Be sure that the installation complies with local building codes. Note: Daktronics does not assume any liability for any installation derived from the information provided in this manual or installations designed and installed by others.
Figure 6: Wall Mounting specification drawings listed in Appendix A. Due to the variety of wall materials used in sports facilities, Daktronics cannot anticipate a user‟s individual installation needs or provide mounting hardware suitable for every installation. Choose a method of installation that will safely support the weight of the display.
Notes: 1) Daktronics recommends that two cables be used at each end of the scoreboard. 2) Cables and hardware must be specified by a licensed engineer. 3) Do not attach suspension hardware to ad panels – attach to top of scoreboard.
It is the responsibility of the electrical contractor to ensure that all electrical work meets or exceeds local and national codes. Daktronics engineering staff must approve all changes or the warranty will be void. Installation Overview The diagram shown in Figure 7 illustrates a typical wired setup between a scoreboard and the control system.
Connect the scoreboard to earth ground. Proper grounding assures reliable equipment operation and protects the equipment against damaging electrical disturbances and lightning. 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.

Refer to Figure 7 for more information about connecting the signal wiring that runs from the scoreboard to the controller. See also Drawing A-124688 in Appendix E. At a minimum, use a paired, 22 AWG shielded cable (Daktronics part # W-1077) and connect the cable to a dual "...
See also Drawings A-124688 and A-125415 in Appendix E. At a minimum, use a paired, 22 AWG shielded cable (Daktronics part # W-1077) and connect the cable to a dual " J-box at the control console end.
BB-2132 come prewired with a twistlock male power inlet. A female plug is provided by Daktronics that must be attached to a power cord by the customer. Note: Model BB-2114 comes equipped with a standard 12' (3.7 m) power cord and plug.

Problem Possible Cause Solution/Items to Check Move the console 20-30 feet from the scoreboard and test again. Verify that both the console and scoreboard antennae are securely tightened and in a vertical position. Replace the radio receiver. Check that the scoreboard is receiving 120 (or 230) VAC power.
Problem Possible Cause Solution/Items to Check Bad digit or driver (see solution on previous page) Incorrect sport code (see solution on previous page) Incorrect driver address (see solution on previous page) Wrong console controlling Another console’s radio signal could Scoreboard works, but some scoreboard be transmitting to the scoreboard.

Figure 18: Driver Status Indicators Replacing a Driver If the driver status indicators do not appear to be working correctly, it may be necessary to replace the driver. Open the digit panel or scoreboard face panel as described in Section 5 .2. Disconnect all connectors from the driver by squeezing together the locking tabs and pulling the connectors free.
Setting the Driver Address Since the same LED drivers can be used for many scoreboard models, each driver must be set to receive the correct signal input, or address, for the model being used. This address is set with jumper wires in a 12-pin plug which mates with jack J19 on the driver (Figure 19).

The Daktronics Exchange Program is a service for quickly replacing key components in need of repair. If a component fails, Daktronics sends a replacement part to the customer who, in turn, returns the failed component to Daktronics. This decreases equipment downtime.
Repair & Return Program For items not subject to exchange, Daktronics offers a Repair & Return Program. To send a part for repair, follow these steps: Call or fax Daktronics Customer Service: Refer to the appropriate market number in the chart listed on the previous page.
Visual Horn Indicator (VHI) In addition to the horn, Daktronics offers a visual horn indicator (VHI) that lights up when the buzzer sounds. To install a VHI, users must tap into the existing horn wiring to provide power and signal.
Changeable Captions Team name and statistics caption kits contain hardware for one caption only and consist of an upper caption retainer, a lower caption retainer, a changeable caption panel and screws. The standard HOME and GUEST captions are applied directly to the face of the scoreboard. Team name captions are on changeable panels that fit into retainers mounted above and below the standard captions.
Section 7: TNMC & Electronic Caption Troubleshooting & Maintenance IMPORTANT NOTES: 1. Always disconnect scoreboard power before doing any repair/maintenance work on the message centers. 2. Permit only qualified service personnel to access internal display electronics. 3. Disconnect power when not using the scoreboard. Display Overview Team Name Message Centers (TNMCs) are programmable LED displays that allow users to show custom Home and Guest names or messages of ~15 characters on the scoreboard in...
