Mechanical Installation

Important Notes:

• Read and understand these instructions before installing the display.
• Do not drop the transmitter/controller or allow it to become wet.
• Disconnect power when servicing or not using the display.
• Do not modify the display structure or attach any panels or coverings without the express written consent of Daktronics, Inc.

Sign Structure Design

• Structure design is critical and should be done only by a qualified individual.
• It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the sign structure and the connectors are adequate.
• The customer must also ensure the installation meets local standards.
• Daktronics is not responsible for installations, the mounting structure or its structural integrity, or for the quality of the mounting hardware used to attach the displays to the support structure. Structure and attachment must conform to all applicable local and national building codes.

Ventilation and Temperature Requirements
Firelight™ Petroleum Price digit displays are front ventilated. The display must NOT be fully enclosed inside a support structure or sign or behind a sign face of plastic, glass, or other material. The front of the display must be exposed to the air to allow for  convection cooling.
Fuelight™ displays are designed to operate in ambient temperatures ranging from -40°F to 120°F (-40°C to 49°C). However, overall sign structure design and ventilation should keep the Fuelight™ display cabinet interior below 140°F (60°C).

Items to consider when designing a sign package to house LED price displays include:

• Solar gain from the black face of the displays
• Solar gain from other sign cabinet surfaces
• Heat gain from electronics inside the displays
• Passive or active airflow with adequate intake and exhaust areas

Daktronics is not responsible for high-temperature failure due to inadequate ventilation.

Display Installation

1. Remove existing displays.

2. Provide a rectangular opening in the sign structure to accommodate the Fuelight™ Petroleum Price display. Refer to the Shop Drawing for cutout dimensions.

3. Ensure there is a continuous minimum depth of 2.5 (64 mm) within the cutout to accommodate the body of the Fuelight™ display.

4. Hand lift displays into the sign structure. Figure 4 shows a display being inserted into a sign structure.
   Note: Daktronics assumes no liability for display damage or injury resulting from incorrect setup or incorrect lifting methods.

5. Drill through the front flanges of the cabinet to attach the display to the structure using appropriate hardware for site conditions. Refer to Figure 5. Actual site demands will dictate variances and appropriate mounting methods.

6. Repair and seal any unused openings in the sign structure.
   Note: Openings greater than 1/2″ (13 mm) in diameter require a metal patch secured by screws or rivets and caulked with non-hardening caulk. Smaller openings may be sealed with non-hardening caulk.

Electrical Installation

Electrical installation consists of routing power to the power supply located in each display face.
Each Shop Drawing shows details on installation and access for electrical connections.
Refer to the notes on the appropriate Shop Drawing for the electrical requirements for that size of display.
The front panels of Daktronics Fuelight™ displays are hinged to allow access to the digits, cabling, and other electronic components. Refer to Access Internal Components (p.6) for cabinet access details.

Warnings and Disclaimers

• Ensure that all electrical work meets or exceeds all local or national electrical codes.
• Provide the required power to the display as listed on the product labels, specifications, or site-specific riser drawings. The conductor size may vary based on the length of the power run.
• Consider implementing a separate circuit for the display using an isolation transformer or dedicated transformer.
• Daktronics assumes no liability for any issues caused by line voltage fluctuations or other improper power conditions.

Important Notes:

• Only qualified individuals should perform power and signal routing to the display and termination at the display.
• Daktronics engineering staff must approve all proposed changes, or the warranty will be void.
• Improper installation could result in serious damage to the equipment and could be hazardous to personnel.
• Size conductors of circuits delivering power to a Daktronics display according to local and national electrical codes so that the power distribution systems can deliver followed power to the display while maintaining a voltage within 5% of the utility nominal voltage.

Power Requirements
Do not connect displays to any voltage other than that listed on the display product label. Fuelight™ displays have a voltage input of 100-240 VAC and a frequency input of 50/60 Hz.

