The driver has 16 jacks (one per column) for switching digit pixels.  

Figure 12

 shows the pin 

assignments and color code for the plugs that mate to these jacks.  The jacks are divided into two 
groups as follows:  
 

Master Digits:

 J1, J3, J5, J7, J9, J11, J13, J15 

Slave Digits:

 J2, J4, J6, J8, J10, J12, J14, J16 

 
Plugs from all the digits are connected directly into these jacks on the driver.

The Display Controller 

 

The Series 50 display controller is locked inside the display cabinet next to the driver.  It controls 
all operations of the display.  It keeps track of the time and stores programmed values.  The 
controller processes internal information and information from inputs and sends display data out 
to the driver.
