Fiber Optic
Another common signal communication method is fiber optic
cabling. A minimum cabling of multi-mode, 62.5/125 um, and
2-core fiber cable is recommended (part # W-1242). See Figure 23
for the location of the fiber connector on a 16-column driver. This
method requires a signal converter between the All Sport
console’s scoreboard output and the fiber optic cable (not
provided by Daktronics).
3.6 Power/Signal Between Sections
Multi-court scoreboard models require multiple drivers in each scoreboard section, and use a
master/slave driver system. When one section has multiple drivers, they simply plug into
one another, and this is done at the factory. Drivers between sections, however, require
additional on-site connection as described below.
Three-Section Models
The primary driver and power panel will be located in the top section. Refer to the
component location drawings attached to the product specification sheets listed in
Appendix A for exact driver locations.
Open access panels as needed to locate the coiled bundles of interconnect cable, then route
and connect the cables as described below and shown in Figure 24.
1. Route the interconnect cable labeled P51 coming from the A2 driver in the middle
section up into the top section and connect it to the J51 jack coming from the power
panel and A1 driver.
2. Route one end of the other interconnect cable labeled P51 from the middle section up
into the top section and connect it to the J50 jack coming from the power panel and
A1 driver.
3. Route the other end of the interconnect cable labeled J52 from the middle section down
into the bottom section and connected to the P52 plug coming from the A5 driver.
