Functions The QM-FTMCSC FlipTop Computer Center is part of the Crestron MediaManagerTM line of network devices, room control systems and signal routing solutions. [. . . ] Valid analog values range from -100d (-10dB) to +100d (+10dB), adjustable in increments of 0. 1dB (1d = 0. 1dB). Indicates the source gain compensation being applied to the VIDEO audio source. Valid analog values range from -100d (-10dB) to +100d (+10dB), adjustable in increments of 0. 1dB (1d = 0. 1dB). Indicates the source gain compensation being applied to the S-VIDEO audio source. Analog output: <CompForSVideo_Aud_F> NOTE: Use an Analog Initialize to send a decimal input signal to the symbol. NOTE: Returned values match values that were selected for the <VidInput Select> and <AudInput Select> inputs. Microphone Controls The Microphone Controls module is built into slot 02 of the QM-FTMCSC. The unit provides two microphone/line level inputs labeled MIC 1/LINE 1 and MIC 2/LINE 2, with muting, phantom power, noise gating, and level monitoring. In addition, auto-compensation models provide four bands of equalization (160Hz, 500Hz, 1. 2kHz, and 3kHz). The microphone audio is routed to the MIC 1 and MIC 2 channels of the QM output together with video and stereo program audio. 36 · FlipTop Media Center with Storage Compartment: QM-FTMCSC Operations & Installation Guide - DOC. 6307A Crestron QM-FTMCSC FlipTop Media Center with Storage Compartment QM-FTMCSC Symbol ­ Detail View of Microphone Controls The parameters that are associated with QM inputs are stored in the transmitter. The DSP that does the compensation and EQ are in the receiver, but the settings now travel with the audio signal. When you have switchers in-between the transmitter and receiver, the program does not have to keep track of the routes and recall the preset in the receiver for these functions. Now the receiver automatically gets this information when the route is made, with no programming required. In addition we send the Cresnet ID (or a user defined number for systems with multiple Cresnets), which will be used by the receiver to automatically recall the video peaking/gain/skew parameters. Operations & Installation Guide ­ DOC. 6307A FlipTop Media Center with Storage Compartment: QM-FTMCSC · 37 FlipTop Media Center with Storage Compartment Crestron QM-FTMCSC QM-FTMCSC Microphone Control - Signal Descriptions SIGNAL TYPE AND NAME Digital inputs: <Mic1Mute> <Mic2Mute> Digital outputs: <Mic1Mute-F> <Mic2Mute-F> DESCRIPTION Mutes the MIC 1/LINE 1 or MIC 2/LINE 2 audio for as long as the input is high. High/1 (level sensitive) = Mute audio Low/0 = Un-mute audio Indicates that the corresponding MIC/LINE input is muted. High/1 = Mic audio is muted; Low/0 = Mic audio is not muted Enables noise gating for MIC 1/LINE 1 or MIC 2/LINE 2, for as long as the input is high. Gating eliminates unwanted background noise that could prove distracting when amplified. The noise gate will not pass an audio signal unless it is above the threshold, set by the <GatingLevel> input. High/1 (level sensitive) = Enable gating Low/0 = Disable gating Indicates the current status of the noise gate for the corresponding MIC/LINE input. High/1 = Gating is enabled Low/0 = Gating is disabled Indicates that the signal level on MIC 1/LINE 1 or MIC 2/LINE 2 has exceeded the <GatingLevel>. High/1 = Gating level exceeded Low/0 = Gating level not exceeded Indicates that the signal level on MIC 1/LINE 1 or MIC 2/LINE 2 has exceeded the nominal level. The nominal indication is reported at 10% of the maximum level supported by the hardware, or 20dB below the input clip level. [. . . ] Authorized returns must be shipped freight prepaid to CRESTRON, 6 Volvo Drive, Rockleigh, N. J. 07647, or its authorized subsidiaries, with RMA number clearly marked on the outside of all cartons. Shipments arriving freight collect or without an RMA number shall be subject to refusal.
