Configuring Daktronics Scoring and Timing Interface
(DSTI) Software
The DSTI software translates information from DakStats programs into a
format that other hardware and software can use. DSTI must be running
for the interface to operate correctly.
1. Install DSTI from the instillation CD you received with the
All Sport Interface Kit on the same computer as your
DakStats software.
2. After installation, go to Start > Programs >
Daktronics > DSTI > DSTI to start the
DSTI program.
3. If necessary, maximize the DSTI screen.
Select Basketball, Football or Volleyball
in the Sport drop down box.
4. Select DakStats under Interface.
5. Go to Edit > Data Configuration.
6. On the Data Configuration screen, select the appropriate
DakStats Sport.
7. Click Browse to locate the proper Database Path. The default
folder is
“C:\Daktronics\DakStats Basketball” (or Football or
Volleyball).
8. Click OK to close the data configuration window.
9. Go to Edit > Configure All Sport.
10. Check the Port to confirm that the COM is set as the same
number as the COM Port on your computer.
11. Click OK, and then minimize the DSTI application.
Using the All Sport Interface for DakStats
With DSTI installed and configured, using the interface is simple.
Note: DSTI must be running for the All Sport Interface to function.
If closed, communication with your display controller will stop.
You may configure DSTI to start automatically from DakStats by
going to Configure > Auto Start Interface.
