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-140/440 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. Each press of the
button will start and stop the game clock.
2. Use the HOME
,
,
, and GUEST
,
, and
buttons to
control the team scores.
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).
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-140P or SNT-440P scoreboard, each press of the
or
buttons
will increment the penalties for the home and guest player, respectively.
