Audio System Board
Mic Audio ALC Enable/Disable DIP Switch (S1)
DIP switch S1 on the Audio System Board is used to
independently enable or disable each microphone's
automatic level control (ALC) circuit. The switch has four
(4) positions, one for each mic that may be connected to the
Enhanced Audio Enclosure.
An Audio System Board ships from the factory with all
mic audio ALC circuits enabled. As shown in Figure 2, this
is accomplished by setting all four S1 switch positions to
"ON" or "CLOSED". Table 2 lists each switch position and
its corresponding microphone.
q
Normally, mic audio ALC should not be disabled.
However, if required, disable a mic's ALC by
setting the corresponding DIP switch position to
"OFF" or "OPEN". See LBI-39100 for Enhanced
Audio Enclosure disassembly and Audio System
Board access instructions.

Digital Pots Settings
To provide computer-controlled level settings, the
Enhanced Audio Enclosure's audio input and audio output
circuits incorporate 256-position digitally-controlled
potentiometers. These digital pots, located on the Audio
System Board, allow adjustment of the Enhanced Audio
Enclosure's audio levels via the PC. Adjustments include
dispatcher-adjustable audio levels such as headset sidetone
volumes and system-level adjustments such as line input and
output levels to and from the CEC/IMC Digital Audio
Switch.
With the exception of the dispatcher's headset sidetone
volume adjustments, none of the digital pots pro vide volume
adjustments for the speaker or headset earphone audio levels
during normal dispatch operations. Speaker and headset
volume adjustments are accomplished at the respective
speaker or headset via mechanical pots. Also see the
following note.
NOTE
Communication module volume changes at the C3
Maestro effect CEC/IMC CIM line output levels,
not the digital pots within the Enhanced Audio
Enclosure.
Fifteen (15) dual digital potentiometer chips (integrated
circuits) are located on the Audio System Board for a total
of thirty (30) individual pots; there are no mechanical
potentiometers. All audio level adjustments areaccomplished via software. See Table 3. A dispatcher may
adjust the operator's sidetone digital pot using dedicated
keyboard keystrokes <Alt> <Vol ↑ > and <Alt> <Vol ↓ > at
the Dispatch Keyboard.
All of the digital pots initially power-up with the wiper
in a 50% or centered position. The microcontroller on the
Audio System Board then immediately loads each pot in
accordance with its respective setting stored in a "working"
area of a serial EEPROM chip on the board. The EEPROM
also contains an unchangeable "default" digital pot storage
area. When shipped from the factory, the working area
matches the default area.
Digital pots may be adjusted using the C3 Maestro
application program via one of its note cards. This function
changes the settings stored in the EEPROM's working area.
Normally, this note card function should only be accessed
by the installation and/or service personnel. To change a
digital pot's setting, the following procedure may be
performed after the console's installation is complete and ithas been powered-up:
1. From the Dispatch Keyboard, simultaneously press
the <Alt> (common control function) and the # (on
numeric keypad) keys. "Digital Pot Num ber: ?"
is displayed in the lower left-hand side of the C3
Maestro's display.
2. From the numeric keypad, enter the number of the
digital pot to be changed. See Table 3. The digital
pot's existing setting is displayed.
3. Press the ↑ (increase) or ↓ (decrease) key to change
the current setting. Changes are saved in the
EEPROM's working area as they are made.
4. Press <Esc> to exit.
SPEAKER ASSEMBLY
Normally, a Speaker Assembly used with the Enhanced
Audio Enclosure is configured at the factory with its
minimum v olume f eatur e ena bled and it s maximu m volume
output power set to 2 watts. This configuration is
accomplished by setting two positions on a 4-position DIP
switch located on the Speaker Amp Board within the
Speaker Assembly.
NOTE
The following information lists the normal factory
settings and the optional settings which are
available.
Speaker Amp Board
At each Speaker Assembly, a 4-position DIP switch
identified as SW1 is located on the Speaker Amp Board.
One position is used to enable or disable the minimum
volume level feature. A second position allows setting of the
maximum volume level to either 2 or 5 watts of output
power. Factory settings are shown in Figure 3. These
switches have no effect on hea dset earphone output le vels.
Currently, the other two DIP switch positions on SW1 are
not used.
NOTE
NOTE
SW1 may have a tape seal placed over the switches
to prevent changes.
Minimum Volume Level DIP Switch (SW1 Position 1)
When SW1 position 1 is "OFF" or "OPEN", the
minimum volume level feature is enabled. This is the factory
setting. With this setting, audio from the speaker cannot be
completely turned off by rotating the volume control on the
Speaker Assembly's front panel fully counterclockwise.

