3-2 Electrical Installation
3. Termination Panels & Termination Blocks:
Termination panels and termination blocks connect
internal power and signal wires to wires of the same
type coming into the display from an external
source. Most signal wire comes with forked
connectors crimped to the ends of the wire. Power
wires need to have one-half inch of insulation
stripped from the end of the wire prior to
termination. Tighten all screws firmly to ensure a
good electrical connection. Refer to Figure 32.
4. Phoenix-Style Connectors:
Phoenix-style connectors, which are usually green, terminate signal on
circuit boards. Refer to Figure 33. Strip one-quarter inch of insulation from
the wire prior to termination. To remove a wire, turn the above screw
counter-clockwise to loose the connectors grip on the wire. To insert a
wire, push the bare wire into the connector and turn the above screw
clockwise to lock the wire into place.
5. Mate-n-Lok™ Connectors:
The Mate-n-Lok connectors found in this display are
white and come in a variety of sizes. Figure 34 illustrates a
four-pin Mate-n-Lok connector. To remove the plug from
the jack, squeeze the plastics locking clasps of the side of
the plug and pull it from the jack.
4. Tab
Connectors:
The tab connector, illustrated in Figure 35, is in most
Daktronics displays. Grab the connector on the plastic
terminal cover when removing. Do NOT pull it off the tab
by pulling on the wire.
