Start Up

1. Plug power cord into a 120 (or 230) VAC outlet.

2. Connect all signal cables to their appropriate jacks, if they are not

already connected. Wireless radio systems may not require these
signal connections. Refer to scoreboard installation manuals
and/or site-specific System Riser Diagrams for more information.

3. Slide a sport insert into the sleeve over the keypad (see Page 3).

4. Turn power switch S1 on rear of console to the ON position.

5. The console will perform a self-test when it is powered on.

During the self-test, a message will display the version of the
standard software loaded in the console:

6. When the self-test completes, a prompt displays the code number

for the last game played. This is useful when power to the console
is lost during a game.

 Press <YES> to resume the last game stored in memory.

The console is now ready for game operation.

 Press <NO> to start a new game or change sports. The console

will prompt for a new code number as shown below.

Use the number keypad to enter the new sport code, and then
press <ENTER>. Sport codes can be found on the sport-specific
insert and in the Operations Manual. Refer also to Page 3.

Radio Settings

If the radio option is installed, the console will also prompt for
the radio settings after changing the sport code. Press <ENTER>
to accept the current settings or press <CLEAR> to modify them.

The radio settings in the console (transmitter) must match
the settings in the scoreboard (receiver). By default, both are
set to Broadcast Group 1, Channel 01.

To determine the settings of a scoreboard, first power it
down and shut off any radio-equipped consoles in the area.
Next, power the scoreboard back up and watch for the radio
settings. The settings will appear as “bX CY” where X is the
current broadcast group and Y is the current channel:

The settings are typically displayed in the clock digits or Home
and Guest score digits, depending on the scoreboard model.

Refer to Section 2.4 of the Operations Manual for more
information on radio settings.

Sport Codes & Sport Inserts

 The Sport Code is used to set the console’s scoring mode.
 The Sport Insert is an interchangeable keypad overlay that

identifies the keys required for operation of a specific sport.

Each sport insert has a list of applicable sport codes on the left-hand side:

Use the label sheet (part # LL-2458)
provided with the console to affix the
correct sport code for a particular
scoreboard onto the sport insert at the
suggested location.

Appendix B of the Operations Manual contains scale drawings of every
sport insert. If an insert is lost or damaged, you can print the drawing
(8 ½" x 11" paper) and cut out the insert to use until a replacement arrives.

Below is a table of the most common codes for each sport, along with the
sport insert used to score it:

Note that many scoreboards are capable of scoring multiple sports.
Refer to Appendix C of the Operations Manual for a complete listing
of sport codes for each scoreboard model.

When ordering replacement inserts for any of the sports shown above,
you will receive the All Sport 5000 Insert Kit (part # LL-2776). Inserts for
sports not shown above may be ordered individually.

Jacks & Switches

 J1-J3 (SCOREBOARD OUTPUTS) – These are ¼" stereo

jacks used to connect directly to fixed-digit scoreboards,
clocks, and stat displays. J1, J2, and J3 all send out the
same scoreboard control signal.

For wireless systems, these jacks may not be needed. If the

console is equipped with a radio antenna, ensure that it
is pointed straight up during operation for best results.

 J4 (MAIN CLOCK START/STOP/HORN SWITCH) – This jack is

used for a main clock handheld start/stop switch. J4 may also be used
for external Precision Time console (for basketball).

 J5 (COMPUTER PORT) – Not used on this model

 J6 (I/O PORT) – This jack is the main input and output port. J6 is used

to send data to multiple displays (Scoreboard, Play Clock, and Locker
Room Clocks), communicate with other All Sport consoles, and send
Real-Time Data (RTD) to Daktronics display controllers.

 J7 (PLAY CLOCK START/STOP/RESET SWITCH) – This jack is

used for a play clock handheld start/stop/reset switch.

 J8 (SWITCH INPUTS) – Not used on this model

 S1 (POWER) – This switch is used to power the console ON and OFF.

Important Safeguards

1. Do not drop the control console or allow it to get wet.

2. To avoid electrical shock, do not disassemble the control

equipment or electronic controls of the display; failure to follow
this safeguard will also make the warranty null and void.

3. Always turn off and/or unplug the control equipment when it is

not in use. Never yank the power cord to pull the plug from the
outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.

4. Do not let any power cord touch hot surfaces or hang over the

edge of a table that would damage or cut the cord.

5. If an extension cord is necessary, a three-pronged, polarized cord

should be used. Arrange the cord with care so that it will not be
tripped over or pulled out.

6. After receiving a new or replacement console, inspect for

shipping damage such as rattles and dents, and verify that
all equipment is included as itemized on the packing slip.
Immediately report any problems to Daktronics; save all
packing materials if exchange is necessary.
