NIKOS is not a conventional PA system, but a radio-based public address, alarm and control system for large events, construction sites and crisis situations, which you can rent by the day through certified partners and either integrate into your PA or use on its own.
ChallengeAt the Dürkheim Wurstmarkt, high visitor density, loud music systems operated by the fairground vendors and crowded festival tents converge with limited routes and visitor areas. In an emergency, warnings and instructions must reach visitors clearly and intelligibly despite noise and crowds. In the event of overcrowding, temporary access restrictions, waiting areas and visitor flows must be communicated in a way that does not create additional bottlenecks. At the same time, the mobile network can quickly become overloaded when visitor density is high, making it unsuitable for mission-critical communication.
One platform for everything: 
unites visitor information, alerting, crowd management and control in a single, network-independent system. ![NIKOS [dispatcher]²](https://nikos.info/assets/logos/nikos/SVG/NIKOS dispatcher.svg)
activates announcement units as needed for individual announcement locations, specific areas or the entire site; ![NIKOS [horn]²](https://nikos.info/assets/logos/nikos/SVG/NIKOS horn.svg)
supplements the acoustic output at locations without an existing sound system. ![NIKOS [audio]²](https://nikos.info/assets/logos/nikos/SVG/NIKOS audio.svg)
receives voice transmissions on site via radio and outputs them as an analogue audio signal, allowing the fairground vendors’ existing music systems to be integrated into the announcement chain. This reduces material, installation and operating costs by minimizing the need for separate loudspeaker systems, additional control units, as well as operating and security personnel.
fully meets. Developed specifically for safety-relevant announcement and alerting applications, is technically designed for everyday use as well as for emergency situations. For ELA systems, DIN EN 50849 forms the relevant framework. Because — unlike mobile network-based systems — does not depend on an external network, immediate usability is guaranteed at all times, meaning the standard is fully met. Other safety-related standards such as DIN EN 54, DIN VDE 0833-4 and DIN 14675 (voice alarm systems) concern a different field of use and functional scope and are not relevant for the approval of . Since its market launch in 2017, has been the leading public address system for temporary and mobile applications, used successfully at some of the largest open-air events in Europe. RADACOM and your regional partner will be happy to advise you on the wide range of functions and support you in implementing the requirements cost-effectively. can interrupt the fairground vendors’ music systems for the duration of an announcement. This reduces the background noise level and significantly improves the intelligibility of announcements. If required, the existing music systems can be used for announcements, eliminating the need to set up a separate announcement sound system. centrally switches off all connected sound systems at the touch of a button. This makes it easier to obtain official approval and helps prevent complaints from local residents. was specifically developed for flexible outdoor applications without fixed infrastructure. The modules can be mounted by one or two people within just a few minutes on a range of structures, such as lampposts, stages, stands or trees, and configured individually. A standard Schuko power outlet is sufficient for continuous operation. An existing digital radio network can be used for the specific project. is rented by the day through certified partners, including advice, instruction and technical support.
