The control’s display will ask: DO YOU WANT TO USE SHOT CLOCKS? ‘YES’ OR ‘NO’. Answer YES to
activate the shot clock control system.
The three position rocker switch on the RCS-6 will be used to reset the shot/delay clocks to a preset shot time or to a
preset out of bounds time.

direction will reset the shot time to the same value.)
