Mechanical Installation 2-3
If the lift eyebolts are removed, plug the holes with bolts and the rubber sealing
washers that were removed with the eyebolts. Apply silicone or another waterproof
sealant to the eyebolt openings. Inspect the top and sides of the display for any other
holes or openings that may allow moisture to enter the display, and plug and seal
those openings as well.

Scoreboard digit modules may be mounted directly to a wall, to universal mounting
struts (channels), or to some other support structure. Modular construction permits
varied configurations, and the unique requirements of each facility will determine
the setup and anchoring method best suited for the display.
For wall-mounted installations, Daktronics recommends using universal mounting
struts, or channels. Use
3
/
8
" bolts through the holes in both ends of the module frame.
For displays with multiple digit modules (such as a combined player scoring module
and a team score module), mount the lowest module first and work upward. Flush
wall mounting requires standard bolts and anchors, which can be found in most
hardware stores.
Before installing any wall anchors or a mounting structure, determine where all of
the mounting holes will be located on the display modules. Holes provided on the
modules should be convenient for most installations.
Wall Mounting, Outdoors or Indoors
Use this method when the scoreboard is a single digit module or when the display
includes individual and team score modules joined at top and bottom:
1. Attach the universal channel struts to the wall. Refer to Drawing A-130545
for the attachment procedure.
2. Attach the caption module to the digit module before attaching the digit
module to the wall. (See Section 2.2.)
