Hi,
I'm pretty new to this, but in our hockey league, we are looking for a ultra cheap scoreboard for indoor hockey...
I've been looking around the net, and found a good-size single-digit display (7" -
https://www.a1parts.com/digitdisplay/index.htm) to use
Minimum req' would be something like
Code:
------------------------
- Home Time Away -
- 00 00:00 00 -
------------------------
The counter would need to be able to go down from either 20 or 10 minutes (no need for custom time) and reset. It would but installed on a wall, and would need an external control (lower on the wall)
If possible
- Short buzz when at '00:00'.
- 3 lights for periods if possible
- Custom time reset if possible to implement, but this would be because we are playing indoor hockey in a small shool gymnasium, and we would give the board to them... So a custom time reset could be usefull for them.
Control box could be like
- Time reset (press one 10:00, press again for 20:00)
- Score reset
- Start time
- Team 1 - Add a goal
- Team 2 - Add a goal
- Period 3-way switch
- Power on/off
I tough of purchasing a pre-built one, but those cost a lot and too much features for what we need.
I'm pretty good on working with my own hands, but wondering how this could be done (electronic-side)?
I'm open for suggestions, if there are better way or parts to do this.
Thanks!
Olivier
