System Overview 3
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The Brunswick Sync scoring system consists of several pieces of equipment that can be divided into
two subsystems; the Scoring System and the Control System.
The scoring system includes the electronic assemblies located in the bowler and pinsetter areas. These
assemblies control the pinsetter, perform automatic scoring functions, provide the bowler with input
capabilities, and display information about the game in progress.
The scoring system is available with keypad or full display touchscreens and overhead screens equipped
with Display Controllers that provide a high definition (HD) scorer display. Peripheral Controller boxes
connect to lane pair components such as the pinsetters, pin cameras, Vector keypads, and automated
bumpers as needed.
For centers that are not running a Kiosk mode, the control system consists of one or more computers
located at the control desk and as needed various other locations around the bowling center. The main
function of the control system is to provide the bowling center personnel convenient control of the
scoring system and lanes from the control desk as well as point-of-sale (POS) terminals for other areas
of the center. For centers running Kiosk mode, additional control desk computers and POS equipment
are not used. Limited control functions are available through the touchscreens at the lanes.
An optional video distribution system delivers multiple high definition and/or standard definition video
channels to the overhead monitors.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
The following terms are used in this manual. To better understand the information presented in the
manual you should familiarize yourself with these terms.
CAT5e (Category 5e) - A twisted pair cable used for carrying signals. Cat5e is an enhanced version of
Category 5 that adheres to more stringent standards. It is capable of transmitting data at speeds of up to
1000 Mbps (1 Gigabit per second). In the Sync system it is used in an Ethernet network to interconnect
the Control desk computer(s), Peripheral Controller boxes, overhead Display Controllers and the
bowler’s input consoles.
Comport - Connectors on a computer that allow it to communicate with other devices using serial
communication. These connections are also referred to as serial ports or RS-232 ports. Multiple
comports in a computer are referred to by number such as com1 or com2. Also refer to Serial
Communication.
Peripheral Controller - A box located near the pinsetter on each lane pair that provides multiple
functions for the lane pair. It is responsible for interfacing pin cameras, controlling machine functions
such as on/off and reset, and handling signals needed for scoring such as foul, sweep switch, and ball
detector signals. It can control AMF short cycle and automated bumpers as needed. It also provides
power and communication to optional Vector keypads.
Ethernet - A protocol that specifies how computers send information to one another in a network.
Ethernet Switch - Device that is the central point of connection that allows network devices to
communicate with each other. In the Sync scoring system multiple switches are used to connect the
Peripheral Controllers, Display Controllers, Sync consoles and the Control system computer(s). Also
refer to Cat5.
RS-232 - The most popular type of serial communication used by computers. This type of
communication allows a computer to talk to a single specific device through a 9-pin connector called a
comport. Each device that the computer “talks” to will have its own dedicated comport.
RS-485 - A type of serial communication that allows a computer to talk to multiple devices using one
“shared” comport. Also refer to Serial Communication.
Serial Communication - A popular means of transmitting data between a computer and another
device. In the Sync system two types of serial communication are used; RS-232 and RS-485. Also
refer to RS-232 and RS-485.
System Overview 5
CONTROL DESK EQUIPMENT
The Sync control system for non-Kiosk systems consists of one or more computers and POS
assemblies located at the control desk, and in some cases, a computer in the office. Sync also provides
the bowling center personnel convenient control of the scoring system while keeping track of the
financial transactions and bowling activity in the center. In addition, it allows the center additional
security control for the system, additional reporting of bowling activity, and an integrated league
record and tournament program . Refer to figures titled: Sync Configuration 1, Sync Configuration 2,
Sync Configuration 3, Sync Configuration 4 and Sync Configuration with Sync Touchpads or Vector
Keypads.
For centers running Kiosk mode, control desk computers and POS equipment are not used. Limited
control functions are available through the touchscreens at the lanes. Refer to figures titled: Sync

12 System Overview
Sync Scorer System The Brunswick Sync scoring system consists of several pieces of equipment.
The main components in the scoring system include:
• Display Controllers
• Peripheral Controller Boxes
• Bowlers Consoles
Display Controller
Each Display Controller is capable of providing HD scoring video to the overhead monitors on a lane
pair.
Peripheral Controller
The Peripheral Controller handles multiple functions for a lane pair such as interfacing the pin camera,
controlling machine functions such as on/off and reset, and connecting signals needed for scoring such
as foul, sweep switch, and ball detector signals. It can control AMF short cycle and automated bumpers
as needed. It also provides power and communication to optional Vector keypads.
Bowler Consoles
The Sync bowler’s consoles can be equipped with standard membrane keypads, touchscreen keypads,
or full touchscreens capable of displaying the bowling scoresheet. Centers upgrading from Vector
scoring have the option of re-using their Vector keypads instead of Sync bowler’s consoles. Reference
the Sync Scoring System figures on the following pages.

