SONIFEX SIGNALLED ILLUMINATED SIGNS - LED

SignalLED

Sonifex's SignalLed range of illuminated RGB LED signs are designed for installers. Because the sign itself contains the control electronics, and RGB LEDs are used, the signs can be simply configured on site for particular requirements, using an optional remote control. For ease of use, as standard, they are configured in standard colours (further details in the Configuration chart - Sonifex Signalled Illuminated Signs). Using the optional remote control, they may be configured in one of 8 other colours (see below for details) . 'Twin' types may be configured as two separate signs.

Both single and twin signs are supplied, as standard, so that they can be mounted flush to a wall. However, optional mounting kits available are: LD-KE1 - enables the sign to be installed perpendicular to a wall (end-mounting), for example above a door or mounting kit, LD-KC1 - enables the sign to be mounted to the ceiling. A special end-mounting installation tool, the LD-IT, is available for use with the LD-KE1 end-mount kit, to allow the sign to be temporarily mounted to the wall whilst still allowing access to the power and signal wiring, thus saving an extra pair of hands to simply hold the sign in place.

Each sign is 200mm or 400mm long. The 400mm signs are available both as single and twin-display types. The twin ones can be split into two 200mm sides which can be controlled separately or jointly. For example, a twin unit could combine 'ON AIR' and 'MIC LIVE' in one sign.

SignalLEDs can be controlled by either, or both, of two pull-low inputs. For example, a single input can be used to control a single 'MIC LIVE' sign, or two inputs can be used to control a twin 'TX' and 'REH' sign with independent control of each side of the sign. If an alternative Colour or Display Mode is required, then they must be programmed using an optional LD-RPC remote control, suitable for use on any number of signs. A User Manual gives further information on these modes, please see the linked resources for further details.

The signs are supplied, as standard, complete with a plug-in power supply with attached outlet cable. The DC input and control-signal cables route through an integral cable clamp and connect to a screw-terminal block. The standard plug-top power supply supplied has a fixed 2m lead and also includes a 3m DC extension. Models using the prefix LDD have been designed for use with 7-36V DC power input, convenient for those using 12-24V network power distribution units.

Custom Signs

Custom signs with alternative wording, including other languages, can be produced to special order, price by quotation. Please contact Sales for further information.

AVN-GPIO - GPIO to LAN transceiver

AVN-GPIO is part of Sonifex's AVN range of network interface boxes, and it has been designed to convert GPIO (General Purpose Inputs and Outputs) to network commands. This is particularly useful when a user wishes to control equipment such as SignalLEDs across a standard network.

With 10 configurable GPIO’s, 8 of which can be used for PTP based programming, together with a relay, AVN-GPIO can trigger or be triggered by other Sonifex devices on the network using virtual GPIO without the need for extra wiring. Units can either be interfaced together across a network, or the user can employ Ember+ and UDP commands to accept commands from, or drive, the AVN-GPIO. Housed in a 'rugged' aluminium box and powered by PoE, AVN-GPIO is a PTP (Precision Time Protocol) enabled device. IEEE1588-2008 PTPv2 is employed to keep a hardware clock in sync with a PTP master, such as the AVN-GMCS
grandmaster clock, to achieve a sub 10 nanosecond synchronisation to the master reference. This means that the AVN-GPIO can be used to accurately timestamp input events and to trigger outputs at configured times.

Sonifex AVN-GPIO supports default and AES67 media profiles, whilst also providing a custom profile which can be configured by the user. It is configured via a built-in webserver to allow the configuration of PTP as well as live monitoring of its status. A GPIO routing webpage is provided which allows physical, timed, and virtual inputs to be routed to physical, timed, and virtual outputs.
