Voice Alarm Systems are of great importance in protecting people, buildings, premises and products. They perform everyday information functions and, above all, enable well-organized communication and organization during emergency events, e.g. fire or terrorist threats that require efficient evacuation.

Properly selected and configured sound system in the shopping center guarantees high quality of messages delivered to customers, employees and other people staying in the facility. This increases the comfort of using the facility, especially for a large number of people, when messages become less understandable.

An important factor in the configuration of the sound system in shopping centers is their construction, which often covers large areas several floors high, as well as smaller rooms in specific stores. The key here is a reliable, good quality sound system that ensures proper intelligibility of messages in all acoustic conditions, so that in the event of a threat, a clear and consistent message reaches everyone.

Voice alarm system in shopping centres

Applications of the VAS IVO system:

  • alerting about the threat of fire,
  • alerting about terrorist and bomb threats,
  • alerting about a disaster,
  • evacuation control,
  • radio station for communication with customers and employees,
  • music background,
  • publicizing information and organizational announcements,
  • a set of sound signals improving the understandability and hierarchy of messages for customers.

The task of VAS is to effectively deliver information and messages to groups of people in at-risk areas who may not have had the opportunity to learn the content of the messages before and may be hearing them for the first time. This is where the issue of speech audibility and recognition arises, which mainly depends on the quality of the system design, the VAS equipment used, its quality and adaptation by engineers to a given building.

ADVANTAGES OF VAS IVO:

  • system modularity
  • easy, individual configuration
  • versatile use
  • highest quality
  • no redundant elements

INTEGRATION OF DSO SYSTEMS – EXAMPLE MODULES:

WAA card – providing connection of an external audio source to the VAS. Such a source may be an audio player, but also a TV or projector, which will allow the image to be synchronized with the sound from the speakers included in the VAS.
Integration of the VAS IVO system with the BMS system - such a connection is implemented using the RS-485 data transmission standard. The signal input needed for such a connection is located on the back of each VAS central controller (KG-ETH or KG-ETH-MAR).

SENDING MESSAGES USING VAS:

WAA card - connecting a microphone as an external source
KKO card - enabling the connection of one or several wide range of microphones (MI, MA and MAR series) dedicated to the VAS IVO system.

This solution usually works better than the WAA card, because the microphones allow you to deliver a message only to the selected zone or zones, which is not possible when using microphones from other manufacturers. Additionally, each of the MI, MA and MAR series microphones has the ability to connect an external audio source, which allows us to control the playback of background music from the microphone.
