What is a Talkback system?
A Talkback system allows for real-time, two-way communication between designated stations on a ship. It's ideal for scenarios requiring quick exchanges between bridge, engine room. With a Talkback system, a quick button press establishes a direct line, facilitating clear and concise exchanges without interrupting ongoing broadcasts on the PA/GA system.
Benefits
● Facilitates rapid exchange of information between key personnel.
● Improves situational awareness for crew members in different areas.
● Reduces reliance on messengers, streamlining operations.
● Offers hands-free communication, enhancing safety during critical manoeuvres.
Applications
● Bridge-to-Engine room communication for propulsion control.
● Cargo handling coordination between deck and hold teams.
● Manoeuvring instructions from bridge to crew on deck.
● Emergency response communication between different teams.
What is PA/GA Systems?
A Public Address (PA) system enables broadcasting of announcements and pre-recorded messages to designated zones or the entire vessel. The General Alarm (GA) function triggers a high-priority audible alert, signalling emergencies or critical situations.
Benefits
● Efficient dissemination of information to all crew members simultaneously.
● Clear and timely announcements for routine updates, safety drills, or muster calls.
● Effective use of pre-recorded messages for multilingual crews or standardised emergency procedures.
● High-decibel GA alerts ensure everyone is aware of critical situations.
Applications
● Ship-wide announcements regarding safety procedures, weather updates, or arrival/departure times.
● Zone-specific announcements for targeted messages to specific departments.
● Emergency broadcasts for fire, man overboard, or other critical situations.
