Overview
The CU 4010 Central Control Unit (CU) powers and controls conference units and mixes the audio. The CU 4010 can control and power up to 100 conference units. System settings such as operating modes (Automatic, FIFO and Manual) are accessible via the menu on the front of the CU.
A PC, MC 4000 or 3rd party control device (AMX/Crestron) can be connected to the Central Control Unit to allow the operator to remotely control conference units. In the event of PC failure, the Central Control Unit will revert to its stand-alone operation mode, enabling the conference to proceed.
