Daktronics BA-1518-11 Multi-Section Outdoor LED Scoreboard - Manual (Page 55)

When installing a module, reverse the previous steps, taking note of the following conditions:
+ Weatherstripping on the back edge of the module must be intact and in good condition if it is
to prevent water from seeping into the display.
+ Module latches must be fully engaged to create a watertight seal around the edge of the
module. The module should be firmly seated against the display when the latches are fully
engaged.
Each module assembly contains a module housing (containing LEDs and the driver board) and a
louver assembly. Drawing B-126111 and B-126112 illustrate the various module components.
From time to time, it may become necessary to remove one or more parts form the module housing for
repair or replacement. The following subsection explains how to disassemble a module.

Parts List in Section 9.9. When replacing the louver assembly, take care not to strip the plastic
twist-on fasteners.
