Lifting the Display
The top of each display is equipped with lift
plates at the top corners. Use all lift plates when
lifting the display. Ensure the angle between the
LED panel and the cable or chain is more than
.
The lift plates are designed to carry only the
weight of the display. Do not lift the mounting
structure or other additional weight. Do not
permanently support the display with the lift
plates.
Contact Daktronics with additional questions
about lifting the display.
Display Mounting
Securely mount each display to a suitable
mounting structure provided by others.
Daktronics attached aluminum angles to the top
and bottom corners of the display for mounting.
Use all angles when mounting the display.
Use appropriate hardware to support the weight of the display. Have a qualified
engineer inspect the mounting structure.
After installing the display, inspect the top and sides of the display for any openings
that may allow moisture to enter the display. Seal openings with silicone or another
waterproof sealant. Not sealing openings will void the warranty.
Traffic Cabinet Mounting
Ground Mounting
Secure the traffic cabinet to a concrete pad using anchor bolts. Daktronics recommends
using
3
/
4
" stainless steel anchor bolts. When anchoring the traffic cabinet to the concrete
pad, make sure the bottom of the cabinet allows for water drainage. Do not seal the
cabinet to the concrete pad as this prevents water from draining properly.
The conduit for power and signal enter through the open area in the bottom of the
cabinet.
Pole Mounting
Mount the cabinet using the pole-mount brackets. Make sure the brackets are secured
at all locations.
