System
The Colonial Mall Display system comprises of 2 Graphics Display Board, a Control Box, and the
GRAFIT 1.18b graphics software package. The Display is 48 pixels high by 128 pixels wide and
uses ultra-bright amber, wide angle LED technology. The housing is fabricated from aluminium
extrusion and has a silver powder coat finish. To increase visibility and protect the lens, an
aluminium louver system is fitted to the front of the Display.
Each of the two displays consists of two units; A and B. At installation, the Power, Serial and Data
cables from Unit A are connected to Terminal Blocks in Unit B.
The Control Box contains the Modem for remote communication, the serial and power conections for
the box, and a Temp Probe and Temp Controller to allow the Display to show the Temperature. The
wiring from the Modem and Temp Controller are routed to the V53 Logic Boards in the Displays via
cable glands at the bottom of the Box.
The displays are controlled from a host PC using the GRAFIT graphics software. Users can create
and edit both text and graphic messages. The Display Board can show a combination of static and
scrolling messages, normal, large, and/or specialized fonts as well as various ON/OFF effects such
as Flash, Jump, Wipe Sparkle etc.
Warning
Only trained and authorised personnel should do tests and maintenance on this Display
Board System.
