Troubleshooting
No power
Make sure that the adaptor is plugged into an electric socket and that the adaptor is plugged into the
connection socket on the dartboard.
No scores
Check whether the game has been set to the ‘Settings’ mode or to the ‘Pause’ mode.
Then check whether the sensor elements or the function keys are stuck or jammed.
Stuck sensor elements or stuck function keys
During transportation and even during the normal operation of the dartboard it can happen that the
sensor elements will occasionally get jammed and will no longer register a hit. In this case a warning
signal will be heard, and an indicator will flash, indicating a stuck element. Gentle extraction of the
dart from the element, or gently moving the element to and fro using light finger pressure will normal-
ly free the element quickly. The game can then be resumed and the scores will continue from exactly
the point when they were interrupted.
Removing broken-off dart tips
Soft tips are definitely safer to use, but they do not last forever. Should a tip break off and remain
stuck in the dartboard, try to pull it out very carefully with suitable tweezers. Should a tip be broken
off so short that it does not protrude beyond the surface of the dartboard, it can also be pushed
into the dartboard through the hole. The soft tip cannot damage the electronics located beneath the
elements. For this operation however we strongly recommend you use the soft tip of a dart that is in a
perfect condition.
Never push a short broken-off tip through the dartboard using a sharp metal object, because a metal
tip can easily cause damage to the board if it is inserted too deeply into the dartboard. The heavier
the dart, the greater the danger of breaking the tip.
Electric current fluctuations or electro-magnetic interference
In extreme situations, when there is massive electro-magnetic interference, the electrics can fail or give
false results.
Examples:
In the case of severe thunder storms, extreme electric current fluctuations, low voltage or positioning
the darts game too close to electric motors or near microwave ovens.
To reset the normal operation of the item, pull out the mains plug and wait for several seconds before
plugging it in again. When doing this you should of course make sure that the cause of the interfe-
rence is eliminated.
