Kalgoorlie Hall of Fame Museum

Advanced Visual Design has welcomed into the new age, Netlinx - a network internet control system.

Due to the size of Western Australia it is not always possible to offer immediate on site service for our rural customers. An example of how we overcome the distance service gap was with the Kalgoorlie Mining Hall of Fame Museum. Advanced Visual Design was appointed to design an Audio Visual System for the displays in the new multi million dollar building in the heart of Kalgoorlie.

A major part of the requirement was to offer control over all interactive displays without a requirement for an Audio Visual operator on site. The Netlinx control system was the key as it contained time lines to accurately activate DVD's, lights, Plasma Screens, and audio as one and all perfectly in sync when triggered by sensors. The Netlinx via the LAN, monitors the whole Museum's floor displays providing a secured diagnostic watch on all equipment and activity. The system also counts the amount of triggered hits on each display providing valuable information for the curators of the museum for popularity and positioning of key displays in the museum.

Advanced Visual Design will automatically be notified if a problem arises in any key equipment via the Netlinx sending an email to Perth before the curator may even be aware of it! Advanced Visual Design can then enter the control system on the secured site to make programming changes, diagnose problems and possibly fix the problem on line from the office in Perth to Kalgoorlie in real time.

Since it's installation the Kalgoorlie Hall of fame has worked tirelessly with out any glitches.
