System settings

Pre-configured settings
The AO 6004 comes with pre-configured settings
and can be used without additional configurations.
The AO 6004 automatically assigns channels to the
outputs at start-up. Output A is assigned channel 0
(Floor), Output B is assigned channel 1, Output C is
assigned channel 2 and Output D is assigned
channel 3.
The output volume for each channel is +3 dB, which
is the recommended level for connecting to DT
60xx.
The unit can be re-configured using SW 6000. The
settings for a reconfigured unit can be saved in the
CU 6105/CU6110.

of
the
SW6000 settings
The SW6000 can be used for changing the
assignment of channels to outputs and for
setting the volume.
Both the Conference Administration Application
(CAA) and the Conference User Application
(CUA) can be used to configure the AO units
connected. They both have settings for assigning
channels to each of the 4 outputs A-D. Each
output can be set to one of the 31 language
channels or one of the three Floor channels:
Floor: automatic gain controlled output
Floor 1: loudspeaker unregulated audio
Floor 2: loudspeaker regulated audio
An ambient microphone will only be active on the
Floor channel, not on Floor 1 or Floor 2
Values: {Floor 2, Floor 1, Floor, 1,..., 30, 31}
The volume of the outputs can also be set if the
default settings are not appropriate.
Values: {Off, -40, -39,..., 14, 15}
Refer to the CAA and CUA User Manuals for more
details.
