COMMUNICATION CABLES
Connecting a Hard Wired Cable
•Using the supplied 20-ft. DIN cable, connect one end to either of the DIN sockets on back of
the controller and the other end to the junction box receptacle.
NOTE: When POWER is turned ON to the scoreboard, it will momentarily display the code for
the sport the scoreboard is ready to display in the HOME TEAM SCORE Section’s far right
digit, or, the one’s position. This code only shows for about three seconds and then changes
to the default 0 (zero) score. The code for baseball is “5”. In the event the scoreboard does
not display a “5” at start-up, follow the directions for changing GAME MODES in the
instructions below.
GETTING STARTED
Begin by making sure the Game Insert that came with your scoreboard is in the sleeve on the face of
the controller, as in the image below.

CHANGING GAME MODES:
When initially powering the scoreboard, pay attention to the far right digit of the HOME score
(ones position). It should display a 5 (this indicates baseball) for a few seconds and then
change to a 0 (zero). If it does not, press the SELECT GAME button for three (3) seconds and
then press the Inning button (button #5 on the keypad). To store the selection press the Out
button (button #9). Next, press the NEW GAME button to begin game-play.
STARTING A NEW GAME:
At power-up, the scoreboard is ready for game play. In the event you need to begin again or
start a new game, simply press and hold the NEW GAME button for three seconds. This will
clear the information from the scoreboard and display the start-up values of zero (0) in both
scores, a one (1) in the Period, and no balls, strikes, or outs.
CHANGING HOME SCORE:
To increase the HOME score by one, press the HOME SCORE key on the keypad. To
decrease the HOME score by one press the “red” -1 HOME key on the left side of the keypad.
CHANGING GUEST SCORE:
To increase the GUEST score by one, press the GUEST SCORE key on the keypad. To
decrease the GUEST score by one press the “red” -1 GUEST key on the left side of the
keypad.
CHANGING INNINGS:
To increase INNING by one press the INNING key.
EDIT INNINGS:
To edit the INNINGS, press the EDIT key quickly followed by the INNING key, this will only
decrease the INNING by (1) one each time.
CHANGING BALLS AND STRIKES:
To change BALLS or STRIKES, press the respective keys on the keypad. If you enter more
BALLS or STRIKES than you intended, simply press the respective keys on the keypad to
cycle back to the correct number of either BALLS or STRIKES.
CHANGING OUTS:

6
To change OUTS, press the OUT key on the keypad. The third OUT will clear the BALLS and
STRIKES to NONE.
NEW BATTER:
To clear all balls and strikes for the next batter, press the NEW BATTER key.
H/E:
The H/E key lights the HIT and ERROR indicators on the scoreboard. The first press will light
the HIT indicator. A second press changes the lit indicator to the ERROR indicator. A third
press clears the HIT and ERROR indicators.
WIRELESS CONTROLLER BATTERY REPLACEMENT
THIS IS FOR WIRELESS ONLY
Wireless controllers receive their power from 4 AA batteries that are accessible by removing the
back cover on the controller. From time to time the batteries need to be replaced. The back cover is
held in place by tabs on the cover itself and is a snug fit so that no tools are required for the battery
swap. The following steps illustrate the process.
Step 1:
Turn the controller upside down and notice the pocket along the top edge.
Step 2:
While holding the controller, pull up on the back cover at the pocket to remove it. This will
take some pressure as the cover is designed with a “friction” type fit.
Step 3:
Replace the 4 AA batteries with 4 quality brand batteries, making sure they are in the proper
orientation with respect to polarity.
