Section 1: Overview of the Displays
This manual provides installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting information to help ensure the optimal
performance of the Daktronics Galaxy
® AF-3500 series display. Diagnostic information and parts replacement are also
included and a Glossary can be found in the rear of this manual.
1.1 Display Details
The Galaxy ® model numbers are described as follows:
Since both faces of the display show the same image at the same time the
labels “Face A” and “Face B” are used to distinguish the two. A blue dot in
the lower left corner indicates Face A and should be considered the “front”
of the display.
A module is the building block of the Galaxy ® display. Each module
measures 16 pixels square. Figure 1 shows a 20 mm 16 x 16 module. By
placing modules side-by-side and on top of one another, a variety of
display sizes can be designed and built. Individual modules can be easily
removed from the display if required.
A typical display system is controlled with a Windows ® -based computer
running Venus ® 1500 software.
