MOUNTING THE SHOT CLOCKS ON A WALL
Carefully remove each shot clock from its packaging, making sure
not to pry against or cut into the clock’s cabinet. Inspect each unit
for shipping damage according to the instructions on page 6.
1 /
Connect a lift device to the hanging/lifting holes on the top of the
clock and lift the unit into place. Refer to the illustration to see the
location of the hanging/lifting holes.
If anchors are to be used, use the pre-drilled mounting holes in
the left and right mounting anges as a template for marking the
drill locations for the anchors, two (2) through the left mounting
anges and two (2) through the right mounting ange.
2 /
Move the clock away from the wall and drill the holes for the an-
chors. Install the anchors in the wall. Refer to the illustration to see
the location of mounting anges and mounting holes.
3 /
Once the anchors are installed (or if no anchors are to be used)
the clock may be fastened securely to the wall. Use hardware
appropriate for the surface to which the unit will be mounted.
4 /
For concrete or concrete block walls, the use of bolts and
anchors is recommended. No mounting brackets are necessary as
the pre-drilled mounting anges on the left and right of the clock
are used to mount the unit directly to the wall.
5 /
The clock must be attached to the wall securely through both
mounting holes in the left mounting ange and both mounting
holes in the right mounting flange. Refer to the illustration to see
the location of the mounting flanges and mounting holes.
NOTE: The location of the disconnect switch after
installation shall comply with Article 600 of the National
Electric Code.

10
SUSPENDING THE SHOT CLOCKS
Carefully remove each shot clock from its packaging, making
sure not to pry against or cut into the clock’s cabinet. Inspect
each unit for shipping damage according to the instructions on
page 6.
1 /
If the clock must be lifted into place before the permanent sus-
pension cables can be attached the unit may be raised into posi-
tion by connecting a lift device to the two top mounting holes in
the unit’s left and right mounting anges.
2 /
Then, two (2) separate suspension cables may be attached to the
hanging holes in the top of the unit. Refer to the illustration to see
the location of the hanging holes and side mounting anges.
3 /
If the clock is to be lifted into position using the same cables that
will permanently suspend it, these cables may be attached direct-
ly to the hanging holes in the top of the unit.
NOTE: It is recommended that the cables that will be used to
permanetly suspend the shot clocks be attached to the structure
rst, then to the clock’s hanging holes after it is lifted into posiiton
using a lifting device.

RUNNING & CONNECTING THE ELECTRIC SERVICE
NOTE:
THIS PORTION OF THE INSTALLATION REQUIRES A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN. IDEALLY,
THE SCOREBOARAD WILL BE POWERED FROM A DEDICATED 120V/20A CIRCUIT.
ADDITIONALLY, SINCE THE SCOREBOARD’S POWER SHOULD BE TURNED OFF AFTER
EACH USE, THERE SHOULD BE EASY ACCESS TO THE POWER SWITCH OR CIRCUIT
BREAKER. IF ACCESS TO THE CIRCUIT BREAKER IS NOT AN OPTION, INSTALL A SWITCH
SOMEWHERE THAT IS ACCESSIBILE, EVEN IF UNDER THE SCOREBOARD AT AN ABOVE
AVERAGE HEIGHT.
1 /
Open the power/signal access
door on the top of the shot
clocks. Locate the power
input wires.
2 /
The connections are stan-
dard black, white, and green
(ground). Included is a utility
ground which must be used.
Make up the power supply
connections and replace the
utility box cover.
3 /
Close and secure the power/
signal access door.

12
WIRELESS SHOT CLOCKS
Below is a picture of the back of one of the wireless shot clocks. The wireless receiver is attached inside the unit
and you have up to 10 feet of slack on its cable. Remotely mount this receiver by removing the white strips o the
adhesive and place on a clean, smooth, surface in close proximity to the shot clock.
NOTE: ENSURE THAT THE RUBBER ANTENNA IS POINTED STRAIGHT UP AND THAT THERE IS A
LINE OF SIGHT BETWEEN THE WIRELESS RECEIVER AND THE KEYBOARD CONTROLLER.

13
The Backboard Lighting (BBL) connection point is on the top of each of the shot clocks. Once
the shot clocks are installed and the BBL strips are installed, plus the XLR connection to a port
as shown below.
Please refer to your BBL Installation Manual for further instructions on their installation.
