Absolute position display with communication interface for linear or slide adjustment intuitively guides the operator to the correct machine setting when changing products or changing formats. Readability is optimized for intuitive user prompting: The backlit display clearly shows the setpoint and actual value, and the two LEDs clearly indicate the direction in which the adjustment must be mad.

Industry 4.0
In most cases, data exchange with the position indicators is limited to the exchange of process data. In addition to the process data, intelligent displays provide additional information that can be evaluated for condition monitoring up to predictive maintenance:
