Lencore n.Form: Installation and Operations Manual - Manual (Page 6)

You’re a Crucial Part of a Sound Decision
Clear direction in the event of an emergency is critical to the safety of building occupants
and employees. In today’s workplace, distraction is a norm that every employee
contends with. You have been asked to play a part of the solution in the planning for
an emergency event. There are four critical criteria for a mass notification emergency
communication (MNEC) system to be successful: Reach, Clarity, Redundancy and
Reporting.
n.FORM™ delivers on these criteria. Furthermore, you are being asked to install the
system completely so that it operates reliably at all times and delivers the messaging in
the intent that it was designed.
The equipment you are installing will play a vital role in ensuring proper communications
in the event of an emergency.
You have been provided with state-of-the-art equipment and technology to install,
test, tune and finalize. As such, your goals for the completed installation should be:
Tuning the system to the proper dB level
Achieving proper sound uniformity
Managing expectations for the product
Leaving the customer with a properly installed mass notification system
Mass notification involves much more than a series of speakers, switches and wiring
deployed throughout the office or campus.
Congratulations on being asked to perform a vital service for this client. You will leave
the workspace a better, safer place to work.
WHAT ARE THE CRITERIA FOR PERFORMANCE?
The audio from a mass notification system must accomplish two things:
It must reach persons in all spaces.
It must be intelligible.