22 System Overview
BOWLER’S AREA
The bowler’s area contains all of the components that allow the bowlers to interface with the scoring
system. Components that are found in the bowler’s area include:
•
Overhead Monitors
•
Vector Keypads or Sync Consoles
•
Display Controllers
•
Ethernet Switch(es)
Overhead Monitors
The overhead monitors provided by Brunswick are individual wide screen Samsung LED Monitors
equipped with tuners.
The monitors display the high definition scorer video produced by the Display Controllers. The
monitors can also display video originating from the optional TV Distribution Center. A TV-Only
version of the monitor that displays only the video from the Distribution Center is also available.
Vector Keypads
The system is designed to allow the re-use of Vector keypads if they were previously installed in a
bowling center. The keypad is a full function keyboard that allows the bowler to enter all information
needed to begin bowling or change/correct information once bowling has begun. The use of a keypad
gives the bowler complete control over bowling functions without the cost of a lower display.
Sync Consoles
The Sync Consoles are available as a Touchpad (keyboard) or full screen tablet interface. The Touchpad
allows the bowler to enter all information needed to begin bowling or change/correct information once
bowling has begun from a touch-sensitive membrane type keypad. The full screen tablet interface is
equipped with a touch-sensitive LCD screen that allows the bowler to interact with the scoring system
and provides a lower screen that displays the scorer video.
Display Controllers
The Display Controllers are behind the left lane overhead monitors. The controller produces high
definition scorer video and controls the on/off and video input selection for the overhead monitors of a
lane pair.
Ethernet Switch(es)
The Ethernet Switch(es) in the bowlers area allow communication to branch to Display Controllers and
Sync Consoles.
System Overview 23
PINSETTER AREA
The pinsetter area contains equipment used to interface the pinsetter and office computer to the lane
pair. This equipment is typically mounted on a panel attached to the curtain wall. Equipment may
include:
•
Ethernet Switch
•
Peripheral Controller
•
Pin Cameras
•
GS Interface
Ethernet Switch
The Ethernet Switch allows communication from the control desk computer(s) to branch to the
individual Peripheral Controller boxes and to other switches. The switch splits communication
into 24 branches allowing one switch to receive communication from the control system, provide
communication for up to 21 Peripheral Controller boxes, and pass the communication to the switches
for the Display Controller and Sync Consoles. The switch is located on the curtain wall.
Peripheral Controller
The Peripheral Controller boxes are mounted on the curtain wall at each lane pair and provide
connections and control of a variety of lane pair components. For A-2 and AMF pinsetters installations,
it interfaces pin cameras, foul units, and other pinsetter signals needed for scoring. For GS installations
it communicates directly with the pinsetters to obtain scoring information and provide pinsetter control.
The Peripheral Controller is also capable of controlling automated bumpers for a lane pair as well as
connecting to Vector Keypads.
Pin Cameras
The Pin cameras are mounted, one per lane pair, to the ball return lane foundation. They are used to
obtain images of standing pins for non-GS series pinsetters installations. The images are used by the
Peripheral Controller to determine the scores for the lane pair.
GS Interface
The GS Interface box converts RS-485 communication protocol to HDLC (High Level Data Link
Control). HDLC was the communication protocol used by Gamesetter box in GS-10, GS92 and GS-96
pinsetters, and the Consolidated Low Voltage box in non-direct connect GS-98 pinsetters.
24 System Overview
CONTROL DESK/OFFICE AREA
The control desk/office area contains the equipment needed to remotely control the Sync scoring
system, provide point of sale (POS) capability, keep track of financial data, and interface leagues and
tournaments to the scorers. It may consist of:
•
Computers complete with Monitor, Keyboard, and Mouse
•
Cash Drawer
•
Audio Control Unit
•
Scoresheet Printer(s)
•
Receipt Printer
•
Bar Code Reader
Computer(s)
The Sync control system consisting of one or more computer (PC) located at the control desk running
the Windows 7 or 2012 Server operating system and Sync control software.
The PC has a keyboard, monitor, and mouse connected to it. Additional equipment attached to the
computer can include a receipt printer, cash drawer, customer pole display, and bar code reader.
Cash Drawer
The cash drawer opens automatically at the proper time giving the control desk operator a convenient
place to put money received during transaction. The drawer gets power to open from the receipt printer.
Audio Control Unit
The audio control unit is used in centers equipped with Sync Touchpads or Vector Keypads to adapt the
intercom to consoles The intercom handset that connects to the unit provides a convenient “telephone”
style communication. Two intercom lines are provided allowing the control desk to talk to two different
lanes at the same time. It is not used in centers equipped with Sync Tablet Consoles.
Scoresheet Printer
The scoresheet printer allows the control desk operator to obtain a hard copy of a bowler’s scores.
Scoresheets can be printed for the current game as well previous games.
Receipt Printer
The receipt printer allows the control desk operator to obtain a print out of a financial transaction. It