• The dedicated circuit can be shared among all components of the sign structure (including Fuelight™ displays and fluorescent lighting), but not with other external electrical devices (such as air compressors or island lighting).
• A dedicated circuit is defined as one hot, one neutral, and one ground wire.
• Maximum amperage varies with the number and type of digit displays connected.
  Note: It is critical that the display circuit be fused at 15 A and that all conductors used must be designed to pass a 15 A current in normal operation. Failure to meet wiring and over-current protection device requirements may violate local and national electrical codes and will void the display warranty.

Main Disconnect
Daktronics requires installation of a power disconnect switch with the display so all ungrounded conductors can be disconnected near the point of power connection.
Locate the disconnecting means either in a direct line of sight from the display or so it can be locked in the open position. This ensures that power is not reconnected while service personnel work on the display.

Access Internal Components
The door of Fuelight™ Petroleum Price displays is secured by two slotted fasteners.

1. Release the slotted latches by gently turning them counter-clockwise with a flat-head screwdriver.

2. Open the left door using the knob attached to the display face.

3. Open the right door by gently pushing it outward from inside of the display.
   Note: Smaller displays may only have one door.

4. The driver and power supply(s) are attached inside the cabinet to the display’s backset and their locations vary between display sizes. Refer to Figure 6 for approximate component locations.

Grounding
FL-3000 and FL-4500 series displays do not require a local earth ground electrode.
The displays are designed so the most sensitive components are isolated and a local earth ground electrode is not required and is no longer recommended.
The displays still require a safety ground from the electrical service panel for the primary power wires to comply with national electric codes.
Please note that local earth ground electrode requirements for other Daktronics products remain unchanged.

Power Installation
Install Daktronics Fuelight™ displays using a two wire plus ground circuit. Connect the ground from the circuit to the grounding stud within each display. Refer to Figure 7.
Do not connect neutral to ground at the disconnect or at the display as this violates electrical codes and voids the warranty. Use a disconnect so that all ungrounded conductors can be disconnected.

To connect power to the display, follow these steps:

1. Route the power cable into the display through one of the knockouts on the display’s backset. Refer to Figure 7.
2. Use wire nuts or other appropriate hardware to connect power wires – hot (black) and neutral (white) – to the power supply harness or pigtail. Refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8.
3. Connect power supply ground wire to the grounding stud. Refer to Figure 8.
   Note: Verify the power supply ground wire is connected to the grounding stud.

Following successful boot up, the client radios show signal strength.
Note: Signal strength will not show until the server radio is setup with client ID and sequence.

Server Radio Set Up
To configure the server radio through a web interface, attach an Ethernet cable from the radio to a computer and follow these steps:

1. Configure the computer’s IP address for the same subnet as the radio’s IP. Open a web browser and navigate to the radio’s IP address (example: http://192.168.0.30).

2. Enter the radio password to gain access to the advanced diagnostics and configuration. The default password is password.

3.  Enter radio ID numbers.

4. Enter the Network Number.

5. Set TX Power to 27dBm.
   Warning: Applying power to the radio without an attached antenna may cause damage!

6. Click Apply.

Note: If communication issues arise, record the Radio RSSI, Radio Total Packets, Radio Failed Packets, and Radio Passed Packets after more than 10 manual price updates.

Quality of Service
The percentage of data received by each client radio is shown in the Quality of Service area.

1. Verify that the quality of service of each client radio goes to 100.
2. If it does not, check the installation and configuration of the client radio.

Following Configuration

After the system is configured, the server radio searches for client radios. Refer to Figure 56.
Figure 57 shows what the server radio displays once one or more client radios are detected and connected.

• The bars show the signal strength received from the client radios. When more than one client radio is connected, this is an average value.
• The number shown below the signal strength bars is a Quality of Service percentage (the percent of data successfully exchanged between server and client radios). When more than one client radio is connected, this is an average value.
• The number of client radios to which the server radio is connected is shown on the right.

