This document will describe the process for setting up and using a Sportzcast device (ScoreHub or ScoreLink) with NCAA LiveStats for Basketball.
ScoreHub and ScoreLink devices will work properly. Older ScoreBot 1000 devices will not yet power the automated clock in NCAA LiveStats. We recommend testing the functionality in a testing environment before attempting to use the automatic clock in a real game.
Using the automatic clock function is entirely optional. To run your clock manually, simply select “Manual” from the Live Scoreboard Data item on the System Check screen.

Configuring the Sportzcast device
ScoreHub
ScoreHub is the most advanced Sportzcast device that acts as a mini computer/server that streams the scoreboard data into the network.
It has to have network connected to it, otherwise it can not be accessed.
On device’s display, there is status displayed of the service:
There is an IP address visible, also above the IP address the selected scoreboard type is shown.
The dots with labels indicate if there is a connection and if it is working properly.
Green - everything is ok.
Grey - not connected.
Yellow - connected, but data not usable.
In order to configure (scoreboard selection, ip addresses config) you can connect to the specified IP via web browser (in this example: 192.168.1.140) and will be asked for a password to enter into it. The password is last 4 characters of the UID value (in example case - 035B)
The website, once logged in, looks like this:

On this page, it is mandatory to make sure the appropriate Scoreboard field is selected. (This can be done only once per device, since it keeps the memory). In this example case, OES ISC9000 scoreboard is used and it is used for basketball, so OES Basketball scoreboard is selected to properly use the data.
After selecting the Scoreboard field, Load Scoreboard Config button must be clicked - it will reboot the ScoreHub device.
After attaching the device cable to ScoreHub device and loading the correct scoreboard, the device UI should look like this:

Notice the green dot next to Scoreboard Data field - it means, that ScoreHub device is receiving the data from the scoreboard. Also, notice the three black boxes in the right bottom corner - they are showing the scoreboard scores and scoreboard clock. (AWAY, CLOCK, HOME)
Also, the Cloud support is not mandatory for usage with LiveStats.
If there is incorrect scoreboard selected for score hub - the Scoreboard Data will be marked in yellow (as in the example below -actually OES Scoreboard was used, but incorrectly selected Fairplay).
