General Wireless (G2) Operating Guidelines - Fairplay MP-70 User Manual

G
ENERAL WIRELESS

Maintain a clear, unobstructed line-of-sight between the control antenna
and the receiving units. (See
on page 103 for more information).

Also when possible, operate the control with it's TRANSMIT mode switch
set to the SEL position.

If more than one control and scoreboard is in use at a facility, and if they
are to operate independently, then set each control and scoreboard
combination to their own dedicated channel.
Note: Trans-Lux Fair-Play can arrange a recommended radio frequency channel
plan for your site. Contact your sales representative for a channel plan.

Avoid setting more than one control at a time to the ALL SCBDS mode,
as this will cause the scoreboards to malfunction. (For more information,
see A
VOIDING POTENTIAL PROBLEMS WITH MULTIPLE CONTROLS
96).

Avoid setting more than one control at a time to a particular SEL mode
channel setting, as this will cause scoreboards tuned to that channel to
malfunction. (For more information, see
WITH MULTIPLE CONTROLS

Before establishing communication between a control set to ALL SCBDS
and its intended receiving scoreboards, be sure to have established
communication between the controls operating in the SEL mode and its
intended receiving scoreboards. Otherwise, the scoreboards you intend
to run with a control tuned to a particular channel in the SEL mode will be
likely to lock onto the signal from the control set to ALL SCBDS, and may
not respond to the intended SEL mode control when it is turned on. (For
more information, see
on page 96).
CONTROLS

The scoreboard or shot timer lamp driver circuit card can accommodate
either conventional control wire hookup or wireless radio receiver, and
the current version is able to accept both data transmission methods
simultaneously. However, versions prior to May 2010 were NOT capable
of accepting both the control wire and the wireless radio receiver.