also supplies voltage to cash drawer so that it automatically opens at the conclusion of a financial
transaction.
Bar Code Reader
The bar code reader allows the use of bowler cards to simplify the tracking of frequent open play
bowlers. When a bowler’s card is scanned their information is retrieved from the Sync computer. The
bowler’s name is automatically sent to the console when they are assigned to a lane and their scores will
transfer back to the computer at the end of each game. It can also be used to scan an item’s barcode to
automatically obtain pricing as part of a sales transaction or coupons.
System Overview 25
SYSTEM SIGNALS
The signals used in the Sync scoring system can be divided into 2 types; Communication / Control and
Video.
Communication/Control
Communication between components in the Sync system is handled using either an Ethernet network or
a serial communication.
Ethernet provides communication between the control desk computer(s), the Sync consoles, the Display
Controllers and the Peripheral Controller boxes. Refer to the figures titled Sync Ethernet Cabling.
Serial communication allows a Peripheral Controller to communicate with components within the
lane pair. It is equipped with an RS-232 port to allow it to talk to Vector Keypads and RS-485 serial
communication ports to allow it to “talk” GS pinsetters and Brunswick Automated Bumpers.
The Display Controllers use RS-232 to turn the overhead monitors on/off and to switch video inputs.
Refer to the figure titled Sync Lane Pair Communication Cabling.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
The following terms are used in this section. To better understand the information presented in the
section you should familiarize yourself with these terms.
CAT5e (Category 5e) - A twisted pair cable used for carrying signals. CAT5e is an enhanced version of
Category 5 that adheres to more stringent standards. It is capable of transmitting data at speeds of up to
1000 Mbps (1 Gigabit per second). In the Sync system it is used in an Ethernet network to interconnect
the Control Desk computer(s), Peripheral Controller boxes, overhead Display Controllers and the
bowler’s input consoles.
Peripheral Controller - A box located near the pinsetter on each lane pair that provides multiple
functions for the lane pair. It is responsible for interfacing pin cameras, controlling machine functions
such as on/off and reset, and handling signals needed for scoring such as foul, sweep switch, and ball
detector signals. It can control AMF short cycle and automated bumpers, as needed. It also provides
power and communication to optional Vector keypads.
Ethernet - A protocol that specifies how computers send information to one another.
Ethernet Switch - Device that is the central point of connection that enable network devices to
communicate with each other. In the Sync scoring system multiple switches are used to connect the
Peripheral Controllers, Display Controllers, Sync consoles and the Control system computer(s). Also
refer to CAT5e.
IP Address - A unique number assigned to a computer or device to identify it on a network. The
number can be assigned to the device as needed from a central point called a DHCP server (dynamic) or
set at the device itself (static).
Port - A port can be described as a physical connection on a computer, ethernet switch or other
electronic component that allows information to be sent or received from another computer or
electronic device. In networking a port describes one of the 65,535 “channels” available within a IP
address that allow a device to send and receive information.
RS-232 - The most popular type of serial communication used by computers. This type of
communication allows a computer to talk to a single specific device through a 9-pin connector called a
comport. Each device that the computer “talks” to will have its own dedicated comport.
RS-485 - A type of serial communication that allows a computer to talk to a multiple devices using one
“shared” comport. Also refer to Serial Communication.
Serial Communication - A popular means of transmitting data between a computer and another
device. In the Sync system two types of serial communication are used; RS-232 and RS-485. Also
refer to RS-232 and RS-485.
4 Sync Scorer Components
SYNC SCORING OVERVIEW
The Sync scoring system includes electronic components located in the bowler and pinsetter areas.
Together, these assemblies perform automatic scoring functions, provide the bowler with input
capabilities, control the pinsetter, and display information about the game in progress. Refer to figures
titled Sync Configuration Overview and Vector Keypad Configuration Overview.
The system is available with Touchpads (keypads) or with full display touchscreen bowler’s consoles.
Both types of consoles allow the bowler to enter all information needed to begin bowling, change or
correct information once bowling has begun and access special features of the scoring system. The
full display touchscreen console is also capable of showing the bowler’s scoresheet screen. Centers
upgrading from Vector scoring have the option of re-using their Vector keypads instead of Sync
bowler’s consoles.
Overhead monitors for each lane pair are equipped with a computer called a Display Controller. This
controller provides scoring functionality and produces a high definition (HD) scorer display for the
screens.
Peripheral Controller boxes mounted on the curtain wall connect to lane pair components such as the
pinsetters, pin cameras, Vector keypads or Sync Touchpads (keypads), and automated bumpers as
needed.

