The project delivered for Alleghe Funivie Spa involved the supply and installation of a state-of-the-art outdoor LED screen from the SIGNUM-WS series with 3.9mm pixel pitch, designed for visual communication at the ski lift access area. This intervention transformed a strategic high-traffic tourist location into a highly impactful information and promotional hub, seamlessly integrated with the natural Dolomite landscape. The outdoor LED display, measuring 14 meters wide by 2 meters high, provides a total surface area of 28 m² with a resolution of 3584×512 pixels and 6000 NIT brightness, ensuring maximum visibility even in bright sunlight.
The entire system, consisting of CNC-machined aluminum alloy modules with IP65 protection rating, ensures durability, weather resistance, and easy maintenance from both front and rear. The system is managed through the Omnibus Cloud platform, enabling remote content programming and real-time dynamic scheduling. With this installation, Alleghe Funivie Spa achieves modern, efficient, and sustainable communication capable of enhancing brand value and improving visitor experience through a reliable, high-performance, and visually striking LED display.

Overview and structural design
The SIGNUM-WS was designed to ensure robustness, precision, and ease of maintenance.
- Design and materials: The cabinet is made from CNC-machined aluminum alloy, ensuring superior flatness and perfect heat dissipation. LED boards are mounted on aluminum structures with ventilated rear covers and flame-retardant materials.
- Dimensions and weight: Each module measures 1000 x 1000 x 90 mm, weighing approximately 29.5 kg/m², optimizing the balance between strength and lightness.
- Mounting and handling: Each module features ergonomic handles and four locks for safe and quick installation.
- Special solutions: The series supports 90° or beveled installations, allowing perfect architectural integration even on corner or contoured surfaces.
Visual performance and image quality
Designed to deliver maximum brilliance and definition, the SIGNUM-WS guarantees impeccable color reproduction even in direct sunlight.
- Brightness: Up to 9500–10000 NIT for powerful and consistent visual impact
- Refresh rate and color: Up to 3840 Hz refresh rate and 18-bit grayscale for smooth, flicker-free images
- Viewing angle: 160° horizontal / 110° vertical for uniform visibility from any perspective
- Supported resolutions: From 1080p to 8K, with extensive customization of formats and aspect ratios 2:1 / 4:3 / 16:9
Durability, environmental resistance, and heat dissipation
The SIGNUM-WS is engineered to operate stably and continuously even in challenging weather conditions.
- IP rating: IP66 on both front and rear, fully resistant to water, dust, and corrosion
- Operating conditions: Operational between -20°C and +55°C, with humidity between 10% and 90% non-condensing
- Thermal management: Thanks to integrated aluminum heat sinks and a design with extensive ventilation, the system maintains optimal operating temperatures and consistent performance
Maintenance
The SIGNUM-WS design ensures maximum accessibility and reduced service time. It supports both front and rear maintenance, allowing quick replacement of modules and power supply boxes. Cable-free wiring between module, signal board, and power supply simplifies the structure and improves system reliability. LED boards with interchangeable left/right connections ensure flexibility and operational continuity in any configuration. The SIGNUM-WS represents a premium LED solution for outdoor digital signage: efficient, versatile, and built to last, capable of delivering top-tier image quality and simplified management even in the most complex installations.
Software used: Omnibus
Content management for the SIGNUM-WS is handled by Omnibus, the software platform developed by Macropix for LED display control and scheduling. Omnibus allows you to:
- Update information displayed on the screen in real-time, such as institutional messages, events, alerts, or service announcements, ensuring maximum operational flexibility
- Schedule dynamic playlists, manage multimedia content, and monitor device status and performance centrally
- Monitor power consumption
The system also provides accurate hardware diagnostics, ensuring efficiency and service continuity over time. Omnibus is the made-in-Italy solution that provides complete control over the entire display network with extreme simplicity, reliability, and security.
