Quinta CU Control Unit

Where to place the control unit
• If you do not use remote antennae, place the Quinta CU control unit in the room where the
meeting takes place. If you use remote antennae, place the antennae in the conference room.
• Avoid shadowing effect of the antennae, especially by metallic surfaces.
• A free line of sight between the Quinta MU microphone units and the antennae of the Quinta CU
control unit is essential for the operation of the microphone units.
How to connect the antennae
• Connect the antennae to the antenna connections
antennae have to be connected! A weighting circuit is used to make sure that the better antenna
signal is received.
• For stand-alone operation we recommend using the supplied CA Q 11 angled rod antennae.
• The Quinta CU control unit can also be operated with remote antennae. We recommend extremely
low attenuation connecting cables which are 10 m [32.8 ft.] or 20 m [65.6 ft.] long. Please note
that the antennae have to be installed remotely.
Connections
• If required, connect the Audio Mix
unit to the input of a mixing console or amplifier.
• Connect the Quinta CU control unit to the mains
unit can automatically adjust between 100 and 240 V at 50 - 60 Hz. Verify that the voltage rating
of the unit matches that of the AC mains outlet you are to use. If you connect the unit to the wrong
voltage, you may seriously damage it. Always route cables running to the unit where they will not
be pinched or cut by heavy or sharp objects.
• For using the AVB network connection, please refer to the extensive "Quinta Conference System"
manual.
