Radio Speed of Pitch Configurations

Kit #1: Remote Radar Gun

In this configuration, the All Sport console receives speed-of-pitch information from a
remotely-located radar gun. The All Sport then transmits the radar data directly to a
scoreboard via wireless radio signal. Refer to the instructions below and Drawing B-159255
in Appendix A to set up the system.

1. Connect the 25-pin to 25-pin signal cable (W-1247) between the J6 port on the back of

the All Sport console and the 25-pin J-box (0A-1067-0056).

2. Route one-pair cable minimum (W-1077) from the 25-pin J-box to a

connected to TB1 on the signal converter (red wire to 1 CL1+, black wire to 2 CL1-).
Plug the signal converter into a 120 VAC power source.

4. Connect the 9-pin to 9-pin cable (0A-1000-0121) between the J1 jack on the signal

converter and the 9-pin plug on the 30' (9 m) data cable (W-2453).

5. Connect the data cable to the 9-pin jack on the radar gun handle. The power adapter

(A-3010) may also be plugged into the handle and a 120/240 VAC power source, or
the gun may run off internal rechargeable batteries.

6. Ensure that any radar gun menu settings are properly configured for baseball.

Refer to the documentation included with the radar gun.
