13.1- DESCRIPTION
The mechanism for the initialization of cards, to be used in competition mode, consists in
running a program in a standard PC, which has connected an adaptor programmer card to
a parallel port.
13.2- HOW TO INITIALIZE CARDS
The process is the following:
A KEY card should be introduced that allows access to initialize cards. Each time the
program is executed, it is obligatory to insert the KEY card. Initially, when the program
starts will ask for the key card.
Once in place and verified, it should be removed in order to insert new cards or modify
existing ones.
When inserting a card, the PC will let us know if we are initializing by showing the assigned player
number.
To program the player number shown on the screen, press the ‘G’ key.
If it is not initialized, the player number shown on the screen will be automatically programmed.
When removing a card, the number will increase automatically.
To modify the number, press the ‘N’ key.
To exit the program, press the “ESC” key once or more depending on the status of the program.