PERIPHERAL CONTROLLER
The Peripheral Controller provides multiple functions for a lane pair dependent on the pinsetter in use
and optional devices that may be installed on the lane pair.
The board contains circuits to allow communication to GS series pinsetters, Brunswick automated
bumpers and Sync Touchpad (keypad) or optional Vector keyboard.
For non GS pinsetter installations it supplies power to the pin camera and processes the camera’s video,
turns the pinsetters on/off, cycles the pinsetters as needed, interfaces the ball detectors and foul unit to
the scoring system.
The board also has the capability to control AMF automated bumpers and provide signals for AMF
pinspotter chassis equipped with the short cycle functionality. Version 7 also contains circuitry and
connectors on the circuit board to expand functionality in the future. Refer to figure titled: Peripheral
Controller Box, Distribution Board 7 Connectors and Components, Distribution Board 7 LEDs, and
Distribution Board 7 Jumpers.

CONSOLE ELECTRONICS
The bowler’s console allows the bowler to enter all information needed to begin bowling, change or
correct information once bowling has begun and access special features of the scoring system. Sync
bowler’s consoles can be equipped with a standard keypads (Touchpads) or full touchscreens (Tablets)
capable of displaying the bowling scoresheet. Centers upgrading from Vector scoring have the option of
re-using their Vector keypads instead of Sync bowler’s consoles.
The consoles can be mounted to tables or pedestal mounted to the floor. The type bowler’s console and
the mounting method determines the interface board needed to connect the console to the rest of the
system.

Sync Interface - Dual Pedestal Tablets
The interface board located in dual tablet pedestals connects two touchscreen tablets to the pedestal’s
speakers and microphones and provides 12VDC to power the tablets. Two similar interface boards are
available with the difference being the addition of RJ-45 connectors used for routing the ethernet cat5e
network cables. This board with the added connectors provide a simple pass-through for the network
signal allowing centers that upgrade their tablets to the most recent model to use their existing network
cabling. Refer to the figures titled Sync Interface - Dual Pedestal Tablets (Non Upgrade Version) and

Tablet Cleaning
The tablet surface should be kept free of dirt, dust, finger prints, or other materials that could lower the
screen visibility. For fingerprint smudges, dust, and lint, wipe the screen gently using a dry microfiber
cloth. Never use a paper towel or other paper-based towels as they can leave scratches on the screen.
For dirtier screens, use a small amount of water (don’t add soap or anything else to the water) to make a
corner of the cloth slightly damp.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use harsh chemicals, including Windex, anything with ammonia, or
alcohol-based cleaners. If a liquid is necessary, you should only use a small amount of water
on the cloth. NEVER use abrasive cloths, paper towels, or tissue paper, which can scratch the
touchscreen. The scratches will be small and build up over time, damaging and dulling the
screen. Instead, use microfiber cloths, which are specially designed to clean sensitive surfaces.

Sync Touchpads
The Sync Touchpads are full function keyboards that allows the bowler to enter all information needed
to begin bowling or change/correct information once bowling has begun. The use of a keypad gives
the bowler complete control over bowling functions without the added cost of a lower display. The
Touchpads are available in floor-mounted dual or single pedestal configurations or can be mounted
individually to the table tops of certain Brunswick designed furniture.
For dual pedestal installations, a Touchpad Interface PCB, mounted inside the pedestal, along with the
Touchpad Cable Interface board, located under the lanes near the ball lift, provide a convenient and
flexible way to route cabling. Because of this cable routing method, only a couple of connectors on the
Controller board are used for dual pedestals.
When the touchpad is individually mounted the connections on the Controller board are used to route
the cables lane to lane. Because of this, most of the connections are needed when the touchpad are
mounted individually using a single pedestal or table mount.
