1.1 Arcadia Central Station
The Arcadia® Central Station provides a scalable IP networked intercom system. It has a
compact 1RU form and can be configured either from the browser-based Core Configuration
Manager (CCM) or from the front panel menu system. The Arcadia intercom system supports
both wireless (FreeSpeak) and wired (HelixNet) user stations, in a variety of form factors,
frequencies and connectivity types.
As an intercom user station, Arcadia provides 4 keysets with high resolution touch-screen
control. Keysets are assignable to any channel, group, beltpack, program audio or stage
announce. The user station has a headset connection, a gooseneck mic connector and a
loudspeaker, in addition to All Call, Stage Announce and Remote Mic Kill buttons.
Arcadia interfaces with a variety of audio and intercom systems; Dante, 4-wire line-level audio,
2-wire partyline connections to existing analog intercom systems. GPIO connections provide
inputs and relay outputs for system control and interfacing, programmable in Arcadia’s logic
configurator ( navigate to:CCM>Configuration>Logic).
