IR game
To start the game in IR, follow these steps:
1) Select Game type in IR game on both devices. Other parameters
(Throw type and Difficulty) may differ. Thus, each player plays using his
own adjustments.
2) Place both devices within direct sight to contact by IR port.
3) The player who wishes to start the game first should press the Start new
game button. This player is considered as 1st player. Firstly, the game
starts and show: Friendly handheld searching... message appears. If this
message remains for a long time, it means the rival's device is out of IR
port range. Change reciprocal placement of your devices and try again.
4) After the 1st player detects the rival's device, the Waiting for reply...
message appears. This means the second player (considered in the game as
2nd player) can connect. It must be mentioned that you can
simultaneously initiate the beginning of the game on both devices, however
it is not recommended.
5) The second player presses the Start new game button. After the first
player's device is detected the Waiting for the remote player.... message
appears and the first player will be able to perform his bowls. Each bowl of
your opponent is displayed on your screen. Please note that the throw is
displayed with a slight lag (not more than one second), which is quite
normal.
6) After the first player has closed the frame they switch over moves. This
time the Waiting for the remote player.... message appears on the second
player's display.
