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 Dresden City Festival, stages, stalls and visitor flows are spread across various areas of the city center. Evacuation announcements must reach multiple areas simultaneously with warnings and instructions, even though gaps in local sound coverage and loud programme segments can impair intelligibility. Cross-area alerting in the open city center therefore requires precise announcements that guide visitors quickly and clearly.
With 
, announcements, system monitoring, visitor information and device control come together on a single platform — fully independent of the public network. With ![NIKOS [dispatcher]²](https://nikos.info/assets/logos/nikos/SVG/NIKOS dispatcher.svg)
, individual announcement locations, specific areas or the entire site can be addressed, allowing evacuation announcements to be broadcast with pinpoint accuracy or across multiple areas, depending on the situation. ![NIKOS [audio]²](https://nikos.info/assets/logos/nikos/SVG/NIKOS audio.svg)
receives the voice transmission locally via radio and outputs it as an analogue audio signal. ![NIKOS [horn]²](https://nikos.info/assets/logos/nikos/SVG/NIKOS horn.svg)
supplements the acoustic output at locations without an existing sound system. This reduces material requirements, cabling effort and the need for on-site operation, as recurring tasks are controlled centrally and monitored or carried out by .
meets the requirements of DIN EN 50849 for electroacoustic emergency warning systems. The system was developed specifically for safety-relevant announcements and alerting and is technically designed for both everyday operation and emergency situations. DIN EN 50849 represents the relevant reference framework for ELA systems. Unlike mobile network-based systems, does not depend on any external network and is therefore immediately ready for use at all times — fully meeting the standard as a result. Other standards known from safety technology, such as DIN EN 54, DIN VDE 0833-4 and DIN 14675 (voice alarm systems), do not apply to , as they are not applicable to radio-based public address systems like . is a public address system for temporary and mobile applications and has been used successfully many times for mission-critical communication tasks since 2017. 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. mainly reduces the effort required for separate loudspeaker, control and communication solutions. Material requirements and cabling work are reduced, and information and emergency announcements can be made from a single location. Central announcements, remote control and status monitoring reduce staff travel, operating effort and the need for guards. This results in savings on personnel, materials and additional technology. centrally switches off all connected sound systems at the touch of a button. This facilitates approval by the authorities and helps prevent complaints from local residents. was specifically developed for flexible outdoor operations 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 connection is sufficient for continuous operation. operates via its own self-contained radio network. is rented by the day through certified partners, including advice, instruction and technical support.
