VIS clusters are a simple, all-in-one solutions for vehicle instrumentation. They are easy to customize and install. Their look can be tailored to the application using specific software and custom or standard decals.
Even as standard products, VIS clusters are highly configurable, allowing them to fit specific vehicle application in cab and out. If something special is needed, VIS is more willing than other suppliers to customize the application. Its engineering and project management team is happy to develop completely custom solutions for unique applications.
The instrumentation clusters collect data from the vehicle J1939 CAN data bus, discrete switch inputs, and analog sensor inputs. That data also can be broadcast out on the J1939 CAN data bus.
Vehicle designers can select from a broad line to get the mix of features that they need.
