CHAPTER 1
Intr oduction
General Description
RTS Cronus is a 32-port digital matrix intercom in 2 RU (rack units). Based upon an advanced DSP (Digital Signal Processor)
architecture, Cronus has the ability to link up to four (4) units into a single 128 port matrix. Through the use of standard video
coaxial cable, the maximum distance between the first and last Cronus system can be up to 300ft., and still appear as a single
matrix. However, when using the Fiber Option card, the distance is increased up to 15 kilometers nominally. When connected
as a single matrix, the individual Cronus control remains autonomous and independent at each matrix for the hi ghest
reliability.
Features
USB Connectivity
Advanced DSP
Modular Architecture
Redundant Power Supply
Convenient front panel access, as well as traditional rear access for system
programming. Note, you may use either the front panel access or the rear panel access,
but not both at the same time.
NOTE: The USB drivers for Cronus are installed with the AZedit software. You
can find the folder at C:\Telex\AZedit\V20606. The drivers are bundled in
version 2.06.06 or later.
Digital signal processing designed to support audio signal processing on all 32 ports
(inputs).
The modular architecture allows for port expansion from 8 to 32 ports giving each
user expandable systems in the field.
Each chassis is powered by two power supplies, either of which can sufficiently power
all the equipment ALONE. This provides constant power and disaster recovery even
with the failure of one power supply.

4 Introduction Cronus
Differences between Cronus and ADAM
Cronus ADAM
Most practical for small to medium systems.
In small to medium-sized broadcast company, Cronus would
be used like an ADAM.
Cronus is scalable - can add up to four systems maximum to
the original configuration.
Most practical for more complex systems because the
number of users is much higher.
Uses ASIC technology
ADAM has both a redundant power supply and a redundant
Master Controller card.
Cronus has a redundant power supply.
Has one (1) USB port with front and rear access.
Has capability for an Ethernet connection
Cronus has individual data drivers, meaning the address
does not need to be set at the keypanel.
Front and Rear Panel Controls and Connections
There are two Cronus backcards, an MDR backcard and an RJ-12 backcard. You can have up to four backcards installed on
Cronus. You can have any combination of backcards on the Cronus, too (for example, you can have two RJ-12 backcards and
two MDR backcards
FIGURE 1. Controls, Connections, and Cronus backcard.
NOTE: For more information on a VOIP option card (RVON-C) for the Cronus, See “RVON-C RTS Voice Over
Network for Cronus” on page 41.

Cronus Introduction 5
1. ENC1 – This knob allows you to select a menu item, scroll through menus or exit the display menu.
2. ENC2 – This knob allows you to select a menu item, scroll through menus or exit the display menu.
NOTE: Only when you are in the Crosspoint Status menu do the left and right knob perform separate functions. The
right knob adjusts the output port, while the left knob adjusts the import port.
3. Display Panel – LCD display showing menu options.
4. USB Connection – There are two (2) USB connections on the Cronus: one on the front panel and one on the rear
panel (J7). The Cronus system can use the USB port to connect with a PC. This allows for the most flexibility when
planning where to use the system. In a rack unit, where the back is inaccessible, or on a desktop where the back is
accessible.
NOTE: Only one USB connector can be used at a time.
5. Power 1& Power 2 – The power source indicator is a green LED light displaying the power is on. The Cronus has a
redundant power source. This means there are two (2) power su pp lies, so it power supply 1 fails, power supply 2
takes over powering the system.
6. Keypanel Ports (backcard) – One Cronus frame can have 32 ports through the use of either an RJ-12 backcard or an
MDR backcard. In all, the Cronus system supports a maximum of 128 ports available for keypanels. You can also mix
and match the backcards (for example, you can have 2 MDR backcards with 2 RJ-12 backcards on the same frame).
The MDR backcard is primarily used to connect the three compatible breakout panels. XCP-32-DB9, XCP-48-RJ45
and the XCP-48-Telco (See “Breakout Panels” on page 85).
NOTE: Using an MDR backcard (CRONUS MDR), you can utilize a DB-9 breakout panel. (XCP-32-DB9 BP).
Once DB-9 breakout panel can support all four (4) AIO cards within the Cronus.
7. LINE 1 – Cronus has two (2) power sources; a primary source (LINE 1) and a redundant power source (LINE 2).
Both power sources are running at the same time, so that if the primary source fails, the redundant source is able to
power the Cronus.
8. Fans – There are two (2) fans to cool the power supplies.
9. LINE 2 – Cronus has two (2) power sources; a primary source (LINE 1) and a redundant power source (LINE 2).
Both power sources are running at the same time, so that if the primary source fails, the redundant source is able to
power the Cronus.
10. DB-9 Serial Connection – DB-9 serial connection to the PC from Cronus.There are six (6) DB-9 serial ports, however
only five (5) are used (J1, J2[reserved], J3, J4, and J5) and one is undefined.
11. USB Connection – USB connection to the PC from Cronus.
12. RJ-45 Connection – RJ-45 connection to the PC from the Cronus.
13. DB-25 Connection – General Input Output connection.
NOTE: The pin out of this connection is not the same as Zeus, ADAM or ADAM CS.
14. Coaxial and Fiber Connection – There are four (4) coaxial or two (2) fiber connections used to connect the frames
together, see Figure 5 for the configuration illustration. Requires optional licensing firmware. Contact Bosch Security
Systems, Inc customer service for more information. When contacting customer service, be sure to have the MAC
Address for each unit. For information on how to obtain the MAC Address, see “Finding the MAC Address for
Cronus” on page 33.

