SECTION 11: INSTALLING BATTERIES IN THE KEYPAD REMOTE
If the low-battery warning chirp is sounding in the keypad, it is time to replace the batteries. This warning
chirp will occur following each press of a keypad button.
1.
If you are in the middle of a game and the game clock is being used, make certain the game clock is
stopped before proceeding, and that the scoreboard is not in the power-down mode.
2.
Remove the four screws using a Philips-head screwdriver. Rotate each screw counter-clockwise to
remove.
3.
Remove the keypad cover by turning the unit upside-down and gently tapping on the keypad housing.
4.
Locate the battery holder near the bottom-area of the circuit board.
5.
Insert two new AAA-size alkaline batteries. Make certain the ‘+’ contact is properly oriented.
6.
Assemble the keypad housing. Turn the screws clockwise until resistance is felt when tightening.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN SCREWS AS THIS WILL DAMAGE THE KEYPAD HOUSING.
NOTE: Always replace both batteries at the same time for best performance.
SECTION 12: PAIRING THE SCOREBOARD AND KEYPAD
1. Cycle the scoreboard power off and on (waiting 3
seconds before each turn-on) until the scoreboard is
displaying the keypad RF connection screen shown
below at right. Make certain only one scoreboard in
the vicinity is showing this display at any given time,
otherwise the pairing process will fail.
(SNT-130MP shown for reference)
2.
Press and hold the
button on the keypad for up to 10 seconds (until the keypad emits a
beep). The scoreboard will go through a process of reconnecting to the keypad and will respond
after a few seconds by displaying the radio channel number. The keypad will beep twice if the
connection is good, or 3 times if the connection failed. Repeat this step if necessary to establish a
connection.
3.
After a couple seconds the scoreboard will show a normal display and is then ready for action.
