You should also be familiar with the information in COMMON FUNCTIONS on page
13 before continuing with this chapter. That chapter discusses several functions
of the MP-70/50 that are important to its operation in a basketball game, such as
operating the clock and updating the score.
ENTERING TEAM LINEUPS (MP-70 ONLY)
If you have activated the foul memory feature as instructed on FOUL MEMORY on
page 26, enter player numbers in one of the ways discussed below.
If you pressed YES at the ENTER LINEUP prompt in the sport-specific
settings for basketball, the MP-70 prompts you to enter player numbers at the
beginning of each new game. (See ENTER LINEUP (MP-70 ONLY) on page 26) If
you have entered player numbers for a previous game and will be using the
same numbers again, press NO at the ENT.H.LINEUP and ENT.V.LINEUP
prompts. Otherwise, press YES at these prompts. Then enter up to 15 player
numbers per team, pressing ENTER after each.
Note: The scoreboard blanks while you enter team lineups at the start of a new
game. When you have finished entering player numbers, scoring data is
again visible.
If you pressed NO at the ENTER LINEUP prompt, the MP-70 automatically
records up to fifteen player numbers per team as you track player fouls or points
during the game.
CONTROLLING THE POSSESSION LIGHTS
Press the NEXT.POSS. key to alternate between the
home and visitor possession lights. If you want to turn
both lights off, press NEXT.POSS. and then
press SHIFT + BLANK .
CONTROLLING THE BONUS LIGHTS
The HOME BONUS and VISITOR BONUS keys
each provide these three options: BONUS ON,
DOUBLE BONUS, or BONUS OFF. Press these keys
repeatedly to cycle through the three options.
SETTING THE SHOT TIMER (MP-70 ONLY)
You can program and store two different default shot timer clock durations (reset
times) in permanent memory. This is especially useful when games requiring
different timer clock reset values are played back to back, for example, a junior
varsity girls’ contest followed by a varsity boys’ game.
