3 The MPCW-6 System The system includes the MPCW-6 control, an MPCW-6 Receiver (each receiver and control have a 9 volt power adapter), System Key and System Key Management Overlay, Model Code 618. Each scoreboard and shot clock display requires its own receiver. Group Management Introduction Setting up and managing the Nevco scoreboard wireless system is rather easy when a few principles are known. Every scoreboard or display in the system must have a Receiver. Each Receiver s data is downloaded into a System Key and given a name that will identify it to the person setting up the system. Groups are created (up to 40 scoreboards and other Nevco equipment that will be operated together). These Groups are given names. Names may be up to 16 characters. A control can manage up to 40 Groups. In order to operate, the Receiver must be added to a Group. A common example is as follows. A High School has a football scoreboard and delay of game timers, therefore needing 3 receivers. The Receiver Names might be named East DGT, West DGT and Scoreboard. The Group Name might be Football. The school also has 2 basketball scoreboards and shot clocks in the gym. This would require 4 receivers. The Receiver Names might be North Scoreboard, South Scoreboard, North SC and South SC. The Group Name might be Varsity Bskball. The gym is split cross-court for practice and intramural games, using one of the scoreboards and one of the shot clocks for each court; therefore two other Group Names might be Practice South and Practice North. Practice South would include Receivers Named South Scoreboard and South SC. Practice North would include Receiver Names North Scoreboard and North SC. This is a total of four Groups. When the control is turned on the names of these Groups will be displayed and the control operator may select the proper Group to operate. This High School may program their MPCW-6 controls to operate any of the equipment simply by changing to the correct overlay and selecting the Group Name desired. Operation of the MPCW-6 is identical to the MPC-5.

4 Set up of MPCW-6 Step 1 Plug the System Key into the receiver using the phone jack. Step 2 Plug receiver into the power adapter. Plug the power adapter into any 120 volt 50/60 hertz outlet. The Yellow LED on the System Key will illuminate indicating data is being downloaded. The Green LED on the System Key will illuminate indicating the data has been transferred. Disconnect the System Key from the receiver. Repeat this step for all receivers that you will be installing at this time. The data from the receivers will be stored in the System Key in the order they were connected. Very Important: Label or identify in some manner where these receivers will be installed. You may use the blank space provided on the label located on the top of the Receiver. This information will be critical when naming them in a subsequent step. Note: Only connect the System Key to each Receiver once. Step 3 Connect the MPCW-6 to its power adapter and plug into any 120 volt 50/60 hertz outlet. Unplug any hand-held switches before continuing with the set up. Turn on the MPCW-6. On the MPCW-6 enter the 618-model code from the overlay. You will be prompted to Insert the System Key into either hand-held switch socket. The Yellow LED will flash on the System Key and the display will read Downloading Data. Once completed, the green LED on the System Key will illuminate indicating the data has been transferred to the control. You are now ready to Name the Receivers. Very Important: The System Key should remain plugged into the MPCW-6 until the set up procedure is complete, you will be instructed to remove the System Key at the proper time. Step 4 Naming the Receiver. With new equipment, the display will read, Unnamed Receiver, the receiver must be given a name. This will be the first receiver that was connected to the System Key. The receivers will appear in the same order they were entered. The blinking curser is your prompt to enter the name you wish to give this receiver. Type in the name using the letter keys on the left keypad or the number keys on the right keypad, or a combination of both. Example: Pressing the key labeled A B C once will display an A, pressing the key again will display a B, etc. When entering the name of the receiver, enter each letter or number. Note: If two consecutive letters in the name are on the same key, you will need to use the Right Arrow key to advance the cursor. The Left Arrow key corrects an error; continued pressing of the Left Arrow key will continue to backspace. Press Yes when done. If valid, display will acknowledge and

5 confirm receiver by displaying Name Accepted. When choosing a name for the receiver you will want to select the equipment by a name that is easily recognizable by anyone who might operate the equipment. This procedure will need to be done for each Receiver until the display indicates Ready. Note: Once all Receivers are named you may press the No key to escape to the main functions, such as Create a Group or Select a Group. Step 5 Create a Group Press the Create Group key. The display will read New Name then the cursor will appear in the display. Select a name that is easily recognizable and basic. In a High School gym you might choose Varsity Bskball. This group would include all the equipment that is used in a varsity game. You might choose Freshmen Bskball. This group might include only the scoreboards and equipment used during a freshman game. Enter the Group Name in the same manner used to name the receiver, above. Press Yes when done. The display will read Name Accepted then Ready. Step 6 Add Receivers to A Group The receivers named in Step 3 now must be added to the group created in Step 4. Press Select Group. If only one group has been created, that name will be displayed. If there are multiple groups in the system, press the Select Group key until the group you wish to add the receivers to is displayed. Press Add Rcvr. The name of a receiver will be displayed, if you wish to add this receiver to this group press Yes. The display will read Receiver Added. Continue adding receivers as desired. If a receiver is displayed that you do not wish to add to the group, press Add Rcvr again, the next Receiver will be displayed. If all receivers in the system have been added to a group, the display will read, There are no valid receivers for this function. Press any key to continue Press any key to return to the Ready prompt. Step 7 Confirming the Set UP Press Select Group. Group name(s) will be displayed, continue pressing key to select the group you wish to review. Press Show Group Rcvrs. Continue pressing the Show Group Rcvrs key and all the receivers included in your selected group, will be displayed followed by End of List. Do not skip this step. Step 8 Saving Changes to the System Press the key Save Changes to System. Display will read Do you want to save data to the System Key? Yes or No, Press Yes The display will read Saving System Data and the Yellow LED on the System Key will flash. When the data transfer is completed the Yellow LED will stop flashing. The display will

6 read Data Saved. Press any key to continue. After pressing any key the display will return to Ready. Step 9 Exiting the system. Press the Quit key on the overlay, display will read Do you want to Quit, Yes or No Press Yes the display will prompt you to turn the control Off and remove the System Key. If any changes have been made to the System you will be prompted to Save Changes. After all equipment is programmed, install the receivers per the Scoreboard Installation Instructions.

10 Troubleshooting Problem MPCW-6 display reads; This control is unable to receive data. Please verify that any Receivers you are attempting to use are turned on, then cycle the power on this control. Solution This control has been turned on for over five minutes and no model code has been entered. As an operational feature this control is using bandwidth that could be used by other Nevco equipment. Either turn control off, if not needed, or turn the control off then on. Wait for model code prompt and enter the desired model code. Problem The System Key has been lost or has lost data. Solution To restore data from the controls permanent memory to a System Key, enter the Model code 851 using any overlay. Prompts will instruct you to insert System Key in either hand-held switch socket. The Yellow LED will flash while data is being transferred. The Green LED on the System Key will illuminate when data is transferred. If you own more than one MPCW-6 control, spare System Keys were shipped to you. If not, contact the Nevco Service Department to purchase a replacement.
