This manual will walk you through the installation of the scoreboard step by step, from deciding
where to install the scoreboard to testing the installed system. If at any time during the installation
you have a question to which the answer cannot be found in this manual, please do not hesitate to
call Scoreboard Service Company (800) 411-3136. Technicians are on call 24 hours a day to answer
all of your installation, operation, and maintenance questions.
Following is an overview of the steps involved in the installation of the scoreboard. In order to
make the installation process as quick and easy as possible, follow these steps in order:
1)
Review the architect’s specifications below.
2)
Determine the scoreboard’s location and orientation and install the mounting poles/beams.
3) Join one DSP-8 sponsor section with sections A, B, and C using two of the four 18
’ mounting
angle irons creating a left section assembly, and join the next DSP-8 sponsor section with
sections D, E, F, and G using the remaining two 18
’ mounting angle irons creating a right
section assembly.
4) Connect wiring and install crossover bushings between cabinets A/Band B/C in the left section
assembly and between cabinets D/E, E/F, and F/G in the right section assembly.
5) Mount the left section assembly to the mounting poles/beams.
6) Mount the right section assembly to the mounting poles/beams.
7) Connect wiring and install crossover bushings between cabinets C (in the left section assembly)
and D (in the right section assembly).
8) Install any options; such as sponsor panels, horns, or protective screens according to the
installation instructions included with each option.
9) Run and connect the control cable for cable-controlled systems. No additional installation is
necessary for Wireless Remote Control systems as the wireless receiver is built-in the
scoreboard.
10) Run and connect the electrical service to the scoreboard and the controller.
11) Test the installed system.
