3� Power on the control console and enter the appropriate sport code found on the
keyboard overlay and in the All Sport manual listed in Light Strip Controllers (p�3)
to test the light strips.
For multiple tables with light strips, connect 5' (1.5 m) 3-pin XLR cables (part # W-1627)
between the tables. The XLR input and output jacks are located behind the left and right
rear access doors. Refer to Figure 15 .
Radio Control
Instead of running a wired connection
from an All Sport console, an optional radio
receiver may be installed inside the table. A
control console equipped with an optional
radio transmitter is required.
The All Sport radio receiver is typically held
in place with adhesive-backed, hook-and-
loop fastener strips, and when ordered as
original equipment may already be installed.
The only installation required is attachment
of the radio antenna, which may have been
shipped separately to prevent damage. If
the radio receiver is not already installed:
1� Position the radio receiver unit so the antenna connector can extend through the
hole in the front of the cable tray as shown in Figure 16 .
2� Remove the backing from the fastener strips on the unit, and then firmly press it
against the interior, sticking the adhesive to the sheet metal.
3� Remove the blank plate in the rear of the cable tray to route the receiver unit’s cable
with 6-pin plug down to the light strip driver location.
4� Open the lower-right access panel. Connect the 6-pin plug from the receiver unit
into the 6-pin to 5-pin adapter (part # W-1913), and then connect the adapter to the
mating 5-pin jack on the light strip driver harness labeled J45 .
5� Note that the antenna connector now protrudes through the front of the cable tray.
a� Install and tighten the lock washer and nut on the antenna connector.
b� Mount the external antenna on the connector, turning the nut on the antenna
until it is snug.
c� Rotate the antenna so that it is pointing straight upward (it should look like a
capital “L” when viewed from the side).
The radio receiver is preset to Channel 1. If there are other displays in the facility
operating with radio signal that should NOT be synchronized to the light strips, the
receiver must be set to a different channel number. The values set on the receiver must
then match the settings in the controller; refer to Light Strip Controllers (p�3) . If the
radio receiver channel and broadcast settings do match those set in the console but
the console does not control the light strips, there may be radio interference. In this case,
change the settings of the radio receiver unit inside the table as well as the settings in the
console, as described in the radio control manuals.
For more information, refer to the
Gen VI Radio Installation Manual (DD2362277) ,
provided with the radio receiver and available online at www.daktronics.com/manuals .
