K100 Programmable Display Beacon

Indicate and Inform at Every Angle

The K100 Programmable Display Beacon offers enhanced industrial signaling capabilities. It provides full 360-degree awareness through a bright white alphanumeric display combined with dynamic color indication in a single, rugged device.

  • Improves awareness across a full 360 degrees with a bright white alphanumeric display and dynamic color indication in a single rugged device.
  • Easily configure color, messages, and display behavior in discrete models using free software, or take full control via protocol with IO-Link and Modbus models.
  • Conveys more detail with up to 32 scrolling alphanumeric characters legible from 10 meters.
  • Enhances visibility and status recognition with 14 distinct, configurable color options.
  • Makes critical messages unmistakable with optional audible alerts that capture attention in noisy environments.
  • Integrates seamlessly into any system with discrete, IO-Link, and Modbus models.