Specifically, with the volume control fully
counterclockwise and a nomimal audio level of 436
millivolts rms at a frequency of 1kHz from the Enhanced
Audio Enclosure, the audio output level from the speaker
will not drop below approximately 0.38 milliwatts or 55
millivolts rms across the 8-ohm speaker. This wattage figure
assumes SW1 position 2 is also "OFF" or "OPEN",
selecting the 2-watt maximum volume level. With SW1
position 2 selecting 5-watts, the minimum volume level is
approximately 1.25 milliwatts or 100 millivolts across the 8ohm speaker.
When SW1 position 1 is "ON" or "CLOSED", the
recommended, as it should be adequate in nearly all dispatch
environments. The 2-watt setting is selected by setting the
switch "OPEN" or "OFF". When the switch is "CLOSED"
or "ON", the maximum output power is increased to
approximately 5 watts.
Both wattage figures assume the volume control on the
Speaker Assembly's front panel is set at maximum (fully
clockwise) and a nominal audio signal input level of 436
millivolts rms at a frequency of 1 kHz is applied to the
Speaker Assembly.

CEC/IMC INTERCONNECTIONS
The C3 Maestro console interfaces to the CEC/IMC via
a full-duplex serial control data link and a 4-wire audio
connection for the select audio and microphone link. In
addition, each unselect speaker at the console requires an
additional 2-wire connection from the CEC/IMC. Also, if
the console is interfaced to a Call Director for Call Director
telephone patch operations, an additional 4-wire audio link
between the C3 Maestro and the CEC/IMC is required. See
Figures 1 and 6 and Table 5.
As shown in Figures 1 and 6, all CEC/IMC
interconnections are made via Concentrator Cards. These
cards are located at the back of the CEC/IMC cabinet.
Control data connections are made via Data Concentrator
Cards and audio connections are made via Audio
Concentrator Cards. Typically, as shown in Figure 6, these
connections are extended out of the CEC/IMC cabinet via
Telco cables and terminations are actually made at punch
blocks located external of the CEC/IMC cabinet.
CEC/IMC Concentrator Card pin-out details are listed
on the customer-specific system documentation print-outs.
These print-outs are included with the CEC/IMC when it
ships from the factory. See the CEC/IMC Digital Audio

Control Data Link
Overview
Either an RS-422 (four-wire) or an RS-232 (three-wire)
full-duplex serial control data link may be employed
between the console and the CIM within the CEC/IMC.
Since RS-422 interfacing is superior to RS-232, PCs used
within the C3 Maestro console application normally ship
from the factory with an RS-422 serial port provided for this
purpose. RS-232 has poorer noise performance than RS-422
and therefore, it should never be used for cable runs more
than 50 feet (15.2 meters) in length. RS-422 connections
may be up to 4000 feet (1219 meters) in length.
If required for a remote console installation, full-duplex
4-wire data modems can be used between the C3 Maestro
and the CEC/IMC. Typically, the PC-to-modem and
modem-to-CEC/IMC interconnections must be made via
RS-232 interconnections since many data modems do not
provide RS-422 hook-ups. These RS-232 interconnections
should also not exceed 50 feet. See the following
subsections for additional remote console wiring and modem
configuration details.
At the C3 Maestro, RS-422/RS-232 serial control data
connections terminate at the PC's serial COM port.
Normally, COM1 is utilized for CEC/IMC interfacing. This
serial port is normally provided by a plug-in RS-422 board
inside the PC as described in the following section.
RS-422 Interfacing (Co-Located Hook-Ups)
In most cases, the PC used in the C3 Maestro console
system is not equipped with a main ("mother") board
RS-422 capable serial COM port. Therefore, a plug-in
RS-422 capable interface board is installed in one of the
PC's internal expansion slots and utilized for CEC/IMC
interfacing. If the plug-in RS-422 board's serial port is
configured as COM1 (normal factory configuration), the
PC's main board COM1 port is disab led to p revent conflicts.
Likewise, if the plug-in RS-422 board's serial port is
configured as COM2, the PC's main board COM2 port is
disabled. Depending upon the type of PC used, disabling of
the main board's COM port is done via either a DIP switch,
jumper, or a BIOS set-up program. For COM port
enable/disable configuration details, refer to the section
entitled "

