In accordance with the invention, the present disclosure is related to a sign display panel for displaying a sign display panel message. The sign display panel includes at least one set of display units. Each display unit of the at least one set of display units includes a plurality of display units. In addition, each of the plurality of display units includes a display unit central processing unit (CPU) configured to execute software instructions associated with the display of the sign display panel message, a display unit memory configured to store the software instructions for execution by the display unit CPU, and a plurality of display elements configured to respond to signals sent from the display unit CPU. The sign display panel also includes at least one interconnect (IC) unit. The at least one IC unit is coupled to a first display unit and a second display unit included in the at least one set of display units. In addition, the sign display panel includes a controller connected to the at least one IC unit.

Dynamic message sign display panel error detection, correction, and notification

In accordance with the invention, there is described systems and methods for automatically determining the configuration of a sign display panel. The sign display panel includes a controller electrically connected to a set of display units by an interconnect unit. The interconnect unit includes a set of display unit connection ports for connecting the interconnect unit to a subset of display units. Each of the display unit connection ports includes a sensor for indicating whether the subset of display units is electrically connected to the display unit connection port. The interconnect unit includes software for automatically determining the configuration of the display units.

Automatic detection of dynamic message sign display panel configuration

An optical assembly for use with one or more LED packages for capturing and redirecting light. The optical assembly can include an optical component and an alignment structure connected to the optical component for aligning the optical component to the LED package.
