BRICK® Display Module
The BRICK display module consists of Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) that can compose alphanumeric or
graphic messages. The front face of the BRICK is made from a UV-inhibited, polycarbonate material with
a UV, silk-screened mask that provides a high level of contrast and readability. The body of the BRICK is
made from a UV-inhibited, high-impact, ABS thermoplastic material. The BRICK is environmentally sealed
against contaminants. The electrical component enclosure is completely sealed from the outside environ-
ment. Each BRICK has its own microprocessor that enables the BRICK to know its addressable location in
the sign matrix. This capability allows BRICKs to be moved anywhere in the sign matrix, without individu-
ally addressing each display with dip switches or special wiring harnesses.
The connectors that mate with the rail are on the reverse side of the BRICK. Each BRICK is installed by
pushing the BRICK onto the rail to make the connection. Each BRICK can be removed and replaced
without disturbing other modules. A vandal-resistant, hold-down lock device secures each BRICK onto the
rail. The BRICK is a High density 96 pixel 384 LED configuration.
BRICK material and dimension information is summarized in the following table:
