Car Parking
Variable Message Signs (VMS)
Electro Automation offers a range of 4 digit variable message signs for use in car parking and other applications.
The most common application for the VMS is to display the number of available spaces in a car park. As a vehicle enters the car park, a capacity counter will decrement the VMS display 1. When the car park is full, the VMS can display either '0' or FULL.
Our variable message sign is a large 4-digit LED display housed in an
outdoor enclosure that clearly shows the availability of car parking spaces.
In conjunction with Nortech's
capacity counters several VMS can be used together to display the
same information at different locations.
