If baseball is not the sport currently selected on the MP-70/50, or if you
want to change the controller’s settings for baseball, see
“SELECTING AND
CHANGING SPORTS” ON PAGE 173.
You should also verify that the controller has been programmed to use the
correct scoreboard type and data format as instructed in
“PROGRAMMING THE
SYSTEM SETTINGS” ON PAGE 149.
• The MP-70/50 offers two keypad inserts for baseball, labeled “Base-
ball” and “Baseball Multi-Purpose.” Use the first if you will be tracking
the score by inning, as with the BA-7136 scoreboard. Use the second
with more basic baseball scoreboards, such as the BA-7100 or BA-
7109, or with multi-purpose scoreboards such as the MP-7114. Be sure
the insert you are using is appropriate for the scoreboard type you
have selected. See
“PROGRAMMING THE SYSTEM SETTINGS” ON PAGE 149 for
more information on scoreboard types.
• The sequence shown on the following pages presents you with all of
the options you could encounter while programming sports-specific
settings. However, these options presented to you may vary, depend
-
ing upon the type of your control (MP-70 or MP-50), the version num-
ber of the firmware in your control, the two-digit board type that
you’ve selected, or your scoreboard model. Hence, not all of the
options outlined in this chapter may appear on your control.
• As you run through the following programming sequence, and you
find the need to back up to a previous programming option earlier in
the sequence, you can back up by selecting
SHIFT+8.
• You may skip a prompt by pressing the NEXT key. This will advance
you to the next prompt, but will save the existing settings of your cur
-
rent prompt without making any changes. However, Fair-Play advises
that you respond
YES or NO to all prompts, so that you have made all
of the appropriate selections for your sports event.
• You may exit the programming sequence at any time by pressing the
ESC key. This will take you to the Quit prompt.