RSSI Values

ground, obstacles, etc.

Verify Connections

1. Verify that the number of connected clients shown on the LCD is correct.
2. Verify the Quality of service eventually goes to 100 (this may take a minute or two) and stays there.
3. If either of the above verifications fail, check the installation and configuration.
   • The Quality of Service section of the server configuration page can be used to determine which client is having trouble.
   • The RSSI value can be used to determine if the problem is with radio signal strength. This is an average value of strength from all clients. Enable 1 client at a time to get an RSSI reading for an individual client.

Auto Reset Feature

• Radios with firmware version 2187 and higher have an auto reset feature.
• The server radio resets every 30 seconds if it does not find any client radios with which to connect.
• A client radio resets every 30 seconds if it does not find a server radio with which to connect.
• The auto reset feature is disabled when there is a connection on the Ethernet port (when connected with a computer).
• On initial setup, it may take a few reset cycles for all the radios to find each other, and the Quality of Service number may take a few minutes to reach 100 percent.

Handheld Controller Insert and Code
The handheld controller uses a keypad insert to program price information for Daktronics LED Fuelight™ Displays.

4. Verify all equipment is turned off.

5. Power up all pylons while DM-100 remains off.
   Note: To ensure proper addressing, the pylon with communications tied to it (Host) should be powered up last. The additional pylons (Clients) are to be powered up first and in any order.

6. Allow ~30 seconds for the pylons to boot up.

7. Power up the DM-100 handheld controller.
   Note: Do not press any buttons on the DM-100 while displays and controller boot up.

8. Allow time for DM-100 to boot up and initialize all pylons:
   • ~1 minute for each wirelessly connected pylon
   • ~1 minute total for a direct-wired pylon system

9. On the DM-100, press the Menu key, enter the Diagnostics Menu, and select Detect
   Displays to verify all networks and displays are detected.

10. Verify all displays and lines are detected.

11. Manually send the current prices to the display(s) from the DM-100.

12. Verify that the DM-100 states “Sequence Sent” then “Display Response”.

Use the following as a guide for some Point of Sales Systems (e.g. Radiant):

1. Verify the ICON on the PoS register does not say, “Price sign is off-line”; if it does, connect the PoS to the DM-100.
2. Manually send the current prices to the display(s) from the DM-100 (override the PoS).
3. Press the Update Display button on the DM-100.
4. Verify DM-100 states “Sending Sequence” then “Display Response”.
5. Re-send current prices from PoS system.
6. Verify price change with PoS.
7. The price on the display should change within one minute.
   Note: Some states only allow one price change per day. The procedure above allows system verification without actually changing the display’s price. If allowed, test the entire system by sending a penny increase to one of the displays and verify the change. Return to the correct price after testing.
   Important Note: To retain price updates, you must wait three minutes before powering down the gas price displays. Any changes made to the displays require a threeminute power on time to commit to memory.

Replacement Parts

Important Notes:

• Disconnect power before any repair or maintenance is done on the display.
• Only qualified service personnel should make any access to internal display electronics.
• Disconnect power when the display is not in use.
• The electrician installing the displays must provide some parts required for installation such as screws, wire nuts, electrical tape, etc. Daktronics does not provide these items.

Most display components have a white label that lists the part number in bold as shown in Figure 67. Part numbers may also appear on illustrations and reference drawings as well as in the Bill of Materials (BOM) for the project. If a replacement part cannot be identified, contact Daktronics Customer Service.
Refer to Section 11: Daktronics Exchange and Repair & Return Programs (p. 47) if replacing or repairing any display component.

Digit Segment Layout

When ordering replacement segments for 24″ and 30″ digits, refer to Figure 68. Horizontal segments A and D are the same part; vertical segments B, C, E, and F are the same part; and the center segment G is a unique part.

