Central Control Unit
The DIS-CCU Central Unit provides the intelligence for systems of up to 250 participants in the DDS 5900 system. It processes
audio and control signals from each discussion and interpreter unit, and distributes audio to other participants for listening to
the discussion.
The central control unit (CCU) is the processor for the DDS 5900 system. It provides power
and control to the discussion units, analog audio inputs and outputs for external equipment,
and a web server that hosts the browser interface for remote system control. Each system
uses a single CCU.
Participants use the discussion units (DU) to speak and listen to other members of the
event. A microphone, loudspeaker, and channel selector are provided for each unit. Units
connect in series, simplifying setup by transporting power, audio, and control data on the
same cable. There are two models of discussion units:
DC 5980 P
All-in-one unit that sits on the table surface. It is configurable as
Portable Discus-
chairman, delegate, or interpreter.
sion Unit
DC 5900 F Flush-
The flushmount discussion unit installs unobtrusively into a table or
mount Discussion
podium. The modular unit adds functionality depending on the
Unit
components. It is configurable as chairman or delegate.
The browser interface provides comprehensive setup and discussion management for the
DDS 5900 system. It opens in a web browser from a computer networked with the CCU. Use
the interface to manage microphones, assign names and seat numbers to delegates, and
advanced system configuration.
