Module installation requirements

Cabinet installation

The upper direction of the module is the same as the upper direction of

the cabinet. The mounting threaded holes on the back of the module are

aligned with the corresponding mounting holes of the cabinet. Use M4

6
screws to fix the module on the box from the inside of the cabinet. The

modules should be arranged neatly and the surface of the modules should be

flat.

After the box is installed, install the cabinet on the steel frame to

assemble the display screen, as shown in the figure below.

室内 P4 模组

Fixed module screws

Use M4 screws to fix the module, and the length of the screws after

passing through the box is ≤5mm. Using GB9074.4 screws (as shown in the

figure below, spring washers, washers and screws cannot be separated) can

reliably fix the module. The box structure restricts the parts where GB9074.4

screws cannot be used, but GB818 screws can be used (see the figure below).

Please refer to the corresponding national standard for screw selection and

naming method.

 M4 GB818 Pan head screws M4 GB9074.4 with locking screw

Module installation clearance

When the module is in use, the LED heats up, and the mask absorbs

heat and expands slightly. When installing the box, care should be taken to

reserve a splicing gap between the modules. The module installation gap is

generally 0.2mm ~ 0.3mm. Pay attention to the opening of the box when

processing and installing the module, and the spacing of the opening is

reserved for the gap between the modules.

To adjust the gap between modules, a metal sheet with a thickness of

0.2 to 0.3 mm can be used to sandwich the adjacent modules when

assembling the box, and then the metal sheet is pulled out after the modules

are fixed with screws.

Magnetic column installation

Magnetic column requirements

The M4 magnetic column is commonly used in

the LED display, the diameter of the magnetic column

chassis is 13±0.05mm, the height of the magnetic

column is 13±0.05mm; the diameter of the magnetic core is 10±0.05mm,

8
and the thickness of the magnetic core is 1.2±0.05mm.

Module magnetic installation

Design and manufacture the steel frame according to the size of the

display screen and the size of the module, generally using 40mm×40mm

square steel. After the steel frame is installed on site, install the receiving

card, power supply and wires on the steel frame. Install the magnetic column

on the module, connect the power cable and the cable of the module, and

magnetically attract the module to the steel frame as shown in the figure

below.

Module signal line connection

There are two main ways to install signal cables: horizontal cascade and

split connection. Horizontal cascading is that horizontal modules are

connected by cables, and the rightmost module (the opposite module) is

connected to the receiving card with a long cable.

The split connection is a way to make full use of the receiving card. As

shown in the figure below, each row of modules is connected to the receiving
9
card with a long cable. When there are many modules, the modules can

continue to be expanded by horizontal cascading. Compared with the

horizontal cascading method, the folio method can provide a higher refresh

rate and a better display effect. When conditions permit, it should be

connected in a split manner.

 Front view Side view

(1) This installation method is generally used for indoor wall

advertisements, etc.

(2) When the screen area is small, generally no maintenance channel

space is left, and the entire screen is removed for maintenance, or a foldable

integrated frame is formed.

(3) When the screen area is large, the front maintenance method is

generally adopted.

Frame magnetic strip screen installation

(1) Design the frame according to the installation area and the size of

the module (considering the edging and splicing gap), the magnetic back strip

is welded on the frame with 4cm wide square steel evenly arranged

12
according to the size of the module, and finally the frame is fixed on the wall.

(2) M4 magnetic column is commonly used for LED display. The diameter

of the magnetic column chassis is 13±0.05mm, the height of the magnetic

column is 13±0.05mm; the diameter of the magnetic core is 10±0.05mm,

and the thickness of the magnetic core is 1.2±0.05mm.

(3) Larger display screens should be spliced with cabinets.

Inlay installation

(1) The entire display body is embedded in the wall, and the display

screen and the wall are in the same vertical plane perpendicular to the

horizontal plane.

(2) The larger display screen should be spliced by the box body, and the

smaller display screen can use the steel frame to install the module to save

cost.

(3) The wall can be a solid wall with recessed space, or a decorative wall

installed after the display screen is installed. For the solid wall, special

attention should be paid to the design of the display screen heat dissipation

air duct and waterproof and drainage.

13
 Display installation precautions

Waterproof and moistureproof

Before installing the display screen, you must check whether there is a

hidden danger of dripping water or serious moisture in the installation site of

the display screen. If the display screen is wet or severely damp, it may cause

a short circuit or even cause a failure and cause a fire.

It is required that the joint between the screen and the building must be

strictly waterproof and leak-proof, and the screen must have good drainage

measures.

Ventilation and cooling

When the display screen is working, it will generate a certain amount of

heat. If the ambient temperature is too high and the heat dissipation is poor,

the integrated circuit may not work properly, or even be burned, so that the

display system cannot work normally.

It is required to install ventilation equipment to cool down, so that the

internal temperature of the screen is between -20 ℃ ~ 50 ℃ . A

temperature-controlled fan is installed on the back of the screen to dissipate

heat.

For installation methods that are difficult to repair and maintain, it is

recommended to install remote monitoring and protection facilities.

14
Software Installation

The display control and program production software, along with the

software instruction manual, can be downloaded from the official website of

the control system. Install and use the software according to the software

instruction manual. If you have any questions about the use of the software,

please consult our company's after-sales service or the control system

manufacturer's after-sales service.

