Rectification Work for New PA System (operating from canteen)

The vendor, Mr Robert Tan from Teletronic, had removed the 'blown speakers' for repair (2 from parade square + 2 from hall). Estimated time of completion of repair: 2/3 weeks (tentatively 1st or 2nd week of June)

Using the original PA system (operated from the General Office)

The speakers for the new system, operating from the canteen, had been 'blown' due to rough handling. (Will educate the pupils in the Media Crew)

There is an urgent need to know more, now that the loud noise that our school makes each morning is causing the school and our 2 principals much embarrassment. Many residents in the neighbourhood have been calling up the office to complain!

Explored, with the help of Mr Chee, the original PA system. There are so many things I do not know about this system.

Had some interesting findings:

1. This PA system, which comprises all the horn speakers, controls "6 zones".

• Zone1: Student Lounge & Dental Clinic
• Zone2: Parade Square (** must remember to turn on "Booster amp" to operate)
  
• Zone3: Canteen
  
• Zone4: Multipurpose Hall
• Zone5: (Not in use)
• Zone6: 6 newly fitted speakers
• 2 facing the football field & mounted on "bridge",
  
• 2 facing Parade Square, also mounted on "bridge" and
  
• 2 at opposite Block C (1 at Level 2, and 1 at Level 3 facing residents!!!)

2. All main switches at the panel must be turned on.

3. The square buttons labelled "To Parade Square" must be depressed, when microphone is to be used.

4. When microphone is in operation, all music from CD will be interrupted. (ie. 'cut')

5. REMEMBER TO RELEASE THE YELLOW BUTTON when CD is to be played!

6. There is a microphone, mounted at the front desk in the office, that can allow people in the office to address the 6 zones mentioned above (1).