10 Introduction Cronus
Determining the Master System From the Slave Systems
By default, Cronus is set to operate in standalone mode. Y ou will need a license file to link Cronus frames together. In order to
link two (2) or more Cronus systems together, each must have the optional linking firmware installed. To purchase the
firmware, contact RTS sales.
Setting the master frame is done through the display panel m e nu as well as cabling the frames together.
To configure the master frame, do the following:
1. From the display panel of the frame you want to configure, tap the ENC1 knob.
SET FRAME ID appears.
2. Tap the ENC1 knob once.
SLAVE appears.
3. Tap ENC1.
AUTO CONFIG appears.
4. Turn the ENC1 knob to select Auto Config, Frame ID 2, Frame ID 3, or Frame ID 4.
NOTE: Once you have set the Master frame you can set the rest of the frames by using autoconfig.
T o cable Cronus, use the coaxial connectors located on the back panel (see Figure 2 on page 6). On the first frame connect the
two (2) outside coax ports to the two (2) inside coax ports on frame 2. For more information, see Figure 5 on page 11. This
determines the master frame and the first slave. Repeat this procedure with the two (2) remaining frames.

Cronus and the AIO-16 card are the only devices that presently support Vox. Vox refers to voice activation. This means once
audio is passed through Cronus or AIO-16 at a preset threshold level, the audio lines are open for conversation between ports.
With Cronus, you can set the Vox threshold from the front panel or you can set it through AZedit. In AZedit there are two(2)
ways to access the Vox Settings window.
NOTE: AZedit must be at version 2.09.0 or later.

RVON-C
RTS Voice Over Network for Cr onus
Description of the RVON-C Voice Over Network Card
Installed directly into the Cronus Intercom frame, the RVON-C provides voice over IP (Internet Protocol) communications for
the RTS Cronus intercom system. In general, voice over IP means sending voice information in digital form using discrete
packets rather than the traditional telephone network. The RVON-C delivers an integrated solution for connecting custom
keypanels to the Intercom Matrix over standard IP networks by supporting eight (8) channels (ports) of audio in and out.
The RVON-C card supports all standard, hot-swappable and configurable features through Bosch’s AZedit configuration
software as well as support for remote keypanels and virtual keypanels via VO IP (Voice Over IP).
RVON-C supports Bosch Intelligent Trunking over IP. Trunking is a method of using a relatively few audio paths for a large
number of potential users. Because it is flexible, a trunked system can expand along with your business, to accommodate a
growing number of users. Bosch’s Intelligent Trunking is proven technology, which provides the same capabilities and ease of
use for seamless routing and path finding of communications between facilities regardless of distance — as does the long
distance telephone system for phone calls.
RVON-C is fully compatible with internationally recognized standards and supports the following protocols: G.711, G.729A,
and G.723 (2 speeds).
Features
Installation The RVON-C card is hot-swappable and installs in any available slot in a Cronus Intercom System. It
provides a single RJ-45 Ethernet connection for use with a 10 BASE-T or 100 BASE-TX network. It also
has a DB-9 connection for an RS-232 or RS-485 pass-thru port.

