For troubleshooting purposes, we’ve compiled the following list of
situations you might encounter, along with some possible solutions.
a. The computer doesn’t react, behaves erratically, or “freezes”
during a game.
• Reinsert the batteries, or replace them with fresh alkalines.
• Static discharge may have caused a lock-up. Press into the
hole marked ACL to reset the unit (see Section 11.1).
b. The display is dim and/or difficult to read.
• Replace the batteries with fresh alkalines.
• Select a different LCD Contrast Option (see Section 4.9).
c. I’ve activated some automatic Info Displays to watch the
computer think, but the display is scrolling too quickly.
• Select a different LCD Speed option (see Section 4.10).
• Press GO/STOP to pause the scrolling display at any time;
press ‘ (CLEAR) to resume scrolling.
d. The computer won’t make a move.
• The unit only responds automatically if Two Player Mode is set
to player: P-C for Player vs. Computer (see Section 4.1).
•You might be on a level where the computer thinks for a long
time. You can force it to move, if desired, by pressing ENTER.
e. The computer won’t accept my move.
•You’re attempting to make an illegal move. Check the rules.
• Is your King in check? Will your move put your King into check?
Are you castling incorrectly? Review the position.
• Is it your turn? If the color symbol is flashing, the computer is
thinking. Press ENTER to interrupt, if desired.
f. The board notation is reversed when I make moves. Why?
•You have the white: top option activated. Go into Option
Mode and change to black: top (see Section 4.4).
g. I just reset for a new game, but the computer is showing
Rate as draw? instead of resetting itself.
•You’ve interrupted a Tournament Level game, and you need to tell
the computer how you want the game to be rated. For details, see
Section 5.3.
