Installation Instructions Installation consists of four steps, Unpacking the Equipment, Message Center mounting, Connections, and Software setup. Be sure to read and understand all of the instructions before installing the equipment. Consult the “installer’s trouble shooting guide” following this section for verifications each step has been installed and is working correctly.
1. Unpacking the Equipment Inspect the shipping container for damage. If any damage can be seen, contact the carrier immediately. Carefully remove all equipment from its packing carton. Do not pry against the message center in any way.
2. Message Center Mounting Nevco strongly encourages you to check local codes before beginning the installation. You may wish to contact a local architect, contractor, or sign installer for assistance. Your Nevco Sales Representative may be able to assist you in finding professional installers who are familiar with this type of equipment. Always use good mechanical practices when mounting the message center. Use plated fastening devices to prevent rust or corrosion. Mount the optional temperature sensor / photocell out of direct sunlight to avoid an elevated reading. Mount the two wireless devices (if present) in clear line of sight with each other. For indoor installations, install angle iron on wall or other structure prior to attaching the message center. Angle iron and attachments (bolts, washers, etc.) are not included. See installation drawings for approximate distance between angle iron supports. For outdoor installations, install tubing laterals on columns prior to installing the message center. Laterals should be welded or bolted to steel columns. Laterals and attachments (bolts, washers, nuts, etc.) are not included. See installation drawings for approximate distance between lateral supports. Brackets on message centers can be welded or bolted to the laterals. Each message center comes with 2 lifting points on the top of the unit. When using the lifting points, make sure cables are vertical and not putting an undue horizontal force on the lifting points. Use of a spreader bar is recommended when using the lifting points. For multi-section message centers, make sure the cabinets and supports line up vertically and horizontally. Cabinets should be installed as tight as possible to each other. Where the sections join together, a bracket shall be installed at the top and bottom. Half of the bracket should support each section. Your Message Center was designed so that it can be mounted in a variety of ways. Please examine the installation drawings to determine the best mounting method for your location. Access to all internal components is through the front, accessibility to the rear of the cabinet is NOT necessary. The standard mounting brackets are shipped on the Message Center in a “retracted” position and must be unbolted and rotated 180°, then reattached with the same bolts before starting the installation.

3. Message Center Connections Each message center, whether it is made up of two cabinets end to end, or two cabinets back to back (double sided), or a single cabinet, requires that power and signal be supplied to each cabinet by the installer. All internal connections have been completed and tested at the factory. Both power and data should enter each message center cabinet at its lower left corner as viewed from the front. An access panel is provided for these connections. The “signal in” conduit attaches to the panel and a junction box is mounted on the panel for power connections. Similar access panels are installed on the back and bottom of the cabinet. All three panels are interchangeable so that the one with the junction box can be located in the most favorable position. The panel with the junction box can be moved to either of the other locations without disconnecting any cables inside the message center.
Be sure to reattach all panels so as to maintain a weather tight seal. The optional temperature and light sensors should be mounted near this location and need to be connected to a cable inside the message center behind the access panel.
At the lower right corner of the message center as viewed from the front is a similar arrangement for the “signal out” if needed. Used for side 2 of a two sided message center, and message centers made up of two cabinets mounted end to end.
Note: Please see installation drawings for more details.

