How do you choose a scoreboard?

El.Va.S. produces scoreboards for all sports and all types of sports hall, from small gyms to large arenas. But how do you choose the scoreboard best suited to your needs? First, it is necessary to take into consideration that the various federations regulate this aspect in the technical regulations. After looking at the regulations, the second aspect to take into consideration is the distance there is between the point where the scoreboard is installed and the farthest point where the data should be read. Once the distance has been measured, we need to consider this simple rule: a character 10 centimeters high can be read up to 40 meters away. If we take for example an ADV300 scoreboard where the smallest character is 20 centimeters the maximum reading distance is 80 meters. Finally, the technical regulations of the various federations also regulate what data must be demonstrated on the scoreboard. Generally, the regulations indicate that in small and medium-sized gyms it is sufficient for the scoreboard to show the team’s overall data, since provincial and regional level competitions are usually played in these types of facilities. In medium-sized and large arenas, scoreboards must also show individual player data.

How many scoreboards to install in a sports hall?

There is no definite rule. The first element to be considered is that the scoreboard must be conveniently visible to both the court judges and the audience. When this condition cannot be met with only one scoreboard two or more are installed. In these cases there must be a main scoreboard showing all the necessary information installed in a position clearly visible to the public, a second repeater scoreboard that may also have show less information than the main one, and the latter must be installed in a position clearly visible to teams and court judges.

When is it better to use wired data cable instead of wireless data transmission?

Data transmission via wireless frequencies is a good alternative in small and medium-sized sports hall where there is little distance between the console and the scoreboard. The latter is an optimal solution when plant works are not desired to create a wired connection. Our small and medium-sized scoreboards all have data transmission wireless. However, it must be kept in mind that in some cases wireless transmission may not work perfectly for various reasons. In all cases where it is possible, we prefer to recommend a wired, so as to ensure a more reliable dialogue between scoreboard and console.

How to choose the console?

In some of our models it is possible to choose between two different types of consoles. The ADV060 console is the cheapest and is suitable in cases where multiple people may use it, such as in gyms used by both schools and sports clubs. The ADV070 console is the most comprehensive, allowing even scoreboards with personal information of players to be managed. It offers an excellent experience and ease of use thanks to the large touch screen that shows all data in real time.

I own equipment from other brands, can I still buy El.Va.S. equipment?

Of course!!! If you own equipment from other companies, you can still buy our products. However, you must consider that the two products will not be able to be controlled from the same console. For example, if you already own a scoreboard of another brand and want to purchase a pair of our timers, you can do so by requesting the independent console when purchasing. The only case where we cannot help you is if you own another company’s scoreboard and want to add a second repeater scoreboard. In that case you cannot match one of our products.
