Safety Notes
The units (the controller CS-50CU and the microphone
stations CS-50DU/CS-50CH) correspond to all rele-
vant directives of the EU and are therefore marked
with
.
WARNING The controller uses dangerous mains
voltage. Leave servicing to skilled per-
sonnel only. Inexpert handling or modifi-
cation of the unit may result in electric
shock.
Please observe the following items in any case:
G
The units are suitable for indoor use only. Protect
them against dripping water and splash water, high
air humidity and heat (admissible ambient tempera-
ture range 0 – 40 °C).
G
Do not place any vessel filled with liquid on the units,
e. g. a drinking glass.
G
The heat generated inside the controller must be dis-
sipated by air circulation; never cover the air vents.
G
Do not operate the controller and immediately dis-
connect the mains plug from the socket
1. if one of the units or the mains cable is visibly
damaged,
2. if a defect might have occurred after a unit was
dropped or suffered a similar accident,
3. if malfunctions occur.
In any case the units must be repaired by skilled per-
sonnel.
G
Never pull the mains cable for disconnecting the
mains plug from the socket, always seize the plug.
G
For cleaning only use a dry, soft cloth; never use
water or chemicals.

plant for a disposal which will not be harmful
to the environment.
3 Applications
The CS-50 system is used for technical support of con-
ferences and discussion meetings with up to 50 micro-
phone stations. Via additional audio connections on
the controller CS-50CU, further units (e. g. recorders,
amplifiers, wireless microphone systems, equalizers,
telecommunication) will easily be integrated.
Each microphone station (CS-50DU and CS-50CH)
is equipped with a high-quality microphone cartridge, a
speaker and two headphone jacks with a volume
control. CS-50CH, the microphone stations for chair -
persons are also provided with a priority button which
will allow chairpersons to interrupt other delegates for
their own announcements.
Various discussion modes (e. g. a defined number
of delegates talking at the same time or a talking time
with automatic limit), an indication of date and time, a
separate stopwatch feature, a key lock feature for the
controller and a test feature for all microphone stations
connected will allow versatile applications of the sys-
tem.
4 Making Connections
Always switch off the units prior to making or changing
any connections!
4.1 Microphone stations
For connecting the microphone stations, the two jacks
"Trunk in/out" (19) are provided on the controller. Each
of the two jacks will allow connection of a chain of up
to 25 microphone stations of the type CS-50CH and/or
CS-50DU.
1) Connect the plug (29) of the first microphone station
to one of the jacks "Trunk in/out" (19).
2) Connect the plug (29) of the second microphone
station to the jack (28) on the rear side of the first
microphone station (or to the other jack "Trunk
in/out" on the controller).
3) Connect further microphone stations in the same
,
way. The CS-50CH and CS-50DU units may be
connected in any order. The number of microphone
stations connected to the two jacks on the controller
may also be different.
