Daktronics BA-2515-31 DistaView Outdoor LED Scoreboard - Manual (Page 16)

Many customers add message centers or advertising panels to the top or bottom of their
scoreboards, and in some cases the depth of the add-on component may not match the depth
of the scoreboard. This will typically be scoreboards that are 8" deep.
To create a uniform appearance for the
overall display, Daktronics
recommends using spacers behind the
scoreboard so that the front face of the
display lines up evenly with the front
face of the added component. The
concept is illustrated in Figure 8.
During the installation, spacers are
placed between the mounting beams
and the back of the scoreboard cabinet.
Spacer size is determined by the height
and the extra depth required for the
front surface of the scoreboard to
match that of the optional message
center or ad panel.
Daktronics makes optional protective devices, including screens and netting, to help prevent
damage to the scoreboard due to normal ball impacts.

Note:
Daktronics does not provide
these spacers.
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.
