3.1 Mechanical Installation
The scoreboards in this manual are portable and are equipped with a handle on the top for easy transport.
Note: The handles are designed for carrying only and are not to be used as a temporary hanger or for permanent mounting.
3.2 Power & Signal
The displays receive power through a 120 V AC power cord. The power cord plugs into a standard three-pronged outlet. Flip the switch on the side of the display to power it on. The display will remain blank until it receives signal from a controller.
Signal is provided in one of two ways: 1) via a 9-pin serial to 4-pin XLR cable (Daktronics part number 0A-1196-0095) connected to the J31 signal input on the side of the display from the top of the All Sport 100 console or 2) via radio transmission from the RC-50 controller to the built in antenna. Refer to Drawing A-274283.
Note: Before using the RC-50, the All Sport 100 must first be connected to the timer in order to set the practice values as described in the All Sport 100 Control Console Operations Manual (ED-13432). Then the RC-50 can be used to run the practice from anywhere on the field without being constrained by control cable.
Extension XLR cables are available from Daktronics.

4.4 Adjusting the Horn Volume
Scoreboard Troubleshooting 9
The horn volume is set at its maximum level at the factory. If the horn is too loud, reduce its volume by adjusting the set screw mounted in the front of the horn. A plastic tip on the screw touches the horn's diaphragm, reducing the volume. Turn the screw clockwise and test the volume by operating the horn from the scoreboard control console. Continue adjusting and testing until the desired volume level is obtained.

4.6 Daktronics Exchange and Repair & Return Programs
Exchange Program
The Daktronics Exchange Program is a quick, economical service for replacing key components in need of repair. If a component fails, Daktronics sends a replacement part to the customer who, in turn, returns the failed component to Daktronics. This not only saves money but also decreases equipment downtime. Customers who follow the program guidelines explained below will receive this service.
Before Contacting Daktronics
Identify these important numbers:
Display Serial Number: _________________________________________________________ Display Model Number: _________________________________________________________ Contract Number: ______________________________________________________________ Date Installed: _________________________________________________________________ Daktronics Customer ID Number: ________________________________________________
To participate in the Exchange Program, follow these steps.
1. Call Daktronics Customer Service.
2. When the new exchange part is received, mail the old part to Daktronics.
If the replacement part fixes the problem, send in the problem part which is being replaced.
a. Package the old part in the same shipping materials in which the replacement
part arrived.
b. Fill out and attach the enclosed UPS shipping document. c. Ship the part to Daktronics.
3. A charge will be made for the replacement part immediately, unless a qualifying
service agreement is in place. In most circumstances, the replacement part will be invoiced at the time it is shipped.
If the failed part or replacement part is not returned to Daktronics within 3 weeks of the ship date, Daktronics will assume that the customer is purchasing the replacement part and will send an invoice for the value of the new sale part. If the part or parts are returned within 2 weeks of the second invoice date, Daktronics will credit the customer for the second invoice.
Scoreboard Troubleshooting 11
If after 2 weeks Daktronics has still not received the parts back, the customer must pay the second invoice and will not be credited for the return of the failed part. Daktronics reserves the right to refuse parts that have been damaged due to acts of nature or causes other than normal wear and tear.
Repair & Return Program
For items not subject to exchange, Daktronics offers a Repair & Return Program. To send a part for repair, follow these steps:
1. Call or fax Daktronics Customer Service:
Refer to the appropriate market number in the chart listed on the previous page.
2. Receive a Return Materials Authorization (RMA) number before shipping.
This expedites repair of the part.

The arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be held in Brookings, South Dakota. Any decision rendered in such arbitration proceedings will be final and binding on each of the parties, and judgment may be entered thereon in any court of competent jurisdiction. This arbitration agreement is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
The rights and obligations of the parties under this warranty shall not be governed by the provisions of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sales of Goods of 1980. Both parties consent to the application of the laws of the State of South Dakota to govern, interpret, and enforce all of Purchaser and Daktronics rights, duties, and obligations arising from, or relating in any manner to, the subject matter of this Warranty, without regard to conflict of law principles.
