Turning a sign on and off
When you plug in the sign's power supply, the sign starts up
automatically, and unplugging the power supply turns the sign off.
However, instead of unplugging a sign, there is another way to turn
the sign off:
Hold down FCN and then press PROGRAM to turn a sign off and
on.
NOTE: Messages that you have programmed into the sign will not
be lost when you turn a sign off. Messages will be retained
for up to 30 days if the sign is not powered.
When a signs starts up, the following will be displayed:
