How to check the status of the transmitting card?There are two lights on the transmitting card as shown as below.

If everything is right, the Red one will be off and the Green one will be blinking. Otherwisethe user needs to check graphics card setting, DVI cable and transmitting card.

How to check the status of the receiving card?There are three lights on the receiving card as shown below

If everything is right, the Red one is blinking, and the Green one is on (no blinking).Otherwise the user needs to check receiving card, the programmer, and the Cat-5 cableconnect into this scan board.

How to check the input and output problem of board?Usually there are one input and one output on board. If a board is broken, we can get datafrom another board to check the input of this board is good or not. Also, we can get data fromlast board to another board to check the output of last board is good or not.

7.2 Electrical requirements

Power systemPower voltage must be in the range of the specification value.It is recommended to use a power distribution system (a power distribution system with aseparate neutral and grounding conductor in order to avoid large ground current loopsdue to voltage differences in the neutral conductor.The total electrical installation should be protected by an appropriately rated disconnectswitch, circuit breakers.The electrical installation must only be performed by a qualified electrician. Electricalconnections must comply with all applicable national and local codes.

Cabling & ConnectionAll internal cabling must be properly connected and seated.All power wiring must be from circuit breaker protected lines. Do not connect to anunprotect circuit.Do not route power and communication wires in the same conduit. Separate conduitsmust be run for communication wires and power wires. However, fiber optic wire may berun in the same conduit with power wires.

GroundingThe LED display screen must be properly grounded according the applicable national andlocal codes.Properly grounding every display cabinet is necessary as it is essential to prevent shock,shock hazards, and fire hazards.

Lighting Strike ProtectionA LED display screen cabinet bonder to an earth ground aims to dissipate the highvoltage and current from a lighting strike. The resistance of the grounding electrode mustbe as low as possible. However, damage can still occur to a LED display screen cabinet`selectronic equipment from lighting voltage transients.Though some surge protection is incorporated into a LED display screen in order to

protect the display from high voltage lighting transients, surge protectors need to be

installed.

39

Lighting Strike Protection of Electric Closet

Every electric closet of LED display screen must be installed with lightning protection deviceequipment. The requirement specification should be same as shown below. Nominaldischarge current In (8/20µs) :20 kAThe maximum discharge current Imax (8/20µs):40 kAVoltage protection level:Up in ln AC385-505V:≤1.7kVTA ˂25ns

Lighting Strike Protection of Cabinet

Every cabinet which connect power input cable from electric closet have installed the surge

protector. So when you install the LED display screen cabinet, must finish it according to the

LED display cabinets arrangement drawing.

40

Power distribution boxSince the LED screen product is an industrial-class product and has a relatively largepower, it uses a high-power switch power supply. So, the start-up impact current at startup is relatively large. And then, the air switch which is used in the power distribution boxneeds to use a D-type switch. Prevent the screen from jumping when starting

Cooling SystemIf the customer want that the LED screen working normally for a long time. He should payattention for the cooling system for control the temperature inside the steel structure, atleast less than 45 degrees Celsius.A. If the LED display dimension is less than 20 square meter, not need to install aircondition, 2 air flow is enough.B. If the LED display dimension is more than 20 square meter, and the LED display screenis installed on the wall with 1 meter distance, must to install enough air condition or air flowas the cooling system.If use air flow , it should be installed on two sides of the LED screen. At least per 3-4Mheight should install 2 air flow on two sides of LED screen, the air flow should use suctiontype one. it means the air flow should take out the air from structure and cabinet. And if theLED display screen is more wide than 10M, should install more air flow inside steelstructure to make sure all the area air can be took out . Usually per 5M need to add a airflow.When the air flow is installed , the protection net should be also installed for protectservice person and equipment.Also there should be air inlet on the bottom of the steelstructure.If choose air condition, should install it inside the steel structure and make sure there isenough space for installation of air condition. Generally, air condition type is 1.5P, 2P or 3P.Per 9-12 square meter will use 1P air condition, depend on local temperature.

C. If the LED display use a pole steel structure to hold it, the best cooling system is air flow.Install the air flow on the upper area of the LED display screen, and put the air inlet on thebottom of the steel structure, there will be a complete air convection inside the steelstructure, will get the best ventilation effect.

10.1 Cleaning

For outdoor LED display screenDue to outdoor use the LED display screen are exposed to all kinds of weatherconditions.Sand, dust, smog and other dirty things on the LED display and because of that the

performance of the LED display may be effected, So regular cleaning on LED display is

recommended.

LED`s and shades covered with dirt Clean LED`s and shadesClean all the cabinets of the LED display screen to avoid brightness differences betweencleaned and unclean cabinets.

Necessary toolsVaporizer with cleaning detergentSoft hand brush with long hair (recommended 4 cm pork hair)Garden hose with a spray nozzleAir compressor

Cleaning steps1. Seal up the data and power sockets using a power and data linking cable. Make sure

that all plug holder clamps are locked firmly.2. Put the detergent on the shades and LED`s part by part of the LED display screen.

Do not use industrial grease removers. Use only materials or chemicals that are inert,non-corrosive and non-marking.

3. Brush down all the dirt of the LED`s and the shades using a soft hand brush. Do not use ahard bristled brush.

4. Wash away the remaining soap with plenty of fresh water.5. Repeat from step two until the part is clean.6. Dry the surface with air compressor.7. Clean the LED display screen from top to bottom.

105

10.2 Calibration

Factory calibrationIn order to achieve color uniformity among all cabinets of the same display the cabinets

can be color calibrated to improve display effect of the LED display screen. The manufacturercan do calibration before goods are delivered out of factory.

Site calibrationWhen the LED display screen is running for a long time, for example for one year, some

part of the display screen may play a different image from other parts. Chromatic aberration

will appear on the LED display screen. Then a site color calibration is needed to achieve color

uniformity among all cabinets of the LED display screen, please contact Sales & Service for

further details.
