Daktronics Aquatics Interface with Daktronics Matrix Displays - Manual (Page 6)

2 Introduction
1.2 Software Conventions
The following terms are used to describe various mouse actions that can be used throughout
this manual. These instructions are based on the standard, right-handed mouse
configuration.
Bold
Any item that requires direct action, such as clicking, pressing, selecting
or formatting, appears in boldface.
Italics
Indicates an item visible on the screen or within a menu. No direct action
will be taken on this item. Boldface Italics are used to reference other
manuals, sections within this manual and figures.
[X] Represents a keyboard key that needs to be pressed.
“Quotes” Items that need to be typed, including folder and file names.
Click Press and release the left mouse button.
Double-click Press and release the left mouse button twice.
Right-click Press and release the right mouse button.
>
A caret indicates to click or move to one menu item after the other, (ex.
File > Open).
Many OmniSport 2000 timer and Pro software options can be accessed with the keyboard as
well as the mouse. Where applicable, both mouse and keyboard actions are given to perform
a command. Many screen buttons have labels that have a letter underlined. Press the key on
the keyboard that correlates with the underlined letter to activate that particular button. To
activate secondary buttons, press the underlined key while holding [Shift]. To activate menu
bar items from the keyboard, press the underlined key while holding [Alt].
1.3 Timing Systems
The timing console determines how the system will be connected. Daktronics has developed
standard interfaces for the Daktronics OmniSport 2000, CTS (4, 5, 6), Omega OSM6 and ARES
21. Which sport and the number of pools being used will determine how many inputs will be
configured in the display control system.
The main questions are going to be:
 What type of timing system is being used?
 How many pools are there?
 Which sport is being timed?
