Messagemaker Integrates Instant Messaging Into LED Ticker Displays

Display messages to your staff, immediately, from a mobile device. Communicate shift changes, safety messages, target achievements, new objectives, personal performances etc on LED signs and displays positioned around your factory floor, warehouse or similar for immediate effect. As an example safety warnings can be displayed even as you walk around the factory.

The latest signs from Messagemaker can now be controlled from a mobile telephone or tablet. This means that messages can be posted immediately without returning to your desk. The new instant messaging solution utilises the TwittLED range of moving message displays for manufacturing and production applications and also offers the capability to stream live Twitter feeds.

With control from now available from a mobile phone or tablet, as well as a PC or laptop, TwittLED’s queuing capabilities also enables health and safety messages, or similar, to be refreshed constantly. For maximum flexibility, you can select to display between one and fifty of your latest messages, announcements or tweets.

Managing the message feed couldn’t be easier. Content can be controlled from a tablet, mobile phone, even whilst on the factory or warehouse floor, or from a laptop or PC, with access to your group restricted as required. Send or moderate messages from anywhere at any time.

The capabilities of the new TwittLED also extend to other communications. The instant messaging channel can be used for example to provide updates on the achievement of key individual or team targets or to relay positive customer comments and endorsements back to staff.

On a personal level, notable staff news such as births, weddings, awards or education success can be celebrated and social events broadcast.

Messagemaker’s new mobile controlled TwittLED displays are available in a range of sizes and colours or can be custom-made to suit individual requirements.

Comments Harry Filer, MD of Messagemaker Displays: “The introduction of the new range of mobile controlled, instant and Twitter-compatible signs is an exciting new development for us offering improved versatility, as it combines the advantages of dynamic displays with a real time communications system.”
