Daktronics HS-200 Horn Start - Manual (Page 14)

System Setup & Operations 8
Note: Always install the speakers
tilting down to easily drain and
prevent water from collecting inside.
Note: Always place cables and equipment in areas of minimal
traffic. Cover wires and cables with a mat to prevent accidents.
When plugging in dual banana connectors (Figure 12), the GND
(ground) tab on the plug must line up with the black female jack
for the timing system to work. Remember this when connecting
all dual banana plugs.
Connecting the Horn Start
 Connect the cable from the lane speakers into the jacks labeled
LANE SPEAKERS on the HS-200 connection panels.
 Connect the cable from the Auxiliary speaker (Backstroke