Installation of the RVON-C Card into the Cronus System
CAUTION: When inserting the RVON-C card into the Cronus system, the following considerations must be made:
• Gently insert the R VON-C card into the correct slot. If the card is forced or twisted while inserting, a pin
on the backplane could short or break causing the card to become inoperable.
• When inserting the RVON-C card into the Cronus system, make sure to insert it into a compatible
backcard. If the card is inserted into a incompatible backcard, undesirable results can occur.
Addresses and the RVON-C Card
Because the RVON-C has an Ethernet interface, it is required to have a MAC (Media Access Control) address. This is a low
level address that contains 48 bits. Do not confuse this address with an IP (Internet Protocol) Address. In order to be IP
compliant, all cards must have a unique MAC ID when shipped from the manufacturer. Typically, the MAC ID of a piece of
hardware, such as the RVON -C card, has a fixed or static address. Whereas, the RVON-C card’s IP Address can change over
time.
The MAC Address uniquely identifies each node of a network and interfaces directly with the network media. The RVON-C
card has a small 8-pin serial device on the board so that the processor can read the unique MAC Address. For more
information on MAC IDs, contact technical support.

8. From the Serial Baud Rate drop down list, select the baud rate at which the data is transmitted.
Under Settings for Connected Devices
NOTE: You must configure the channel settings on each end of a connection and ensure the same codec and packet
size are selected at each end. Remember, the RVON-C card has different channels that can be configured.
9. In the R VON-C Channel drop down list, select the channel you want to use to communicate to another device across
the network.
10. In the Device IP Address field, enter the IP Address of the device you want to connect to.
11. From the Device Type drop down list, select the type of device the RVON-C card is connecting to.

13. From the CODEC Type drop down list, select the CODEC type you want to use for this channel.
14. From the Packet Size drop down list, select the size of each audio packet.
NOTE: A CODEC is an algorithm used to compress audio. There are five (5) Codices support by Bosch: G.711μs
law, G.711A law, G.729A, G.723 (5.3k) and G.723 (6.3k). The type of CODEC dictates the quality of audio
you hear and the network ba ndwidth us ed. The packet size determines how much audio data is carried across
the network in each transmitted packet. The CODEC type and pack size chosen require different amounts of
bandwidth from the network (See “Specifications” on page 42.). As with CODEC type, the packet size you
choose for the audio transfer affects the audio you hear and the bandwidth you use over the network. The
larger the audio packet you choose to use, the lower the bandwidth used. However, the larger packet size can
result in a higher delay and longer gaps if the packet is lost. On the other hand, the smaller packet sizes result
in larger bandwidth use, but lower delays and smaller gaps if the packet is lost. The Intercom System
Engineer and the Network Administrator may want to work together in choosing the CODEC type and
packet size suitable for the size of the network, so degradation of network resources does not happen.
15. Select Enable VAD, if you want to conserve bandwidth when the audio level is below a given threshold.
NOTE: VAD (Voice Activity Detection) saves network bandwidth by stopping the flow of audio packets when
silence is detected. VAD is similar to VOX.
At this point you may choose another channel to configure or choose another card to configure.
16. Once you are completely finished, click Apply.
Apply sends all of the changes to all the cards in the intercom, or click Cancel to discard all changes you made.

