5. Make sure the control is programmed for high power radio transmis-
sion, as instructed at “HIGH AND LOW POWER MODES” ON PAGE 126.
6. If there has been no response to any of these possible fixes, Fair-Play
recommends that you run the scoreboard with a conventional data
cable for the duration of your game until you have more time to deter
-
mine the cause of the problem. If you decide to do this, be sure to set
the wireless MP-70/50’s channel switch (located on the back panel) to
position E, F, or 0; and the TRANSMIT mode switch to SEL. This will
turn the radio transmitter off and prevent possible damage to the
scoreboard’s processor.

considerations
• In facilities that have more than one wireless scoreboard, assign a par-
ticular control for use with a particular scoreboard and apply identifica-
tion labels for each control.
• Keep a record of the channels on which the scoreboard’s receivers are
set, and document the scoreboard Fair-Play model number. This is
especially useful for facilities that have more than one scoreboard, and
speeds up service processing if you should require future assistance.
(For more information, see
“GETTING HELP” ON PAGE 6).
• For periods of extended system inactivity, such as a school holiday or
overnight, shut off power to all scoreboards, timers and controls. This
will extend product life and increase the safety margin, should servic
-
ing be necessary.
Note: If you have difficulty establishing a signal lock
on any display, switch ALL of your controls to high
power.
