External Audio Peripherals
PA systems:
Whereas the Confidea WDUs have a build in
loudspeaker, some meeting rooms are equipped
with external PA systems with loudspeakers
installed on walls or in ceilings.
Making use of such a setup, the floor language of
the conference system needs to insert into the PA
system. This requires an analog output, which is
available on the central control equipment of both
TCS2500/Confidea CU and TCS5500.
Recording:
Whenever meeting reports need to be written or
audio of meetings is being published on the web,
recording needs to take place during the meeting.
The recording device (hardware or software
solution) needs to have an analog input signal
provided by the conference system. Both the
Televic Confidua CU and the TCS5500 central
control units have 7 analog outputs available.
Additional outputs can be provided by adding
external TCS5500 output equipment to the
TCS5500 system.
Audio reproduction:
Feeding external audio signals (music before
meeting, DVD sound, input external microphone,
telephone line, …) into the conference system
requires analog inputs on the central control unit.
Both the TCS2500/Confidea CU and TCS5500
central control units have two analog inputs. If this
is not sufficient the TCS5500 system has the
capability to connect additional input equipment.

Connectivity
Operator Control:
Systems requiring a great degree of control can be
equipped with the Televic software suite.
This application makes it possible, depending on
the license, to control the microphones in a
meeting, assign delegate names, control speech
time, display delegate and speech time information
on monitors or projection screens.
It offers easy initialization and configuration
capabilities supporting an easy set-up and break-
down, essential for successive meeting planning
with low delays like convention centers.
Furthermore it visualizes the battery and RF quality
status of all units, giving the operator/technician
the ability to assure no interruptions once the
meeting started.
Camera Control
To enable a camera system to visualize the
currently active Confidea user, a device bus
controller needs to translate the commands
received from the Televic system into preset
positions of the camera control system. Both the
TCS2500/Confidea CU and TCS5500 systems will do
the job.
The difference between the TCS2500/Confidea CU
and the TCS5500 system on connectivity level is the
way the communication takes place.
The TCS2500/Confidea CU uses a serial
communication protocol, whereas the TCS5500
system has additional IP connectivity.
