Flexible Campus Scheduling and Communication

Whether it’s establishing a schedule for routine commands or preparing for disruptions -- from late start days to true emergencies -- Conductor empowers you to communicate clearly and to keep the situation under control.

Conductor Admin Station

Complete front office station for Conductor communication. Designed for easy touch access to key functions like school paging and intercom, emergency alerts, and answering calls, the Conductor Admin Station works with the DRS-5000 server and FrontRow audio IP endpoints on the network to provide effortless communication for schools and districts. Conductor allows office managers and administrators to make school announcements, intercom calls, trigger emergency alerts, set bell schedules, stream music, create zones, and more.

Conductor Features

A properly-programmed and -implemented Conductor system lets you control or communicate practically anything across the school. 

Zoning - Identify zones in your buildings with a few mouse clicks — say, all 3rd grade classrooms, the second floor hallways in the science building, and so on. Then make pages to any or all of those zones over your network. If you one day need to change zones to reflect a new arrangement of classrooms, Conductor makes it a job of a few seconds — no need to call in a tech to rewire your PA.

Messaging - Pre-record a daily message from the principal to play at a scheduled time, leaving the principal free to be engaging with staff and students elsewhere on campus.

Scheduling - Establish your standard bell schedules with a variety of tones and set them to run automatically. If you need a late start day due to weather, for example, it takes only a few clicks to shift the schedule.

Emergency planning - As part of your emergency planning, program Conductor with a powerful alarm button for the situations you want to be prepared for. For example, hitting the button for a tornado alert can play a distinct audio alarm to all zones, display an evacuation map on all projectors and digital signage, and play clear, pre-recorded instructions over the speakers. For a lock-down, with a single command, you can simultaneously lock all doors against an intruder, issue an automated announcement about what’s happening, send digital alerts off-campus, and more.

What can you use Conductor for?

A properly-programmed and -implemented Conductor system lets you control or communicate practically anything across the school. Here are just a few examples:

1. With a few mouse clicks, identify zones in your buildings. Then easily page any or all of those zones over your network. Whenever zone changes are needed Conductor lets you do so instantly, no rewiring or outside help needed.
2. Pre-record a daily message from the principal to play at a scheduled time, leaving the principal free to engage with staff and students elsewhere on campus.
3. Establish your standard bell schedules with a variety of tones and set them to run automatically. If you need a late start day due to weather, for example, it takes only a few clicks to shift the schedule.

4. As part of your emergency planning, program Conductor to alert staff of situations using the smart teacher mic or control panel. For example, pressing the button for a tornado alert can play a distinct audio alarm to all zones, display an evacuation map on all projectors and digital signage, and play clear, pre-recorded instructions over the speakers.

5. Emergency response is easily activated with Conductor. For example, trigger a lock-down with a single command and simultaneously lock all doors against an intruder, issue an automated announcement via text, email or phone calls, on and off-campus.
