How does it work?

Operation from STOP to GO 

When the traffic light signal is red, the boom arm is in the horizontal position. Activating the remote control raises the boom arm into the vertical position, meanwhile the traffic light signal will remain red. After 2 to 3 seconds of the boom arm being raised, the traffic light turns green advising motorists that it is safe to

proceed.

Operation from GO to STOP

When the boom arm is in the vertical position, the traffic light is green. Activating the remote control changes the traffic light to amber and then red. After 2 to 3 seconds the boom arm lowers down to the horizontal position, securing the work zone. Transition times as per AS4191:2015.
