Important precautions
• Read this manual thoroughly before setting up or operating the SP-70.
• Do not drop the SP-70.
• Avoid exposing the SP-70 to liquids or moisture.
• Be sure the power cord is protected from hot surfaces, sharp edges,
and anything else that could damage it. (Doesn’t apply to battery
controls.)
• For your safety, the SP-70 features a three-pronged, grounded power
cord. Connect this cord only to a standard 120-volt grounded outlet.
If a 120-volt grounded outlet for a three-pronged plug is unavailable,
have one installed by a qualified electrician. (This doesn’t apply to
battery controls.)
• Unplug the SP-70 when it is not in use. To unplug it, grasp the plug at
the outlet; do not pull on the cord. (This doesn’t apply to battery con-
trols.)
• The SP-70 contains no user-serviceable parts. To avoid personal injury
or damage to the SP-70’s components, do not disassemble the con-
troller. Refer any repairs to a qualified techician.
• When an extension cord is necessary, use only a three-pronged cord
with grounded, polarized connectors. Avoid placing the cord where
someone may trip over it or unplug it accidentally. (Doesn’t apply to
battery controls.)
• Do not expose the SP-70 to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures
for extended periods.

You may also need to configure the SP-70 for the type of scoreboard you
are operating. While this is normally done at the factory, you may need to
complete this step in certain situations.
If the scoreboard does not behave as expected, verify that the proper
scoreboard type has been selected as instructed in
