Modem
In a display that uses a modem, Signal In routes first to a telecommunications connector and
terminated per the table below. A 6-conductor phone cord with RJ11 connectors (part number 0A-
1137-0160) relays the signal to the modem (refer to Drawing A-125900). A second phone cord
(0A-1137-0160) transfers the data from the modem to J1 (RS232 IN) on the controller.

Fiber Optic
When fiber optic cables are used, signal from the converter enters the fiber board (J4/J5). An
adapter module (Daktronics part number 0A-1146-0029) allows the use of a 6-conductor phone
cord with RJ11 connectors (part number 0A-1137-0160) to relay the signal to J1 (RS232 IN) on
the controller.

RS422 Interconnection
This is the most common method of terminating signal between two or more displays. A 6-
conductor cable is used and one end terminates at the “RS422 OUT” 6-position terminal block
(TB3) on the first display. The other end terminates at the “RS422 IN” 6-position terminal block
(TB2) in the second display.
