Always verify your equipment on a desk before drilling holes in club walls or ceilings.
Connect charger to hub, hub to tablet, and camera into the hub USB port while everything sits on a desk.
Launch CueLive Tablet and confirm the battery status shows “Charging” while camera preview is active.
Hold the camera at the planned mounting spot; verify all 6 pockets and outer cushion rails are in full view.
Secure brackets, route cables through neat trunking, and pair the table in 10 seconds via 6-digit code.
Because table scoreboards stay connected to power 24/7, continuous 100% charging can degrade lithium battery cells. On Samsung tablets, turn on:
Settings → Battery → Protect Battery (caps charging automatically at 85%). On Lenovo tablets, turn on Battery Protection Mode. This prevents battery swelling and extends hardware life for years.
