AlphaXpress 8731 Sign Installation and Maintenance Manual (pn 1508610601 rev. A)

LED driver board

The size of the sign determines the number of driver boards in the sign (for example, a 27 x 54 sign would
have 27 driver boards; a 27 x 72 sign would have 36). Each board is 6 x 9 pixels, and each pixel is composed
of 8 LED lamps.
