ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

We recommend a qualified electrician perform the needed electrical connections to ensure proper operation of the model 2057 player statistics panel.  These connections include connecting the model 2057 player statistics panel to a power source, installing the ScoreLink 200 sets or the control cables, and connecting the control consoles.

Power Connection

The model 2057 player statistics panel requires 120 VAC service at the wall receptacle to operate properly.  Maximum power consumption: 36 Watts.  The model 2057 player statistics panel has a 6 ft. attached power cord located at the top of the cabinet.  Plug the power cord into a grounded NEMA 5-15R receptacle.  The receptacle should be controlled by a separate circuit breaker so that the model 2057 player statistics panel can be turned off without turning off other electrical devices in the facility, such as lighting.  Figure 3 shows the electrical connection points on the model 2057 player statistics panel.

The SCORELINK 200 RF MODEM SYSTEM is intended to eliminate the control cable between the model 2057 player statistics panel and the control console.  If you have purchased this accessory, disregard the section of this manual titled Control Cable Installation.  Two sets of transmitters and receivers programmed on different channels are required for a set of model 2057 player statistics panels.  The basketball scoreboard and shot timers should be on a different ScoreLink 200 channel than either model 2057 player statistics panel.  Refer to the SCORELINK 200 RF MODEM SYSTEM OWNER’S HANDBOOK for installation instructions.

Control Cable Installation

A control cable must be installed for each model 2057 player statistics panel.  These cables must not be connected together at any point.  No cable lengths should exceed 1000 feet.  The control cables allow data to be transmitted from the control consoles to the model 2057 player statistics panels.  Each control cable has a ¼” stereo plug attached at the model 2057 player statistics panel end and a small junction box with a ¼” stereo jack mounted on the face plate at the control console end.  The junction box should be securely mounted within ten feet of the rear of the control console.  Most customers order the control cables with the junction boxes attached.  Some customers prefer to attach the junction boxes after the cables are installed.  Those customers must solder the control cables to the ¼”stereo jacks.  Figure 4 shows the control cable wire connection points on the rear of the ¼” stereo jack.

The ¼” stereo plug is inserted into the ¼” stereo jack mounted on top of the model 2057 player statistics panel.  Most customers order the control cables with the ¼” stereo plugs attached.  Some customers prefer to attach them after the cables are installed.  Those customers must solder the ¼” stereo plugs to the cables according to the figure 5.  Unscrew the stereo plug cover from the plug body to expose the contact pins.

Each 10 ft. extension cable has two molded ¼” stereo plugs attached to it.  Three cables are provided to connect the control consoles to the junction boxes.  The following steps describe how to connect the control consoles:

  1. Plug one end of an extension cable into the ¼” stereo jack on the junction box connected to the control cable for the guest team’s model 2057 player statistics panel or its ScoreLink 200 Transmitter, if purchased.
    1. Plug the other end into one of the ¼” stereo jacks mounted on the guest team’s 2057 control console back plate.
    2. Plug the guest team’s 2057 control console power cord into a grounded NEMA 5-15R 120 VAC receptacle.
    3. If a ScoreLink 200 RF MODEM SYSTEM is installed, plug a wall mount DC power supply into a grounded NEMA 5-15R 120 VAC receptacle and the male plug on the end of the attached cable into the Power jack on the Transmitter.
    4. Plug one end of another extension cable into the ¼” stereo jack on the junction box connected to the control cable for the home team’s model 2057 player statistics panel or its ScoreLink 200 Transmitter, if purchased.
      1. Plug the other end into one of the ¼” stereo jacks mounted on the home team’s 2057 control console back plate.
      2. Plug the home team’s 2057 control console power cord into a grounded NEMA 5-15R 120 VAC receptacle.
      3. If a ScoreLink 200 RF MODEM SYSTEM is installed, plug a wall mount DC power supply into a grounded NEMA 5-15R 120 VAC receptacle and the male plug on the end of the attached cable into the Power jack on the Transmitter.

Control Console Safety Warning

This product is equipped with a 3-wire grounding type plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin.  This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet.  This is a safety feature.  If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact a qualified electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.  Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding-type plug.
