| Skannerz Instruction Manual/FAQ |
This Instruction Manual/FAQ page's data is taken DIRECTALLY out of the Instruction Manual that come with the Skannerz Game.
What you need to know before you begin:
You have one of the three different color controllers. The blue controller captures and controls the Zendra tribe os alien monsters. The green controler captures and controls the Pataak tribe. The red controller captures and controls the Ujalu tribe. Any "incompatible" monsters you may scan or battle can only be captured using one of the other two tribes' controllers.
*Secret Flux hint:
Each of the controllers is capable of collecting the 42 monsters from its particular tribe. But if you want to help me capture as many monsters as possible, you'll have to get the other two controllers.
Along with the controller, you have special collectors cards that have info about each of your tribes monsters. They tell you what particular kind of monster it is (Tech,Magic, and Power) and how much damage they can give, as well as take. There is also a comic book that tells you how everything began and how this threat found its way to our world.
Now, lets learn about your Skannerz controller!
Button Functions:
The button configuration I came up with is very simple.
-Directional Pad:
This four way button helps you scroll through tings like: the main menu, your collection of monsters, and your inventory of item. It also lets you pan across a monster picture in your view screen (when is a monster is selected).
*Secret Flux Hint:
You can press the "left" direction of the Directional Pad to return to the Main Menu at almost any time.
-On/A button:
Use this to turn on the controller and to make selections (just like an enter button). When a monster is selected, this button also lets you see all ofthe info about this monster.
-B Button:
Press this button to back out of any selection and return to the previous screen.
-Pan Button:
When a monster is selected presd this button then use the Directional Pad to pan across the entire image of the monster.
-Reset Button:
When a blunt point is inserted, this resets the controller to it origional settings. Just remember when you press this button, all of your monsters and player data is cleared.
Main Menu Options
-Sound On/Off
From the Main Menu, choose "Sound", then use the Directional Pad and the On/A button to turn the sound on or off.
-Contrast
From the Main Menu, choose "Contrast", then use the Diectional Pad to adjust the contrast on the viewer screen. Just femember, the lighter the contrast is, the longer your controller's batteries last.
-Player
Displays your "Name" and battle record.
Getting Started
First, you will be prompeted to enter your name into your controller. Using the Directional Pad, toggle through the characters and select the using the On/A button. The B button takes you back one letter.
Now Lets Start Collecting Monsters!
From the Main Menu, select the "Scan" option ans press the On/A button. The screen will read "Ready To Scan" and the Scanning Port at the front of the game will become active for 10 seconds.
Place the "Scanning Port" directally onto the surface of the product, in fron or behind the bar code and slide it over the code from left to right or right to left as straight as you can. When the code is read, the controller will beep and a line with a "Heart Beat" will appear. If it is a "Small" heart beat the code wasn't scanned properly, try again. If a "Large" heart beat appears, you definitely picked up something. If you get a "Flat Line", there is no sign of life and you should select another product to scan.
Scan the 3 UPC codes on the back of your instruction manual marked "Practice Scanning". Scan the three bar codes for your tribe (e.g If you have the blue unit , scan the three marked Zendra/Blue). This will allow you to practice scanning and provide you with the first three monsters of yuor tribe.
Now go to any household product that has a UPC-A (bar code) printed on it. It can be a box of cereal, a book, or a new toy. Anything that needs to be scanned at a store check out counter.
*Secret Flux Hint
Flat surfaces are the easiest to scan. It takes more practice and skill to scan round or odd shaped objects. Remember to always keep the Scanning Port flat on the product. Skannerz works best with full sized barcodes, and you way have diffuclty scanning smaller ones.
Differnt things that may be scanned:
A Compatiable Monster- a monster that only your color controller can collect and control
An Incompatiable Monster-a monster that belongs to one of the other two tribes and can only be scanned by one of the other two controllers.
An Item-your monsters will use these for battle
After the UPC is scanner properly, the controller will compile the monster molecules to reform the monster (or item) inside your controller. Then it becomes part of your inventory.
If an incompatiable monster is scanned and you don't have at least three compatiable monsters, active inside your controller, the controller will reject the molecules and send them back to the UPC. Remember when your monster battle they fight inteams of three. So you must have at least three active monsters to battle opposing monsters.
I will finish this soon!
If you have any questions that wern't answered in the sections I have done e-mail me at Commander8316@aol.com, Thanks!
