Basic Operation

Multiple Controller System with Single Broadcast Group

In a multiple controller system with a single broadcast group (Error! Reference source not
found.
), there may be one console for each scoreboard and/or one master controller that can
run every scoreboard at one time or take control of a specific scoreboard. An example of this
type of system is a softball complex with individual scoreboards on several different fields.
















Multiple controller systems typically use Broadcast 1 and Channel 1 for the first controller
and Channels 2-8 for all remaining controllers. All radio receivers in the system must be set
to Broadcast 1 (BCAST 1).
