The MPCW-7 stores up to 100 profiles per sport. A profile captures all OPTIONS menu settings — clock direction, time-out timer presets, sport-specific settings (such as attack time for lacrosse), wireless channel, and more — so you can recall a complete scoreboard configuration with a single key press.
Default profiles for each sport are pre-loaded at the factory (profiles 88–96). You can save custom profiles to any of the 100 available slots.
Loading a profile:
- Press SCROLL PROFILES from the main game screen.
- Press SCROLL PROFILES repeatedly to step through available profiles.
