Drillers
Intercom Systems provide communications between drill operators
and rig personnel. Comprised of a central controller or intercom
server and various outstations, the systems digital
architecture is used to link the stations with the intercom
server.
Standard
intercom servers unit include station line cards, audio interfaces
and relay interfaces allowing ease of connection to PA, Radio
or Alarm systems. Additionally, tone generators and telephone/radio
interfaces may be added to create complex loudspeaking and
PA systems. Each intercom server unit can manage up to 16
digital or analog subscribers, expandable to 32 subscribers.
Intercom servers may be linked or a larger server may be used
for increased system size. By combining intercom servers,
the system is easily expanded at any time.
The intercom
server can interface with a variety of stations. The intercom
stations are available as explosion-proof, weatherproof or
desktop units.
The stations
have direct access by using the keypad, pre-programmed keys
or speed dials. This allows the user the capability of performing
point to point private calls. Additionally, the system may
be configured to allow group calls, conference calls and all
call announcements.
A Windows
based configuration tool allows the user to program the system
parameters and update the system setting when required. If
connected to a modem the user or GAI-Tronics service personnel
can dial in to the unit to troubleshoot the system remotely.
