BOSCH Control & Power Supply Unit (CCS-CU) for Conference

Features

The CU can be setup to operate standalone without the need for an operator. The following 5 modes can be chosen using a rotary control on the unit’s top panel:

• Open mode – allows selection of one to four microphones (excluded chairmen microphones) which can be simultaneously active
• Open mode with auto-switch-off – allows selection of one to four microphones (excluded chairmen microphones) which can be simultaneously active. If the delegate does not speak for 30 seconds, microphones are automatically switched off
• Override mode – delegates can override each other simply by activating their microphones. Only one microphone can be active at any one time. (Note: In override mode, delegates cannot override chairmen)
• Chairman only mode – only chairmen can speak. Delegate microphones cannot be activated, even when a chairman is not speaking
• Test mode –checks if system connections are correct. All microphone light rings and contribution unit LEDs light up to indicate that units are properly connected

- Supplies power for up to 50 contribution units
The CU has two trunk outputs for the loop-through connection of contribution units. It is possible to connect 25 contribution units to each trunk output, with a maximum system cable length of 100 m (109.3 yards).

- Provides control for up to 150 contribution units
Up to 3 CUs can be used together in a discussion system to power and control a maximum of 150 contribution units. In this configuration a single CU acts as a master controller for the entire system.

The built-in monitor loudspeaker and headphone socket allow the conference to be monitored.

• External PA system – for transmitting the proceedings to an audience in the same room or an adjacent room
• Tape recorder – for external recording and playing back meetings and discussions
