Hugh Sutherland School in Carstairs, Alberta, put its notices on the outside gym wall in late 2024. CampusTech AV installed a LUXVISION ECOLUX outdoor LED sign, 3.84 metres by 1.92 metres, at an 8 mm pitch. A BrightSign HD225 player runs it through BrightAuthor Connected.

The mount is a powder-coated outdoor frame. A NEMA enclosure holds a brightness sensor so the sign can ease off in daylight. Staff update it from an SD card or over the school network, with the division’s IT staff on the network side. Training covered the player and building graphics in Canva. One of the first messages on the sign was a winter-concert notice.
