2.2 Component Locations & Access

All indoor scoreboards are front-access, meaning that internal electronic components and digits are reached by opening a digit panel on the front of the display.
Digit panels are typically held in place on the scoreboard face by screws. To remove a digit, simply unfasten the screws and carefully lift it from the cabinet. The power/signal plug can then be removed from the connector on the back of the digit to completely free the digit and access internal components.
Component location varies with each scoreboard model, but drivers and power and signal components are typically mounted inside the scoreboard behind a digit panel. To locate the driver(s), look for a warning label similar to that shown in Figure 4.
For model-specific component layouts and access locations, refer to the electrical and signal or component location drawings attached to the product specifications

16-Column “Gyrus” Drivers
16-Column Drivers (prior to April 2015) & 4-Column Drivers

Multiple Drivers

Scoreboards that require multiple drivers operate using a primary/secondary driver configuration. The two drivers have been designed to simply plug into one another, and this is done at the factory, so no additional on-site connection is necessary.
If it appears as though only a certain group of digits on the scoreboard is not functioning, there may be a problem with the secondary driver(s) or the power/signal connection from the other driver(s).
Note: The BB-2117 and BB-2119 require an interconnect cable between their driver and the driver in the BB-2116. Refer to appropriate schematics listed in Appendix B.

Replacing a Driver

If the driver status indicators do not appear to be working correctly, it may be necessary to replace the driver.
1. Open the digit panel or scoreboard face panel as described in Section 2.2.
2. Disconnect all connectors from the driver by squeezing together the locking tabs and
pulling the connectors free. It may be helpful to label the cables to know which cable goes to which connector when reattaching the driver.
3. Remove the wing nuts securing the driver to the driver tray.
4. Carefully lift the driver from the display and place it on a clean, flat surface.
5. Position a new driver over the screws and tighten the nuts.
6. Reconnect all power/signal connectors.
Note: The connectors are keyed and will attach in one way only. Do not attempt to
force the connections.
7. Ensure the driver is set to the correct address (refer to Setting the Driver Address).
8. Close and secure the access panel, then power up and test the scoreboard to see if
changing the driver has resolved the problem.

Setting the Driver Address

Since the same LED drivers can be used for many scoreboard models, each driver must be set to receive the correct signal input, or address, for the model being used. The way the address is set depends on the driver type:
For 16-column “Gyrus” drivers, addresses
For older 16-column and 4-column drivers, addresses

2.5 Radio Connections

To determine the settings for radio connections between the scoreboard and control console:
1. Power off any radio-equipped consoles in the area.
2. Cycle power to the scoreboard, and watch for the radio settings. These settings
appear in different locations based on the scoreboard layout:
When using the All Sport 5000
controller, the scoreboard will
display “bX CY” where X is the
Broadcast group number and Y is the Channel number. The default is b1C1.
o If there is a clock, the settings
appear in the first four clock digits (Figure 11).
o If there is no clock, the settings
should appear in the Home and Guest score digits, but this may vary by scoreboard model.
When using the RC-100 controller,
the scoreboard will display “CXX”, where the XX is a channel from 01­15 (Figure 12). The default is channel 01.
Note: If these settings do not appear, the radio receiver may need to be repaired/replaced.
To make sure the console radio settings match the receiver in the scoreboard, refer to the appropriate control console manual.
All Sport Radio Settings RC-100 Radio Settings

Radio Interference

If it has been determined that a nearby scoreboard’s radio signal is interfering, the settings of the radio receiver or wireless base station inside the scoreboard(s) must be changed.
1. To locate the radio receiver or base station, simply look for the black antenna sticking
out the front of the scoreboard. Component location drawings also show the exact position where the radio receiver will be mounted.
2. Open the access panel to which the receiver is attached as described in Section 2.2.
The channel selection process varies depending on whether the scoreboard is equipped with or a radio receiver (All Sport 5000) or a wireless base station (RC-100).

to test the radio connection.
For more information, refer to the Remote Control System RC-100 All Sport Operation Manual (ED-15133).

2.6 Segmentation & Digit Designation

In each digit, certain LEDs always go on and off together. These groupings of LEDs are called segments. Drawing A-38532 in Appendix C details which connector pin is wired to each digit segment and the wiring color code used throughout the scoreboard.
The Electrical and Signal drawings and Component Location drawings also specify the driver connectors controlling the digits. Numbers shown in hexagons in the upper half of each digit indicate which connector is wired to that digit.

2.7 Schematics

For advanced scoreboard troubleshooting and repair, it may be necessary to consult the schematic drawings. Listed in Appendix B, schematic drawings show detailed power and signal wiring diagrams of internal display components such as drivers, horn interface cards, and transformers as well as optional components like TNMCs, radio receivers, and end of period (EOP) lighting.

Troubleshooting & Maintenance
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. Always disconnect scoreboard power before doing any repair work on the displays.
2. Permit only qualified service personnel to access internal display electronics.
3. Disconnect power when not using the scoreboard.

