correct scoreboard type and data format as instructed in
“PROGRAMMING THE
SYSTEM SETTINGS” ON PAGE 149.
Sport-specific settings for
football
When you select football as instructed on “SELECTING AND CHANGING SPORTS”
ON PAGE 173, the MP-70/50 offers the sport-specific settings discussed
below. When you adjust these settings, the MP-70/50 stores your selec-
tions in permanent memory. Your settings become active each time you
select football in the future.
• 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.
