2. Principles for determining the installation location
After selecting the school’s outdoor LED display screen as an “information messenger,” the next step is to find a “good place” for a location that can maximize its effectiveness and coexist harmoniously with the campus environment.
This is not simple, and multiple factors must be considered comprehensively to make this screen truly the “best partner” on campus. Next, let’s talk about the major principles that need to be followed when determining the installation location.
- Visibility and coverage:
First, we need to ensure that the screen can be easily seen by most teachers, students, and visitors. Imagine if the screen is hidden in a corner or cannot be seen by many people due to the angle problem; then its role will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, we should choose places with dense traffic and wide sight, such as the school gate, in front of the teaching building, next to the playground, etc., so that information can be “ubiquitous” and everyone can receive the latest campus dynamics in time.
- Safety:
Safety is the top priority. We must avoid installing the screen in areas that are vulnerable to weather (such as strong winds and heavy rains) or man-made damage. After all, this screen is a “delicate” guy and needs to be well protected.
Therefore, we must choose relatively safe and stable locations, such as places with shelters or areas where protective facilities can be installed, to put on a “protective coat” for the screen so that it can serve us with peace of mind.
- Maintenance and operation convenience:
Don’t forget that this screen needs regular maintenance and operation. If the installation location is too difficult to reach or maintenance is particularly troublesome, it will not be worth the loss. Therefore, we should choose locations that are convenient for technicians to perform daily maintenance operations and management.
For example, it can be installed in a place not too high from the ground or in an area where scaffolding can be easily built for maintenance. In this way, both daily cleaning and troubleshooting can be easily handled.
- Integration with the environment:
Finally, we have to consider the integration of this screen with the campus environment. After all, it has to “live” on campus for a long time, and it has to coexist harmoniously with the surrounding environment.
Therefore, we should choose locations that are coordinated with the school’s architectural style and green environment so that the screen can become a beautiful landscape on campus.
For example, it can be installed in places with green belts or in areas that echo the color and style of school buildings, which can not only ensure the dissemination effect of information but also improve the overall beauty of the campus.
3. Recommended specific installation locations for school outdoor LED display screens
After choosing the “information messenger” of the school’s outdoor LED display screen, and knowing the principles for determining the installation location, let’s talk about which specific locations are the “golden locations” for installing this screen. Next, let’s reveal these “golden locations” one by one.
1). School gate/entrance square
- Advantages:
As the school’s facade, this is the place with the largest flow of people. Whether it is teachers, students, or visitors, they will pass by here.
Installing an LED display here is like setting up an “information bulletin board” at the school’s gate, with a strong visual impact and first-class information transmission effect.
- Notes:
However, because there may be people passing by here at night, the problem of screen brightness adjustment must be considered to avoid nighttime light pollution and affect the environment of surrounding residents and schools.
2). External wall of the teaching building
- Advantages:
The teaching building is the main place for teachers and students to study and carry out daily activities. Installing an LED display here can directly face teachers and students and publish teaching-related information, such as course arrangements, exam notices, etc., which is convenient and fast.
- Notes:
However, it is necessary to choose a non-direct sunlight surface for installation. Otherwise, the reflection of sunlight will affect the viewing effect and make it difficult for teachers and students to see.
3). External facade of the library
- Advantages:
The library is a cultural treasure house of the school with a strong atmosphere. Installing an LED display here can display information such as academic activities and recommended books, which not only enriches the cultural connotation of the library, but also facilitates teachers and students to obtain relevant information.
- Note:
However, because the library is a quiet place, you have to pay attention to the noise of the screen to avoid disturbing the teachers and students who are studying.
4). On the side of the sports field/gymnasium
- Advantages:
The sports field and gymnasium are places where teachers and students conduct sports activities and competitions.
Installing LED screens here can broadcast sports activities live, announce the results of the competition, enhance the atmosphere on the scene, and allow teachers and students to participate in sports activities more devotedly.
- Note:
However, because this is an outdoor environment, you have to pay attention to the waterproof and dustproof design of the screen to ensure that the screen can adapt to the harsh outdoor environment and work stably for a long time.
5). Near the cafeteria or student activity center
- Advantages:
The cafeteria and student activity center are places where students gather for activities, with a large flow of people and a high information reach rate.
Installing LED screens here allows the publication of campus news, event previews, and other information so that students can keep abreast of campus dynamics at any time.
- Note:
However, because this is a place for students to eat and rest, you have to consider the brightness adjustment during the meal time to avoid the screen being too bright and affecting the students’ dining experience.
4. Technical and maintenance considerations
For the technical and maintenance considerations of the school’s outdoor LED display, we do need to pay attention to multiple aspects to ensure that it can operate stably and safely.
The following is a detailed discussion of the three aspects of lightning protection, heat dissipation design, and remote monitoring and management:

Installing lightning rods on the support structure of the display can effectively prevent lightning from directly striking the display, directing lightning to itself and safely directing lightning current to the earth through down conductors and grounding devices, thereby protecting the display from lightning damage.
- Use lightning arresters:
Installing lightning arresters on power lines and signal lines can effectively suppress lightning-induced currents and prevent lightning from invading the inside of the display through power lines and signal lines, causing damage to components.
- Equipotential connection and grounding:
Connect the metal casing, support structure, etc., of the display to other metal components at the same potential and ensure good grounding. The grounding resistance is generally required to be less than 10 ohms to improve the lightning protection effect.
- Regular inspection and maintenance:
Regularly check the effectiveness of lightning protection devices, including lightning rods, lightning arresters, grounding devices, etc., to ensure that they are in good condition.
At the same time, special inspections and maintenance are carried out before and after the thunderstorm season to ensure the reliable operation of the lightning protection system.
2). Heat dissipation design
Outdoor LED display screens will generate a lot of heat during operation, especially in high-temperature environments. If the heat dissipation is poor, the temperature of the display screen will rise, affecting its stability and service life. Therefore, a good heat dissipation design is essential.
- Use efficient heat dissipation materials:
Select materials with good thermal conductivity, such as aluminum alloy, to make radiators to improve heat dissipation efficiency.
- Optimize heat dissipation structure:
Design a reasonable heat dissipation structure, such as increasing the area of the heat sink and adopting an air duct design to accelerate heat dissipation.
- Intelligent temperature control system:
Equipped with an intelligent temperature control system, it automatically adjusts the working state and heat dissipation power of the display screen according to the ambient temperature to ensure that the display screen operates at a suitable temperature.
- Regular cleaning and maintenance:
Regularly clean the radiator and air inlet of the display screen to prevent dust and debris from clogging and affecting the heat dissipation effect.
4). Remote monitoring and management
Remote monitoring and management technology can greatly improve the operation and maintenance efficiency of the school’s outdoor LED display screen and reduce on-site maintenance costs.
- Establish a remote monitoring system:
Connect the display screen to the monitoring center through a network connection to monitor the working status and performance parameters of the display screen in real time.
- Fault diagnosis and early warning:
The remote monitoring system can monitor the fault conditions of the display screen in real-time and perform fault diagnosis and early warning so that the operation and maintenance personnel can find and deal with problems in time.
- Remote configuration and upgrade:
Through the remote monitoring system, the operation and maintenance personnel can remotely configure and upgrade the display screen without arriving at the site to complete the relevant operations.
- Data analysis and optimization:
The remote monitoring system can also collect the use data and analysis results of the display screen, provide decision-making support for the operation and maintenance personnel, and optimize the use effect of the display screen.
