Press Row Monitors (DakStats Only)

Click Press Row Monitors to configure the port used by press row monitors.

1. In the Configure Press Row Monitors window (Figure 9), click Add.

2. In the Enter Port Parameters window

(Figure 8), type in the name of the port
and select the port type.

The right side of the window will display
protocol information. The different types
of protocols currently available for use
with the press row monitors are listed in
the table below.

3. Click OK when all the protocols are set.
4. If COM Port or File is selected, the Configure

Press Row Monitor Output window appears
(Figure 10). Name the port, select the Send
Protocol
and the Send Update interval, and then
click OK.

Note: To modify a configured port, select it from
the list, and then click Edit. To delete a configured
port, select it from the list, and then click Delete.

The table below lists the protocol settings needed to complete a configuration. The settings
for the protocols will be established with each unique DSTI software location. Though there
are seven Port Type selections, only the first three are supported by press row monitors: COM
Port
, IPX Socket, and File. Daktronics software engineers recommend recording the specific
port protocols into the Notes area of the table.
