Address settings – Daktronics DataTime Outdoor LED Time & Temperature Displays User Manual

Page 20

Some multiple-module DataTime displays use

“host/client” displays, which do not contain a driver

and may use either client or host digit outputs. The DF-

1011 model uses the host/client configuration.

Address Settings

The address of each driver is set using an eight-position

DIP-switch (S1), and the address is based on that driver’s

position in the display system. If a single-line display is

used, the address will typically be Address “01.” This

means that switch 1 is turned “ON” and the remaining 7

switches are in the “OFF” position. This is the default

address set when each display is shipped. In multiple-

product displays, the address determines which line of

information is shown on the driver’s digits. The switch is

set using a binary address. Use the table and the

examples in Figure 12 for setting the address.

Note: Some older drivers set the address of each driver

using an address plug (Daktronics part # 0A-1150-0122)

in J19. The address, either using a switch or a plug, needs

to be set for each driver.
