Page 30: Setting Up A Wired Conference System
Structuring and controlling the conference system Setting up a wired conference system Basic requirements for a conference system comprising wired conference units For safe operation of the conference system, make sure that all wired conference units are supplied with a voltage of at least 35 V! The voltage supplied depends on the number of connected conference units and on the cable lengths.
Page 31 Structuring and controlling the conference system Large conference system with simple cabling For setting up a large conference system with the maximum number of conference units (i.e. up to 400), you require one ADN CU1 central unit for controlling the con- ference and additional ADN PS power supplies for powering the conference units.
Page 32 Structuring and controlling the conference system Large conference system with redundant ring topology The redundant ring topology ensures that, should one conference unit or system cable fail or be manipulated, all other conference units of the cable ring will con- tinue to function reliably.
Page 33: Setting Up A Wireless Conference System
Structuring and controlling the conference system Setting up a wireless conference system Basic requirements for a conference system comprising wireless conference units The ADN-W C1 and ADN-W D1 wireless conference units connect wirelessly to the ADN-W AM antenna module, which is connected to the ADN CU1 central unit via a system cable.

Cleaning and maintaining the conference system Cleaning and maintaining the conference system CAUTION Liquids can damage the product! Liquids entering the product can cause a short-circuit in the electronics or damage the mechanics. Solvents or cleansing agents can damage the surfaces of the product. Keep all liquids away from the product.
Page 227 Cleaning and maintaining the conference system ADN chargers Switch the chargers off (see page 54). Before cleaning, disconnect the chargers from the mains power supply (see page 50). Only use a dry and soft cloth to clean the products. Use for example a paintbrush to remove dust from the charging compartments. To ensure optimum cooling of the ADN-W L 10 or ADN-W CASE UNITS charger: Clean the air vents on the sides from time to time with a soft brush or paint- brush in order to avoid dust deposits.
Page 228: Transporting The Wireless Components
Transporting the wireless components Transporting the wireless components One of the advantages of wireless components of the ADN conference system is that they are easy to set up and dismantle again. This makes the conference sys- tem mobile and ensures flexibility of use. Preparing the wireless components for transport Unplug all system and mains cables from the ADN CU1 central unit and from the ADN-W AM antenna module.
Page 229 Transporting the wireless components To stack the modules of the transport and charging case: Open the butterfly locks of the lower module. With the assistance of at least a second person, lift the next module using the foldable carrying handles and place it on the lower module so that the alumi- num profiles of the modules engage with each other.
