The system benefits from advanced 6.25kHz channel spacing which can allows twice the amount of users than other systems. IDAS digital radios receive both analogue and digital signals on a single channel. This means you can partially introduce the IDAS digital handportables, mobiles or repeaters, while using the existing analogue radios in your radio system. The IDAS system allows you to scale migration to narrow band digital at your own pace, while running your existing analogue system, a cost efficient way to obtain the next generation in two-way radio technology. With a large range of applications and system products available, IDAS provides the necessary infrastructure to provide effective communication to all areas of your operation. Receivers/Scanners (not shown) To monitor air traffic broadcasts, ICOM receivers and scanners are also available. The line-up is varied and versatile, beginning with the IC-R6 handheld through to the top of the range IC-R9500L desktop, base-station receiver. All Areas - Security In addition, ICOM UK have developed several security management systems that improve operational efficiency and provide stress-free solutions to staff safety and operations. RMS-Net Digital Radio Management System provides organisations with efficient communication within the workforce and improved management of health and safety. This software solution logs all radio traffic onto a central database whilst desktop users stay in touch via their PC. RMS-Net supports a broad range of communication methods. Based on your requirements RMS-Net offers essential safety features such as Mandown alerts, Loneworker functions and panic buttons. RMS-Net is incorporated into the i-READ and i-LOC Management systems, thus providing improved health and safety management and communication with the mobile workforce. i-READ Guard Tour Management System uses specially adapted ICOM radios to scan waypoint badges installed on a predetermined route. This information acts as a time date stamp/proof of patrolling and is returned to a central radio base station and stored on the PC running RMS-Net. i-LOC Security Management System uses strategically placed, on-site, low-power beacons that periodically transmit their identity. Receivers fitted inside ICOM handportables receive these beacon transmissions when the user of the portable passes by. This is then reported to the PC running your RMS-Net software. We can supply custom-built systems too, so just call ICOM - the Radio Communication Specialists! We also supply the correct antennas to compliment ICOM radio communication equipment.
