Trigger Messages an any ALPHA Display Simply and Economically!
The ALPHA Discrete Input Interface accepts inputs from photoelectric eyes, limit switches, proximity sensors, PLC I/O blocks, relays, push buttons, contact closures or any discrete, BCD, binary, or up/down counting device or sensor. Users create and download custom messages into ALPHA marquees using the ALPHA handheld remote or ALPHA Messaging Software. The ALPHA Discrete Input Interface then triggers the appropriate message when the corresponding input on the Discrete Input Interface is closed.

The ALPHA Discrete Input Interface connects to as many as 32 contacts in blocks of 8 inputs. The interface simply mounts on a standard 35mm DIN rail and is easily connected to power, contacts and RS485 serial communications to the ALPHA LED signs.

The ALPHA Ethernet Adapter is easily configured remotely over your network. No external power supply is required as the Adapter is powered directly by the display. Simply attach the Ethernet Adapter to the back of a display and connect your Ethernet cable to the Adapter.

Two additional solutions are available. For 100BaseT networks, Adaptive offers the MSS100 version of the Ethernet Adapter. Where several displays are connected together via a RS485 network, the MSS485 version is available to easily connect multiple signs to one IP address on a 10BaseT network.
