Replacing a Digit
The digit circuit board, the platform for the LEDs, is mounted to the back of the digit
panel. Do not attempt to remove individual LEDs. In the case of a malfunctioning
board, replace the entire digit panel. Refer to Figure 8 below.
To remove a display digit, follow these steps:
1. Open the digit panel as described in the preceding section.
Figure 8: Digit Installation
2. Disconnect the connector from the back of the digit. Release the connector
by squeezing together the locking tabs as you pull the connector free.
3. The digits are secured to the inside of the panel with fixed machine screws,
spacers, and push nuts. Remove the nuts and lift the digit off the standoff
screws. (The push nuts can be removed in several ways, but Daktronics
recommends using a
9 /
32
" nut driver.)
4. Position a new digit over the screws and replace and tighten the nuts.
5. Reconnect the power/signal connector.
Note: This is a keyed connector B it will attach in one way only. Do not
attempt to force the connection!
6. Close and secure the digit panel and test the display.