Normally, a pre-wired 100-foot (30.5 meters) cable is
supplied with the console equipment package for RS-422
control data interconnections between the CEC/IMC and a
co-located C3 Maestro console. The cable's part number is
19B804083P3. It has a female DB-25 connector on one end
for mating to the RS-422 male DB-25 connector at the PC.
The other end is "pig-tailed" (not terminated) so the cable's
24-gauge solid wires can be punched down to the correct
terminals at the required CEC/IMC punch block.
q
If using the supplied control data cable, mate its
female DB-25 to the PC's RS-422 male DB-25
connector, route it to the CEC/IMC, shorten the
cable as required, and punch the wires to the
correct terminals. See Table 4 or the cable's

RS-232 Interfacing (Remote Console Hook-Ups Via
4-Wire Modems And RS-232 Interconnections)
When the C3 Maestro is installed at a remote location
from the CEC/IMC, a serial control data link must be
established via RS-232 connections and 4-wire full-duplex
9600 baud data modems. Since the C3 Maestro requires a
dedicated or continuous serial link (non-dial-up), a 4-wire
leased line (or equivalent) meeting 3002 data grade
specifications must be employed between the CEC/IMC and
the C3 Maestro in a remote console installation.
q
If cable 19B802083P3 is not used for RS-422
hook-ups, see Figures 4 and 6A and/or the
manufacturer's documentation for COM port
connector pin-out details. Fabricate a cable as
required and then use it to interconnect the
C3 Maestro's RS-422 control data COM port to the
appropriate CEC/IMC Data Concentrator Card as
required. Shielded cabling is recommended. Per
RS-422 specifications, cable length should be
limited to 4000 feet (1219 meters) or less.
Figure 6B shows typical control data interconnections
for a remote console installation using RS-232 connections
and full-duplex 4-wire modems. At the CEC/IMC Data
Concentrator Card, RS-232 connections are made at J13, not
J12. Observe all notes listed in the figure if wiring aninstallation of this type. Recommended modem settings are:

Audio Links
Audio Concentrator Cards at the back of the CEC/IMC
cabinet provide audio connections at the CEC/IMC. Like the
control data connections, audio connections are normally
extended out of the CEC/IMC cabinet via Telco cable(s) and
line terminations are actually made at punch blocks. See
Figure 6A. See the customer-specific system documentation
print-outs for Concentrator Card connector pin-out details.
Table 5 shows line requirements between the C3
Maestro and the CEC/IMC for each audio input or output 2wire 600-ohm twisted pair. Note that two (2) Enhanced
Audio Enclosure output pairs, Line 2 out and Line 3 out are
never used. These audio output lines are provided for future
expansion use.
At the C3 Maestro, audio connections terminate at the
DB-25 connector on the Enhanced Audio Enclosure's rear
panel. This connector is labeled "LINES 1-4" . Its pin-out is
shown in Figures 5 and 6A and Table 12. It has female
contacts; therefore, the required mating connector is a male
DB-25.
Normally, a pre-wired 100-foot (30.5 meters) cable is
supplied with the console equipment package for audio
interconnections between the Enhanced Audio Enclosure
and the CEC/IMC. This 8-pair shielded cable's part number
is 19B804083P2. It has a male DB-25 connector on one end
for mating to the Enhanced Aud io Enclo sure's " LINES 1-4"
female DB-25 connector. The other end is "pig-tailed" (not
terminated) so the cable's 24-guage solid wires can be
punched down to the correct terminals at the required
CEC/IMC's punch block.

Relay Outputs (if used)
Form-C relay contacts (single-pole double-throw) are
available from the Enhanced Audio Enclosure for external
device control. Contact connections are made at the screwterminal type terminal block on the rear panel labeled
"RELAYS". Even though these relays are also controlled
from the console’s dispatch keyboard, they are not the same
as and they should not be confused with the relays within the
CEC/IMC utilized for auxiliary I/O interfacing.
As shown in Table 25, the first relay (relay 1) is
activated when the console is keyed (PTTed). During the
key, the relay's common and normally-open contacts close
and its common and normally-closed contacts open. The
second relay's (relay 2) common and normally-open contacts
close while <Alt><F10> is depressed at the Dispatch
Keyboard. Like the first relay, this relay's action is
considered "momentarily" as it is only in the active state
when the <Alt><F10> keys are depressed. The third relay's
(relay 3) contacts toggle open/close at an <Alt><F9>
keystroke from the Dispatch Keyboard. The other relays are
not supported by software.
q
As required, connect the relay contact outputs to
external equipment. See Table 25 and Figure 9.
Specified contact rating for all relays is 0.75 amps

