Digital PAN Audio Ecosystem your connection to the passenger
In addition to the visual interior and exterior displays of a passenger information system (PSI), the acoustic transmission of information is an equally important component of the system.
Announcements of information relevant to the timetable, further connections or delays as well as other information and safety instructions are done via the Phone and Announcement System (PAN). PAN also ensures communication between the driver and the control center or between driver’s cabs.
PAN Server central switching unit
The FELA PAN server is the central switching unit in the PAN audio system and connects all audio devices in the train: GSM gateway, train radio system, emergency call stations, PSI and digital audio amplifier ACA 2201. Our PAN server handles the switching of digital calls for the various audio use cases: Passenger emergency calls, train driver announcements, station announcements from the passenger information system and the playback of predefined special messages.
PAN advantages
The resource-saving programmed software works on every server in the train. There is no need for a separate computer or special software due to virtualization on different instances and low memory requirements.
The software consists of the audio part of the complete PIS with FELA POIScentral (administration in the backend, control center) and POISmobile (operation in the frontend, vehicle).