Daktronics Exchange and Repair & Return Programs

Exchange Program
The Daktronics Exchange Program is a service for quickly replacing key components in need of repair. If a component fails, Daktronics sends a replacement part to the customer who, in turn, returns the failed component to Daktronics. This decreases equipment downtime. Customers who follow the program guidelines explained below will receive this service.
Before contacting Daktronics, identify these important numbers:
Display Serial Number:
Display Model Number:
Date Installed: ___
Location of Display: ____
Daktronics Customer ID Number: __

To participate in the Exchange Program, follow these steps:

1. Call Daktronics Customer Service.
   United States & Canada: 1-800-DAK-TRON (325-8766)
   Outside the U.S. & Canada: +1-605-275-1040

2. When the new exchange part is received, mail the old part to Daktronics.
   If the replacement part fixes the problem, send in the problem part being replaced.
   a. Package the old part in the same shipping materials in which the replacement part arrived.
   b. Fill out and attach the enclosed UPS shipping document.
   c. Ship the part to Daktronics.

3. A charge will be made for the replacement part immediately, unless a qualifying service agreement is in place. In most circumstances, the replacement part will be invoiced at the time it is shipped.

If the failed part or replacement part is not returned to Daktronics within three weeks of the ship date, Daktronics will assume that the customer is purchasing the replacement part and will send an invoice for the value of the new sale part. If the part or parts are returned within two weeks of the second invoice date, Daktronics will credit the customer for the second invoice.
If after two weeks Daktronics has still not received the parts back, the customer must pay the second invoice and will not be credited for the return of the failed part. Daktronics reserves the right to refuse parts that have been damaged due to acts of nature or causes other than normal wear and tear.

Repair & Return Program

For items not subject to exchange, Daktronics offers a Repair & Return Program. To send a part for repair, follow these steps:

1. Call Daktronics Customer Service.
   United States & Canada: 1-800-DAK-TRON (325-8766)
   Outside the U.S. & Canada: +1-605-275-1040

2. Receive a Return Materials Authorization (RMA) number before shipping.
   This expedites repair of the part.

3. Package and pad the item carefully to prevent damage during shipment.
   Electronic components, such as printed circuit boards, should be placed in an antistatic bag before boxing. Daktronics does not recommend using packing peanuts when shipping.

4. Enclose:
   • Name
   • Address
   • Phone number
   • RMA number
   • A clear description of symptoms

Daktronics Warranty and Limitation of Liability

DAKTRONICS WARRANTY & LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

This Warranty and Limitation of Liability (the “Warranty”) sets forth the warranty provided by Daktronics with respect to the Equipment. By accepting delivery of the Equipment, Purchaser and End User agree to be bound by and accept these terms and conditions. Unless otherwise defined herein, all terms within the Warranty shall have the same meaning and definition as provided elsewhere in the Agreement.

DAKTRONICS WILL ONLY BE OBLIGATED TO HONOR THE WARRANTY SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS UPON RECEIPT OF FULL
PAYMENT FOR THE EQUIPMENT

1. Warranty Coverage.
   A. Daktronics warrants to the original end user (the “End User”, which may also be the Purchaser) that the Equipment will be free from Defects (as defined below) in materials and workmanship for a period of one (1) year (the “Warranty Period”). The Warranty Period shall commence on the earlier of: (i) four weeks from the date that the Equipment leaves Daktronics’ facility; or (ii) Substantial Completion as defined herein.

   B. Daktronics’ obligation under this Warranty is limited to, at Daktronics’ option, replacing or repairing, any Equipment or part thereof that is found by Daktronics not to conform to the Equipment’s specifications. Unless otherwise directed by Daktronics, any defective part or component shall be returned to Daktronics for repair or replacement. This Warranty does not include onsite labor charges to remove or install these components. Daktronics may, at its option, provide on-site warranty service. Daktronics shall have a reasonable period of time to make such replacements or repairs and all labor associated therewith shall be performed during regular working hours. Regular working hours are Monday through Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. at the location where labor is performed, excluding any holidays observed by Daktronics.
   C. Daktronics shall pay ground transportation charges for the return of any defective component of the Equipment.

