CONTROL SYSTEMS

Status reporting at your fingertips anytime, anywhere


The K&K Aviation Control System combines K&K’s CrossTalk Advanced Technology with our Aviation LED Beacon Series for optimal beacon monitoring efficiency. This system has been designed to monitor and report the status of aviation lighting anytime, anywhere. K&K Systems’ proprietary communication device, the CrossTalk, using its’ password protected, cloud-based software allows you to monitor and receive status logs on a single beacon or multiple beacons in multiple locations from any internet connected device. Each Aviation Beacon System has a CrossTalk device located inside the control box. It constantly monitors the beacon’s daylight and night activation, usage, and even failure. In the event of a failure, the CrossTalk immediately sends a notification to the predesignated technician via email and text message so a beacon outage time is minimal.
