The case study introduced this month is the famous public senior high school in Southern Taiwan—Kaohsiung Municipal Kaohsiung Senior High School, located in Sanmin District, Kaohsiung. It features comprehensive and fully equipped teaching facilities. Today, Kaohsiung Senior High School has also begun to shift its focus toward international educational exchange activities, providing students with opportunities to connect and interact with students from other countries. Some of the teaching or administrative buildings on the campus are important historical relics built during the Japanese colonial period. Due to their beautiful architecture, they often attract tourists during holidays. This project was undertaken by Specialist Lin Yu-Zheng from Bai Yi Enterprise. The company specializes in comprehensive equipment planning and various professional equipment system integrations, such as stage audio, lighting and curtains, conference system equipment, public address, surveillance and anti-theft equipment, LED electronic dynamic moving message signs, language teaching equipment, and audiovisual electronic equipment. From project proposal, design, and planning to construction, they provide customers with the best quality and assurance. The company also regularly arranges educational training for its staff and participates in various professional training activities to learn core technologies, providing customers with the most advanced and best services and solutions.

The school's public address requirements for this project are:

1. Can be used as a general school-wide public address system, or an addressable regional broadcasting system for indoor areas, outdoor areas, and designated classes, grades, etc.

2. In response to the needs of the College Entrance Examination Center or the Comprehensive Assessment Program for Junior High School Students' English listening test venues, as well as schools' bilingual teaching requirements, English listening broadcasts must be executed for three grades simultaneously, or other areas can be designated to broadcast English conversations or English songs.

3. To ensure consistency in the voice of language listening broadcasts and the tone of spoken announcements, the control software can directly convert Chinese and English text (such as an article or test questions) into synthesized speech for broadcast output. This eliminates the need to pre-record audio files, saving personnel and time costs. Combined with automated broadcast scheduling settings, it simplifies the complicated operation process of English listening broadcasts, making it suitable for multi-functional educational broadcasting in schools.

4. Automated preset music broadcasting for specific periods, schedules, and dates. For example, school arrival/dismissal, class start/end, cleaning, morning exercises, or work start/end chimes, or any background music, can all meet various music playback needs through the digital voice and music scheduled broadcasting system paired with the PA system. It can also execute preset music format files from any computer connected to the campus network to perform scheduled automated broadcast output functions.

5. The main control unit is installed in the control room. In other offices, such as the General Affairs Office, Student Affairs Office, Academic Affairs Office, Counseling Office, and Principal's Office, the campus network and existing computers in each office can be used to perform remote control of zone, group, or all-zone broadcasting.

After understanding the needs of Kaohsiung Senior High School, the BXB WMP-2100 PA system was selected

To tailor the most perfect system for the school, this main unit adopts an ALL-IN-ONE functional design integrated into a single device. It can perform multiple functions such as addressed zone broadcasting, multi-source mixing control, telephone zone broadcasting, two-way intercom, access control and anti-theft... etc., making it highly suitable for campus public address. The simple user interface, combined with indicator lights for easy monitoring, eliminates the hassle of learning multiple systems, helping administrators complete more work in the shortest time. Furthermore, through addressed broadcasting, it prevents areas that do not wish to receive broadcasts from being affected by other broadcast sounds, providing various business broadcasting functions with minimal interference and maximum convenience. It can also simultaneously play different audio sources for three different grades for English listening tests or comprehension exercises, meeting the school's bilingual teaching needs. Additionally, our TTS (Text-to-Speech) software can directly convert Chinese and English text (such as articles or test questions) into synthesized speech for broadcast output, eliminating the need to pre-record audio files and saving personnel and time costs.

Due to the increasing number of campus security incidents in recent years, causing panic among teachers, students, and parents, access control security and emergency call systems have become even more important. BXB WMP-2100 Broadcasting System

In the future, it can be expanded to include functions such as emergency SOS, access control and security detection, and intercom. In case of danger, pressing the nearby emergency SOS button immediately triggers the on-site anti-theft alarm strobe speaker to deter intruders. At the same time, the SOS signal can be sent back to the digital public address host, allowing security personnel to identify the emergency location from the host and immediately proceed to the scene, minimizing harm as early as possible.

Specialist Lin Yu-cheng said, "The school reported that the old system was no longer sufficient. Today's campuses also emphasize English listening comprehension broadcasts. Through the BXB WMP-210 broadcasting system..."

, every place that needs public address and sound reinforcement equipment meets the school's needs. Whether broadcasting through the main unit or telephone, as long as a specific class is designated, it will not affect other students' classes. It is very convenient to conduct teaching for specific classes, which is really great! In the future, we are also considering adding a two-way broadcasting function to make the system more complete and perfect."
