Power
Onlyqualiedindividualsshouldcompletetheelectricalinstallation;untrainedpersonnel
should not attempt to install these displays or any of the electrical components� Improper
installation can seriously damage the equipment and be hazardous to personnel�
Most displays feature a 120 VAC power cord with a three-prong plug. Install a grounded
receptacle nearby so that the power cord can easily reach it. The control console
requires a 120/240 VAC receptacle and uses less than 1 A of power.
Note: Several shot clock models do not include a power cord. Also, certain scoring
modules require connections to other scoreboards for power and signal. Refer
to Shot Clock Power/Signal Connection (p�13) and Statistics Display & Hockey
Module Signal Connection (p�12) for more information.
Displays operating on 240 VAC are also available (excluding ColorSmart models), and
they ship equipped with a universal power plug.
Grounding

equipment, and connected peripheral equipment – must be electrically grounded.
Only qualied individuals may perform electrical work, including verication of ground
resistance. Daktronics is not responsible for improper grounding or damage incurred as a
result of improper grounding.
Grounding methods must meet the provisions of all applicable local and national codes.
Inspect and verify all grounding methods meet the provisions of all applicable local and
national codes.
Proper grounding is necessary for reliable equipment operation and general electrical
safety. Failure to properly ground the display system may void the warranty, disrupt
operation, damage equipment, and cause bodily harm or death.
