Introducing the Broadweigh Wireless Hand-Held Display Standard

	Designed specifically for live production environments, the BW-HK-S features an integrated multi-sensory warning system.

Broadweigh has launched the Wireless Hand-Held Display Standard (BW-HK-S), a new tool for riggers and technicians working in the world of live production. Fully compatible with Broadweigh's wireless ecosystem, the BW-HK-S is said to deliver instant, on-the-ground access to real-time load and environmental data.

Designed with the challenges of arenas, festivals, and theatres in mind, the device can receive live data from up to 12 wireless load cells or anemometers at once. Housed in a rugged IP67-rated enclosure with a high-grip finish, it's ready for the toughest working conditions -- whether you're crawling through a grid in a dark theatre or working front-of-house at a stadium show.

Tom Lilly, product manager, says: "The BW-HK-S enhances our system by giving production teams an intuitive, reliable handheld interface that works wherever they are. It builds on our trusted wireless technology and streamlines the process of accessing real-time load data -- helping crews make fast, safe decisions."

Designed specifically for live production environments, the BW-HK-S features an integrated multi-sensory warning system. A flashing screen grabs attention when load thresholds are reached, a built-in alarm ensures warnings are heard even in noisy environments, and a vibration alert offers silent notification for operators working away from the display. With an extended wireless range of up to 800m and remote firmware updates, the unit is future-ready and adaptable across a wide range of productions.

Whether handheld or mounted for permanent monitoring at a rigging control point, the BW-HK-S slots seamlessly into any Broadweigh setup. Its customizable interface keeps critical data front and center, the company says, while hidden menus unlock advanced functionality when needed.

Matthew Youngs, sales manager, comments: "The BW-HK-S isn't just an upgrade -- it's a step-change in how teams manage safety and efficiency during live events. From rigging and lighting to sound and stage management, everyone benefits from having real-time data at their fingertips. It's built for the pace and pressure of the job."

The BW-HK-S Handheld Display is available now.
