Important remarks

For customers in the EU and in the USA

Our equipment has been tested and complies with the requirement of the CE test. This guarantees the protection

against harmful interferences, when the equipment is operating in a commercial environment. If the unit is not

proper installed to this user manual it may causes radio interferences. Any changes or modifications not explicit

approved in this manual could void your authority to operate this equipment.

For customers in the United Kingdom

The wires in the main lead are colored in accordance to the following codes:

Green-and-yellow: Earth

Blue: Neutral

Brown Live

If the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this unit are not corresponding with the coloured markings of the

terminals in your plug, so please proceed as follows:

The green-and-yellow wire must be connected to the plug terminal marked with the letter E, with the safety earth

symbol or with green-and-yellow colour. The blue wire must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N

or with black colour. The brown wire must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or with red colour.

The equipment must be connected to earth!

Safety

Check that the operating voltage of the unit is identical with the voltage of your local mains power. If a voltage

conversion is required, consult your BRÄHLER ICS dealer or qualified personnel.

Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel

before it will be used again. Unplug the unit from the wall outlet or set the Main Power switch to OFF if it is not used

for several days. To disconnect the cord, pull it out holding the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

Installation

Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat accumulation. Do not place the unit on a surface (rugs,

blankets, etc.) that may block the ventilation holes.

Do not install the unit in locations near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, nor in places exposed to direct

sunlight, excessive dust or humidity, mechanical vibration or shock.

To avoid condensation do not install the unit where the temperature may increase rapidly.

Cleaning

To keep the surface of the housing in a proper condition, periodically clean it with a soft cloth. Large staining may

be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with a mild detergent. Never use organic solvents such as thinners or

abrasive cleaners since these might damage the surface.

Repacking

Save the original shipping box and packing material. For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as originally packed

from the factory.

If not supplied with the equipment, a complete transportation and storage box system is available from BRÄHLER

ICS. We recommend using this system for long-term protection and care.

CDSVAN MSI8V

Overview

The Compact Transmitter MSI8V is used within the CDSVAN Conference System for transmission of 8 audio

channels by infrared light.

System function

The audio signals are converted into frequency modulated infrared light and then transmitted by means of

INFRACOM Radiators HLN82, which are directly connected to the MSI8V. The original (OR) and up to 7 other

languages can be simultaneously transmitted on different carrier frequencies by narrowband frequency modulation.

Infrared radiators transmit the information carried by the audio channels in the form of frequency-modulated

infrared light. The transmitted signals are received by the INFRACOM Receiver IRX and can be monitored by

headphones. Receivers can be moved at will anywhere within the area that is fully illuminated by the radiators.

They can be switched to receive up to 32 channels.

With miniature-switches on the front panel the frequency band can be chosen and the channels can be switched

ON or OFF. With a rotating switch it is possible to assign up to 32 transmission channels.

3 infrared transmitter diodes on the front panel allow monitoring for the technician without radiators.

LEDs on the front panel are indicating the operation mode: channel ON (red) and audio signal available (green).

Use

In combination with the digital microphone management system CDSVAN, the system can provide the best

possible communication facilities for organized events that need to use several languages.

Each and every participant (a term often used is "delegate") can use the microphone system to speak, and what he

or she says will be translated simultaneously so that other delegates will be able to listen to it in one of the several

languages. This technique permits direct communication in several languages even at very large scale events.

It is a simple matter to set up the INFRACOM system in such a way that it is protected against eavesdropping from

outside. Since all information is transmitted in the form of light waves, it is possible to use opaque material as

necessary to limit the area to which it is to be transmitted. Dark curtains drawn across windows, for instance, are

enough to shield a room reliably from the outside world.

Although the CDSVAN system is most commonly used in combination with an INFRACOM interpretation system

and microphone-management system it is also possible to use it for other purposes.

During organized events, for instance, it is possible to use infrared light to transmit information to individual

participants wearing receivers without disturbing anyone else present.

Another example might be museums applications. There it is possible to provide information on individual exhibits

by means of infrared light radiated only to a limited area in front of the particular exhibit. Visitors listen to the

information with receivers and headphones.

MSI8V CDSVAN

Compact transmitter MSI8V

Front View

The CDSVAN Compact Transmitter MSI8V is part of the Congress Data System systems VAN (Virtual Audio

Network), which serves the cordless sound transmission by means of infrared light.

The sound signal is thereby converted into a frequency-modulated infrared light signal and emitted via transmitting

diodes. With special INFRACOM® receivers the light signal is recorded and re-converted into a sound signal,

which can then be heard on a set of headphones. Different frequencies of up to 32 channels can be transmitted

simultaneously with an FM narrow band modulation.

The CDSVAN Compact Transmitter MSI8V is used for modulating the sound signals on the different carrier

frequencies and for signal amplification.

The Compact Transmitter consists of a 19" housing (2HU).

Eight channels can be transmitted with one MSI8V (usually defined as Original + 7 languages).

On the front right-hand side of the Compact Transmitter MSI8V there is a POWER switch with a green ON LED

which shows whether the transmitter is switched on. Next to this there are three infrared test diodes for monitoring

the IR-signal even without IR-Radiator.

The operating elements of the eight infrared channels are also on the front side of the console.

Each infrared channel consists of a green AF LED for the original voice and interpreter voice, an ON LED, an ON /

OFF switch, two frequency band switches and a rotary switch for channel setting. This can be used to set the

channels independently of the frequency band switch.

Each channel can be set from OR - Ch31.
