LED-Embedded, School Zone Warning Sign | SZ-5800

JSFT Programmable Beacons can be installed anywhere with cellular reception* or in places without, via direct connection. A preset flash schedule can be created using the web-based JSF Tech Beacon App and sent to the beacons wirelessly online, or with a laptop and USB with our offline scheduler. Beacons can also be activated using a cellular-enabled mobile device. The programming can store multiple years and varying schedules, and diagnostic information can be accessed from cellular Primary Beacons.

Each Programmable Beacon set consists of two beacon types: Primary and Secondary. The Primaries store the programmed flash schedule and, if cellular-enabled, contain modems. The Secondaries receive daily on/off signals from the Primaries. Any number of Secondary beacons can be linked to a Primary beacon within range. When a Primary receives an activation command, it relays this command to all Secondary beacons within range in the series.
