Multiple Controller System with Single Broadcast Group

In a multiple controller system with a single broadcast group (Figure 6), there may be one
console for each scoreboard and/or one master controller that can run every scoreboard at
one time or take control of a specific scoreboard. An example of this type of system is a
softball complex with individual scoreboards on several different fields.

















Multiple controller systems typically use Broadcast 1 and Channel 1 for the first controller
and Channels 2–8 for all remaining controllers. All radio receivers in the system must be set
to Broadcast 1 (BCAST 1).
