LED posters for restaurants and quick service

A restaurant or quick-service counter changes its menu and offers often. An LED poster is a portrait menu board that changes from a phone, stands without wall mounting and plays stored content on its own.

Reading distance at the counter

Guests read menus from 1.5 to 2 m. P1.538 shows 416 × 1248 pixels on a 640 poster, P1.86 shows 344 × 1032 and P2 shows 320 × 960. Choose the finer pitch if guests stand close or if you want small text. See the pixel pitch guide.

Menu board layout example for an LED poster

Which type

The die-cast LED poster, 640 mm (front service, or the aluminium profile 640 with rear door) for menu boards. Where the screen is touched or wiped, such as at a self-order point, the LED poster with acrylic glass screen has glass in front; it is not a touchscreen.

Content

Update prices, specials and photos over Wi-Fi from a phone or laptop, over LAN or from USB. Wi-Fi is needed only to change content. Prepare artwork at the native pixel size: see the content formats guide.

Sound and extras

A built-in speaker is Optional, and so are casters, a flight case and a wooden crate.

Cleaning

Switch off and wipe with a soft, lint-free cloth, slightly damp with water. Avoid solvents and do not spray liquid straight onto the screen. See the care guide.
