Each output card has two signal outputs, as shown in Figure 32. Signal #1 travels to one of the
display’s column directors, Figure 34, while signal #2 would go to another. The number of
signals a data distributor can send depends on the number of output cards.
Each signal routes to four jacks in case there is the need to send the same signal to multiple
displays. If sending data to a single display, the data will use only one of the four jacks on each
signal output.
In Figure 32, the jacks on each signal output (signal #1 and signal #2) are labeled A, B, C or D.
The column directors within a display should all receive data from the same jack on both signal
outputs on every output card. For instance, if only one display were present, one column director
would be connected via RJ45 cable to A on signal #1 and another would be connected via another
RJ45 cable to A on signal #2. This would be true of every output card in the data distributor.
The System Riser Diagram and/or schematics found in either Appendix A of this manual or in
the System Overview manual, if present, will illustrate which column directors within the display
receive signal from which data distributor outputs. Remember, each output card has two outputs.
Figure 33 labels the A outputs of a 10 output card data distributor. Ten is the maximum number
of output cards the data distributor can accommodate. This display may have two, four, six, eight
or ten output cards.
Column directors within the display receive signal from the output cards in the data distributor.
The signal then routes from the column directors to the line controllers.
