West Sun Communication provides flexible and comprehensive communications platforms that provides a means for broadcasting announcements to students, faculty, staff, and visitors. A Crisis Notification System (CNS) is specifically designed to alert everyone to an emergency that is imminent or in progress, and instruct them on how to respond. This Crisis Notification System is flexible enough to fit the individual needs of each school district or campus, and has the capacity for district-wide administration. The CNS utilizes IP Network Protocol to broadcast all messages through the school’s LAN/WAN. Messages can be pre-recorded to provide a planned response to a specific situation, or they can be broadcast live to address unique or changing situations. The CNS also has the ability to broadcast to one, several, or all facilities at any time.

The Master Clock can control multiple events throughout the facility, such as class change signalling, and automatically adjusts for seasonal events, holidays, and daylight-savings time.

Digital clocks can display messages (e.g. “Bell”) from the Master Clock to provide visual indication of events. Messages can be coded to discreetly convey matters of concern to staff, such as an unlocked open door.

Scrolling messaging capability is also provided. Messages can be activated/deactivated automatically or manually.

People in parking areas, stairwells, elevators, and other isolated locations have access to assistance from a call station or an audio detection unit that automatically initiates a call-in when triggered by screams and loud noises.

Two-way Voice Communications

An emergency call immediately puts the caller in voice contact with a security officer. The exact location of the call is shown on the officer’s console and communications with the calling party is established immediately.

Unlike other monitoring systems, the AMS is microprocessor-based. Audio is digitized, analyzed by the microprocessor, and then compared to 5 different audio patterns for alarm recognition.

Instructors are provided easy control of the television set and the media using a TV remote control. The system is significantly less expensive than other systems on the market because it shares common voice communications networks found in today’s classrooms.

The system can reside on the school’s communications system, the school’s classroom telephone system or can be a totally independent system and components can be added as an extension to the facility’s existing system. Commands are transmitted from the classroom device and routed to the appropriate controller in the media center, in turn, the controller transmits these commands to the media source containing the program material.

The actual video signal is distributed to the classrooms through the facility’s broadband cable distribution system. Each media source is assigned a channel and the classroom instructor simply tunes the television to the assigned channel and starts the program using the wireless remote.

SIP TRUNKING/ VOIP

SIP Session Initiation Protocol which is essentially a phone line that flows through your internet connection.

In other words, when a phone call is placed from a regular single telephone number/line (commonly known as an analog trunk), the voice travels over this pathway and is received at the other end.

In the case of SIP Trunking the phone number remains the same, but when the call is placed the voice travels over an internet path. This can prove to save companies large sums of money and time. In other instances it can create generous revenue streams.

Provided a high speed internet connection is available, an IP phone can make and take phone calls from anywhere in the world as its own local area code. For example a 604 area code (Vancouver Area Code) phone number can be in Hong Kong making and taking Vancouver phone calls as though it were local.

The system combines the functionality of a high-end telephone switch with standard clock, intercom, and program distribution features.

CVS Features

• Paging
• Intercom
• Program distribution
• Clock synchronization/correction
• Tone signaling are an integral part of this system

The system employs modular architecture to allow for easy expansion and serviceability. Because communication functions are integrated into the system via plug-in circuit cards, a system can be tailored to a facility’s exact requirements. Room locations can be equipped with a variety of devices such as speakers, call-in switches, message waiting/call assurance lamps, and staff telephones. The system provides for two-way intercom communications between control consoles and speaker stations.

Direct-dial, duplex, phone-to-phone communication is also provided between staff telephones and control consoles. With central control and remote access the IT director can now manage and maintain all programming, from one location.

Engineering intercommunication systems to suit any environment. Whether it be a school campus, a hospital, an industrial warehouse, or an assortment of connected locations – every space has its own set of specific paging and intercom requirements, and challenges.
