Zones

A Zone is a sub-division within a site, representing a physical space that may need different calculation parameters or to organize frequencies. Zones contain Groups that hold frequencies.

Zones within a project avoid direct hits from frequencies in other Zones by default. Intermodulation tests can be enabled and configured in the Zone Settings Dialog.

Additional helpful features such as TV Channels, Scan Data, and Frequency/Range Exclusions allow you to search the environment for available frequencies and share the project with other users.

Usage examples

Multi-room large event

  • For a large event with isolated happenings in different parts of a building, Zones can be created for each event space. This allows near events to consider all Intermodulation tests and channel spacing, and disables all interactions for far apart events.

Large event + roving ENG crew

  • During a large event with an ENG crew visiting each Zone, a dedicated Zone for the crew can be created and all interactions to other Zones can be enabled. This ensures frequencies in this Zone won't interfere with all other frequencies in the venue.

Festival

  • For a festival with many bands, separate Zones for each band keeps the coordination list clean and small. Each Zone can have multiple Groups (IEMs, Backline, Mics, etc.) for organization.

Large college football game

  • For a game requiring multiple frequencies for sideline comms, broadcast mics/IFB and ENG/press, different zones can be created. For example, the Near and Far sidelines can be different Zones, considering channel spacing but avoiding intermod interference.
