Modem: This is the general term given to both the sending and receiving device.
The sending modem can be either internal or external to the computer. Another
modem must be used at the display to receive the signal and transfer it to the
display’s controller. Two jumpers will need to be used on the controller for it to
recognize the modem.
Module: The 68mm Galaxy modules are 4 pixels high by 4 pixels wide. They
consist of display boards and louvers in one unit. They are individually removable
from the display. One driver is used to controller each section of four modules.