Call Director (if equipped)
As shown in Figure 1, all C3 Maestro-to-Call Director
interconnections at the console are made at the Enhanced
Audio Enclosure's connector labeled "CALL DIR". A Call
Director telephone patch also requires an additional 4-wire
balanced line between the Enhanced Audio Enclosure and
the console’s CIM within the CEC/IMC. At the CEC/IMC,
CIM audio channel/line four (4) is used for Call Director
interfacing. CD control data interfacing is handled over the
existing RS-232/RS-422 serial control data interface
between the PC and the CEC/IMC. Therefore, no additional
control data link must be added to support Call Director
patch equipment. Refer to Figures 1, 5, 6 and 10 for
interconnection details and the following discussion on
CEC/IMC line audio line requirements.
Console-to-CEC/IMC Audio Interconnections
All CEC/IMC line audio in to and out of a C3 Maestro
dispatch console system enters and leaves via the DB-25
connector labeled "LINES 1 - 4" on the Enhanced Audio
Enclosure's rear panel. If the console is connected to a Call
Director, Line 4 between the Enhanced Audio Enclosure and
the CEC/IMC must be established for CD audio routing
between the console and the CEC/IMC. In this case, the
third unselect speaker audio is not available.
Table 7 describes the audio signals between the
Enhanced Audio Enclosure and the CIM within the
CEC/IMC. The descriptions are relative to the Enhanced
Audio Enclosure. All signals on these 600-ohm pairs have
typical levels between -5 dBm to 0 dBm.
q
If not accomplished in the previous instructions in
this manual, install a 4-wire balanced line (two
pairs) between the required CEC/IMC Audio
Concentrator Card and Enhanced Audio Enclosure.
Refer to the section entitled "

Serial Ports' Settings
Normally, the PC's COM1 serial port is utilized for
CEC/IMC control data interfacing. The baud rate of this port
may be set to operate at 19,200 or 9600. The 19,200 setting
is recommended for all co-located console hook-ups. The
9600 baud setting is normally required when a data modem
is employed between the console and the CEC/IMC in a
remote console installation.
q
If necessary, use the Editor program to change the
COM1 baud rate . Save the change to the hard disk
drive. 19,200 baud is the factory (default) setting.
See LBI-39056 for additional details. The
CEC's/IMC's CIM has auto-baud sensing;
therefore, no CIM changes are required when a
baud rate change is made here.
Normally, the PC's COM2 serial port is utilized for
Enhanced Audio Enclosure control data interfacing. In this
case the port operates at 9600 baud. This setting is fixed in
the PC's software and in the Enhanced Audio Enclosure's
firmware. It cannot be changed.

CEC/IMC firmware/software version 4.x and earlier
provides 30 total auxiliary I/O events and version 5.x and
later provides 255 total auxiliary I/O events.
At the console, no auxiliary I/O-related configurations
are necessary; all auxiliary I/O configurations are
accomplished at the CEC/IMC Manager. Basically, these
configurations include, on a per auxiliary I/O event basis
(non-inclusive listing):
defining the event for input or output operation
(event type)
•
defining the event’s CEC/IMC Controller Board
utilized (device type and device assignment
number) and the I/O bit number used on this
Controller Board
•
including or not including each console in the
event’s “console mask”
•
defining the event’s active state as either high or
low
•
for an input event, defining a text message which is
sent to the console(s) when the event is triggered
(when it transitions to the active state)
•
for an output event, defining if it will operate with
moment ary or toggle action, and defining which
console keystroke or other trigger signal controls
the event
Refer to the appropriate manual listed in Table 11
and/or the CEC/IMC Manager’s on-line help for
configuration details. Also see LBI-38938.
If a C3 Maestro console is granted monitoring/control
capability of auxiliary I/O events via “console mask”
definitions, it can monitor input event transitions and it can
control output event transitions. For auxiliary input events,
text messages display in the bottom left corner of the
console’s display. Auxiliary output events are controlled via
<Alt><F1> thru <Alt><F8> keystrokes from the console’s
dispatch keyboard.
As previously stated, all C3 Maestro application
software is installed on the PC's hard disk drive at the
factory. Refer to publication SRN-1000-xx which is
included with a software upgrade package if a re-installation
