One driver at each sign installation is designated as the
“host driver.” This driver receives its signal directly
from the controller on the Signal In connector “J6.” The
Signal Out connector “J8” is used to connect to “client
drivers.” Other connectors used for communication are
“J11” (Radio, RC-100 system) and “J12” (RC-50
receiver). With the DM-100 and the RC-100, every sign
acts as a host and every driver has its own light sensor.
With the RC-50, the host receiver sends a signal
through J12, and sends the line information out to the
clients.
Every driver, either host or client, must have a unique
address. The address is set by moving the switches in an
eight position to the “Dip switch,” located on the driver.
Addresses allow the user to set up to eight lines in up to
eight sign groups. All displays with the same line
number will show the same price. Refer to
Drawing B-256001 for an illustration of the client/host
driver setups and for a line number and sign chart.