APPENDIX A
Basic Network Configuration
Basic Network Configuration
This section covers basic network configuration setup and testing. Basic concepts and operations, including the difference
between LAN and WAN networks and how IP Addressing is used is covered.
Typically, there are many computers connected together using a router or a switch in a networked environment, such as a
company . In larger companies, there may be several different routers distributed in buildings and plant locations. A router
allows any LAN-side computer to communicate with other computers and devices outside the LAN (Local Area Network).
Routers send data packets from one place to another place on a network. routers use network addresses to route packets to the
correct destination. For example, in a TCP/IP network, the IP (Internet Protocol) Address of the network interface is used to
direct router destinations.
Because routers help computers inside the LAN “talk” with computers outside of the LAN, the security of a company’s LAN
may be compromised by gaps of open ports in the router. Security measures may have been instituted to compensate for these
vulnerabilities. Consult you network administrator to learn about the security measures taken to protect your network. VPN
(Virtual Private Network) is one such security measure to protect the intelligence of the LAN. A computer outside the LAN
must have an address or key known by the VPN to allow access to the LAN. Many companies use a VPN to connect two (2)
different LANs, thus allowing the transfer of data between two networks.
LAN (Local Area Network) vs. WAN (Wide Area Network)
Local Area Network
Simply put, a LAN is a computer network that connects a relatively small area (a single building or group of buildings). Most
LANs connect workstations and computers to each other. Each computer, also known as a node, has its own processing unit
and executes its own programs; however, it can also access data and devices anywhere on the LAN. This means many users
can access and share the same information and devices. A good example of a LAN device is a network printer. Most
companies cannot afford the budgetary or hardware expense of providing printers for each of its users; therefore, one printer
(or device) is placed on the LAN where every user can access the same printer.
The LAN uses IP Addresses to route data to different destinations on the network. An IP Address is a 32-bit numeric address
consisting of four (4) numbers separated by periods (for example, 1.160.10.240).
NOTE: For more information on IP Addresses, see you local network administrator.

FIGURE 24. Local Area Network Diagram
Wide Area Network
A WAN (Wide Area Network) connects two (2) or more LANs and can span a relatively lar ge geographical area. For example,
Telex Headquarters in Burnsville, MN is connected to several branch offices in Nebraska and Arkansas over a WAN. The
WAN in existence is the Internet.

ACCESSING THE WIDE AREA NETWORK (WAN)
As shown in Figure 26, the LAN IP Address, 10.2.100.X (192.168.X.X is another common address), as seen in . Most devices
are shipped with these addresses as the default. It is recommended to use these addresses for LANs.
FIGURE 26. Network Address Translation
NETWORK ADDRESS TRANSLATION (NAT)
The network address translation works using the initial IP Address, then converting it to a valid WAN IP Address. Once the IP
address is changed, it is up to the network interface device (such as a router, gateway, switch, etc.) to keep track of which
computers are talking on which ports. For ex ample, if two local devices (PC1 and PC2 in Figure 3) both wanted to talk via port
1031, then the network interface device would have to change one of the port requests to the next available port, 1032.
PORTS
In general, a network port is an endpoint to a logical connection. The port number identifies what type of port it is. For
example, port 80 is used for HTTP traffic. When you type an address into the address bar of a web browser, your computer
locates an IP Address for the url you are requesting (http://www.telex.com). To obtain this address, the computer contacts a
DNS (Domain Name Server) server. Once the IP Address is found, it tries to connect to the http port of the network device
(port 80). See Table 1 for a list of the more well-known port numbers.
Each network device can be set up to respond or not respond to the various ports. The function of responding or hosting a
service is called serving.

If a second workstation on the LAN wants to communicate to the same server, and happens to use the same source port
number, then the LAN Modem translates the source port number as well as the source IP address. In Table, 2, a second LAN
computer wants to access a web page. The NAT device now uses port 1032 for this connection where it used port 1031, see
Figure 5.

POSSIBLE PITFALL WITH ROUTERS, GATEWAYS, AND SWITCHES
Anytime computers communicate through routers, gateways, and switches, they must gain pe rm ission to the connection.
Network interface devices can be configured to block specific outgoing requests, as well as incoming requests, based on the IP
Address and/or port. This is one of the security mechanisms of a router. This also happens when broadcast messages are sent
and received.
To view the path an IP Address takes to retrieve information, you can execute a tracert from the Command Prompt Window.
To run a tracert, do the following:
1. From the Start Menu, open a Command Prompt window.
2. At the prompt, type tracert and type the url or IP Address you want to trace.
3. Press Enter.
The details of the tracer route are displayed.
NOTE: The message Request Timed Out appears if the IP Address/port in or out is denied to the incoming or
outgoing message.
4. When you are finished, type exit to close the Command Prompt window.

RVON Configuration
RVON cards use ports for communication of audio and control packets. Because routers can be configured to block certain
incoming and outgoing requests, you will need to open the following ports in your network to allow WAN connections to and
from a Network Interface Device. See the table below for the ports that need to be opened for the RVON cards to operate
properly.

