AC POWER AND UPS EQUIPMENT

All consoles require 120 or 230 Vac (47 to 63 Hz)
power sources. As a minimum, each outlet should be
circuit-breaker protected per local building codes.
UPS protection is optional. Maximum required UPS
wattage rating for a single console system should be based
on the required maximum sums of the Audio Tower (200
watts max.), the PC's computer (per manufacturer's
specifications) and the PC's video display monitor (per
manufacturer's specifications).
POWER-UP PROCEDURE
The following C3 Maestro power-up procedure is
recommended:
1. If the PC and/or monitor are equipped with a
voltage selector switch, verify the switches are
positioned correctly. The power supply within the
Audio Tower automatically switches itself and
therefore no voltage selection switch exists.
2. Verify all power switches are in the off position.
3. Connect the PC, video display monitor and the
Audio Tower to a 120 or 230 Vac source. Some
computers are equipped with a receptacle on their
rear panel for the monitor's ac power connection.
Refer to the PC and monitor documentation as
necessary. Extension cords should not be used
with the C3 Maestro console system.
4. Verify all equipment is properly grounded.
5. Power-up the Audio Tower.
6. Power-up the PC and its monitor.
7. Continue with the software installation and set-up
procedures that follow.
SOFTWARE INSTALLATION ANDSET-UP PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT NOTE
Unless otherwise noted, all procedures in this
manual should be performed in the order
presented.

PC CMOS SET-UP PROGRAM

C3 Maestro software is factory-installed on the PC's
hard disk drive and the software is configured properly for
standard installations. Therefore, during a typical console
configuration, the information in this section may be
bypassed.
All PCs used with the C3 Maestro store start-up
configurations in CMOS memory. This information is read
by the computer's BIOS and it may be changed by
executing a set-up program during the PC's boot process.
Execute the PC's set-up program only if a built-in (main
board) COM1 port must be disabled/enabled or if
documentation included with the PC deems it necessary for
some other reason.
NOTE
Time and date will be correctly set by the
CEC/IMC Manager (MOM PC) when the console
is on-line with the CEC/IMC.

Hewlett-Packard Vectra 25N & 486SX/25

Typically, the set-up program is started by pressing
<F2> when prompted with "For Setup press F2
now" during the boot process. COM1 is disabled by setting
"Serial Ports/Port A" to "Off". An HP 486SX/25
computer should also have its "Serial Port B" set to
"COM2 2F8H INT3". Be sure to save the change(s) before
rebooting/resetting (typically via pressing <F3>).

Data General Dasher 386SX

This PC's set-up program is started by pressing
<Ctrl><Alt><Ins> during the boot process. There is no
need to disable COM1 since the built-in port supports both
RS-422 and RS-232.
Experience has shown these computers can lose their
CMOS settings on rare occasions during power-ups.

Memory Relocation: Enabled
The Logic Board will not function properly if the
"Memory Relocation" setting is disabled.
