CITY OF SHAKOPEE
Memorandum
TO: Mayor and City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Ed Schwaesdall, Fire Chief
SUBJECT: 2007 Audio Visual System Improvements Authorization
DATE: January 9,2007
INTRODUCTION:
The Council is asked to authorize quotes to be taken for the second phase of an audio-
video system upgrade for Station 51 TraininglMeeting Room.
BACKGROUND:
Elsewhere on the January 16th agenda, the City Council is asked to approve a proposal
from Clarity Audio Video Systems, to provide and install a series of upgrades for the
training/meeting room at the Vierling Drive Fire Station. If approved by Council, that
would include two video projectors, and cabling and rewiring of the sound and video
systems, including software, from Lya1com.
At the January 2nd City Council meeting, Council gave direction to provide additional
information regarding the Lya1corn/Clarity purchase (which is attached to that memo),
because this was not specifically identified as a line item in the equipment purchase.
If approved by Council, phase 2 of this upgrade would provide for a motorized projector
screen, which is critical for the type of training that we do in the Fire Department. This
would be the second screen in the room. Training scenarios require the need for a
separate second screen to show multiple views for incident command. In addition, the
damage to the original screen, which was installed at the time of the construction of
Station 51, will be fixed. Over the years, it has sustained water damage during a roof
leak. There will also be new video connections.
Phase 2 would also replace the current four ceiling speakers which cannot be heard
throughout the room, with eight new speakers. The bid would provide for wireless
microphones, and the ability to coordinate all AV features with a touch pad wireless
control system.
Finally, a lectern would be provided to allow lap tops to access the training system. This
lap top capability will allow Power Point usage. Quite frankly, the old system is not
dependable for use even with VHS and other older technology.
In response to a question from the Council, this would be utilized often by the Fire
Department for training. This is needed onsite, and other potential locations such as the
police training room or City Hall are not feasible. Station 51 is used regularly for Fire
Fighter I training. The various schools which provide FFI classes rotate to various
departments, and Shakopee hosts frequently.
At the January 2nd meeting, Councilmember Lehman requested that there be a
presentation on the types of training to be provided. A later clarification confirmed that
this was not so much the training programs, but rather the type of equipment to be
purchased. Unfortunately, because of events with the Fire Department the week of
January 8th, and the training officer and my inability to attend the City Council meeting
on January 16t\ I will have to attempt to answer that question here.
A FATS simulator is budgeted to be installed at the SCALE training facility. The
question was raised as to whether the FATS (Fire Arms Training and Safety) program
could be used instead of, or to enhance the training scenarios that we are anticipating for
instant command and other issues at the fire training room. City Administrator McNeill
spoke with the Joint Regional Training Facility Coordinator Rob Boe and put that
question to him. In short, Mr. Boe said that it is possible, but he really did not know all
of the possibilities that FATS can offer. There are several different providers, and some
of the software can be individualized enough that the trainer can shoot street scenes in a
particular community to incorporate into the system.
It is quite possible that it could be used in conjunction with incident command training.
However, he also said that this is an emerging technology, and this is only one aspect of
what a training room scenario might utilize. The Shakopee Fire Department Training
Room would also be used for everything from first aid to pump operation training, and so
while the FATS Simulator might be used for fire department type oftraining, it can't
replace everything. Mr. Boe told the Administrator that he will be meeting with someone
from the State Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management on
January 16th, and would get more information from him at that time.
BUDGET IMP ACT:
Fundingfor this purchase would come from the Fire Department's equipment line item in
2007. While not specifically identified as a line item, sufficient funding exists within that
line item.
RELATIONSHIP TO VISIONING:
This supports Goal D. - Vibrant, resilient and stable.
ACTION REQUIRED:
If the Council concurs, it should, by motion, direct the Fire Chief to seek competitive
quotes for Phase 2 of the audio visual upgrade of Station 51's TraininglMeeting room.

powerful wireless control solution that's easy to hold and intuitive to use. True Crestron
touchpanelversatility is afforded through a 3.5" active-matrix color touchscreen display,
producing stunning 16-bit graphics with 3D effects, high-res images, dynamic graphics'and text,
PNG translucency and animation. A stylus is even included for use with the on-screen keyboard,
conveniently stowed in its own storage slot.
Wi-Fi Wireless
Integrated 802.11b Wi-Fi technology delivers secure, high"speed 2-way wireless performance,
communicating with Crestron control systems, computers, and media servers via a wireless
Ethernet access point. Fully bidirectional behavior means the TPMC-4X is perfect for searching
through tracks and titles on your music server complete with the dynamic display of cover art
graphics. Of course, true-feedback is afforded for every connected device be it audio, video,
satellite radio, lighting, security, or climate control.
Wireless Video
Viewing security cameras and other video sources is possible right on the touchscreen. The
TPMC-4X includes built-in support for wireless streaming video from a variety of 3rd-party Web
cameras and servers using the motion-JPEG format.
Backlit Hard Buttons
To complement its touchpanel with tactile pushbutton control, the TPMC-4X includes a 5-way
thumbpad controller, side-mounted toggle wheel, and 13 additional pushbuttons. Every button
is fully programmable to support quick access to functions ranging from simple volume
adjustment and channel selection to on-screen menu navigation or even pan/tilt camera control.
Adjustable button backlighting provides a striking appearance while facilitating operation in a
darkened home theater or boardroom.
Li-Ion Rechargeable Batteries
A fast-charging Lithium Ion battery pack provides long-lasting wireless operation without the
"memory" issues typical of other rechargeable batteries. Adjustable standby helps preserve
battery life, and the included docking station provides charging convenience with an elegant
appearance.

I Product Description
Crestron 2-Series Control Systems are the brain of a complete integrated AV or automation
solution. Every audio, video, and environmental element of the home, boardroom, classroom, or
command center becomes integrated and accessible through the control system. Crestron 2-
Series control systems are unmatched for power, performance and scalability, providing the
ideal choice for today's demanding control applications.
The CP2 is a compact control system designed for small to medium sized residential and
commercial control applications. Three built-in COM ports, eight IR/Serial ports, eight I/O
Versiports, and eight isolated relays provide for control of video projectors, plasma displays,
switchers, DVD players, screens, lifts, and much more. Additional control ports may be added
using Cresnet expansion modules, or by "slaving" an additional CP2 or other control processor.
2-Series Engine
At the heart of the CP2 is the powerful 32-bit Freescale ColdFire@ processor. Crestron's
exclusive enhanced real-time operating system makes the CP2 the fastest, most reliable control
system available.
Cresnet@
Cresnet is the communications backbone for many Crestron touchpanels, keypads, lighting
controls, and other devices. The Cresnet bus is a simple, yet flexible 4-wire network that
provides rock-solid bidirectional communication for numerous Cresnet devices.
Cresnet Slave Mode
Selectable Cresnet Slave Mode enables the CP2 to be configured as a Cresnet slave device,
effectively transforming it .into a Cresnet expansion module. Such flexibility can offer a cost-
effective solution for system expansion, providing a host of additional control ports in a single
module.
