Daktronics DF-1060 - Manual (Page 10)

1-4 Introduction
The displays use red or amber LEDs – light emitting diodes – to illuminate the digits.
(LEDs are tiny, solid-state components that use a semiconductor chip to transform
electrical current into light. They are high-intensity, low-energy lighting units.)
Because of their LED technology, the Lottery displays consume little power – barely
more than a household lamp. Maximum power usage for all three models in this
series is 300 W.
Cabinets for the displays are constructed of heavy-gauge aluminum. Cabinets are
typically black to maximize LED contrast, but other cabinet colors are available.
Digit faceplates are black, and they are set directly into the cabinet surface.
Refer to Section 1.6 for a complete listing of weights, dimensions, and power
specifications.
The Lottery displays have been designed for use with the Daktronics DataMaster
™
100 hand-held controller. The device uses a keypad overlay (called an insert) for
display control, and the Data Master displays themselves operate without
modification on All Sport
®
5000 signal protocol. Other controllers may be used with
Daktronics software and the appropriate interface. Refer to Section 5 for complete
operating information.
1.4 Model Identification
Daktronics displays are differentiated by their model numbers: For example, with
Model DF-1060, the two-letter prefix DF- identifies it as a Data Master Lottery
display. The next four numbers, 1060, identify the specific model.
DF- series displays are further identified with a suffix of -36, -48, or -60, indicating
nominal digit size in inches: DF-1060-48 describes a Data Master Lottery display
with 48" digits.
Finally, the DF- model names may include the letters “R” or “A”, indicating red or
amber LED digits: DF-1060-36-R.
1.5 Product Safety Approval
Daktronics outdoor LED displays are ETL-listed and tested to CSA standards.
