How to use the SAITEK PRO BRIDGE 310 to play?

Question

Accepted Answer

The SAITEK PRO BRIDGE 310 is a portable bridge computer that allows you to play bridge against the computer. To get started, first install 4 AAA/AM4/R03 alkaline mini batteries in the compartment located at the base of the device, then press the GO button to turn it on. If the device does not respond, press with a pointed object (pen or pin) in the hole marked ACL for a few seconds to reset it.

To start a game, the screen displays DEAL. Press ENTER for a random deal or enter a number between 1 and 9999999999 to play a prepared hand. The computer then displays the hands of your partners and opponents. You always play South, while the computer manages the other positions (North, East, West).

Bidding phase: The word SOUTH flashes when it is your turn to bid. Select your bid by pressing a suit button (spades, hearts, diamonds, clubs, or No Trump), then a number button (1 to 7 for the level). The computer makes the bids for the other players. Bidding continues until 3 consecutive passes. To change the bidding system (switch from 5-Card Majors to the ACOL system), press HINT/SYSTEM before pressing ENTER on the DEAL screen.

Play phase: After the bidding, the dummy's hand is displayed (unless South is the dummy). SOUTH flashes again when it is your turn to play. Select the card to play using the value and suit buttons. The computer displays the card in the center of the screen and plays the cards from the other hands. One of the symbols on the left shows the trump suit (if applicable).

During the game, you can use several functions: press HINT to get advice on your next move, hold VIEW HANDS to see the complete hands of North/South or East/West, press CLAIM to declare the remaining tricks you hope to win, or SCORE to check your current score. At any time, press ESCAPE to return to the deal selection menu.

After the last trick, the screen displays the contract result (e.g., 4♠ made with 1 extra trick). Press ENTER to add the result to the score and start a new deal, or ESCAPE to return to selection without saving. To replay the same deal, press REBID at any time during the game.
