Connects to standard hubs/switches using straight-through CAT5 cabling, standard network 
connection length limitation applies (300 feet). 
 
RF Base Station: Power Connection 
Connects to standard 110/120 volt outlet, use of UPS is highly recommended. 
 
RF Remote Transmitters 
Connects to the RF Base Station using straight-through CAT5 cabling, maximum length of 
cable is 150 feet.  This cable provides both data and power. 
 

 

The option to install RFServer is provided during a PowerServer install. 
Ensure that an RF Mode is allowed by the hardlock. 
An RF Mode must also be selected in PowerEdit. 
To enable RF in PowerEdit: 

•  At the Hall level, press the Settings button.  The Settings dialog will be displayed. 

• Press 

the 

Lil’Champ tab. 

• Select 

the 

RF Mode field. 

•  Select an option other than 1. Disabled. 

 
The RFServer service, pbkRFServer.exe, will start automatically when the PowerServer 
machine is started.  It can take up to 30 seconds for RFServer to begin sending out game 
events when a session starts.  If RFServer has to restart during a session for any reason, 
there could be a longer delay before transmitting as it processes previous game information. 
The Base Station uses a serial channel (the RS-232 connector on the rear panel) for 
logging. A Hyper Terminal (115200/8N1) program can be used to check Base Station 
firmware version as well as do basic troubleshooting.
