Technical Specifications
1. CVFD will be installing a Cirrus "Blade" electronic sign system.
2. Illumination of messages can be set to a specific Nits level, which can be preset to change the level of illumination
at varying times based on sunset and sunrise (300 Nits nighttime and not exceed 5,000 nits daytime). Current
Level of illumination can be seen and if needed changed at any time using the computer interface. Illumination
levels can be changed using system provided software that allows illumination levels to be changed at specific
times. That is to say the illumination changes for both day and night can be preset to selected times. These times
can be changed to reflect the change in sunrise and sunset depending on the time of year.
3. The Cirrus Blade system shall be set to default to black whenever there are no messages set to display. The sign
performance is monitored by Cirrus via a cloud based interface where they can determine if there is a malfunction
and fix the problem from their headquarters.
4. Sign should not exceed luminance level of 300 nits during night time hours and 5,000 Nits during daylight hours.
5. Luminance level can be preset to change luminance at predetermined times using vendor supplied software. Base-
line levels for luminance will be installed by vendor. Additionally, luminance levels will be set via software to meet
seasonal changes in onset of daylight and sunset.
6. During non use times the sign will fade to a solid background.
