Fiber Interconnection

A four-conductor fiber cable is used in connecting two or more displays in the Fiber
Interconnection method. Two fibers will connect one fiber board to the next, and two
will be spares. Connect the fiber cable to the fiber cards of the display as described in
Drawing A-174344 and on the following table.

1. After mounting the optional sensor, follow these steps to complete the

electrical installation. A 2-pair, individually shielded cable (Belden 5594,
Daktronics part number W-1234) is used to connect the sensor to the
controller.

2. Run ½" conduit from the sensor location to the controller within the display.

The cable must be routed through one-foot of ½" metal conduit that should
be earth-grounded to protect the sensor and controller from lightning
damage.


3. Connect the cable to the temperature sensor terminal block within the

temperature sensor as follows:
