MCW-D 50 – Important Safety Instructions Special Note about Power Cables for Canada and the USA Canada Only use a power cable according to CSA C22.2 No.21 and CSA C22.2 No. 42. The earthing conductor in a supply cord, or in an interconnecting cable shall have an equivalent or larger cross-sectional area that the current-carrying conductors in the supply cord or cable.
MCW-D 50 Control Unit The MCW-D 50 control unit is the heart of the system. It controls the delegate and chairman microphone units. With the standard version of the MCW-D 50 control unit a maximum of 3 speakers (e.g. 2 delegates and 1 chairman) can speak simultaneously.
3.2.1 Where to place the Control Unit • If you do not use remote antennae*, place the MCW-D 50 control unit in the room where the meeting takes place. If you use remote antennae*, place them in the conference room.
Important: • There must be an unobstructed path between the microphone units and the antennae, i.e. between the MCW-D 50 control unit and the microphone units there must not be any obstacles. The range is around 30 - 50 m. For optimum range the surface of the table is important, wood or plastic tables are ideal, but metal tables can cause interferences and reduce the range.
(standard: 3 channels). Important: • If the MCW-D 50 control unit is equipped with more than one module, but there are not more than 3 LEDs illuminated, please check if individual modules have been deactivated with the MCW-D 50 Conference Software.
3.2.9 Connection of Media Control System and PC • If you want to connect a media control system and a PC to the MCW-D 50 control unit, connect the PC to the LAN network connection and the media control system to the RS 232 connection •...
