DGT USB e-Board manual

1. Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the DGT

USB e-Board. This board integrates the trusted

DGT electronic chess detection in several wooden

layout versions.

The highly reliable piece detection system ensures

that no move goes unnoticed.

The USB e- Board can be used with the new plastic

e-Pieces or the wooden DGT e-Pieces.

The USB e- Board can be used in many dierent

ways and on many dierent platforms. It can be

used for recording and broadcasting your games

or simply use it as an input device for your PC

or DGT Pi Chess Computer, so that you can play,

analyse and learn without having to manually

input moves on your screen with a mouse.

Detailed information on how to set up your

e-Board for each dierent use can be found in

section 7 of this manual.

Have fun playing!

2. Accessories

To use your e- Board you will have to add an

electronic chess set (e-Sets). There are many

dierent e-Set options, any set you choose will

work on your e-Board.

Also add the DGT3000 or the DGT Pi to complete

your set-up.

The DGT3000 is a highly advanced chess clock

with many dierent timing options that can be

linked to your board. In many situations the move

of your opponent (human or chess program) will

be shown on the display of the clock. Connecting

the clock also allows you to log all move times

with the DGT LiveChess software.

DGT Pi is a chess computer that allows you to

play, train, analyse, study and prepare against a

computer using a real chess board and pieces.

The“USB accessory kit ” includes:

• 3 meter USB cable

• Clock cable.

o Installation manual

• DVD with DGT driver software, a version of

the Fritz chess program and 365 days premium

membership to PlayChess.com.

3. e-Set precautions

Electromagnetic resonance is used to detect

the e-Pieces on your e-Board. Strong signal

transmitters generated close to the e- Board

area may cause spontaneous and incorrect piece

detection, so called “ghost pieces”.

Detection issues can occur when using your

e-Board too close to plasma screens, LCD

monitors, speakers, power adapters or other

similar devices.

Metal surfaces or objects near or underneath

your e- Board or underneath the table may

reduce the sensitivity of the e- Board and may

cause detection errors. Please do not place the

e-Board on a metal table or a table with a metal

construction beneath the table top.

4. Maintenance and support

For warranty purposes and future updates please

registration go to the support section of the DGT

web site and select “Register your Product”.

The e- Board top is nished with a high quality

laminated wooden surface. When treated with

care it will give you many years of trouble-

free performance. To clean the board a lightly

moistened soft cloth should be used. Do not use

abrasive cleaning liquids.

If you have any questions that are not covered

by this manual please consult the FAQ’s on the

support section of our website. If you are unable

to nd a solution in the FAQ section, feel free to

contact the DGT support department.

5. Warranty conditions

This e- Board complies with our highest quality

standards. If, despite our care in choosing

components, materials, production or transport,

your e- Board shows a hardware defect in the

rst two years after purchase, please contact your

retailer. You may also contact the DGT support

department for assistance.

The warranty is only valid if the e-Board has

been used in a reasonable and prudent manner

as intended to be used. The warranty does not

apply if the e- Board has been misused or if any

unauthorized repair attempts or modications

have been undertaken without prior express

written consent of DGT support or one of the DGT

7. Use of your USB e-Board

The DGT e-Board has many dierent uses for example recording games, broadcasting games or

inputting games.

Playing a game on the e- Board records all moves as long as the board is connected to a power source.

The board will log and record around 500 moves that can be extracted from the board and imported

into a computer. It allows you to enter your games into a chess program for analysing without having to

enter all your moves with a mouse. And of course you can choose to then publish your games as well.

Using the board for live broadcasting of your games allows you to log all moves that are executed on the

board and show them locally on screens or broadcast them over the internet. This feature can be used to

publish your games online, for live-coverage of your tournament and for live demonstrations.

For playing online, against a computer or for online analysing of your games the e-Board can be used as

an input device. This means that the moves that you make on your e-Board are automatically entered

into a chess program, website or DGT Pi Chess Computer.

Depending on how you want to use your e-Board there are dierent set-ups you can choose. The

following sections will give an overview of the options and set-up methods for each of the e-Board uses.

8. Recording your games

When the e Board is powered by either cable or

power bank, all moves that are executed on the

board are stored on the board’s internal memory.

The board will automatically detect when the

pieces are put in the starting position and

generate a new log le.

Broadcasting the match or connecting a clock is

not required for this functionality.

To use this function simply make sure the board

is powered during the matches you play. The

board will log around 500 moves when used in

this manner. At a later time connect the board

to your computer using the USB cable. After

connecting your board to the computer open

the DGT LiveChess program. In the games menu

your matches can be found and exported in PGN

format.

For more information please see the DGT

LiveChess manual which can be found in the

support section on our website.

Note: If a power bank is used to power the board,

we recommend a power bank with an indication

light so you know for sure that the board is

powered.

