Chapter 8: Using the Setup Wizard 55
Step 3: Set Options
The third step of the Setup Wizard is the Set Options screen. The Set Options screen controls all aspects of
how the Duo Unit behaves and what additional equipment is connected to the Duo unit. Each option can be toggled
on and off by pressing the appropriate button for the desired option.
These options include:
Automatic display of the score
Disabling the Automatic Scoring will cause the Duo Hardware to ignore all scores and only allow score entry from the
keyboard. Automatic scoring is usually left enabled, but occasionally the need might arise to disable it for coaching
purposes or in a faulty scoring situation.
Automatic Cycle on Tenth Frame
If a spare is bowled in the Tenth frame, the bowler can bowl the bonus third ball for this frame. The Tenth Frame
Cycle setting sets the Duo’s behaviour in this situation.
If you have your cycles connected to the Duo Hardware via the Machine Interface Port or the Machine
Communications Port, then the Tenth Frame Cycle should be enabled. In this situation, the Duo will cycle the
Pinspotter a second time for Brunswick A, A2, AMF 82-30 and 82-70 machines. For all other advanced machines, the
Duo will perform a Short Cycle directly to first ball.
Note: If you do not have any cycle cables connected, then the Tenth Frame
Cycle option should be disabled. In this case the Duo will display a sign
on the monitors asking the bowler to either bowl another ball (The Score
from which is ignored) or press the cycle button at the ball return.
Display a Foul in Competition Play
This option defines the Duo’s behaviour when a Foul is detected during Competition Play. The majority of Pinsetters
will automatically perform a foul cycle when the Pinsetter detects that a foul has been bowled. In this case the
Display Foul option should be enabled so that an F will be shown on the scoregrid for that bowler. The Foul Units can
then be turned on and off at the managers control desk as desired.
It is only Brunswick A and A2 machines that do not have a foul cycle. In this case, you have the option to show the F
on the scoregrid or ignore it by disabling this setting. It is most common to Enable the setting for Competition Play.
Display a Foul in Open Play
This option defines the Duo’s behaviour when a Foul is detected during Open Play. As mentioned above, the majority
of Pinsetters will automatically perform a foul cycle when the Pinsetter detects that a foul has been bowled. In this
case the Display Foul option should be enabled so that an F will be shown on the scoregrid for that bowler. The Foul
Units can then be turned on and off at the managers control desk as desired.
It is only Brunswick A and A2 machines that do not have a foul cycle. In this case, you have the option to show the F
on the scoregrid or ignore it by disabling this setting. It is most common to Disable this setting for Open Play so that
the Foul Units can be left on to try to stop members of the public over stepping the foul line and slipping on the lanes.
