Please make sure to read the “Safety information” supplement
included separately with the ADN CU1 central unit. This supplement
contains important information on the safe operation of the ADN
conference system as well as the manufacturer’s declaration and
warranty notes.
A detailed instruction manual for the overall ADN conference system
can be found
• on the Internet at www.sennheiser.com or
• on the DVD-ROM supplied with the
ADN CU1 central unit.
The ADN D1/C1 and ADN-W D1/C1
conference units
The ADN D1 wired delegate unit and the ADN C1 wired chairperson unit
as well as the ADN-W D1 wireless delegate unit and the ADN-W C1
wireless chairperson unit are part of the Sennheiser ADN conference
system.
To ensure full operational reliability in a redundant ring
topology, the hardware of the ADN C1 and ADN D1 has been
revised. If you combine conference units with hardware
1 (no marking on the type plate) and conference units
revision
with hardware revision 2 (“
plate), fail-safe operation is only possible to a limited extent.
왘 In a redundant ring topology, only use conference units
with hardware revision 2.

Preparing the ADN-W D1/C1 wireless
conference units for operation
To operate the wireless conference unit, you have to connect
a gooseneck microphone (ADN-W MIC 15 or ADN-W MIC 36; available
in different lengths) to the console of the conference unit. The
ADN-W
BA battery pack supplies power to the wireless conference
unit. The conference system automatically recognizes if the connected
wireless conference unit is a chairperson unit (ADN-W C1) or a delegate
unit (ADN-W D1) and initializes it automatically. Information on how
to configure the wireless conference components can be found in the
ADN system manual or in the instruction manuals of the ADN CU1
central unit and the ADN-W AM antenna module.
If you do not connect a microphone to the wireless conference
unit, you can use the console as a loudspeaker to output the
floor channel.
Screwing on/unscrewing the ADN-W MIC 15/36
gooseneck microphone
To
screw on the gooseneck microphone:
왘 Put the gooseneck microphone onto the microphone
connection .
왘 Screw the microphone to the microphone connection by turning
the fastening thread clockwise.
The microphone is securely connected to the conference unit.
unscrew the gooseneck microphone:
To
왘 Unscrew the microphone by turning the fastening thread
counterclockwise.
왘 Carefully remove the gooseneck microphone from the microphone
connection.
Function check of the microphone
After switch-on, the wireless conference unit checks the proper
functioning of the gooseneck microphone.
If errors occur during the check of the microphone, the microphone
LED and, if the microphone is power supplied, the signal light ring
flash red rapidly and the microphone is automatically deactivated.
왘 Replace the defective microphone by a new one.

If you screw the microphone to or unscrew it from the wireless
conference unit during operation (wireless conference unit is switched
on), proper functioning of the conference unit cannot be guaranteed,
i.e. volume differences or noise may occur.
왘 First connect the microphone and then switch the conference unit on.
Inserting/removing the battery pack
To insert the ADN-W BA battery pack into the wireless conference unit:
왘 Check the battery pack before using it in order to ensure sufficient
battery capacity and to exclude a defective battery pack (see the
instruction manual of the battery pack).
왘 Charge the battery pack if necessary (see the instruction manual of
the battery pack).
왘 Slide the battery pack into the battery guide rails of the wireless
conference unit.
The battery release clip locks into place with an audible click and
secures the battery pack.
To remove the battery pack from the wireless conference unit:
왘 Press the battery release clip and pull the battery pack out of
the battery guide rails.
Switching the wireless conference unit on/off
To switch the wireless conference unit
왘 Press the microphone key .
The microphone LED and the signal light ring flash red and
the RF status indicator on the ADN-W BA battery pack flashes
blue slowly. Once the initialization process is complete and after
connection to the ADN-W AM antenna module is established, the
microphone LED and the signal light ring go off. The RF status
indicator on the ADN-W BA battery pack indicates the
transmission quality:
