Floor indicators and hall lanterns
Indolift used either a simple 7-segments digit or analog display with illuminating squares for external floor indicators, the latter one is extremely rare. The hall floor indicators had triangle shaped lanterns. For the car station, there is a single 7-segments digit display accompanied with two orange illuminating rounded direction lanterns.

Floor indicators
Indolift mostly used 7-segments digital display for the floor indicators. Most of the time they only used single digit, but some elevators used two digits to support more numbers. There are also very few elevators using 16-segments digit or even LED dot-matrix displays. On later models, most indicators have Kone M-Series style triangular arrows made of six horizontal strips. There are also external digital floor counter with triangular hall lanterns which lights up in orange.

Hall lanterns
Most 1990s Indolift elevators used rounded hall lanterns. There are two types; one is made of acrylic block which light up in white and sometimes yellow orange, and another is just a black round display where red Kone M-Series style triangular arrows would light up. On the main floor, there will usually be hall lantern(s) above and a digital floor indicator below the lantern(s). There is also another type of hall lantern consist of triangle-shaped arrows positioned horizontally above the landing door. Sometimes a digital indicator can also be in the middle