Network Terminology
Bridges A bridge is a device that connects two LANs, or two segments of the same LAN that use the
same protocol. Sometimes called “transparent bridges, they work at the OSI model Layer 2.
Simply put, they are not concerned with protocols. Their main job is to pass data to a destination
address that is predetermined in the data packet.
With a bridge, all of your computers are on the same network subnet (see Subnet). This means
your computers can communicate with each other and have their own Internet connection. If
you assign your own IP Addresses be sure to use the same first 3 “octets” of the IP Address (for
example, 192.168.0.X).
Domain Name Server
(DNS)
A DNS Server is an Internet service that translates domain names (for example, in the URL
http://www.telex.com, the domain name is the telex.com) into IP Addresses. The Internet is
based on IP Addresses which are numeric and since domain names are alphabetic, they are
easier to remember. Every time a domain name is used it must go through th e DNS server to be
translated into an IP Address.
Gateway A gateway is a node on a network that serves as an entrance to another network. The gateway
routes traffic from a computer to an outside network that is serving the web pages. For example,
the gateway for a home computer is the ISP provider that connects the user to the Internet.In a
corporate environment, the gateway often acts as a proxy server and a firewall. Gateways are
similar to routers and switches in that they forward da ta to the desti nati on and provide the path
for which the data will travel to the destination.
Hub A hub is a common connection point for devices in a network. A hub has multiple ports. When
a data packet arrives at a hub, it is copied and distributed to all of its ports so that all nodes on
the LAN can see the packets
There are three types of hubs:
passive hub - this hub serves as a conduit for the data, enabling it to go from one device
to another.
intelligent hub (also known as manageable hubs) - this hub includes addition features
that enable administrators to monitor traffic through the hub.
switching hub - this hub reads the destination address of each packet and then forwards
the data pack to the appropriate port.

IP Address (Internet
Protocol Address)
An IP Address is an identifier or numerical name for a computer or device on a network. Data
between computers are routed over the network using these addresses to identify the computer
the message is being sent to and the computer the message is being sent from.The format of an
IP Address is a 32-bit numeric address written as four numbers separated by periods. For
example, an IP Address looks like 10.100.1.1.
IMPORTANT: When working within an isolated network (meaning there is no Internet
access), IP Addresses can be assigned at random just as long as they are
unique to each computer and device. When the isolated network is
connected to the Internet, registered Internet Addresses must be obtained.
This is to prevent duplication of addresses.
The four numbers in and IP Address are used in different was to identify a particular network
and host on that network. There are three classes of Internet Addresses.
CLASS A - supports 16 million hosts on each of 127 networks.
CLASS B - supports 65,000 hosts on each of 16,000 networks.
CLASS C - supports 254 hosts on each of 2 million networks.
LAN A LAN is a computer network that connects a relatively small area (a single building or group
of buildings). Most LANs connect work stations and computers to each other. Each computer
(also known as a “node”), has its own processing unit and executes its own processing unit and
executes its own programs; however it can also access data and devices anywhere on the LAN.
This means that many users can access and share the same information and devices. A good
example of a LAN device is a network printer. Most companies cannot afford the budgetary or
hardware expense of providing printers for each of its users; therefore, one printer (i.e., device)
is placed on the LAN where every user can access the same printer.
The LAN uses IP Addresses to route data to different destinations on the network. An IP
Address is a 32-bit numeric address written as four numbers separated by periods (for example
1.160.10.240).
Port A port, when referring to TCP and UDP networks, is an endpoint in a logical connection. The
port number identifies the type of port it is. For example, port 80 is used for HTTP traffic.
Routers A router is a device that forwards data packets over networks. Most commonly, a router is
connected to at least two networks (normally LANs or W ANs). Routers are located at gateways,
the place where two networks are connected. Routers do little data filtering, they mainly deliver
the data.
Subnet A subnet is a portion of a network that shares a common address component. On a TCP/IP
network, a subnet is described as all computers or devices whose IP Address have the same
prefix.
Subnetting a network is useful because it provides security for the network as well as increases
performance of the network. IP networks are divided using subnet masks
Switches A switch is a device that filters and forwards data packets between networks. Switches operate
at the data layer, and sometimes at the network layer.
WAN A wide area network connects two or more LANs and can span a relatively large geographical
area. For example, Telex Headquarters in Burnsville, MN is connected to several of its branch
offices in Nebraska and Arkansas over the wide area network. The largest WAN is the Internet.

