SECTION 4: USING THE TOURNAMENT MODE
Tournament Mode is great for events where multiple rounds of timed play occur, and a final round is set up
as a sudden-death round. Your SNT-130/230 scoreboard can be set up to have any number of timed rounds
(up to 9 total) and one sudden-death round. The timed rounds can be set up in two different ways:
Option 1: The first round has a different time than all remaining rounds.
Option 2: All rounds have the same time
The default configuration of the Tournament Mode is as follows:
Round 1 is a 3-minute timed round
Round 2 is a 2-minute timed round
Round 3 is a sudden-death round
To select the Tournament Mode (Mode 3) and to set up the times of the rounds, simply follow these steps:
1. Select play mode 3 of the scoreboard as described in Section 2.
2.
Set the length of the first round using the
and
buttons.
3.
Press the
button to select the second round.
4.
Set the length of the second (and all remaining) rounds using the
and
buttons.
5.
Press and hold the
button
to reset the Tournament Mode to the first round. Setup is complete.
Using The Tournament Mode:
1. To start or stop the clock, press the
and
buttons, respectively.
2.
Change the Home and Guest scores using the home
and
buttons and guest
and
buttons.
3.
When each round has expired, press the
button to advance to the next round.
4.
Each round following round 2 defaults to a sudden death round, but can be changed to a timed
round by simply pressing the
button (and then pressing this button again to start the clock),
and can be turned back into a sudden-death round by pressing the
button (after first
stopping the clock)
.
This allows you to have a different number of timed rounds following a sudden
death round for greatest flexibility.
5.
If you are using the SNT-130MP scoreboard, each press of the
or
buttons will
increment the penalties for the home and guest player, respectively.
