A photocell, provided by Carmanah, is required for crosswalks that utilize an Audible Information Device (AID) such as the Polara iNX/iDX or Campbell Guardian/Wave.

Please note: For existing crosswalk beacon systems, Carmanah's technical experts will conduct solar power sizing and system compatibility assessments on all overhead lighting opportunities.
