The core of the BES X scoring system is composed by two units: the 4HD/5HD-HUB and the 4HD/5HD-CPU
units. Install this couple of units for each pair of lanes present in the bowling center, as explained in this
manual.
1.1 - 4HD-HUB and 5HD-HUB
IMPORTANT NOTE: the 5HD-HUB unit, P/N: 288250025, is supported by ConquerorPRO version 12.13.06
or higher.
The 4HD-HUB and the 5HD-HUB are the interfaces between the 4HD/5HD-CPU, the LCOM devices
(pinspotter interfaces, camera, etc…) and all the other 4HD/5HD devices (such as the console) with the
scoring network. The main functionalities of these units are to act as a network hub and supply power for
all the devices connected to it, except for the main (or slave) scoring network switch connected to the N1
connector, that does not take power from the 4HD/5HD-HUB unit, so the turning on or off of these units
(by the plugging or unplugging of the power cord) will result in the turning on or off of the entire pair of
lanes. These units have to be installed on the rear side of the curtain wall (or on the aisle between each pair
of pinspotters, if 90 XLi with CE safety kit are present).
There are two different versions for the 4HD-HUB unit. The last version is called “4HD-HUB Rev.3”. The
main difference between the 4HD-HUB Rev.3 unit and the previous versions is the absence of the D1 and
D2 ports on the 4HD-HUB Rev.3. During this manual we will refer to the “4HD-HUB Rev.3” as “4HD-HUB”
for simplicity.
1.1.1 - Installation notes
The 4HD/5HD-HUB is the input/output device for the scoring system.
This unit communicates with the front desk via a standard network by the N1 connector and is connected
to all other devices by a standard network with POE (Power Over Ethernet). NEVER connect, for any reason,
a standard network device (such as a network switch) to a port different than the N1 port. Connecting a
standard network device to a port different than N1 may result in major damages for the device or for the
4HD/5HD-HUB unit itself.
The 4HD/5HD-HUB unit must be installed on the curtain wall, between the pair of pinspotters, in an easily
accessible position.
If the installation on the curtain wall is not possible, the 4HD/5HD-HUB unit can be placed on the wall
behind the pinspotters.
If 90 XLi pinspotters with safety kit are present, install the 4HD/5HD-HUB on the panel located at the end of
the aisle present between each pair of pinspotter, as explained in the table T.20.083.
The connection between the 4HD/5HD-HUB and the 4HD/5HD-CPU or the console are made with different
cables according to the distance between the units:
Up to 50 m (up to 150 ft.): one AWG-24 Cat. 5e network cable;
More than 50 m (more than 150 ft.): one solid AWG-23 Cat. 6 cable.
These cables are provided by QubicaAMF.
