Water Polo: Main scoreboard horn will not sound.

Potential Symptoms

  • Main scoreboard horn will not sound in game mode and manual horn will not function either.
    • SW-2xxx horn will not sound in game mode.
  • Pace Clock horns work fine.  
  • Main Scoreboard horn works in test mode.

Environment

  • SW-2XXX
  • OmniSport 2000
    • Sport Mode=Water Polo
  • PC-2001

Cause

  • OmniSport is not set to correct number of scoreboard lines in the menu.

Resolution

  1. While in Water Polo mode, configure the OmniSport for the EXACT number of lines that display Lane/Place/Time information. (MENU - 3 2,1,1)
    • When setting the number of lines in the menu settings, don't get confused and include Home/Guest Score, Record Time and Heat/Event displays to the number of lines. 
  2. Address 40 for Stand Alone Single Line, doesn't output the horn bit.  For a Single line board address 41 will need to be used.
  • Note:  If wanting to separate the shot clock horn and the scoreboard horn, you will also need to set the horn control to INDEPENDENT.  (MENU - 3,1,6).  Reference the OmniSport 2000 Timing Console Manual, ED-13312 Water Polo Mode Operation>Horn Control section for details.  
  • The following example shows a number of lines equal to 4.