9. Show your games locally

If you want to show one or multiple games on a

local screen without using an internet connection

this functionality can be used.

To show the games on extra screens the set-up as

shown in Figure 3 is required.

When your USB e-Board is connected to a PC, the

board can be monitored using DGT LiveChess. In

LiveChess a tournament can be set up and boards

can be linked to player pairings. LiveChess will also

provide arbiter assistance by giving notications

for events that may need arbiter action.

To view the matches on separate screens, go to

the tournament tab at the left side of your screen

and click the hyperlink. A live viewer will be

opened in your browser. Use this viewer to show

the matches on additional screens.

It is also possible to access this link on other

computers, provided they are connected in a local

network. To access the live viewer on another

system enter the IP address of the PC in an

internet browser, followed by “:1982”. For example

it would be written as: “http://12.3.4.567:1982”.

For a detailed description on how to set this up,

please see the DGT LiveChess manual.

The games can also be broadcasted and viewed

using the LiveChess Cloud. For more details on

this option please see section 10 of this manual.

Note: If you have several e- Boards available, it

is possible to individually connect each board to

your PC or via a powered hub. This is of course

limited to the total number of USB ports you have

available. The cable length between PC and the

e-Boards may not exceed 5 metres.

For a reliable tournament set-up we advise to use

serial e-Boards or Smart Boards connected via a

tournament cable set. We do not recommend a

wiring structure via USB cabling only.

10. Broadcasting your games online

For broadcasting single matches or entire

tournaments the online broadcasting option can

be used. This set-up is achieved by connecting

your boards in a USB start network as shown in

Figure 4.

When all USB boards are connected to your admin

PC, the boards can be monitored using DGT

LiveChess. In LiveChess the tournament can be set

up and boards can be linked to player pairings.

In order to broadcast the matches, go to the

“Rounds” tab in LiveChess. Select the boards

of which you wish to broadcast the match and

start the recording. Then go to the “Output” tab

and select “Export to LiveChess Cloud”. This will

automatically create a link you can share with your

viewers. Viewers will be able to follow the matches

on their own devices, such as phones or tablets.

To show the games on local screens at your venue,

open the previously mentioned link in a browser

on a computer or Smart TV.

12. Use with Fritz software

The Fritz software supplied with your e- Board

can be used to play, train, analyse and study.

This software also allows you to import PGN’s of

previously played matches. To export matches

from your e- Board to your computer by using

LiveChess, please see section 8 of this manual.

To use this functionality the Fritz software and the

DGT drivers must be installed. Simply place the

DVD supplied with your board in the computer

and follow the installation steps.

It is also possible to download the DGT drivers

from the support section of the DGT website.

When both the Fritz software and the DGT drivers

are installed, connect the board to your PC with

the USB cable. In the Fritz software go to “Board”

tab at the top of the screen and check the “DGT

Board” box. The software will now automatically

detect all moves executed on the board.

It is possible to have the computer announcing

the moves that are executed by the computer. This

can be activated in the Fritz options under the

“Multimedia” tab.

11. Use with the DGT PI

Connecting the e- Board with the DGT Pi Chess

Computer will allow you to play, train, analyse,

study and prepare against a computer using a real

chess board and pieces.

As can be seen in Figure 5, you need to connect

your board to the DGT Pi with the USB cable. The

USB connector for the Pi can be found on the left

side of the Pi under the cover.

DGT Pi must have batteries inserted and requires

power using the power adapter supplied with the

chess computer.

When the e- Board is connected to DGT Pi, the

computer inside DGT Pi will automatically detect

the board. The clock display will show the default

or selected time setting once all the pieces have

been placed in the correct starting position. For

example “05.00 - 05.00”.

Detailed information on how to set-up your DGT

Pi can be found in the DGT Pi manual.

3. e-Set Vorsichtsmaßnahmen

Die elektromagnetischen Spulen werden

verwendet, damit die e-Figuren auf Ihrem USB

e-Board erkannt werden. Starke Signalgeber,

die in der Nähe des USB e-Board-Bereichs

senden, können spontane und falsche Figuren

verursachen, so genannte“Geisterguren”.

Wenn bei der Verwendung Ihres USB e-Boards

Erkennungsprobleme auftreten, liegt dies

möglicherweise daran, dass sich Ihr Brett zu

nahe an Plasmabildschirmen, LCD-Monitoren,

Lautsprechern, Netzteilen oder ähnlichen Geräten

bendet.

Metalloberächen oder Objekte in der Nähe

oder unterhalb Ihres USB e-Boards oder unter

dem Tisch können die Empndlichkeit des USB

e-Boards verringern und zu Erkennungsfehlern

führen. Bitte platzieren Sie das USB e-Board

nicht auf einem Metalltisch oder einem Tisch mit

Metallkonstruktion unter der Tischplatte.
