The DCN Automatic Camera Control software version (LBB 3588) which
uses a DCN control PC uses two user-created files that contain important
information about the installed hardware configurations and about dele-
gates’ names. These files are:
•Installation file- containing information about the channel assignment
and the seat numbers that have been assigned to all microphones and
cameras connected to the DCN. These seat numbers are assigned using
the System Installation software (LBB 3585).
•Names file -containing details about the names of and details of partici-
pating delegates, and which seat number they occupy. These names are
assigned using the Delegate Database software (LBB 3580).
The seat numbers defined in System Installation are used to assign cameras
to delegates’ DCN contribution units. All information and settings defined
in the DCN Automatic Camera Control software are added to the installa-
tion file.
NOTE: An installation file must be open before camera installation is possi-
ble. However, the DCN Automatic Camera Control software can be started
without an installation file being open.
NOTE: The stand-alone version of the DCN Automatic Camera Control soft-
ware does not use other DCN software modules.
NOTE: For specifying an installation file from the DCN Startup main window,
refer to the System Installation user manual.
