Scoreboard: Can you splice together current loop signal wire/cable?

Topic

  • Can you splice signal wire/cable to the scoreboard?
  • Scoreboard/console is being moved, can the signal wire/cable be spliced to the new location?

Environment

  • Product: Scoreboard
  • Component: 22 awg (Gauge) 2 Pair, Dual Foiled, Single Shielded Signal Wire
  • Control System: All Sport Console

Steps

  • It is recommended to have a continuous run of signal wire up to a maximum distance of 2000 feet.  Signal wire may be spliced but may reduce the distance signal will run.
    • If splicing is done, solder is the best way to splice signal wire together and ensure the connection is insulated(heat shrink or taped).