   D. Any replacement parts or Equipment will be new or serviceably used, comparable in function and performance to the original part or Equipment and warranted for the remainder of the Warranty Period. Purchasing additional parts or Equipment from the Seller does not extend the Warranty Period.
   E. Defects shall be defined as follows. With regard to the Equipment (excepting LEDs), a “Defect” shall refer to a material variance from the design specifications that prohibit the Equipment from operating for its intended use. With respect to LEDs, “Defects” are defined as LED pixels that cease to emit light. Unless otherwise expressly provided, this Warranty does not impose any duty or liability upon Daktronics for partial LED pixel degradation.

The foregoing limitation of liability shall apply whether any claim is based upon principles of contract, tort or statutory duty, principles of indemnity or contribution, or otherwise
   C. In no event shall Daktronics be liable for loss, damage, or injury of any kind or nature arising out of or in connection with this Warranty in excess of the Purchase Price of the Equipment. The End User’s remedy in any dispute under this Warranty shall be ultimately limited to the Purchase Price of the Equipment to the extent the Purchase Price has been paid.

4. Assignment of Rights
   A. The Warranty contained herein extends only to the End User (which may be the Purchaser) of the Equipment and no attempt to extend the Warranty to any subsequent user-transferee of the Equipment shall be valid or enforceable without the express written consent of Daktronics.

5. Governing Law; Election of Remedies
   A. The rights and obligations of the parties under this Warranty shall not be governed by the provisions of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sales of Goods of 1980. The parties consent to the application of the laws of the State of South Dakota to govern, interpret, and enforce each of the parties’ rights, duties, and obligations arising from, or relating in any manner to, the subject matter of this Warranty, without regard to conflict of law principles.
   B. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising from or related to this Warranty, the parties shall first attempt to settle through negotiations. In the event that no resolution is reached, then such dispute, controversy, or claim shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce. The language of the arbitration shall be English. The place of the arbitration shall be Sioux Falls, SD. A single arbitrator selected by the parties shall preside over the proceeding. If a single arbitrator cannot be agreed upon by the parties, each party shall select an arbitrator, and those arbitrators shall confer and agree on the appointed arbitrator to adjudicate the arbitration. The arbitrator shall have the power to grant any provisional or final remedy or relief that it deems appropriate, including conservatory measures and an award of attorneys’ fees. The arbitrator shall make its decisions in accordance with applicable law. By agreeing to arbitration, the Parties do not intend to deprive any court of its jurisdiction to issue a pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment, or other order in aid of arbitration proceedings and the enforcement of any award. Without prejudice to such provisional remedies as may be available under the jurisdiction of a court, the arbitrator shall have full authority to grant provisional remedies and to direct the Parties to request that any court modify or vacate any temporary or preliminary relief issued by such court, and to award damages for the failure of any Party to respect the arbitrator’s orders to that effect.

   A. For End User’s protection, in addition to that afforded by the warranties set forth herein, End User may purchase extended warranty services to cover the Equipment. The Extended Service Agreement, available from Daktronics, provides for electronic parts repair and/or on-site labor for an extended period from the date of expiration of this warranty. Alternatively, an Extended Service Agreement may be purchased in conjunction with this Warranty for extended additional services.

   Additional Terms applicable to sales outside of the United States
   The following additional terms apply only where the installation site of the Equipment is located outside of the United States of America.
   1. In the event that the installation site of the Equipment is in a country other than the U.S.A., then, notwithstanding Section 5 of the Warranty, where the selling entity is the entity listed in Column 1, then the governing law of this Warranty is the law of the jurisdiction listed in the corresponding row in Column 2 without regard to its conflict of law principles.
