Multiple Controller with Multiple Broadcast Systems Channel Setting
In a multiple controller system with multiple broadcast groups, there are many consoles that
control multiple scoreboards and/or scoreboard groups. The radio receiver inside the
scoreboard is set to broadcast group 1–4 (Gen V) or 1–8 (Gen VI). By changing the console
settings to the specific broadcast group address, a single console can control all scoreboards
or specific groups of scoreboards.
One example of this scenario is split pool operation in facilities, where scoreboards are used
to score multiple meets at once, but can be grouped together to score one event if necessary.
Refer to the drawings listed on the previous page for more information.
Typically, all multiple controller systems will use BCAST 1, CHAN 1 for the first controller
in Broadcast Group 1 and BCAST 2, CHAN 1 for the first controller in Broadcast Group 2.
All other consoles in a group are added sequentially.