Computer is Connected to an existing Network
The message center controller and wireless equipment (optional) are pre-configured to a default network configuration. The IP address of the controller is set to 192.168.0.210. Wireless Bridge and AP are 192.168.0.211 and 192.168.0.212 respectively. The steps to change the IP address on each of the devices are explained in detail in the user’s manuals for each device. Consult these manuals for more information. The wireless devices support DHCP, but the message center’s IP address must be static. To integrate the equipment into your existing network, in this order you must change the IP address on a computer, use that computer to change the message center IP address, change the outdoor bridge IP address, and then change the Access Point IP address. Follow these steps: 1. Connect the access point to the LAN with a straight through Ethernet cable. The unit is shipped with a crossover cable for connecting directly to a PC. 2. Change a PC on the network’s IP address as instructed in “Not connected to an existing Network” above. 3. Change the Message Center’s IP address by following these steps. a. Install Nevco Composer™ on the Computer. Be sure to plug the license key into the USB port. b. Enter “Password” as instructed in the manual. As long as the password remains “Password” you will be prompted to change it each time the program is loaded. c. Go to Message Center=>Configure Password and Message Center d. Enter your current password and click connect on the right hand side of the window. e. Enter the new IP address and subnet mask and click Update. 4. Change the Outdoor wireless client’s IP address by following these steps. a. Open internet explorer and in the Address Bar type 192.168.0.211 b. Refer to the sticker in your user’s manual for the username and password. c. A web page called Wireless Client Bridge will come up. Click on “TCP/IP Settings” and select “LAN Interface”. d. Change the network settings as necessary to fit your network topology and click “ Apply Changes”. e. You may also want to change the wireless settings to suit your own security needs. Be sure to change the Access Point to match in the next section. 5. Change the Access Point’s IP address by following these steps. a. Open internet explorer and in the Address Bar type 192.168.0.212 b. Refer to the sticker in your user’s manual for the username and password. c. A web page called Wireless LAN Access Point will come up. d. Follow the same steps as 4, steps c - e. Make sure any security settings changed on the Client Bridge match settings on the Access point. 6. You may now change your PC’s IP address back to its original configuration. Test the new configuration by opening Nevco Composer™, going to Project=>Configure, enter the new IP address of the message center and click “OK”. The status at the bottom of the screen should now be “Display Connection = Ethernet”.

Installation Instructions Installation consists of four steps, Unpacking the Equipment, Message Center mounting, Connections, and Software setup. Be sure to read and understand all of the instructions before installing the equipment. Consult the “installer’s trouble shooting guide” following this section for verifications each step has been installed and is working correctly.
1. Unpacking the Equipment Inspect the shipping container for damage. If any damage can be seen, contact the carrier immediately. Carefully remove all equipment from its packing carton. Do not pry against the message center in any way.
2. Message Center Mounting Nevco strongly encourages you to check local codes before beginning the installation. You may wish to contact a local architect, contractor, or sign installer for assistance. Your Nevco Sales Representative may be able to assist you in finding professional installers who are familiar with this type of equipment. Always use good mechanical practices when mounting the message center. Use plated fastening devices to prevent rust or corrosion. Mount the optional temperature sensor / photocell out of direct sunlight to avoid an elevated reading. Mount the two wireless devices (if present) in clear line of sight with each other. For indoor installations, install angle iron on wall or other structure prior to attaching the message center. Angle iron and attachments (bolts, washers, etc.) are not included. See installation drawings for approximate distance between angle iron supports. For outdoor installations, install tubing laterals on columns prior to installing the message center. Laterals should be welded or bolted to steel columns. Laterals and attachments (bolts, washers, nuts, etc.) are not included. See installation drawings for approximate distance between lateral supports. Brackets on message centers can be welded or bolted to the laterals. Each message center comes with 2 lifting points on the top of the unit. When using the lifting points, make sure cables are vertical and not putting an undue horizontal force on the lifting points. Use of a spreader bar is recommended when using the lifting points. For multi-section message centers, make sure the cabinets and supports line up vertically and horizontally. Cabinets should be installed as tight as possible to each other. Where the sections join together, a bracket shall be installed at the top and bottom. Half of the bracket should support each section. Your Message Center was designed so that it can be mounted in a variety of ways. Please examine the installation drawings to determine the best mounting method for your location. Access to all internal components is through the front, accessibility to the rear of the cabinet is NOT necessary. The standard mounting brackets are shipped on the Message Center in a “retracted” position and must be unbolted and rotated 180°, then reattached with the same bolts before starting the installation.

3. Message Center Connections Each message center, whether it is made up of two cabinets end to end, or two cabinets back to back (double sided), or a single cabinet, requires that power and signal be supplied to each cabinet by the installer. All internal connections have been completed and tested at the factory. Both power and data should enter each message center cabinet at its lower left corner as viewed from the front. An access panel is provided for these connections. The “signal in” conduit attaches to the panel and a junction box is mounted on the panel for power connections. Similar access panels are installed on the back and bottom of the cabinet. All three panels are interchangeable so that the one with the junction box can be located in the most favorable position. The panel with the junction box can be moved to either of the other locations without disconnecting any cables inside the message center.
Be sure to reattach all panels so as to maintain a weather tight seal. The optional temperature and light sensors should be mounted near this location and need to be connected to a cable inside the message center behind the access panel.
At the lower right corner of the message center as viewed from the front is a similar arrangement for the “signal out” if needed. Used for side 2 of a two sided message center, and message centers made up of two cabinets mounted end to end.
Note: Please see installation drawings for more details.
