Pressing the SET MODE (B1) button will change
the MC 4000 mode of operation from normal mode
to system settings mode.
System Settings Operation mode
This mode of operation is used to monitor/change
the system settings for the microphone system, and
to enter the two special purpose modes Test
Operation mode and Program operation mode.
From the system setting mode it is not possible to
change the volume settings (Input, Microphone or
Headset) as the buttons/displays used for
controlling the volume settings in normal operation
mode are transferred in this mode to provide
additional functionality. It is still possible to fully
operate the microphones (switch ON/OFF, monitor
request list, etc.)
A LED bar next to the D3 display will light up with
the text MAXR indicating that the D3 display is
now used to display the maximum number of
delegate microphones allowed in the request queue
(e.g. "R 50"). This system setting can be changed
from the B2 buttons (respectively decrement by one
and incremented by one), but the new setting will
not be effective before the MC 4000 mode of
operation is changed back to normal operation
mode.
A LED bar next to the D4 display will light up with
the text MAXS indicating that the D4 display is
now used to display the maximum number of
delegate
microphones
allowed
to
speak
simultaneously (e.g. "SPK3"). This system setting
can be changed from the B3 buttons (respectively
decrement by one and incremented by one), but the
new setting will not be effective before the MC
4000 mode of operation is changed back to normal
operation mode.
Next to the B4 buttons a LED bar will light up with
the text MODE indicating that these buttons are
now used for changing the mode of the microphone
system or MC 4000 microphone controller as
indicated in the D1 display. Pressing one of the
buttons, the selection is switched between AUTO,
FIFO, MAN, TEST and PROG. AUTO, FIFO and
MAN indicate the mode of the CU 4005/CU 4010
as described in the CU 4005/CU 4010 section of
this manual, whereas TEST and PROG indicate
modes of operation applying solely to the MC 4000
microphone controller. If the mode displayed in the
D1 display is changed, the new setting will only be
effective after the SET MODE button is pressed.
The SET MODE button is used to change the mode
of operation of the MC 4000 microphone controller
back to Normal mode of operation (if the mode
shown in D2 is either AUTO, FIFO or MAN) and
effectuate the changes made in the system settings
MAXS and MAXR. If the mode shown in D2 is
TEST or PROG, the SET MODE button is used to
change the MC 4000 mode of operation to this
mode. Note that it is only possible to change the
MC 4000 mode of operation to TEST mode when
there are no microphones in speak or request. When
changing the MC 4000 mode of operation to PROG
(programming mode), a message "To enter
PROGRAM mode press P" is displayed prompting
the operator to confirm this selection before
programming mode is entered. Pressing the 'P' key
will cause the MC 4000 to enter programming
mode whereas pressing any other key will return
the MC 4000 mode of operation to normal
operation mode.
Test Operation mode
This mode of operation is used to test that the
microphone system is fully operational and that the
sound quality of the microphone capsules is
acceptable. This mode is also used to verify that all
microphones are numbered correctly. Note that it is
not possible to control the microphone system
normally in test operation mode.
The keys 'P', 'R' and 'S' that are normally used to
switch microphones on, off, in request or pre-select
are not operational in this mode.
The different volumes (input, microphone and
headset) are displayed and controlled normally in
test operation mode.
The top four positions of the DS displays are used
normally to display the number of the microphone
