Note: Some users install devices to protect the scoreboard from projectiles. Scoreboard protection devices not provided by Daktronics must be approved by Daktronics prior to installation. Failure to follow this approval procedure will void the scoreboard warranty. Daktronics makes available optional devices, including screens and netting, to help protect the scoreboard from damage due to normal ball impacts.
The eyebolts are located along the top of the cabinet for each scoreboard or scoreboard section. Note: Daktronics strongly recommends using a spreader bar, or lifting bar, to lift the display. Figure 3: Lifting the Display Using a spreader bar ensures that the force on the eyebolts is straight up, minimizing lifting stress.
Note: Daktronics assumes no liability for scoreboard damage resulting from incorrect setup or incorrect lifting methods. Eyebolts are intended for lifting only. Do not attempt to permanently support the display by the eyebolts. In installations in which an ad panel or some other scoreboard section may be added...

Scoreboard Mounting There are two basic styles for mounting Daktronics single-section outdoor scoreboards. Installation procedures are detailed later in this section. Use the following tables to determine the mounting method required for your scoreboard:...
Mounting Method 1 Reference Drawings: Display Mounting ............Drawing A-44412 Ad Panel Mounting ............Drawing A-52187 Drawing A-44412 shows the hardware used for mounting the scoreboard to the beams.

4. Slide clamping angles over the ends of the rods and loosely install the washers and nuts. 5. Make final adjustments in the positioning of the scoreboard. Tighten the " bolts in the mounting clamps. 6. Make sure that the threaded rods are perpendicular to the scoreboard and tighten all of the "...

Schematic; DistaView OD LED Multi-driver Display ..Drawing A-229706 Schematic; XFMR 16 Col, GEN IV, Outdoor Driver ... Drawing A-704861 Daktronics outdoor LED scoreboards have been designed for easy access to components, and the power and control signal hookup has been simplified. Front panels are removable to allow access to the digits, cabling, and other electronic components.
Daktronics recommends a resistance-to-ground of 10 ohms or less. The electrical contractor performing the electrical installation can verify ground resistance. Daktronics Sales and Service personnel can also provide this service. The display system must be connected to an earth electrode installed at the display.
“signal” to the terminal labeled “ground.” For more information, refer to Drawing A-285892, A-286657, A-229706, and A-704861.. For signal cable, Daktronics recommends, as a minimum, single-pair, shielded cable, 22 AWG (Daktronics part number W-1077). Two-pair shielded cable (Daktronics part W-1614) is preferred.
3. Disconnect power when not using the scoreboard. Cabinet Specifications Cabinets for the Daktronics outdoor LED scoreboards are constructed of heavy- gauge aluminum. Exact dimensions and weights for each model are listed in the chart in Section 2. Removable panels for digits and indicators and for component access are detailed in each model's component locations drawing, listed in the following section.
In the Daktronics DistaView LED outdoor scoreboards, digits are attached to the hinged doors on the front of the scoreboard. Refer to Component location drawings for more details. Component location varies with each scoreboard model, but drivers and power and signal components are typically mounted inside the scoreboard behind an access panel or a digit.
6. Close and secure the digit panel and test the scoreboard. Replacing a Driver Drivers are typically mounted inside the scoreboard and immediately behind a digit, but location and mounting varies with the model of the scoreboard. Refer to the component locations drawings in Section 5.2 for the location of your scoreboard driver.
Drawing A-285892 is the schematic diagram for the 8-column driver and Drawing A-286657 and A-704861 is the schematic diagram for the 16-column driver used in Daktronics outdoor DistaView scoreboards. Drawing A-229706 shows the schematic diagram for multi-driver displays. The schematics include power and signal inputs and all wiring for the models described in this manual.
The same surges that may damage the scoreboard’s driver can also damage the console’s circuit. Replacement Parts Refer to the following table for Daktronics scoreboard replacement parts. Description Daktronics Part No.

Eyebolts Almost every display that leaves Daktronics is equipped with eyebolts for lifting the display. There are two standard sizes of eyebolts: ½″ and ⅝″. Load Increase Factor: The load increases as the lift angle (θ) decreases. The allowable load on the eyebolts also decreases with the lift angle due the bending stress on the eyebolts.
