Fiber Optic Signal
Route fiber optic signal cable through the
conduit knockout on the rear of the display.
The fiber optic cable is terminated to a male
ST-type connector and plugged into the J3
jack on the fiber card (Figure 20), located in
the primary driver enclosure.
A minimum cabling of multi-mode, 62.5/125
um, and 2-core fiber cable is recommended
(part # W-1242). This method requires a
signal converter between the All Sport
console’s scoreboard output and the fiber
optic cable (not provided by Daktronics).
To connect signal to additional scoreboards,
such as a delay of game clock, or to connect
multiple modular scoreboard sections, route
copper signal wire from SIGNAL OUT of one
card to SIGNAL IN on another.
Multiple Driver Connections
Some models require multiple drivers in each scoreboard section and use a primary/
secondary driver system. Primary and secondary drivers function identically, but secondary
enclosures lack the signal surge (or fiber) card. When one scoreboard section has multiple
drivers, they are connected together at the factory. Drivers between scoreboard sections,
however, require additional on-site connection (see Section 3.6).
Note: Scoreboards capable of displaying speed of pitch (SOP) have an additional primary
driver. These models also require a separate signal connection (either wired or radio)
from a dedicated speed of pitch All Sport 5000 console. Refer to the Baseball Speed of
Pitch Systems Configuration Manual (ED-12224), available online at
for more information.
3.5 Wireless Signal Connection
All Sport Control
A wireless radio system requires an All Sport control console equipped with radio transmitter
as well as a radio receiver plugged into the 6-pin J21 jack on the primary driver and mounted
internally to the front panel of the scoreboard. For more information, refer to the Gen VI
Radio Installation Manual (DD2362277), provided with the receiver unit and available
online at

.
RC-100 Control
A hand-held RC-100 wireless radio control system requires a base station receiver plugged
into the 6-pin J21 jack on the primary driver and mounted internally to the front panel of the
scoreboard. For more information, refer to the Remote Control System RC-100 All Sport
Operation Manual (ED-15133), provided on a CD with the RC-100 unit and available online
