects then verify that the receiver list in the MPCX2 control is correct.
Solid Off
The receiver is not powered on. It is also possible that the receiver is powered on but for some
reason the LED has been turned off. If this is suspected to be the case then cycle power to the
receiver and the LED should turn on after a brief delay.
