Appendix C — Connecting the sign to a computer
Though messages can be programmed into the sign using the hand-
held Remote Control, a more convenient method is to connect the sign to
a computer and use special software to send messages.
NOTE: Contact Adaptive Micro Systems to order the software
necessary to send messages to a sign from your PC.
NOTE: These signs cannot be networked together. That is, you can
connect a single sign to a computer, but not multiple signs.
