The WS-103A-3 illuminated laser warning sign is our most popular sign. It incorporates the following options:
- More detailed and colored legends

Legend wording was composed by Los Alamos
National Labs. The WS-103A-3 sign, with its wording and option set, is known among users
as the Los Alamos package.

Warning signs usually require a WSC-200B controller for
operation. Each controller allows either manual or automatic operation of up to three
signs. See additional text below for detailed description of controller function and other
