Pin Detector Count
This feature determines the sensitivity of the pin detectors. The optical sensors of the pin
detectors “see” the holes in the wheels that rotate because of string movement. The
control chassis counts the number of holes for each pin and compares it to the setting. If it
is equal to or more than the default setting, it is virtually assured that it is due to the pin
being knocked over. Simply being slid to the side by contact with the ball or another pin
does not produce sufficient string movement. The default setting is 15 with a maximum
of 20 and a minimum of 4, but setting it too high or low will cause pin count errors. If
you find that a pin falling over does not register as fallen, you can decrease the setting
which increases the sensitivity (it takes fewer holes to register as a fallen pin). This is a
single setting that applies to all of the pins of a pinspotter (but each pinspotter of the pair
can have a different setting). Note: before lowering this setting, make sure that the reason
a pin wasn’t counted isn’t due to the delay time having expired. Pins must fall over
during the delay period in order to be counted.
