Section 5: Rate Display Operation
This section describes the DataMaster 100 controller, and how it is used to set the information
on the Rate Display.
5.1 DataMaster 100 Overview
The DataMaster 100 Series controller, shown in
Figure 22, is a hand-held controller designed to
operate Daktronics LED DataMaster
displays. The
console’s liquid crystal display (LCD) guides the
user through the operation of the system.
The DataMaster 100, identified by the series
number DM-100, can be configured to display
motel rates, gasoline price, and time and
temperature data. The displays in the LED
DataMaster Series will use a junction box at the
base of the sign, an indoor wire system, modem or
radio. Refer to Section 3 for information on
possible connection procedures.
For details on configuring the DataMaster to
operate a display, refer to Section 5.3: Rate
Display Operation.
