Using Touch Score with a Touch Screen
Using Touch Score with a touch screen is simplicity in itself. Generally you simply
touch what you want to do. The menus and screens are designed to be very easy to
use. The following instructions are intended for reference purposes only.
At the bottom corners of the touch screen are two buttons, one for each lane. These
buttons are used for many purposes.
Prior to bowling, these buttons are labelled
ENTER NAMES
. Touching these
buttons brings up the bowler entry screen.
During play, these buttons show which bowler is to bowl next on each lane.
Touching the button advances the arrow to the next bowler. If manual scoring is
being used, touching these button will bring up the score entry screen.
At the end of the game, these buttons will show
END OF GAME.
Touching the
button will clear the score either ready for the next game, or ready for the next
bowlers.
Between these two buttons is a green area label
TOUCH HER E FOR MENU.
Touching this button brings up the main menu.
Note that the
Lane Control System
has the ability to prevent the bowlers from using
the touch screen.
4.1
Selecting League or Open Play
Normally the selection between league and open play is done by
the Lane Control
System.
However, it is possible to change modes by touching the
LEAGUE
or
OPEN
buttons on the main menu screen.
Note that the
Lane Control System
has the ability to lock the mode so that the
bowlers cannot change it. Normally when the
Lane Control System
sets the mode,
it also locks the mode.
4.2
Entering a Bowlers Name, Handicap, Blind Score and Pacer
When there are no bowlers entered on a lane and the lane is in open or social mode,
the buttons at the bottom of the touch screen will show
ENTER NAMES
. Simply
touch the left or right
ENTER NAMES
button and enter the first bowler. Press
NEXT
to enter more bowlers. Press
OK
when all bowlers have been entered.