RV ON-C Quick S tart
This guide explains briefly how to install and configure an RVON-C card in a Cronus system. It contains the following
sections
Step 1 Install the front card and the back card into Cronus. See“Install Front and Back Cards in Cronus” on
page 79.
Step 2 Connect Ethernet. See “Connect Ethernet” on page 79
Step 3 Connect to Cronus frame in AZedit. See “Launch AZedit and Connect to the Cronus Frame” on page 80
Step 4 Configure the RVON-C card. See “Configure the RVON-C Card” on page 81.
Step 5 Configure the devices the card will connect with. See “Configure the Devices Connected to the RVON-C
Card” on page 83.
Step 6 Begin Operation.
NOTE: If you are connecting using Serial Pass-Through Port, See “RVON-C Card Serial Port Programming” on page 71.
Install Front and Back Cards in Cronus
When inserting the RVON-C card into Cronus, the following consideration s need to be made:
• Gently insert the RVON-C card into the correct slot. If the card is forced or twisted while inserting, a pin
on the backplane could short or break causing the card to become inoperable.
• When inserting the RVON-C card into Cronus, be sure to insert it into a compatible back card. If the
card is inserted into an incompatible back card, undesirable results can occur.
Connect Ethernet
Verify there is an Ethernet connection from the RVON-C card (J2 Ethernet on the back of the Cronus) to the network.

4. In the Network Mask field, enter the Network Mask of the network the RVON-C card is connected to.
5. In the Default Gateway field, enter the Default Gateway Address (if applicable) of the network the R VON-C card is
connected.
A Default Gateway is only required if the RVON-C connections are between LANs or WANs.
Under Settings for Pass-Through Serial via Ethernet
6. Enter the Target IP Address of the device you want to connect to over the Ethernet.
7. From the Serial Baud Rate drop down list, select the baud rate at which the data is transmitted.
Under Settings for Connected Devices
NOTE: You MUST configure the channel settings on each end of a connection and ensure the same codec and
packet size are select at each end. Remember, the RVON-C card has different channels that can be
configured.
8. In the R VON-C Channel drop down list, select the channel you want to use to communicate to another device across
the network.
9. In the Device IP Address field, enter the IP Address of the device you want to connect to.
10. From the Device Type drop down list, select the type of device the RVON-C card is connecting to.
11. From the Device Channel drop down list, select the channel on the device the RVON-C card communicates with.
12. From the CODEC Type drop down list, select the CODEC type you want to use for this channel.
13. From the Packet Size drop down list, select the size of each audio packet.
NOTE: A CODEC is an algorithm used to compress audio. There are 5 Codices supported by Telex: G.711μs law,
G.711A law, G.729AB, G.723 (5.3k), G.723 (6.3k). The type of CODEC dictates the quality of audio you
hear and the network bandwidth used. The packet size determines how much audio data is carried across the
network in each transmitted packet. The CODEC type and packet size chosen require different amounts of
bandwidth from the network (See “Codec Specifications” on page 77). As with the CODEC type, the packet
size you choose for the audio transfer affects the audio you hear and the bandwidth you use over the
network. The larger the audio packet you choose to use, the lower the bandwidth used. However, the larger
packet size can result in a higher delay and longer gaps if the packet is lost. On the other had, smaller packet
sizes result in larger bandwidth use, but lower delays and smaller gaps if the packet is lost. The Intercom
System Engineer and the Network Administrator may want to work together in choosing the CODEC type
and packet size suitable for the size of the network, so degradation of network resources does not happen.
14. Select Enable VAD (Voice Activity Detection), if you want to conserve bandwidth when the audio level is below a
given threshold.
NOTE: Voice Activity Detection saves network bandwidth by stopping the flow of audio packets when silence is
detected. VAD is similar to VOX.
15. At this point you may choose another channel to configure or choose another card to configure.
16. Once you are completely finished, click Apply.
Apply sends all of the changes to all the cards in the intercom, or click Cancel to discard all changes you make.