The receiving card program used by the control system can be

downloaded from the official website of Hi-Tech Optoelectronics. Different

module column driver ICs may require different versions of control and

program production software, and may also need to upgrade the firmware of

the receiving card to a specified version. Incorrect versions of control and

program production software and receiving card firmware will result in

abnormal display, or performance cannot be debugged to an ideal state. For

specific requirements, please refer to the tips on the official website of Gaoke

Optoelectronics or consult the after-sales service telephone of Gaoke

Optoelectronics.

Safety requirements

Safety Requirements for Using Mods

Installation electrostatic protection requirements

Strict attention should be paid to electrostatic protection during the use

15
of the LED module. Personnel who come into contact with the module must

wear a grounded electrostatic wristband or electrostatic gloves.

Installation grounding requirements

To prevent damage to chips or LEDs from lightning strikes or surges.

During the module assembly process, various power tools must be well

grounded, and the switching power supply shell and screen in the box must

be properly grounded (must be separated from the strong electric ground).

Module Cleaning Requirements

Cleaning the module requires using a clean soft rag moistened with

alcohol to gently wipe the surface of the module. Do not use chemical liquids

with unknown functions to wipe, so as not to damage or corrode the plastic

parts of the module, the LED casing or the LED lamp surface colloid. After

cleaning, wait until the surface of the module is completely dry before

powering on the display.

Maintenance requirements

When repairing the LED module, use a constant temperature electric

soldering iron and air gun and ground it well. Soldering iron tips generally use

knife-shaped soldering iron tips and conical soldering iron tips.

When soldering the drive surface components of the LED module, the

temperature of the electric soldering iron is generally 290-320°C, the

welding time cannot exceed 3s, and the number of soldering times is not

16
more than three times. The gun is slightly swayed clockwise against the lamp

bead. After the solder is completely melted, the maintenance operation is

carried out, and the number of welding is not more than three times.

Knife soldering iron tip Conical Soldering Iron Tip

Anti-collision requirements

During the installation and transportation of the module, do not drop,

push, squeeze, or press the package to prevent the module from falling and

bumping, so as to avoid problems such as kit breakage, lamp beads falling off,

lamp bead damage, pad falling off, and components falling off.

Safety Requirements for Display Use

Ambient temperature requirements

In order to ensure the stable operation of the display screen and achieve

the designed service life, the surface temperature of the module during

operation is required to be ≤85°C, and the air temperature inside the

display body is ≤50°C. According to the actual working environment of the

display screen, take necessary cooling measures, such as adding exhaust fans

and exhaust fans to form cooling air ducts or installing air conditioners for

cooling.

Display content requirements

17
 In order to avoid serious attenuation of local LED lamp bead brightness

or dead light, so that the display screen can reach the designed service life, it

is not allowed to display still pictures or still texts for a long time, and it is

necessary to play scrolling pictures or texts.

Power Connection Requirements

A dedicated switching power supply for LED display must be used. The

total current of multiple modules connected to a single switching power

supply cannot exceed 80% of the rated maximum output current of the

power supply. The wires connecting the module and the power supply need

to use high-quality copper wires, and ensure that the voltage U range at the

module power socket is U±0.2V.

When connecting the power supply, it must be noted that the module

power socket corresponds to the positive and negative poles of the output

terminal of the switching power supply. If the positive and negative poles are

reversed, the module will be burned, or even a fire will occur.

The module must not be connected to AC 220V, which will cause the

module to burn immediately.

When wiring the power supply, it is necessary to ensure that the module

plug and socket are connected reliably, and the terminal screws of the power

socket of the switching power supply are tightened. Loose plugs, sockets and

screws can lead to increased contact resistance causing wire burn or product

18
damage.

Screen acceptance requirements and methods

Display brightness acceptance

Adjust the display to full brightness, and use the brightness meter to

measure the brightness of the display within 5 minutes. When measuring

brightness, the optical axis of the luminance meter is required to be

perpendicular to the screen body. Adjust the distance between the

luminance meter and the display screen, make sure that the black dots or

circles in the eyepiece of the luminance meter cover more than 16 pixels,

adjust the focal length so that the LED lamp beads can be clearly seen in the

eyepiece, and then measure and read the luminance data.

Visual angle acceptance

As shown in the figure below, when viewing at 70° left and right of the

screen and 60° from the lower viewing angle of the display, it is required

that the screen has no obvious black spots and no obvious dark blocks.

19
 Ground check

The shell, cabinet and display frame of the switching power supply must

be well grounded, and the grounding resistance is required to be less than or

equal to 10 ohms. Check the grounding resistance every six months.

Lightning protection facility inspection

The LED display screen is required to be reliably grounded, the power

distribution box is required to be equipped with a surge protector, and the

lightning protection facilities are checked every six months. Avoid using the

display during thunderstorms.

Anti-burn-in operation requirements

Standard operation

When the entire screen is powered off, connect the signal cable and

power cable, check that the connection is good, and then power on the

entire screen. If the display is found to be bad, immediately power off the

entire screen, rectify the wiring, and then power on the entire screen for

inspection.

Live installation operation

When live installation is required, it must be operated in the following

order: first connect the signal input cable, then connect the signal output

cable, and finally connect the module power plug. The modules must be

installed and debugged one by one, and it is not allowed to continuously

20
install multiple modules with abnormal display and then debug.

The display is abnormal when the whole screen is used

If the user finds that the display is abnormal during use, especially if the

whole line is highlighted, the whole screen should be repaired immediately

after the power is turned off, so as to avoid power supply for a long time in

this situation.
