Sign actuation system for lighting fixtures

A flag actuation system for a lighting fixture is disclosed. The flag actuation system comprises an actuator, an actuator axle connected to and drivable by the actuator, and at least two flags, each flag being movable between a first position in which the flag is arranged in an optical path defined by the flag actuation system, and a second position in which the flag is arranged out of the optical path. Each flag is individually and detachably connectable to the actuator axle via a magnetic actuator connection, and each flag is retainable in the first position by means of a first magnetic retaining connection and in the second position by means of a second magnetic retaining connection.
