Before Beginning
Consult the regulations and guidelines for your state regarding acceptable shot clock mounting location(s).
Locate and unpack all boxes that contain shot clocks and related equipment, including start/stop switches and
optional radio receivers.
For more information regarding safety, installation, or operation, refer to the Tuff Sport & Colorsmart Indoor
LED Scoreboards Installation Manual (DD2481645), shipped with the shot clocks and available online at
www.daktronics.com/manuals.
Note: Due to the variety of wall materials and backstop manufacturers used in basketball facilities, Daktronics
cannot anticipate a user’s individual installation needs or provide mounting hardware suitable for every
installation. Choose a method of installation that will safely support the weight of the display. Daktronics is
not responsible for the integrity or suitability of mounting systems manufactured and installed by others.

rear side anges to mark where to drill.
3. Move shot clock out of the way, and drill holes for wall anchors.
4. Secure the shot clock to the wall by attaching mounting hardware
through all holes on the rear side anges of the cabinet to a pre-drilled
hole in the wall. Refer to Figure 1. Ask for assistance as needed to
support the shot clock while mounting.
Tools Required
• Drill/Hammer Drill
• Tape Measure
• Level
• Marker
• Phillips & Flathead screwdrivers

Backstop Mounting - One Pole
1. Measure the diameter of the backstop support pole to determine the
correct size U-bolts needed to secure steel angles to the pole.
2. Use the guidelines below to determine the correct length of steel angles
required to mount the shot clock to the pole. Lengths are based on the
width of the shot clock.
Shot Clock Model Steel Angle Length
BB-2114 33" minimum
BB-2115 40" minimum
3. Place the steel angles level on the rear of the shot clock, and use the
3/8" mounting holes in the side anges of the cabinet as a guide to mark
where to drill on the steel angles.
4. Use the U-bolts as a guide to mark holes on the opposite ends of the
steel angles.
5. Drill all holes in the steel angles for the shot clock mounting hardware and U-bolts.
6. Use the U-bolts and appropriate hardware to loosely secure the steel angles to the support pole.
7. Lift the shot clock up above the backstop and use 3/8" hardware to secure the shot clock to the steel angles.
Refer to Figure 2. Ask for assistance as needed to support the shot clock while mounting.
8. Make nal adjustments to the shot clock position, and then tighten down all U-bolt hardware.
Backstop Mounting - Two Poles
1. Measure the diameter of the backstop support poles to
determine the correct size U-bolts needed to secure steel angles
to the poles.
2. Measure the outside distance between the two poles, and add
a minimum of 4" to determine the correct length of steel angles
required to mount the shot clock between the poles.
3. Place the steel angles level and centered on the rear of the shot
clock, and use the 3/8" mounting holes in the side anges of the
cabinet as a guide to mark where to drill on the steel angles.
4. Use the U-bolts as a guide to mark holes on both outside edges
of the steel angles.
5. Drill all holes in the steel angles for the shot clock mounting
hardware and U-bolts.
6. Use the U-bolts and appropriate hardware to loosely secure the steel angles to the support poles.
7. Lift the shot clock up above the backstop and use 3/8" hardware to secure the shot clock to the steel angles.
Refer to Figure 3. Ask for assistance as needed to support the shot clock while mounting.
8. Make nal adjustments to the shot clock position, and then tighten down all U-bolt hardware.

Power
Only qualied individuals should complete the electrical installation; untrained personnel 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.
Shot clocks feature an 11' long 120 VAC power cord with a three-prong plug. Install a grounded receptacle
nearby so that the power cord can easily reach it. If the provided power cord does not reach a grounded
receptacle, it must be re-terminated with a longer cord.
Wired Signal
Wired signal installation requires routing control
cable from the control console to a signal junction
box (J-box) near the display. Refer to Figure 4 for
typical signal layout. At a minimum, use a paired,
22 AWG shielded cable (Daktronics part # W-1077).
1. Connect the cable to a dual 1/4" J-box at the
control console end.
2. Route the cable in conduit from the J-box on
the control console end to a J-box near the shot
clock.
3. Install the 1/4" phone plug (part # 0L-40683)
to the shot clock end of the cable. Be sure to
connect the cable shielding only in the J-box
on this end. DO NOT connect cable shielding at
the J-box near the control console.
4. Insert the plug into the J31 – SIGNAL IN jack
located on the side of the shot clock.
5. Connect a signal cable from the J-box on the
control console end to the J1, J2, or J3 jack on
the rear of the All Sport 5000 console.
6. Connect the Shot Clock Start/Stop Switch (0A-
1196-0031) to the J7 jack on the rear of the All
Sport 5000 console.
Wireless Radio
A wireless radio system requires a radio receiver
mounted inside the shot clock. For more information,
refer to the Gen VI Radio Installation Manual
(DD2362277), provided with the receiver and
available online at www.daktronics.com/manuals.
Radio Settings
By default, radio receivers are set to Broadcast 1
("b1") and Channel 01 ("C1"). This may or may not
match the settings used by existing scoreboards in
the facility. Power ON the All Sport 5000 console to
check the radio settings as shown at right.

If the shot clock radio receiver settings DO NOT need to be changed, skip ahead to Receiver Mounting.
If the shot clock radio receiver Broadcast/Channel settings DO need to be changed:
1. Disconnect power to the shot clock and use a Phillips
screwdriver open the front face panel.
2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the four screws
securing the radio receiver cover.
3. Use a small athead screwdriver to change the BCAST
and CHAN switches accordingly. Refer to Figure 6.
Note: Do NOT change the FUNC switch; this must
always be set to "1".
4. Replace the radio receiver cover.
5. Proceed to Step 2 of Receiver Mounting.
Receiver Mounting
1. Disconnect power to the shot clock and use a Phillips screwdriver to open the front face panel.
2. Use the double-sided adhesive tape to secure the radio receiver inside the bottom of the shot clock cabinet.
Refer to Figure 7. Mount the radio receiver toward the side of the court where the controller is located.
3. Connect the 6-pin cable from the radio receiver to the mating 6-pin J21 jack on the LED driver.
Note: The BB-2114 shot clock will include a 5-pin to 6-pin adapter connected to the 5-pin J45 jack on a wiring
harness coming from the LED driver. Connect the 6-pin cable from the radio receiver to this adapter.

4. Mount the antenna as described below and illustrated in Figure 8:
a. Route the antenna cable through the D hole on the lower side
of the shot clock cabinet. Again, the antenna should be on
the side that faces the control location for best reception.
b. On the outside of the shot clock cabinet, attach the lock
washer, nut, and antenna.
c. Attach the two small U-bolts around the antenna. This is for added protection from ball impacts.
5. Ensure all internal wires are out of the way of getting pinched, and then close and secure the front panel.
6. Power up the shot clock and All Sport 5000 console to test the radio control.
Light Strips
For installations with backboard light strips, refer to the LTS-BB Backboard LED Light Strips Manual (DD4692853),
