Daktronics BB-2102 Tuff Sport Four-Sided Basketball LED Scoreboard - Manual (Page 16)

10 Mechanical Installation
3.3 Assembly Overview
The assembly kit includes the following:
 Floor frame – 2 halves, 2 side splice plates, and 4 top & bottom splice plates
 Corner shrouds @ 4
 Shroud brackets @ 8
 Top corner brackets @ 4
 Assorted bolts, nuts, washers, and screws
In addition to the scoreboard pieces, an installation may also include:
 Upper and lower ad panels
 A message center at the top or bottom of the scoreboard
Each scoreboard face section is one piece and must be attached to the structural frame.
The frame is shipped in two parts and requires some assembly. Corner shrouds, which
provide cosmetic covering only, are attached to the display last.
Ad panels may simply be painted metal cabinets that do not need power, or they may be
backlit, requiring a 120 V circuit. An LED message center requires power as well as signal
wiring. The scoreboard itself requires power and signal wiring. The scoreboard tilts outward
at approximately 10°, while the ad panels or message centers are vertical (except for BB-2146
and BB-2147, where the opposite is true). Refer to Section A-A shown on the mechanical
specification drawings in Appendix A.

Field Assembly; 10' x 10' Bolted Frame ................................................Drawing B-1102115
Field Assembly; 10' x 10' SS Bolted Frame ..........................................Drawing B-1102140
The scoreboard frame is shipped in two sections (refer to Drawings B-1101988 and B-1102115
in Appendix E). Note that each section has two corners with a brace across the corner and
two corners without a brace. The lift tubes in the braced corners will be on the top side. An
optional sheet metal floor may be attached to the top side of the frame sections during
manufacturing.
1. Lay out the two sections with the unbraced sides facing each other and the corner lift
tubes facing up.
2. Connect the sections together in the middle using 1 /
2
" hardware.
3. Attach all six section splice plates using 1 /
2
" hardware. Two splice plates will go on
the sides, while two smaller splice plates will go on both the top and bottom.
Note: If an optional canvas was ordered, attach it to the bottom of the frame using the
provided hook and loop fastener strips and self-drilling screws. Refer to DWG-
173611 in Appendix C for more information on this option.
BB-2146 and BB-2147
For BB-2146 and BB-2147 models, refer to Drawing B-1102140. These models include LED
message centers that require additional “kickers” for support.
