Webcam Mounting

Standard 10-20 Foot Adjustable-Length Webcam Arm
Installation
Daktronics ships all displays with a webcam that are greater than 12’ tall and less than
17’ tall with a 10’-15’ adjustable-length arm. The arm is adjustable to either 10’ or 15’.
The reason for the adjustable length is that, for every foot of display height, the webcam
must be an equal number of feet from the display face to be able to view all of the
modules on the display face. For example, a display 14’ tall must have the webcam
approximately 14’ from the display face. A 20’ webcam arm is shipped with all displays
taller than 18’. Refer to DWG-1142216 and DWG-1142217 in Section A: Reference
Drawings (p�25) while following the installation instructions.
Installation
1� Determine which side of the display to mount the
arm. Mount the webcam on the side of the display
away from oncoming traffic. This ensures the view of
the display is not inhibited.
2� Remove the mounting bolts and the mounting
channel from the assembly.
3� Slide two of the mounting channels and bolts into the
horizontal mounting channel on the display back.
Refer to Figure 23 .
4� Slide the two remaining channels into the vertical
mounting channel on the display back.
5� Place the bolting template over the bolts in the
channel. The bolting template is important as it makes
mounting the arm assembly easier. Refer to Figure 24 .
6� Mount the elbow assembly to the back of the
display by sliding the mounting bolts through the arm
mounting assembly.
7� Place washers on all four mounting bolts.
8� Securely fasten a nut on each mounting bolt. Torque
to 75 ft lbs
9� Fasten a second nut on each mounting bolt. The
second nut serves as a lock nut to secure the first nut.
10� Slide the webcam arm into the lower part of the
elbow arm assembly. The webcam arm slides 12” into
the elbow assembly.
11� Ensure the webcam is on the top of the webcam arm
and tighten the arm set bolts.
• For a 10’-arm, the webcam arm bolts must feed through the pivoting arm, the
6’-arm section and the 10’-arm section. This sets the webcam 10’ from the display
face.
• For a 20’-arm, insert one set of bolts through the pivoting arm and the 6’-arm
section. Insert a second set of bolts on the end of the 6’-arm section away from
the display face and at the base of the 10’-arm section. This sets the webcam 15’
from the display face.
