Terms Used in this Manual

Lanyard Attachment Ring:

 A ring found on the back of each module and on the display 

doors that attaches to a lanyard and prevents the module from falling.

Latch Release: 

Releases the latch that holds the module firmly in the display. The latches 

are centered near the top and bottom of the module.

Light Emitting Diode (LED):

 Low-energy, high-intensity lighting unit.

Line Filter:

 Removes electromagnetic noise that might interfere with local communication 

channels from the power system.

Module: 

Consists of a display board with LEDs, a driver board or logic card, housing, a 

module latch assembly, and a louver. Each module is individually removable from either 

the front or back of the display. Module part numbers vary by pixel pitch.

ProLink Router (PLR):

 The PLR takes data in and then routes that data to other areas in the 

sign. There is typically one PLR per display section.

Power Supply:

 A device that converts AC line voltage from the panel board to low DC 

voltage for driver boards. In the 5000 series, one power supply powers two modules, one 

controller, or a ProLink Router (PLR).

Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) Cable: 

Allows high speed signal from 

flow from device to device. In digital billboards, they run signal from module to module 

and from the PLR to the modules.

Termination Block:

 An electrical connection point, usually used to connect internal 

power and signal wires of the same type coming into the display from an external 

source.

DMP-8065: 

Digital billboard control card that sends content to the display. The DMP limits 

the display to static content and regulates content hold times.
