gate identification). The system operator has a monitor,
which also displays information about which camera is
active. This system provides an extra dimension to con-
gress and conference proceedings. Up to 1500 delegate
positions can be covered using a maximum of 256 cam-
eras.
There are two versions of DCN Automatic Camera
Control software available:
• LBB 3588 is for DCN systems with a CCU and a control
PC. The activation and installation of the cameras is integrat-
ed into the DCN PC control software.
• LBB 3562 is for stand-alone DCN systems (systems without
PC control).

Multi-CCU Control Software
The Multi-CCU control software is a dedicated pro-
gram that allows the user to set up and monitor con-
gress systems that use more than one Multi-Central
Control Unit (CCU). Multi-CCU software allows up to
32 Multi-CCUs to be interconnected in a single system.
The user can select up to eight of these Multi-CCUs for
use at any one time, and then specify a number of para-
meters related to the control of these CCUs.
Multi-CCU software is used for conferences with more
than 240 delegates, or situations where it is advisable to
connect groups of contribution units to separate CCUs

Open Interface software
The DCN Open Interface software allows remote con-
trol of selected DCN functions via third party equip-
ment and control software. Control data exchange
between DCN and the remote control device or system
is carried out via an RS232 port on the CCU. Access to
the CCU for remote control is opened with the Open
Interface software via a PC connection to the serial port
of the CCU.

(i.e. in multi-hall conference venues). It runs under the
OS/2 operating system on a dedicated PC.
There are a number of possibilities available with the
Multi-CCU software:
• Specifying which CCUs will be required for a conference,
before the conference begins. This information is stored in a
configuration file
• Loading, preparing and editing configuration files. This
includes assigning new names to CCUs, specifying which
CCUs will be active in a conference and specifying the
default CCUs for 'Audiomaster', 'Control PC' and
'Interpreters'
• Monitoring Multi-CCU behaviour. Warning messages are dis-
played whenever there is a change in the actual configura-
tion or when a power failure occurs while using an
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)
Possible DCN functions for remote control are:
• System Configuration
• System Installation
• Microphone Management
• Parliamentary Voting
• Attendance Registration
• Intercom
• Message Distribution
Remote control is only possible with the LBB 3500/15
and LBB 3500/35 (in single CCU mode) CCUs, and the
master CCU PC (with OS/2 and PC-card LBB 3511/00)
in multi-CCU systems. For detailed information, refer to
the LBB 3587 Open Interface software documentation.
