Preparing the conference system for use
Connecting the PC to the central unit
Please note that the program for controlling the conference system and
the program for controlling the interpretation system require a separate
RS 232 interface each.
The conference and interpretation system can be controlled using either
two PCs with one free RS 232 interface respectively or using one PC with
two free RS 232 interfaces.
You can connect additional Slave and Video PCs via a local area network
(LAN).
You must install the software on all the PCs.
To connect PCs to the central unit:
̈ Make sure that the required serial interfaces are available and free. The
required interfaces must appear in the Windows Device Manager under
“Ports (COM & LPT)”. These interfaces must not be used by any other
software.
̈ Use one zero modem cable to connect the serial interface of the PC via
which the conference system is to be controlled to the COM 3
interface · of the central unit.
̈ Use the second zero modem cable to connect the serial interface of the
PC via which the interpretation system is to be controlled to the COM 1
interface ³ of the central unit.
Caution!
After you have connected the PC to the central unit, your conference
and interpretation system can be controlled via both the PC and the
central unit!
In order to avoid inconsistencies, please make sure that no parameters
are changed on the central unit!
