Explore the Latest LED Design Adornments at Penn State
In an exciting development for sports enthusiasts, Penn State University has recently upgraded several of its athletic facilities with state-of-the-art video scoreboards. The Jeffrey Field soccer pitch and Beard Field in the Nittany Lion Softball Park, as well as indoor and outdoor football practice facilities, now boast LED video scoreboards, each approximately 26 feet wide and 15 feet tall with a 10mm pixel pitch.
Behind the scenes, these impressive displays are powered by LynTec's LCP (Lighting Control Panel) power distribution panels. The LCP panels, chosen for the Penn State installations, offer several key features and benefits that ensure operational efficiency, safety, and performance.
One of the LCP panel's standout features is its remote power control capability. Operators can manage power distribution to various devices such as video scoreboards and auxiliary equipment from a centralized location, reducing manual intervention, downtime, and potential for human error.
The LCP panels also feature circuit-level control and monitoring, enabling precise management of power loads and facilitating troubleshooting. Additionally, they are designed to integrate seamlessly with advanced control systems, allowing automated scheduling, event-based triggering, and real-time system monitoring.
Built for reliability in demanding environments, LynTec's panels are rugged and engineered to ensure safe and consistent power delivery. They can be tailored to meet the specific power requirements of video and display systems used in large-scale athletic facilities, and comply with industry standards ensuring safe operation within electrical codes.
SNA Displays, the company responsible for the videoboard upgrade projects, also provided web-based control software for easy operation and valuable insights into the display systems. The Holuba Hall indoor football practice facility, for instance, features a 26-foot-wide, 14-foot-high dvLED video wall.
The interoperability between LynTec and SNA Displays' web interface was already customized for the Penn State project. Operators use the same SNA Displays GUI they use to monitor and manage the video walls to power them on/off, see if any circuits are tripped, and troubleshoot issues remotely.
The partnership between LynTec and SNA Displays has proven to be crucial for supporting challenging projects like these. AJ Faxel, director of sports and live Events, emphasized the importance of these systems running at maximum efficiency and uptime for university and student athlete competitions.
In summary, the collaboration between LynTec and SNA Displays has delivered a seamless, comprehensive system for elevated game experiences at Penn State University. By providing reliable, remotely controllable, and customizable power management solutions, the LCP power distribution panels enhance efficiency, safety, and performance of the university's athletic facility video scoreboard and related systems.