3.1 Display Overview

Team Name Message Centers (TNMCs) are programmable LED displays that allow users to show custom Home and Guest names or messages of ~15 characters on the scoreboard in place of static vinyl captions. TNMCs are typically ordered factory-installed, but they may also be field-mounted after the scoreboard is in place. Characters are shown on one line using single- or double-stroke fonts.
Electronic captions, on the other hand, are pre-programmed to only show specific labels to match the captions for a particular sport mode, making it much simpler to switch between sports. Characters are shown on one line using single-stroke fonts.
Primary matrix size is 8x48 with 0.75" pixel spacing. Figure 16 shows examples of both TNMCs and electronic captions.
* Weight shown is for a pair of displays. ** Only used on BB-2116 and H-2101. *** Only used on tennis scoreboards.
TNMC & Electronic Caption Troubleshooting & Maintenance 17

Symptom/Condition
Possible Remedy
One or more LEDs on a single module fails to light or turn off
Check/replace the ribbon cables on the module.
Replace the module (see Section 3.6).
A section of the display is not working; section extends all the way to the right side of the display
Check/replace the ribbon cables running to the first module that is not working.
Replace the first module/driver on the left side of the first module that is not working (see Section 3.6).
Replace the second module that is not working (see Section 3.6).
Replace the power supply assembly on the first module that is not working (see Section 3.6).
One row of modules does not work or is garbled
Replace the first module (see Section 3.6).
Replace the display driver (see Section 3.6).
A group of modules which shares the same power supply assembly fails to work
Replace the power supply assembly (see Section 3.6).
Entire display fails to work
Check for proper line voltage into the power termination panel.
Check/replace the ribbon cable to the modules.
Check the voltage settings on the power supplies.
Check/replace the signal cable to the display driver.
Replace the display driver (see Section 3.6).

3.2 Initialization Information at Startup

Every time the display is powered up and there is no All Sport® signal present, the display will run through an initialization process, during which it will test all LEDs and addresses. First, the message center will display the proper address number.
If the entire display fails at startup, power may not be properly connected, or the address setting may not be correct on the display driver. Check both in the event of a failure.

3.3 Display Troubleshooting Table

The table below lists potential problems with the display and indicates possible causes and corrective actions. This list does not include every symptom that may be encountered, but it does present several of the most common situations that may occur.
Many of the solutions offered below provide references to other sections within this manual with further detail on how to fix the problem.
If a problem occurs that is not listed or that cannot be resolved using the solutions in the following table, contact Daktronics using the information provided in Section 4.

3.4 Power & Signal Summary

Refer to Drawing B-1132254 or B-1133209 in Appendix B for detailed schematics about display power and signal routing.
Display signal routing can be summarized as follows:
1. Data from the All Sport
(or radio) into the scoreboard.
2. The signal then travels through the driver, typically re-driven from the driver TB-31 to
the current loop interface (CLI) cards located on the right-hand module of each display and then to the first LED module via ribbon cable.
3. The signal relays from module to module via ribbon cable in daisy-chain style until it
reaches the last module in the display.
Display power routing can be summarized as follows:
1. Incoming power from the power cord terminates at the main scoreboard LED driver tray.
2. Using interconnect harnesses, the power for TNMCs is passed from the driver tray to
the Home display power supply, and then to the Guest display power supply. In stat display electronic captions, each power supply receives power from a separate driver.
3. Power from the power supplies is relayed to all display modules.
4. The modules draw their power directly from the power supply assemblies; the
display driver receives power out from the first module via ribbon cable.
®
controller (or DakTennis™ software) travels via signal cable

3.5 Component Locations & Access

To access the internal components of the display, simply remove the screws on either side of the face panel that secure it to the scoreboard. Carefully remove the face panel from the scoreboard, as there will be several cables connected to it. Drawings B-1130367 and B-1130784 in Appendix C provide a detailed view of each display component and the connections between them.

3.6 Replacing a Component

1. Access the internal components as described in Section 3.5.
2. Disconnect all power/signal cables from the component by squeezing together the
locking tabs and pulling the connectors free. It may be helpful to label the cables to know which cable goes to which connector when reattaching.
3. Remove the hardware securing the component to the display face panel.
Note: In order to replace the right-most module circuit board (when viewing the
display from the front), the power supply bracket and driver circuit board must be removed from it first.
4. Position a new component on the display face panel and tighten the hardware.
5. Reconnect all power/signal connectors.
6. Power up and test the scoreboard/display to see if the problem has been resolved.
Refer to Figure 17 for display assembly, showing the power supply, driver, and modules.

3.7 Display Drivers

Display drivers, also known as controllers or shift cards, use a 12-pin plug that mates with jack J4 to set the address. For TNMCs, the address plug is set to 1 (221). A typical Player-Foul-Points electronic caption for statistics displays uses address 3 (223) while a scoreboard with electronic captions uses address 8 (228). Pin 11 on the address plug selects whether to show Home data (connected) or Guest data (not connected). Refer to Drawing A-123794 in Appendix C for addressing information.
Note: Refer to Drawing A-3019367 for TNMC addressing information of tennis systems with up to 12 courts.
Figure 18 illustrates some of the primary jacks and indicators of a display driver.
