DESCRIPTION

Digital control unit for an almost unlimited number of wireless
microphone units with loudspeaker. Integrated diversity combiner
for a maximum of 3 or 9 smart link receiving modules. Depending
on the version of the MCW-D 50 control unit a maximum of 3 (e.g.
2 delegates and 1 chairman) or 9 microphone units (e.g. 7 delegates
and 2 chairmen) can be activated simultaneously.
There is a constant status inquiry, monitoring or control due to the
data connection to the microphone units. Individual microphone
units can be activated via the RS 232 serial interface. The complete
discussion system can be switched off via a control command or by
pressing the “Stand-by” button on the front. The 9 LEDs on the
front indicate the assigned transmission channels of the micro­phones. To increase the security of the system, the control unit can
operate in the “security mode” i.e. the control unit only operates
with microphone units which have the same encryption key. In
addition to this, the audio data are encrypted.
