Section 2:
DSTI Setup
In order for DakStats Baseball to output RTD, the user must have installed the Daktronics Scoring-
Timing Interface (DSTI). The DSTI software is pre-configured by Daktronics and cannot be altered at
the installation site. The end-user must address desired configuration changes in DSTI through
Daktronics. Refer to System Integration of the DSTI (ED-13650) for more information on installing
and setting up the DSTI.
This section covers the steps that are needed in order for DakStats to communicate with DSTI.
2.1 DakStats/DSTI Messaging
The default setting is that the DakStats
Baseball program is on the same
computer as the DSTI program (Figure 1).
Use the following procedure if DakStats
and DSTI are on separate machines:
1. On the DakStats computer,
browse to “C:/Program
Files/Daktronics”.
2. Right-click the Daktronics folder,
and then select Properties.
3. Click the Sharing tab.
4. Click Share this folder.
5. Click OK.
6. In DSTI, go to Edit > DakStats Messaging, and then select Different Machine.
7. In DakStats, go to Configure > Messaging, and then select Different Machine.
2.2 Selecting DakStats Interface and Database
DSTI must point to the correct sport interface and DakStats database.
1. In DSTI, make sure the Sport is set to Baseball/Softball and
that the Interface is set to DakStats (Figure 2).
2. Go to Edit > Data Configuration.
3. The Database Path must be set to
“X:\Daktronics\DakStats Baseball”
where X represents the
appropriate local or
network drive (Figure 3).
