4.1 Line-To-Line Cable Installation
LED Driver
In the display, the driver, shown in
Figure 10, switches digits on and off. One driver at each display
installation is designated as the host driver (the driver with the antenna or communication signal connection).
This driver receives its signal directly from a
control unit via the Comm Port connector J16. The
drivers in the remaining display faces are referred
to as clients.
Display Interconnect Wiring
Signal travels from the host
driver jack J9 to additional
display drivers through the
Line-to-Line cable. Line-to-line
connections are made using
jacks J9 and J10 on the driver.
The preferred cable routing has
signal leaving each driver from
jack J9 and entering the next
driver on jack J10
Each time you connect the line-
to-line cable to J9, you must
also connect the drain wire to
the upper-left stud that holds
the driver in place.
1. Connect the provided line-to-line cable, shown in Figure 11, to host driver jack J9. The host driver can
be identified by having the communication option attached to jack J16.
2. Place the drain wire of the line-to-line cable on the upper-left stud that holds the driver in place, as
