Chapter 1: What Is the Meaning of LED Billboard?
The outdoor Billboard display uses a large area display screen composed of a dot matrix module composed of light-emitting diodes or a pixel unit, combined with many modern high-tech such as microelectronics, optics, computers, information processing, etc., with strong environmental adaptability, high energy saving, and longevity.
In recent years, large-screen advertising players have become more and more widely used in outdoor advertising. Outdoor billboard display not only have high brightness, high contrast, and vivid colors, but also display dynamic images and text, active light emission, and high resolution at long distances.
Chapter 1.1 How Do LED Billboards Work?
The LED technology means there will be light emitting diodes to display images and videos. A LED billboard can be consisted of several components including LED modules, LED control cards, power box, cables, cabinet frame and fans.
(1) LED display module:
This is one of the basic component of LED cabinet, and is consisted of LED lamp beads and driver ICs to show different brightness and color.
(2) Power box:
The power box will transform the input power to meet the requirements of LED display working.
(3) Control card:
It is the core part of the control system. A control card can receive the signal from computer and then tranforms it into the command that is compatible with LED display module.
(4) Cables:
Including signal cables and power cables. The power cables transmit the power the display needed to work, and the signal cables are responsible for transmitting control signals and data.
(5) Cooling system:
For some large LED screens, there will be cooling system to help heat dissipation to enable the stable running such as fans.
These parts consist the whole LED cabinet, and we will use numbers of LED cabinets to build LED billboard!
Chapter 2. Installation Method for Outdoor Application
Here is two installation based on different application requirements:
1. outdoor installation with front maintainance
Since there is no maintenance space behind the installation location, we can use the front maintenance cabinet and front open cabinet.
Remark: With the emergence of outdoor front maintenance modules, it will gradually replace the outdoor front open cabinets, making installation more convenient, lower cost, and more widely used.
2. outdoor installation with back maintenance ways
Outdoor back maintenance is the most commonly used maintenance method, as long as there is enough space behind it can be used for back maintenance installation, the following are common installation methods:
1. Hanging type: mainly use the designed steel structure to hang the outdoor LED display screen on the structure. Generally, it is used on the stage or outdoors when there is no wall support. In the case of temporary use of outdoor LED screens, the lifting method has obvious advantages, this type usually used in rental projects. 2. Wall-mounted: generally, a stress point is made on the wall, and the outdoor LED display is hung on the wall, and the wall is used as fixed support. 3. Embedded installation method: generally, a steel structure is added to the wall, and then the outdoor advertising LED display is embedded with the steel structure as a support. The main installation site is the external wall of the building. 4. Column type: if there is no wall or available support points around, the column type outdoor LED display installation method requires a higher steel structure and is the most common installation method. For example, outdoor advertising LED screens next to the highway are installed in a column type. When it comes to advertising, digital LED billboards can make your brand stand out from the rest. With the bright, vivid, and colorful display you can capture the attention of passerby instantly. There are some advantages which give it a competitive position in the area of advertising media. If you are looking for a new way to impact your potential customers, let’s have a look. 1. Long working life for different application with bright, vivid and efficiency display The LED billboard can grab the passerby’s attention quickly and can be applied to various events such as festivals and advertisement campaigns. Compared with the traditional, paper billboard it can display dynamic content with high brightness and clear image. On the one hand, people will be more attracted by dynamic contents instead of a static one. On the other hand, a digital LED display can still be seen clearly even in the dark night, which means it can work for you 24 hours a day, whereas printed billboard may lose the advertising function at night or need additional equipment. 2. High durability with IP65 waterproof grade. Commonly, there is IP65 rating for digital LED billboards, meaning they can resist water and solid contaminant to a large extent and are highly resistant to damage. However, traditional billboards feature vinyl can be easily damageable and usually face the problems of humidity and corrosion. Moreover, you can update the content only through software. But if you want to change the contents displayed on the traditional one, you have to hire somebody to climb up to repaper it, and there will be additional printing costs and labor costs. The comparative lower maintenance costs will save your budgets when you take a long-term point of view. Using a LED screen billboard can provide you more creativity in the content displayed at a specific time. For instance, if you own a restaurant that opens for breakfast, lunch and dinner, you may want to advertise to people a dish of hot egg cakes and delicious coffee in the morning, and the tasty roast chicken combo after a stressful work of the day. You can choose to capture people’s attention based on what they really want. The benefits can be obvious as you can transfer your advertisement from this one to another one in a very short time just using a convenient software at hand without fussy preparing jobs. It will provide you higher sales volume possibility without a doubt. If you own a LED billboard, you can use it to promote different stores. For example, if you have two stores, you can send different versions of advertisements of the two stores in different time slots. That can save you the cost of needless printed billboard and site occupation fee. 4. Advantages for advertisement companies If you are a billboard company, you can update your traditional billboards to digital which will put you in a unique market position. That also means, you can sell the same board to different buyers at the same time, which will definitely increase your revenue and potential client base.

