When correcting book errors the 2 scorers rely on themselves, then they rely on the official book unless the floor officials have definite knowledge. From my experience I'm not trusting the people (students) who enter the information into the computer. Not even as the tie-breaking vote.

Ok. If the books disagree and they call us over we have to make a decision. Rule 2-12 art.13 ".....when no error can be found, the referee shall accept the record of the official score book,
unless the referee has knowledge that permits another decision." Checking with play by play would be part of the information the referee can obtain to gain the knowledge needed to make a decision.
The court-side equipment being within 3 to 12 of the playing court is only relevant if we were talking about one of the re viewable monitor plays. Since this is a bookkeeping error we can take whatever information we can get from the table to make a decision.
