PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM
Public Address System
Whether it’s an emergency broadcast to evacuate your premises, a promotion you want to share, or regular daily in-store announcements, our public address (PA) systems let you clearly communicate with your audience.
Deliver clear, audible announcements — every time
Orion PA systems allow you to mix live or pre-recorded announcements in your daily business operations as well as in emergencies. Designed to help your organization keep people safe and secure and improve operational efficiency, a PA system from Orion ensures clear, efficient communication whenever you need it. Plus, two-way audio talk-back enables conversations with people near the speaker. Ideal for both paging a specific person or place as well as delivering voice messages to multiple zones, this scalable and flexible system connects to the standard network to give you all the benefits of network audio.
Keep people safe and improve your operational efficiency with voice messages
Broadcast the right message at the right time
With exceptional performance and reliability, our flexible, easy-to-use PA systems offer easy content management, zoning, and scheduling management. You can plan and schedule your content, and easily change the scheduling within the software. You can also prioritize content so that live voice messages always take priority. This ensures that critical information such as emergency announcements is always delivered promptly for improved safety and security. Furthermore, it can be used with bell scheduling systems, ideal for schools and universities.
Broadcast your message at the right place
Each speaker in an audio system can be addressed individually or grouped into larger zones. For sites with multiple speakers, it’s possible to divide the site into different zones and target your announcements to specific audiences. For instance, you can address your message to everyone on a site or zone, or page a specific person. You can easily change the zone set up in the software so the zones can be reconfigured in real-time from remote, regardless of physical cabling. This also eliminates the need to go onsite. Our audio for PA solutions offer a cost-efficient approach to system design allowing you to easily change both the zoning and the scheduling of content—ideal for last minutes changes as well as unforeseen future situations.
Multipurpose usage
From schools and retail stores to hotels and public buildings, our PA systems are designed to suit a wide range of applications and purposes. You can effectively issue live, scheduled, or triggered messages, in regular daily operations, emergency situations, or to deter unwanted activity. These solutions are easy to integrate with other systems such as video surveillance, access control, VoIP, and many more. Furthermore, the same PA system can be used to play background music helping to create ambiance and increase visitor satisfaction.
A system and sound you can trust
Our network audio solutions connect to standard IP networks and can be controlled centrally. This means it’s possible to perform testing, maintenance, and troubleshooting from remote locations, saving you time and money. And our IP speakers include preconfigured digital sound processing to ensure optimal sound quality in any environment. Built-in microphone enables remote testing allowing you to proactively check that your system, audio devices, and speakers are working – without potentially costly site visits to check. So, whether it’s needed for emergencies or regular daily operations, you can always rest assured your system is fully functional and ready whenever you need it.
Let’s look at just a few examples of scenarios using live callouts and prerecorded messages. There are many more applications where a public address system can help keep people safe and improve operational efficiency.
Emergency notifications
Ideal in emergencies such as extreme weather or natural disasters, ORION PA systems can help save lives. They can be used to issue live or prerecorded messages so you can deliver warnings and guide people to safety with up-to-the-minute evacuation information. With support for 3rd party integration, the PA system can also be connected to, for example, an earthquake detection system or other early-warning systems so you can inform the public as soon as possible.
Automated reminders
Using scheduled, prerecorded messages, ORION PA systems can help you enforce social distancing on your premises. For instance, you can deliver friendly reminders asking people to follow physical distancing restrictions or to wash their hands regularly. In retail environments this powerful solution can be supplemented with our people counting technology, allowing you to trigger audio messages and alert shoppers that the store is reaching capacity. This helps ensure the safety of staff and customers while increasing their comfort and satisfaction.
Non-critical information
ORION PA systems offer a simple, centralized way to issue paging, public address, guidelines, and regulations helping ensure efficient communication on your premises. You can deliver live, scheduled, or event-triggered announcements throughout the day in different zones. And it can be used to play background music or update visitors for instance with information regarding a promotion. By using instructional and informative voice messages you can help ensure your business is always running smoothly.
Crowd and traffic management
Help ensure the safety of your staff and visitors with live or pre-recorded voice messages to instruct people of potential danger and overcrowding. If large crowds have gathered in a specific area or if a building reaches capacity, voice messages can be used to help guide people ensuring their safety and comfort. PA systems can also be used to deliver up-to-the-minute instructions about traffic incidents as well as other verbal guidance to help manage traffic.
