Passenger access.
Safe boarding and alighting.
Access with added value: EAO components and solutions make a significant contribution to faster passenger turnover and increased safety, with benefits for you and your passengers.
The passenger access can do that.
Open doors – close doors.
User-friendly and reliable: our components and solutions are often the only interaction point between passengers and the vehicle. Your passengers benefit from large door opening push buttons, individually programmable multi-tone sound modules, warning lights and the speaker module.
EAO door openers are established worldwide, with millions in use including in extreme climatic conditions. When developing them we consider human factors, intuitive symbols, tactile, and acoustic and optical feedback – and of course optimum function.
We maintain close relationships and a lively exchange of ideas with associations for people with disabilities in order to meet their needs. We wish to help all people enjoy a safe and comfortable journey, from the time they get on to the time they get off.

Multi-tone warning indicator.
Compact, intuitive and safe.
Acoustic warning and LED status display combined in one compact device: EAO offers another innovative product with the new Series 57 Multi-Tone Warning Indicator (MTWI).
When opening and closing doors in public transport, safety comes first. This also includes accessible applications, whether for passenger access on trains, trams, bus or public emergency call and help points (call for aid). Users can rely on Series 57 acoustic and visual warning at all times and wherever they are.
Typical applications
- Passenger access to trains, trams and buses
- Emergency call and help points (call for aid)
- Access control systems
The MTWI brings together in one device two HMI Functions already well-established in the rail industry: the Series 56 multi-tone sound module and Series 57 visual warning indicators. The result offers increased safety on public transport, particularly for people with impaired vision.
Advantages
- Audible and visual warning in a single device
- A single cable for space and cost savings in mounting
- Modern, timeless design of Series 57
- Long service life and attractive total cost of ownership
- Intense 180° illumination
When opening the train door, (externally triggered) green LEDs light up or flash. At the same time the door opening signal sounds to provide acoustic signalisation. As soon as the door closes, the red LEDs light up (or flash) and the door closer signals can be clearly heard. Various LED colours and combinations are available in this regard. For emergency-call voice announcements, there is a version with a passive speaker module that you can connect to an external signal source with an amplifier.
The wide range of technical and economic advantages makes the MTWI the optimum device for users, systems providers for train doors, and operators in public transport.
Multi-Tone Sound Module.
Compact acoustic warning.
Multi-Tone Sound Modules (MTSM) acoustically warn people of hazards, especially in public facilities. Examples include closing automatic doors in trains and lifts, pedestrian crossings, security and access systems, vehicles and machines, as well as building technology.
Advantages
- Compact design
- Easy-to-customise tone sequences
- Standard tone sequences pre-programmed, e.g. as per TSI PRM
- Conventional activation of tone sequences via six wires, or binary activation via four wires
- Sound pressure can be configured externally or adjusted automatically based on the ambient noise level
- With maximum IP69K front protection
Indicator.

Multi-legend display.
Flexible and clearly visible status display.
EAO’s intuitive indicators for public transport offer quickly identifiable and clearly recognisable symbols. This means that passengers can quickly see from a distance whether a toilet is available, occupied or out of service. This avoids unnecessary waiting and long periods spent searching for toilets. In the event of a fire, rapid recognisability of the alarm pictogram is particularly important, and passengers benefit from this as well as many other notification applications.
Typical applications
- Toilet facilities in trains, on coaches and in public environments
- Various functions for informing and alerting passengers
- Passenger access status indicators
The Series 57 Multi-Legend Display fulfils all requirements for public transport in terms of intuitive operation, flexibility, ease of maintenance, and relevant standards.
Advantages
- Up to 18 customisable symbols per display
- Excellent visibility and wide viewing angle
- Environmentally adaptive sensor for display brightness
- Modern design with low back panel depth
- Complies with relevant standards
Programmer kit
Display symbols with a resolution of 432 x 432 pixels are possible and can be configured on the device using the programming kit.
The Series 57 Multi-Legend Display is the ideal choice for manufacturers of trains, train doors, and toilet systems in public spaces, because the intuitive indicator is flexible and clearly visible at all times.
Warning indicator.
Keep hazards in view.
Warning indicators from EAO visually alert people to dangerous situations. They can also signal system faults in public facilities such as rail vehicles, buses, lifts, emergency call terminals or in building technology.
Advantages
- Wide-angle, all-round visibility
- Customisable parameters, e.g. flashing frequency, pulse duration/continuous light
- Full range of LED colours for illumination
- Resistant to cleaning agents
- High-luminosity warning flasher
- Easy to install
