1. Open the appropriate TAS program and select In-game scoring.
For TAS Volleyball Only: Select Options and set Full subs to Yes.
Press [Enter] to go through each field until the menu closes;
pressing [ESC] will not save the changes.
2. Go to Game or Match Setup >
Remote display > Terminal type.
Under Device Type select Scoreboard.
DO NOT select Daktronics.
3. Return to the main application screen,
and select In-game scoring again.
4. Since Auto-connect is turned on, a notification to start the
interface will now appear. Press [Y] and then [Enter].
Auto-connect tells TAS to begin updating the “comfile”
which sends data to DSTI.
5. Open a competition by going to File > New game. Game
information can be entered under Game Setup > Teams.
6. Enter a play to create the "comfile" output that will be used by
TasComms32. Plays are entered by selecting Scoresheet > Input.
7. Make sure the comfile is being updated:
a. Locate the comfile in the program folder for the Stat Crew
software.
b. In Explorer, go to View > Details and look at the modified
date of the file. The modified date should reflect the time
when the game was opened.
8. Skip ahead to TasComms32 Setup.
