    Section 4: CS 5 DU Delegate Station 4.1 Introduction The CS5 DU is the basic microphone station for the CS 5 conference system. It provides a microphone connection with talk button, two built-in loudspeakers, and two headphone jacks. The loudspeakers reproduce the main mix ("floor signal") while the headphone jacks allow the user to listen to the floor signal or one of three interpreted languages.

  • Page 36: Section 7: Infrared Transmission System

    The CS 5 IRT 1 and CS 5 IRT 2 infrared radiators are capable of transmitting seven interpretation channels to the CS 5 IRR 7 infrared receivers. The two radiator models are technically identical, except that the CS 5 IRT 2 is larger than and provides about twice the radiation range of the CS 5 IRT 1.
  • Page 37: Mounting

    Note: Working out the exact number of infrared radiators needed for optimum room coverage and placing them cor- rectly can be a challenge in some rooms. As a rule of thumb, it is better to use many small (CS 5 IRT 1) radia- tors than only a few large ones (CS 5 IRT 2).

    7.2.1 General The CS 5 IRR 7 is a light, portable infrared receiver for use with the CS 5 IRT 1 and CS 5 IRT 2 infrared radiators. It provides seven selectable audio channels, a mini-jack headphone output, volume control, and ON key. The receiver is powered by a standard 6F22 9 V rechargeable battery lasting for up to 13 hours per charge.
