All displays in the DataTime
®
series use a light sensor to regulate dimming functions and a temperature
sensor to collect and display temperature information. Both temperature and light-monitoring electronics are
located in the sensor housing, shown in
.
The Daktronics Controller Area
Network (CAN) Temperature/Light
Sensor is pre-installed in a protective
housing. The assembly includes the
sensor, mounting bracket, and cabling
with a quick-connect plug. Instructions
that follow describe the placement
and connection of the device. Review
the wiring diagram and connection
illustration in Drawing A-184840 before
beginning.
Dimming involves decreasing overall
display intensity, both for better display
viewing and to prolong LED life. Set the
brightness level highest during the day
to compete with daylight, and lower at night.
