Daktronics BB-2140 Transparent Shot Clock - Manual (Page 13)

Mechanical Installation 7
Section 3: Mechanical Installation
Mechanical installation consists of lifting and permanently mounting the shot clocks. Be sure that the
installation complies with local building codes.
Note: Daktronics does not assume any liability for any installation derived from the information
provided in this manual or installations designed and installed by others.
3.1 Lifting the Display
Small Daktronics scoreboards use two lifting straps that encircle the scoreboard. It is
recommended to use a spreader bar with the straps.
Note: Daktronics assumes no liability for damages resulting from incorrect setup or
lifting methods.
3.2 Shot Clock Mounting
BB-2140 and BB-2150 shot clocks are mounted behind and above the top center of the
backboard with included hardware. Due to game play, these shot clocks will be exposed to a
lot of movement and vibration. The brackets need to be designed to minimize vibration and
shot clock movement.
BB-2141 and BB-2151 shot clocks are mounted on the rear of the backstop, perpendicular to
the backboard with included hardware. Refer to Drawing A-184787 and Drawing A-1060357
in Appendix A for the approximate location to mount both shot clocks sizes on the backstop.
3.3 Control Enclosure Mounting
IMPORTANT: The control enclosure must be located within 30' (9.1 m) of the shot clock.
Mount on the base of the backstop with four #10 self-drilling screws. Power and signal from
the control console will be routed to the enclosure.
3.4 Remote Horn Enclosure Mounting
Use two #10 self-drilling screws to mount the remote horn enclosure in an open location so
that sound is able to radiate. A 20' (6.1 m) pre-attached cable is included, but this cable may
be extended to mount the horn enclosure further away from the control enclosure if needed.
3.5 Camera Mounting
If a camera is to be added (BB-2140 and BB-2150 only), camera mounts accepting two inch
pipe are available; only one may be used at a time. A cable tray can be used to route camera
wiring down either side of the shot clock. Refer to Drawing B-249064 in Appendix A.
Note: Total weight of the camera and mounting arm cannot exceed 50 lb (23 kg). Design
mounting brackets to accommodate both the shot clock and the camera.
