For maximum visibility

The variable message signs from the proven Nissen VarioSign LED system serve as display sections. These high-performance display panels have many advantages and are in use around the world. The Nissen Prism Sign with three symbols is recommended as a low-priced alternative.

Nissen VarioSign LED system

The Nissen VarioSign variable message signs are equipped with proprietary SMD PCBs, manufactured by Nissen in Germany, and can display all signs and texts dynamically. The individual display panels can be configured in different sizes and are secured by a sturdy aluminium frame.
A special anti-reflective cover is placed over the LEDs, ensuring maximum visibility even in daylight. This optical system with cover is approved and CE-certified. In addition, the exceptionally low power consumption of LED technology enables particularly long operating times. Each LED variable message sign includes a library stored on a medium and can be freely programmed.

RGB technology

Perfect for traffic management at events: All LED variable message signs from the Nissen VarioSign LED system are also available in the RGB version with 256 colours. Here, a lens technology patented by Nissen is utilised, allowing for a 100 percent colour display. Just like the Classic version, the LED variable message signs with RGB technology can display any signs and texts, and, in addition, they can be freely programmed

Prism Sign

The cost-effective alternative to LED variable message signs: Our high-quality Prism Sign enables the display of three symbols (grey/ German traffic sign VZ101 + risk of traffic jam/ German traffic sign VZ124 + traffic jam) and can be operated and monitored remotely with the software Nissen TrafficManager. The aluminium profile housing is powder-coated and weatherproof.

Operation centre (OC)

M-TI-compliant data centre for setting up, controlling and monitoring mobile traffic management systems (mCWS, VMS). Redundant mirrored servers and online connections as well as permanent staffing (365 days a year, 24/7) are necessary.

LED variable message signs

In contrast to the static message signs, LED variable message signs allow for the dynamic display of almost any symbols and texts. They are often mounted to trailers (mobile LED warning signs) with warning lights that have a facility for lifting and lowering.

Central unit

The central unit is a web-based program that evaluates the data transmitted by the control sections, generates the commands for the display sections and documents the display states. The central unit must be kept in a data centre (OC) that is permanently staffed (365 days a year, 24 hours per day) and provides monitoring and support in compliance with the EU standard contractual clauses. The data centre must agree to be a contractual data processor and comply with the corresponding regulations.
