Dolphin

The Dolphin base (and watches and starter) must be on the same channel as the
wireless scoreboard adapter inside the scoreboard. The default factory setting of the
wireless scoreboard adapter inside the scoreboard is Channel 7
When the scoreboard is turned on, it displays an initialization routine which includes the
scoreboard's channel, PAN and address, and then the channel of the wireless
scoreboard adapter inside the scoreboard. This display is described in more detail in the
Scoreboard Power On Routine on page 2.
Note the Dolphin channel displayed under Lane and Place during initialization, and
follow instructions in the Dolphin general quick reference guide to set the Dolphin base
to the same channel through the Dolphin software. You can then follow the user
instructions for the scoreboard adapter to wirelessly change the channel of the
scoreboard adapter inside the scoreboard if desired.

Gen7 Timer

Setting Channel and PAN

If using the scoreboard wirelessly, the scoreboard's wireless settings must match the
wireless settings in the Gen7 timer. The scoreboard's default factory settings used
by Gen7 are Channel 6 / PAN 0. You can change the settings in the Gen7 Swimming
software from the Scoreboard tab.
When the scoreboard is turned on, it displays an initialization routine which includes the
scoreboard's channel, PAN and address, and then the channel of the wireless

Wired Connection

A Gen7 timer can be connected by cables to the scoreboard.
Scoreboard cables must be supported a minimum of every 6 feet when not in conduit.
When conduit is used, the conduit must be secured every 3 feet at minimum.
Scoreboard cables must not be spliced in either indoor or outdoor applications. If using
