• To remove a piece from the board, simply press on the piece
and it will disappear from the board.
• To move a piece from one square to another, press on the
piece, causing it to disappear. Then, press on the new square,
and the piece will appear in that location.
• To add a piece to the board, first press directly on the displayed
color and piece symbol for the piece you want to add, and then
press the square where you'd like to add the piece. To add
another piece of the same type and color, simply press down on
another square. To add a different piece, press another piece
and/or color symbol, and follow the same steps as above.
• To clear the board, press CLEAR while in Setup Mode. The
display will ask for confirmation with Clear board?. Press
ENTER, and the display will show Cleared. You can then add
any number of pieces, as described above. If you decide you
don't want to clear the board after all, simply press CLEAR again
to cancel, and you'll see Not cleared. Note that this feature
can be handy for setting up positions with only a few pieces,
where it would be much easier to start out with an empty board!
• Once you have changed the position as described above,
note that the color for the side to move is determined by the color
of the last piece you set up. Change the color, if necessary, by
pressing either ı for Black or „ for White.
• To exit Setup Mode, press ENTER. When the computer asks for
confirmation with New position?, press ENTER to return
to normal play with your new board setup. New position!
confirms this. If you press CLEAR, the display will show Re-
sume, and you'll remain in Setup Mode.
Note that any legal board position can be set up using the above
procedures. The computer will not permit you to set up an illegal
position, such as one where there are more than the prescribed
number of pieces for a normal game, or one where a King is in check
and is not to move. In such cases, after you press ENTER to exit
Setup Mode, and then ENTER to confirm, the computer will display
Illegal. You will not be allowed to exit Setup Mode until you have
set up a legal board position!
If you enter Setup Mode, but you haven't yet made any changes to
the board, you can exit by pressing ENTER. The display will confirm
with unchanged, and you'll be returned to the Main Menu. Press
MENU again to return to normal game play.
