The method used to mount displays can vary greatly from location to location. For
this reason, only general mounting topics can be addressed in this manual.
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure the installation will adequately
meet local codes and standards, as well as the mounting hardware and methods.
Before beginning the installation process, verify the following items:
• The mounting structure will provide a straight and square-mounting frame
for the display. Height variation in any four-foot horizontal section may
not exceed ¼-inch.
• The mounting structure will not give way at any unsupported points after
the display is mounted.
The back of the display has nutserts to which the mounting structure will be attached
as shown in Drawing A-193720 or Drawing A-201993. Remember to have all
mounted displays inspected by a qualified structural engineer. It is the customer’s
responsibility to determine the proper wall mounting method and location.
Refer to Drawing A-193720 or A-201993 for a suggested wall mount method. The
number of attachment points needed and the wall structure must be reviewed by a
qualified structural engineer and meet all national and local codes. Daktronics
recommends attaching to all nutserts provided.
1. Carefully uncrate the display. Look each side of the display over for
damage during shipping.
2. Following the guidelines described in Section 2.4, lift the display into
position on the support structure.
3. Use the provided nutserts in the display for mounting to the structure.
4. Refer to Section 3 for information on routing power and signal.
5. After installation is complete, carefully inspect the display for any holes
that may allow water to seep into the display. Seal any openings with
silicone. If the eyebolts on the top of the display have been removed,
plug the holes with bolts and the rubber-sealing washers that were
removed with the eyebolts.
2.6 Optional Temperature Sensor Mounting
If a temperature sensor will be used with your display, see Appendix C for mounting
and signal connections.
