  • Public Address System Network Design Considerations
    AtlasIED APPLICATION NOTE Public Address System Network Design Considerations Background AtlasIED provides network based Public Address Systems (PAS) that are deployed on a wide variety of networks at end user facilities worldwide. As such, a primary factor, directly impacting the reliability of the PAS, is a properly configured, reliable, well-performing network on which the PAS resides/functions. AtlasIED relies solely upon the end user’s network owner/manager for the design, provision, configuration and maintenance of the network, in a manner that enables proper PAS functionability/functionality. Should the network on which the PAS resides be improperly designed, configured, maintained, malfunctions or undergoes changes or modifications, impacts to the reliability, functionality or stability of the PAS can be expected, resulting in system anomalies that are outside the control of AtlasIED. In such instances, AtlasIED can be a resource to, and support the end user’s network owner/manager in diagnosing the problems and restoring the PAS to a fully functioning and reliable state. However, for network related issues, AtlasIED would look to the end user to recover the costs associated with such activities. While AtlasIED should not be expected to actually design a facility’s network, nor make formal recommendations on specific network equipment to use, this application note provides factors to consider – best practices – when designing a network for public address equipment, along with some wisdom and possible pitfalls that have been gleaned from past experiences in deploying large scale systems. This application note is divided into the following sections: n Local Network – The network that typically hosts one announcement controller and its peripherals.

  • Public Address System 1. Microphone
    Public Address System A system of microphones, amplifiers, and loudspeakers used to amplify speech or music in a large building or at an outdoor gathering. 1. Microphone A microphone, colloquially nicknamed mic is an acoustic-to-electric transducer or sensor that converts sound into an electrical signal. Electromagnetic transducers facilitate the conversion of acoustic signals into electrical signals. Microphones are used in many applications such as telephones, hearing aids, public address systems for concert halls and public events, motion picture production, live and recorded audio engineering, two-way radios, megaphones, radio and television broadcasting, and in computers for recording voice, speech recognition, VoIP, and for non-acoustic purposes such as ultrasonic checking or knock sensors. Most microphones today use electromagnetic induction (dynamic microphones), capacitance change (condenser microphones) or piezoelectricity (piezoelectric microphones) to produce an electrical signal from air pressure variations. Microphones typically need to be connected to a preamplifier before the signal can be amplified with an audio power amplifier and a speaker or recorded. The sensitive transducer element of a microphone is called its element or capsule. Except in thermophone based microphones, sound is first converted to mechanical motion by means of a diaphragm, the motion of which is then converted to an electrical signal. A complete microphone also includes a housing, some means of bringing the signal from the element to other equipment, and often an electronic circuit to adapt the output of the capsule to the equipment being driven. A wireless microphone contains a radio transmitter. Moving-coil microphones use the same dynamic principle as in a loudspeaker, only reversed.
