The CS 5 is a fully modular, highly flexible conference system. Using Ethernet technology, it provides maximum secu- rity and excellent digital audio quality. The CS 5 components can be used for any conference system from simple se- tups to the most complex systems including ID card identification; three-way voting or five-way polling; interpretation of up to 63 languages; and infrared transmission of up to seven languages. The CS 5 is extremely easy to wire, pro- gram, set up, and expand.

All microphone stations are connected to the CS5 BU Base Stration in a closed-circuit Ethernet configuration so even if one component fails, all other microphone stations will remain functional. The Base Unit also provides all the circuitry required to drive the CS5 IRT1 and CS5 IRT2 infrared radiators. The CS5 IRR7 infrared receivers provide seven selec- table language channels. In addition, the CS5 BU contains interfaces for a range of external devices including mixers, wireless microphone systems, recording devices, CD players, etc.

The system provides 64 audio channels (0 - 63) that can be assigned as required to delegate, chairperson, or inter- preter stations. Channel 0 is permanently assigned as the floor channel (sum of all microphone stations, external mi- crophones (unless routed otherwise) and line inputs). Channels 0-6 are routed to the infrared outputs. Channels 0-3 are available at the headphone outputs on the CS5 DU microphone station. Channels 0-63 are available at the head- phone outputs on the CS5 VU microphone station.

Important:

•To avoid malfunctioning due to conflicting signals, use only a single CS5 BU Base Unit in any CS5 con- ference system.

•To avoid data loss or corruption, malfunctioning, or damage to the system, never make any changes to the wiring or operate any control on any system component, or disconnect the system from power while a software update is in progress.

Note:

•For instructions on setting up your CS 5 Conference System from wiring to powering up, refer to the "Getting Started Quickly" guide that you should have received together with your shipment. If the "Getting Started Quickly" guide or any other component is missing, contact your AKG Distributor immediately.

•This User Manual contains detailed information on how to set up each CS 5 component.
