3.4 Connecting the display unit
IMPORTANT: All PlayAlive
cables must be in a conduit
pipe
Step 1 –An electrician brings the standard installation cable to the PlayAlive ste-
el post where the display is mounted. The following are used:
3 x 1.5 mm2 pvikj installation cable. This cable must be connected with the
supplied PlayAlive ”Pigtail” Cable. Important the installation
is grounded.
Step 2 – Please connect the PlayAlive devicenet cable from
the display unit to the rst light house. Make sure the cable
runs inside a conduit pipe See below illustration.

4.1 Installing LED houses
Please follow the instructions
shown below.
When connecting the cables please adhere
strictly to the gure shown below to make
sure the data and power are transferred cor-
rectly. And follow the drawing to makesure
its assembly currently
The width of the hole for the LED house
should be approx. 400mm. This equates
roughly to 0.014m^3 concrete

5.1 Turn the system on
When alle the provided LED units are mountet and installed, the in-
stalation is completet.
Now please turn the power on. The system now starts up. After 4-5
minutes the display will light up and the system is now ready for you
to select an activity.
5.2 Start an activity and test the setup
Select and start an activity. Go to the display and select an activity.
Start a run and make sure that all lights funktion as intented.
4.2 Turning the LED Modules correctly
It is of utmost importance that when installing the LED modu-
les that they are turned correctly. This is done by rst making
sure the LEDs are pointing the correct way.
the LEDs are angled to point more towards the running path to
ensure the runner has an easier time seeing the light. This is
illustrated on the two pictures seen below.

6.1 General introduction to PlayAlives Technology Platform
The PlayAlive system is an interactive system. The technology elements com-
municate with each other and thereby make it possible to realize activities for all
ages.
The visible part of the installation is the “satellites”, the display unit and the LED
light units. The satellites are intelligent units that contain light, sound, touch
sensor, and communication. They act as the user interface to the system. Cables
connected to satellites supply them with power and communication.
IMPORTANT: BE CAREFUL WHEN HANDLING THE PARTS.
The PlayAlive technology elements are highly advanced electronics. Despite the
fact that they are very robust after installation, they can easily be damaged be-
fore or during installation if not treated correctly.
NOTE: ALL PARTS ARE DESIGNED TO FIT TOGETHER WITHOUT THE NEED OF
USING FORCE.
6.2 Conduit pipes and PlayAlive technology
When using exible cable pipes, it is important to ensure that the minimum ben-
ding radius complies too the following:
For our device net cables, we recommend 28/34 mm exible cable pipe / con-
duit pipe with double walls for easy pulling of the cables.
Please note that low-cost cable pipes are very soft and therefore very easy to
bend in inappropriate radiuses – they are not recommended!
It is further recommended to place covers over the ends of the cable pipes du-
ring the period from installation of the pipes to installation of the electronics to
avoid water in the pipes.
When installing the cable pipes, it is recommended to ensure that care is taken
to ensure that the pulling string in the pipes are kept available. It makes pulling
the cables a lot easier. If this is not possible, then we recommend that you use
vacuum (ex. a vacuum cleaner) to suck a pulling string through. It has proven
easier than other methods.
In some cases, it is possible to push the cable through the pipes without other
help. In cases where this is not possible, it is recommended to use a pulling
string.
Please be aware that the PlayAlive cables are not designed to be pulled in the
connectors. When pulling the cables please make sure that you pull the cable
and not the connector.
