North is the “controller” of the Bridgepad. He should enter most of the information but should also SHARE the unit with other players when the situation calls for it. If North has vision problems or other handicaps that prevent him from handing the BridgePad, South may do the entries, but it would be better if North and South switch places. If neither North nor South can handle the unit, then E or W can do the entries. If nobody can handle the unit, the Director will be happy to help. The single most important thing to remember is to READ the screen and note the location of the cursor. This goes for N when entering the information, and for E or W when checking it. Beginning the Game North passes unit to E or W to enter security code. (Share) North passes unit to S/E/W to enter their player numbers. (Share) After the play, North enters the result and passes unit to E or W to verify ALL THE INFORMATION and to enter their security code. (Share) E or W checks the board number, the contract, who played the board, the result, and the score, and enters security code if all information is correct. He then presses Next to confirm security code and to see percentage and passes unit back to N while still on percentage screen. (Share) N presses Next to see traveler and passes the unit to anyone interested in seeing the scores. (Share) N presses Next for the next board or round and continues to press Next until contract entry location is reached. North makes sure to never leave the table with the Bridgepad on traveler window. After the Last Round At end of game, the last person to use the unit should reset it. See below. Final Standing Final Standing 56% Brd pts Brd pts 1 1.0 6 0.0 2 0.0 7 … 3 2.0 8 … 4 1.5 5 0.5 In this example (above) there were 8 boards to play. Pair NS01 played only boards 1 to 6 (skipped boards 7 and 8). On board 1 it got 1 point out of maximum of 2 points. Now the final duty of the last player to use the unit: PRESS NEXT UNTIL YOU ARE ASKED TO (1) - CONTINUE THE CURRENT GAME Some tips to keep the game flowing smoothly: North should enter the contract information while waiting for the lead to be made, or while declarer is studying dummy’s cards. But, if North is on lead, he should lead before entering information in the unit, and if North is dummy, he should face the dummy before entering information in the unit.
