2-Line Electronic Message Center with 0.7" Characters

Alpha Personal Priority LED Display

Model: ALPHA® PPD Series

The Alpha® Personal Priority Display (PPD) is a compact, 2-line indoor LED display designed to communicate critical, time-sensitive information exactly when and where you need it most.

The light, color, and motion of an LED display attract attention and effectively cut through the clutter of hand-changed announcements, bulletin board/schedule notices, email overload, or other message confusion.

The Alpha PPD message center can fit a wide variety of small, close-proximity display needs:

  • OEM applications such as machine operation readouts and advertising messages.

  • Scheduling information for meeting rooms.

  • Wayfinding applications.

  • Kiosk information displays for operation and promotional programs.

  • Automatic call distribution statistics in telemarketing management offices.

  • Real-time system status information and alerts in high priority cubicles.

  • Install on bulletin boards to display high priority employee notices.

The Alpha communications protocol is available for custom software control applications. Or use our optional off-the-shelf AlphaNet™ PC software to control one or hundreds of PPD LED display units on your Ethernetwork.

No computer? Use the optional IR remote / keyboard to program standalone PPD units.
