Content Summary :
The most common complaint we hear about paging systems is that
employees either can’t hear their page, or even if they can hear them
they simply can’t understand them. Whether the situation occurs in an
office, manufacturing facility, or retail environment, the result is
almost always the same. The paging employee has to make a series of
repeat pages, and that person’s frustration becomes more apparent with
each additional page. Poorly planned paging systems are inefficient,
add unnecessary employee stress, and worst of all, result in lost
sales. After all, whether the customer is in a store waiting for the
paged person, or on the phone, they’ll walk away or hang up if they
don’t feel they’re being attended to in a prompt fashion.Planning an
efficient paging system is not difficult. You do not have to be an
expert sound engineer to spot potential trouble spots and come up with
solutions. But you do have to take the time to analyze the project
layout, predicting the most likely ambient sound levels, and
determining the most likely paging patterns. Once you have those
characteristics in mind, you can then determine the number and types of
speakers to use. In addition to calculating speaker counts and
placement locations, you should also determine which areas require
adjustable volume controls, and whether those volume controls are
speaker or wall mounted.