The purpose of Xingwei LED is to help you find the right one, not the expensive one. 1. According to the viewing distance and brightness : P generally represents the pixel pitch, and the value behind P mainly refers to the distance between two LED lamp beads, which we usually call the dot pitch. And the smaller the dot pitch value, the higher the unit pixel, the btighter the display screen. Each dot pitch outdoor led display has its own viewing distance. After the display is installed, how far away the nearest audience is from the screen is one of the important conditions for choosing an outdoor led display. For example, the viewing distance of the led display screen P10 is ≥10M, the viewing distance of the led display screen P6 is ≥6M, the viewing distance of the led display screen P4 is ≥4M, and so on. If the closest viewing distance of the led display you make is 10M, then you have to choose an outdoor led display with a dot pitch below P10. The model can be initially determined. 2. Based on installation area: If the minimum imaging point of the led display is 5W pixels. The display area multiplied the single square pixel of the selected model to get the whole screen pixel. Use this pixel to choose which product is suitable. 3. Different screen size with budget: The smaller the dot pitch, the more expensive the outdoor full-color LED display. After determining the LED display model based on the above two points, you can finally determine which model to choose according to your project budget. Outdoor full-color LED displays generally have a larger area. Although outdoor full-color displays are energy-saving products, the larger the area, the power of the entire screen will naturally increase. energy-saving design can save cost on the electricity bill of the screen. More large screen,like 50~100Sqm, required high brightness,choose P8,P10 will be more good option, competitive cost with high brightness 6500nits. If the screen size is about 20Sqm , then use P4~P5mm, High definition with final cost can be acceptable. 1. Working environment The recommended working temperature is -20℃~ +50℃ and humidity is 10%~90%. Please notice don’t use or store LED billboard in circumstances of high temperature and high humidity. Besides, protecting your LED billboards from leaking or metal particles entering. If dust and metal particles enter the cabinets, they will affect the stability of electronic components. If leakage occurs, please don’t use it until it is maintained and get dry inside. 2. Software and hardware maintenance The hardware components such as wiring should be checked routinely to prevent accidents such as loose connections and so on. The aspect of the software is noticeable, too. Keeping your software up-to-date is essential, and removing unnecessary files can help to improve the performance. The maintenance of software can ensure the timely management and control over your LED display screens and redirect the malfunctions at the first time. 3. Be careful when turn on/off the whole screen Turn on sequence: please start the controlling computer first then tuning on the LED digital billboard. Turn off sequence: first, please shut down the display power, then the controlling software and finally the computer. If you turn off the computer before the board, that may cause burning out. Moreover, don’t turn on the screen with displaying white with full brightness, which will bring big current impact to the powering system under such max power consumption state. 4. Solution for power supply issues. a.When connecting the anode and cathode of the power terminal, please ensure you do it correctly. Otherwise, there will be risks of burning out and fire disaster. b.When powering the giant LED billboard, please avoid powering the whole screen at the same time because the instantaneous power may result in severe impact on your powering system. c.Please don’t display white with full brightness for more than half an hour which may cause excess heat to the system and shorten the working life of the billboard. d.If there are some unwanted phenomenon happens such as short circuit and switch trip, please shut down the LED displays then targeting the problems. e.If the ambient temperature is too high, please don’t use the billboard for a long time. 5. Cleaning way the LED digital billboard As the LED digital billboard can be exposed to the open air, dust, particles and rains for a long time, there are risks of some unwanted situation. For instance, if dust clogs the data ports, it can lead to overheating of internal components. Thus there should be scheduling cleaning work for both surfaces of LED billboard and the inside of cabinets after running a certain period. When cleaning the LED display, please use the recommended equipment such as a soft brush and cleaner and choose the right types of cleaning agents. 6. Storage temperature recommend The recommended temperature is -40℃ to 60℃ and the storage moisture should be less than 60℃. If the LED billboard is powered off for more than 3 days, please preheat the display for 4-8 hours with 30%-50% of the full brightness to dispel the humidity inside the cabinet. Then you can increase the brightness to normal level at 80%-100%. If the LED billboard is shut down for more than 7 days, please preheat it at least 12 hours at the level of 30%-50% of full brightness. Here’re some crucial points to be considered in advance if you’d like a worry-free LED billboard after installation. 1. Waterproof for cable connector Problem: For most Outdoor LED billboard, it’s IP65 front & rear, while some projects meet the circumstances that water comes in from the cables connection port. Solution: We all use cables inside cabinet-inner routing, which will release you from the headache of this kind of problems.p 2. Policy of local government to be noticed & followed 1) Light adjustable & away from light pollution complaint Problem: The brightness for the sun is 2000nits, it’s too dazzling when viewed from our eyes if the brightness of LED screen is over double brightness of the sun (Over 4000nits). That’s why for some EU & US countries, government allows 5000nits MAX brightness for LED display, otherwise it’s defined as light pollution & the worse situation is to be removed. Especially during night, Too shinny Screen is a headache for citizens lives near the screen. In addition, relevant research results also show that “light pollution†can easily cause damage to the cornea and iris of human eyes, causing visual fatigue and decreased vision. Solution: Choose LED display screen with suitable brightness matched to government policy, and add an light sensor built in LED screen, which will allows your screen to adjust the brightness according to the environment automatically. Such as on Finland, government allows ONLY 300nits brightness during night, and a light sensor + timezone brightness Setting would be easier for you. 2) Installation place to be concerned Problem: Some screens are installed very near to the Traffic LED sign, which is very similar to traffic lights in night. Drivers mistakenly think that they are driving forward with green lights, which will cause traffic accidents easily . Solution: Avoid to install your LED screen near to these area in advance.Otherwise it might be dismantle by force. 3) Certificates needed for building Problem: Some end users might need the certificate for building, such as fireproof level – If the building & screen is on fire, will the screen burst. Or the basic point, will the screen self-ignite during the very hot summer. Solution: Get the screens from suppliers with certificates needed, such as us.
