Section 5: Input/Output Configuration
Go to Configure > Input/Output Configuration to open the window shown in Figure 32.
Note: Refer to DD1660229 for more information on setting up the proper input and output ports
to interface with timing consoles and display controllers.
5.1 Adding New Ports
The Configure Ports area contains all of the input
and output ports that have been set up. To add a
new port:
1. Double-click the first empty line at the
bottom of this list.
2. In the DLStreams Configuration Wizard
(Figure 33), the General tab needs the
Type and Name specified.
3. After selecting a Type, click the Settings
tab and enter the appropriate connection
settings.
4. Click Finish when done.
Once the ports are configured, they are ready to
be used in the other areas:
INPUT: Timer
The INPUT: Timer area is used to assign the
timing console input.
 Give the input a descriptive Name
 Select a previously configured Port.
Note: There can only be one configured timer.
OUTPUT: Rodeo In Progress (RIP) RTD
The OUTPUT: Rodeo In Progress (RIP) RTD area is
used to assign outputs to the Daktronics display
controllers. This stream sends the current rodeo,
event, cowboy and ride information along with
go-round and average leaders.
 Give the output device a descriptive Name.
 Select a previously configured Port.
 Select a port Type, either Serial or Network.
Note: Regardless of the connection type, it is typically recommended to select Serial.
 The Offset is typically only needed for Daktronics Galaxy displays – set this to 5000
