Hardware Platform for IP Audio Center Software

ZYCOO IAS-L100 IP Audio Server

The ZYCOO IAS-L100 is a 1U rack-mount server with the ZYCOO IP Audio Center already installed. It is the central controller for a ZYCOO IP audio system, handling paging, background music, intercom, emergency alarms, scheduled bells and IP phone calls for up to 100 registered SIP endpoints. Plug it in, connect it to your network and start adding speakers, with no software to install on a separate machine.

It suits schools, healthcare, government and financial buildings, offices, shopping centres, retail shops, warehouses, hotels, airports and train or bus stations.

What the IP Audio Center does

The IP Audio Center is the management platform for every ZYCOO IP audio device on the site. From one place you can:

• Page live: SIP paging to individual speakers or zones, with up to 80 speakers paged at the same time.
• Schedule tasks: run bells, messages and music on a timetable, or trigger them by dialling a number. The datasheet lists timetable and number-triggered tasks as unlimited in theory.
• Play music: build up to 24 playlists from an unlimited library of music files.
• Send emergency alarms: trigger alarm broadcasts and link them to cameras.
• Handle intercom and video intercom: two-way calls between endpoints, including video.
• Monitor devices: see device status and review logs.
• Control volume: adjust levels from the server.

Messages, schedules and holidays

Pre-recorded messages and Google text-to-speech let you create announcements without recording a voice. A holiday system pauses or changes schedules on days when the site is closed, so bells and announcements do not run on public holidays or term breaks. A recording system and logs keep a record of what was played and when.

Built for more than one operator

The server supports multiple dispatch users, so reception, security and facilities can each have their own login. Custom device labels make large installations easier to navigate, and feature codes let users trigger functions from a phone keypad. Telephony features can be integrated with your existing phone system.

Version 2.0 adds four functions: Contacts, Dispatch Phone, Dial Pad and Digital Map.
