Electrical Installation

The diagram shown in Figure 11 illustrates a typical wireless setup between a multi-section
outdoor scoreboard and controller. Daktronics part numbers are shown in parentheses.

4.2 Power

Correct power installation is imperative for proper display operation. The subsections that
follow give details of display power installation. Only qualified individuals should attempt to
complete the electrical installation; untrained personnel should not attempt to install these
displays or any of the electrical components. Improper installation could result in serious
damage to the equipment or injury to personnel.

Multi-section outdoor scoreboards require a dedicated 120 V or 240 V circuit for incoming
power (refer to the Specifications in Section 2). The display itself has no breakers or fuses.

WARNING: It is critical that the scoreboard circuit be fused at 15 A and that all
conductors used must be designed to pass a 15 A current in normal operation.
Failure to meet wiring and overcurrent protection device requirements will void the
scoreboard warranty.

Grounding

The display must be properly grounded according to local and national codes or the warranty
will be void. Proper grounding is necessary for reliable equipment operation and protects the
equipment from damaging destructive disturbances and lightning.
