Revised February 21, 2019 LX7406 Owner's Manual Before You Spend Your Time and Money... Please keep in mind that the dimensions and other details referenced throughout this document are specific to the standard configuration of this particular locker room clock model.
LX7406 Owner's Manual Revised February 21, 2019 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION This section of the manual provides information that is important for locating power receptacles, running cable, planning for conduit, and other steps needed in preparation for bringing power and data to a locker room clock display. The final hookups for power and data will happen after the mechanical installation, but it is wise to plan for key pieces of the electrical installation prior to physically mounting the cabinet.

Here we will assume that the receptacle is available, or that power is being supplied directly via a concealed wiring configuration. A Model LX7406 locker room clock draws a maximum of 0.3 amps.

The splice point should stay inside the junction box. That is, you want to feed the long run of data cable into the box rather than pulling the pigtail out. Electro-Mech provides a strain relief on one side of the junction box to secure the cable. You may choose to connect conduit directly to the junction box, in which case the strain relief will not be needed.

Revised February 21, 2019 LX7406 Owner's Manual Connecting data cable to the stereo plug requires soldering to two terminals. Slide the cover and sleeve over the data cable before soldering. The terminal nearer the center of the plug body connects to the tip of the socket. The black wire from the data cable should be soldered to this terminal.
This section of the manual describes options for installing locker room clock cabinets. If your scoreboard project includes customizations or requires other special mounting considerations, please contact Electro-Mech to request details specific to your project. If you have unique requirements and would like to change the position or size of our mounting hardware to accommodate them, we can probably help you out.

Revised February 21, 2019 LX7406 Owner's Manual Below are the standard dimensions of an LX7406 locker room clock. Lag bolts for hanging the clock should be placed 18 inches apart from center to center. www.electro-mech.com · 800.445.7846 Page 13...
LX7406 Owner's Manual Revised February 21, 2019 TESTING, OPERATION, AND ONGOING CARE After all power, data, and other connections are in place, it is time to test the locker room clock. Apply power to the locker room clock display first. Although there is no harm in powering the control console first, powering the clock first should result in the numeric displays remaining blank.
When contacting Electro-Mech for support, it helps to have the scoreboard model (LX7406) handy as well as the version of the software running on your control console. If your control console includes an LCD display, you will see the software version flash briefly (for about three seconds) on the screen when you first apply power.

Revised February 21, 2019 LX7406 Owner's Manual Power Supplies and Fuses In standard configuration, the AC power socket on the side of the locker room clock serves as the point of entry for power. In the concealed wiring configuration, AC power enters through the cutouts on the back of the clock cabinet.
