Terms Used in this Manual
DMP-8000:
Digital billboard content player that sends content to the VIP.
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 65 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.
VIP-5160:
Video processor that sends video to the display and controls dimming, color
