Wireless Conferencing in the Shire.
Alexandrina Shire Council, located just south of Adelaide in Goolwa, has facilities to hold regular official council meetings. When a redevelopment of the council chambers, offices and library facilities was being planned recently, Matt Dixon from BSS Light and Sound Innovation was consulted to recommend a wireless conferencing solution. After much research, Matt concluded that the new TOA TS-800 Infra-red conferencing system would be ideal to meet the requirements of the council.
The new TOA TS-800 series conference system that has now been fully installed provides the Council with a complete wireless solution for a chairman unit plus up to 14 delegates. As the council chambers are used for a wide variety of functions, including council meetings, citizen awards and book launches as well as other events, the room can now be reconfigured quickly to suit every need. The cable less set-up is quick and easy as a charging unit allows all the batteries in the delegate system to be fully charged, primed and ready to go at any time. When ready to be used for the functions, the TS-800 central amplifier conducts an analysis on the system to determine the number of ‘live’ units and ensures that they are ready to perform.
So as not to detract from the aesthetics of the council chamber, four of the IF flooders were mounted on the walls above the acoustic paneling together with the sound reinforcement speakers.
Alexandrina Council’s manager of Information Technology Systems, Colin Shackleford, is pleased with the ease of use of the TS-800 system, the integration with the room’s new sound system and, most importantly, about meeting all the requirements for an affordable cable less conferencing solution.
The TS conference system from TOA is available in two systems: the TS-800, which can accept up to 64 chairman/delegate units, and the TS-900 system, which has voting facilities, bi-lingual operation and allows up to 96 chairman/delegate units to be connected.
Both the TS-800 and TS-900 systems are available with optional rechargeable batteries that will last for up to 8 hours of operation. There is also a DC socket on each unit for flexibility of connection and both systems can be controlled via third party devices.

Audio signal processing, sometimes referred to as audio processing, is the processing of a representation of auditory signals, or sound. The representation can be digital or analog. An analog representation is usually electrical; a voltage level represents the air pressure waveform of the sound. Similarly, a digital representation expresses the pressure wave-form as a sequence of symbols, usually binary numbers. | |
