Both games use five dice, three rolls a turn, and one score per box. You pick which box to take after the third roll, and once a box is used it stays used — scratching a zero is a legal, and sometimes correct, move.
Three of every face comes to exactly 63, which is the bonus threshold in both games. That is why this card shows a running delta instead of a bare subtotal: +5 means you are five points clear of needing three of everything from here. Scandinavian pays 50 for it, the American game 35. When the boxes you have left can no longer reach 63, the card says so rather than leaving you to work it out mid-game.
Once the 50-point box holds a score, every later five of a kind is worth 100 on top. You may also take full credit in the lower boxes — 25, 30 or 40 — even though five alike is not really a full house or a straight; this card marks those previews Joker. If the box was scratched to zero you still get the joker credit, but no 100.
You do not have to enter the dice. Leave the tray empty and tapping any box opens a keypad with that box's legal values — Two Pairs offers 6 to 22 in twos, Four Similar offers 4 to 24 in fours. The bonus, the subtotals and the totals still work themselves out.
Or skip the screen entirely. Print blank sheet gives you a printable score sheet for whichever ruleset you have selected, six columns wide, on one page of A4 or Letter. There is also a printable sheets page with both rulesets side by side.

House rules vary, and the two boxes people most often play differently are Two Pairs and Full House. If your table disagrees with the card, clear the dice and enter the score you all agree on — nothing here stops you.
