One of the file lights will also be on, telling you the exact number of 

time intervals. The file ligh ts count from H to A. 

If your time shows 1A, you have less than 1 time interval left. If your time 

shows 1H, you have less than 8 time Intervals left. If your time shows 
8A, you have less than 57 time intervals left. If your time shows 8D, you 
have less than 60 time intervals left. 

If all 8 rank lights are flashing, it means that you have used all 
your time. 

Thus if you are playing on level B4, and the time shows 1F. it means 

that you have less than 12 minutes left till next time control. The 
computer will not give you any signal, when you 

lose on time. If you want to play on time with the computer, you must 

check your own time yourself. Nothing happens when you lose on time, 
you can always continue the game 

normally. 

22. 

SEARCH DEPTH 

When playing with your computer it may interest you to know how 

many half moves the computer is looking ahead. The search depth is 
of course linked to the level set. meaning that on level A1 the search is 
by far not as deep as on level A8 etc. On the training levels (E1-E8) the 
search depth is fixed. 

If you press the LEVEL key while the computer is thinking, the current 

search depth will be indicated by a rank light E.g. the 3-light means 
that the computer is looking 3 halfmoves ahead. On the Mate level (F4) 
the computer shows the number of moves, in which it is trying to find a 
mate. If the search depth exceeds 8 half moves, the computer will start 
counting from 1 again. Thus if the computer is looking e.g. 11 
halfmoves ahead, the 3-light will be on. 

23. 

ANTICIPATED LINE OF PLAY AND EVALUATION 

When you press the HINT key, the computer will flash the move it 

expects to be the next move in the game (see section 13). If you, after 

having pressed the HINT key. press it a second timo, the computer will 

flash the move it expects to be the 2nd 

next move in the game, and so on, up to a maximum of 6 hal' moves. 

In this way you can see how the computer expects
