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
