Preparing the conference system for use
Connecting the PC to the central unit
Please note that the program for controlling the conference system and
the program for controlling the interpretation system require a separate
RS 232 interface each. Therefore, there are two possibilities for PC
controlling your conference and interpretation system:
1.
You connect a single PC to the central unit:
The PC has two free RS 232 interfaces. Both the program for
controlling the conference system and the program for controlling the
interpretation system are installed on this PC.
Additional slave or video PCs can be connected to the PC's network
card via a local network (LAN).
2.
You connect two PCs to the central unit:
The program for controlling the conference system and the program for
controlling the interpretation system are installed on two different PCs.
Each PC has a free RS 232 interface.

Make sure that the required serial interfaces are available and free. The
required interfaces must appear in the Windows Device Manager under
"Ports (COM & LPT)". These interfaces

of the central unit.

PC via which the interpretation system is to be controlled to the COM 1
interface
of the central unit.
Attention!
After you have connected the PC to the central unit, your conference
and interpretation system can be controlled via both the PC and the
central unit!
