Setup for integrated operation
(slave mode operation)
Integrated operation (slave mode operation) – with the wired SDC 8200
conference and interpretation system
The WiCOS wireless conference system can be integrated into the wired
SDC 8200 conference and interpretation system. This allows you to expand
the conference system and/or easily bridge relatively long distances. In
slave mode operation, you can use the WiCOS system for simultaneous
interpretation and add professional accessories such as room
microphones, camera functions or the software control of the SDC 8200
conference and interpretation system.
For slave mode operation, you require the SDC 8200 conference and
interpretation system with the SDC 8200 CU-M or SDC 8200 CU central
unit. One or several access points can be connected to the central unit. As
in stand-alone operation, the access point controls the wireless
communication between the conference units. The conference system is
configured via the SDC 8200 CU-M or SDC 8200 CU central unit. In
integrated operation, all conference units of the wireless WiCOS system
behave like conference units of the SDC 8200 system.
To use language distribution, you also require SDC 8200 interpreter units.
The WiCOS DV and WiCOS CV conference units allow you to select between
up to 16 interpretation channels.

The technology used

The radio technology of the WiCOS conference system is based on the
transmission standard for radio networks IEEE 802.11 a/g which is
widespread in computer technology. This radio standard offers the largest
possible operational reliability and transmission quality. The radio
protocols are optimized for conferencing, thus avoiding intermodulations
with existing radio networks. The dynamic frequency management of the
WiCOS conference system automatically detects occupied frequency
bands and changes to a free frequency band with no interruptions, even
during operation.
