Daktronics signs are built for long life and require little maintenance. However, from 
time to time, certain sign components will need replacing. The Replacement Parts 
List in Section 7 provides the names and numbers of components that may need to 
be ordered during the life of the sign. Most sign components have a white label that 
lists the part number. The component part number is in the following format: 0P-_ _ 
_ _-_ _ _ _ (circuit board) or 0A-_ _ _ _-_ _ _ _ (multi-component assembly). 
 
Following the Replacement Parts List is the Daktronics Exchange and Repair 
and Return Programs. Refer to these instructions if any sign component needs 
replacement or repair. 
1.1 Safety Precautions
1.
Read and understand these instructions before installing.
2.
Be sure that the display is properly grounded.
3.
Disconnect power before working on the display.
4.
Do not modify the displays or attach any panels or coverings to the display 
without the express written consent of Daktronics, Inc. 
5.
Most products are equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug, a plug 
having a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type 
power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug 
into the outlet, contact a qualified electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. 
Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding-type plug. 
1.2 Display Overview
The Daktronics DataTrac CE-1010 Indoor LED displays have been designed and 
manufactured for performance, reliability, easy maintenance, and long life. The 
displays consist of an array of LED pixels. The configuration of the LED pixels is 
dependent on the family of LED displays. The standard character is seven pixels 
high by five pixels wide. 
The DataTrac CE-1010 system is available with DataView or Venus 1500 protocol 
for message control. The PC controls one or more DataTrac sectional displays. The 
displays are offered as single-face sectional displays, which are single-sided stand-
alone units. They can be mounted side-by-side and stacked on top of each other to 
create a larger display.
