Signal Installation Overview 9
Section 4: Signal Installation Overview
For specific details on installing communications, consult the quick guide and manual included with the
communication equipment. Each type of communication is listed below along with manual and quick guide
document numbers.
Note: These are the standard communication types. However, each site is unique and may include additional
equipment. If problems arise, contact the display’s service company or Daktronics Customer Service.
4.1 Primary/Mirror Display Interconnections
If the display is a two-sided primary/mirror display, a 6-foot quick-connect
cable is provided to connect signal between the two display faces. This cable
is limited to 6 feet only and cannot be extended. Refer to
Figure 6 for proper
connection. Secure the excess cable to the support structure to prevent
damage from weather or vandalism.
If the display faces are mounted more than 6 feet apart, install two primary
displays. Hard wiring between the two display faces is required. Refer to the
communications manual for information.
4.2 USB to Ethernet Adapter
A USB to Ethernet adapter is included with the display and can be used
to bypass network configuration in situations where simple point-to-point
communication is required. The adapter creates a secondary network that is
dedicated to communication with the display, but network operation is still
enabled through the primary network.
The USB to Ethernet Adapter can be used in conjunction with
communication kits supplied with the display. Refer to
DD1790707 for more information regarding the
adapter.
