Full Colour Message Sign
VMS-RGB-10A-STD
'Versatile display suitable for all conditions'
High intensity, full colour LED sign that is fully compliant with European VMS standard EN12966 offering bright, clear messages indicating available spaces and status messages. The sign can be used in standalone counting solutions with Nortech's NCT100 counting modules, in full Parking Count Management Systems alongside Nortech's NCT200 counting modules and NorParc Count Management Software, and for shared occupancy display with Nortech’s shared occupancy controllers (CPC202 and CPC204).
PRODUCT FEATURES & BENEFITS
The VMS-RGB-10A uses low profile LED matrices and are each capable of displaying count values of up to 5 digits with the option to display ‘FULL’ when a count value falls below 1. The display options are set via the counting/control module. Display settings include the display colours and the options to replace the count value with ‘OPEN’ or 'SPACE' when the count value is 1 or more.
The sign has 10cm high characters and can be viewed at distances of up to 50 metres with a 30º horizontal viewing angle. The luminance of the signs can also be manually adjusted to match ambient light levels. The high intensity setting is ideal for regions with extremely strong sunlight. The default setting provides automatic luminance adjustment using the built-in ambient light sensor.
Depending upon the application, up to eight signs can be connected on a single RS485 bus, each displaying a different count value.

Clear Space Availability Displays for Professional Parking Environments
The VMS-RGB-10A delivers exceptional visibility for parking facilities requiring clear, professional space availability signage visible from considerable distances. Designed for airport car parks, hospital facilities, sports venues, and large commercial developments, the EN12966-compliant display ensures legibility in all lighting conditions including bright sunlight.
Installation scenarios include entrance totems at multi-storey car parks, wall-mounted displays at floor access points, and freestanding units directing traffic flow through large surface lots. The robust IP65-rated aluminium housing withstands harsh weather conditions while the automatic luminance adjustment ensures optimal visibility whether installed in covered structures or exposed outdoor locations. With 50-metre viewing distance and high-intensity LED technology exceeding 12,400 cd/m² in white, drivers can make informed decisions before committing to parking routes.
