# Displayboard

### Setup <a href="#setup" id="setup"></a>

In the `Displayboards Control` view, click on Add Displayboard to add a new displayboard and select the type of display. You can drive more than one board at once and going out on different COM-Ports for different displays.

For ALGE display boards, it is not possible to output to several addresses on one COM port at the moment. You need one COM-Port per address.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Please make sure to have an exporter set up as indicated [here](/dbnetsoft/raceresultexchange/readme/configuration.md#setup-race-result-event). Otherwise this module will not receive passings in real-time and can act upon them. If you plan on only using runtimes, clocks or texts you can ignore this configuration.
