Re: Large, physical "status indicators" ("displays", of a sort)

No, the problem isn't the "indicators" -- I've already built
other displays with them, but they are all repeatable designs

I.e., my first "displays" placed indicators besides each
connector on a patch panel.  This allows a user to "see"
the state of the connection for the associated device
in much the same way that a *sighted* person can look at
the blinkenlites on a switch.
But, these *want* to be organized in nice rows and columns.
So, you can put a group of them on a PCB and use some number
of groups per each installation; there is value-added in
laying out such a PCB.
OTOH, if you had to build a SINGLE "map" (see previous post)
for each different region of a country, there's no economy
to be gained beyond that of the individual "indicators"
