Hey,
A mate and i recently came across an Alpha 320c Led sign and we have been using the demo software through a serial connection to upload text to the sign. although this works, it still displays the demo text on boot and we are looking for ways around it.
we came across a python script on github and after building and installing it we cant for the life of us figure out how to use it.
here is the link: https://github.com/msparks/alphasign
if anyone could help us with using this program that would be fantastic.

also the other idea was to use an arduino as an IR remote and somehow find the original IR remote codes, any ideas on how to find those?
cheers,
any input or ideas would be great.
