system bay or components may
vary slightly by display. Refer
to project-specific drawings for
display control location, signal
path, and power path.
Display Power
Overview
Each 400 W power supply powers
four modules in DXB series
billboards. In most cases, the module power path follows the signal path.
Power to the display section enters into the termination panel and is redistributed to the
power supplies. Refer to the layout drawing for display-specific power distribution.
Display Signal Overview
This section provides generic signal path illustrations for even tall height, odd by even tall
height, and odd by odd tall height.
Signal is sent from the DMP-8000 to the VIP-5160. The VIP-5160 sends signal to the PLR,
which sends the signal to the first module in the section. From that module, the signal is
sent to the other modules in the section. The PLR not only sends signal to the first module
in the chain but also receives signal from the last module in the chain and creates a
redundant signal path.
