Introduction

FiliBuster combines clear traffic-light type signalling with a simple-to-use

timekeeping system. The intuitive control module has been designed especially for

non-technical users so that formal timekeeping can be easily managed in a wide

variety of applications.

Signalling to speakers to ensure that everything runs to time is the key to a smooth,

professional meeting and the FiliBuster silently prompts presenters when to begin

speaking (green light), when to summarise (amber light) and when to finish (red

light). Visual feedback to a timekeeper and/or the meeting chairperson can also be

provided via a variety of traffic light or numeric displays.

Designed for reliability and versatility, FiliBuster is based on AV-industry-proven

rugged design, uses readily available 3pin XLR (mic) cable connectors and the

system can be set up in just 1-2 minutes, or be permanently installed if required.

Meeting Control Made Easy!

We hope that FiliBuster exceeds your expectations and welcome any feedback that

you have about this or any of our products.

Thank you.

er supply lead. The power source outlet should always be near the FiliBuster main unit

and easily accessible. Ensure the power supply lead cannot be walked on or damaged

by items placed on or against it. Do not use if the power supply lead is damaged.

Using the device with a damaged power supply lead may expose you to electric shock

or other hazards. Check the condition of the power supply lead regularly. Contact your

dealer or service centre immediately for a replacement if damaged.

in environments where there is excessive heat, dust, moisture, chemicals, vibration or

mechanical shock.

Slots and Openings. These are designed for ventilation and to avoid overheating.

Always ensure these openings remain clear. Do not attempt to insert anything into

these openings under any circumstances. If liquids have been spilled on, or objects

have fallen into the product it must be checked by a qualified technician before reusing.

Servicing. Do not attempt to service this product yourself. Should an unauthorised person

attempt to either open the covers or service our products, it may invalidate your Limited

Factory Warranty. In addition, opening or removing covers and screws may expose you to

electric shocks or other hazards. Refer all servicing to a qualified service personnel.

Setting Up

All connections can be made using standard 3-pin XLR (mic) cables. FiliBuster can be set

up and operated over a combined total distance of no more than 100 meters (300’) from the

remote displays.

Note: A combination of CombiLamps and numeric displays can be used with the sys-

tem using standard mic cable splitter (3-pin XLR type), such as our own Splixler prod-

uct, thereby allowing for multiple displays, for instance displays located on more than

one lectern. The sum of the total distance between all displays and an output on the

main unit should not exceed 100m (300’), further than this or more than 2 displays on an

output will require a CDSplit, 1 in and 4 out active Splitter.

General Features

Count Up or Down. The system can be programmed to run a timer that counts up

or down. Maximum time is 95 minutes.

Count Below Zero. The system will continue counting below zero when in

countdown up to a maximum of –9:55

Colour Changes. The system can be programmed to change the colour of the

remote display at pre-determined times during a timer preset. This provides a means

of emphasising elapsed or remaining times. The remote displays can change from

green to amber to red for remaining times. Selecting the Direct buttons during a preset

will remove the automatic time changes to manual or direct control.

Presets. 4 preset buttons allow times to be stored in both count up and count down

mode. The presets must be used for count down modes. The button marked Up/Dn

will glow when in count down mode and is only selectable in program mode.

Note: The twin LED colon between the hours and minutes digits on the remote

displays is coloured red when the digits are either amber or green, and green when

the digits turn red.

Combi-Lamp and Combi-Tower. In addition to the numerical remote displays, tri-

coloured ‘Intelligent Lamps’ can be used to simply display the colour changes to

further emphasise the stages of the elapsed or remaining time. The lamps will change

colour in the same way as the numerical remote displays, according to the

programming of the Preset that is running.

Pause Mode. The unit can be paused at any time using the Pause button. This is

seen as a quick flash on both the remote displays and/or Combi-Lamps/Towers to

show the time has been paused.

Operating Instructions

Unpacking and Connections. Unpack the main unit and place on a flat surface

within easy reach of the operator.

Unpack and position the remote displays where they can be viewed by the presenter

and connect them to the main unit using standard 3-pin XLR (mic) cables observing

maximum distance and any splits.

Apply power to the main unit using the universal IEC power connector input on the back

of the main unit. Filibuster will power up with the display, flash a row of dashes—

Minus signs across the display before going to blank and the buttons will all come on to

their preset dim levels.

Count Up

To start a count up time—similar to that of a stopwatch. Press any of the traffic light

buttons and the time will start and in the colour you have selected. You can change the

colour at any point in this mode by selecting another button of that colour while the time

increments to a maximum time of 95 minutes.

Selecting pause will cause the time in numbers to flash with a minus sign and then

back to the paused time. This will show as a quick flash with CombiLamp and

CombiTower. So that it is indicated on these colour only displays that something has

happened, as in pause.

Hitting the reset button will stop the count and return all the displays to blank.

Programming a preset.

Count Down has to be pre-programmed to a preset as it needs to know what time to

start from.

Hit the reset button to ensure everything is cleared then push and hold the reset and

then the preset you want to store a time to. Hold both buttons for about 5 seconds until

you see a row of dashes on the numeric screen and then release the buttons. You are

now in program mode.

The green button is now lit to say it will start at 00:00 for count up. (see later) to change

to count down select the Up/Dn button and it will glow brightly for CountDown. The

green button will go out, as it needs to know what time to start from, and the time will

also show 30:00 as a starting point.

Environmental

WEEE and RoHS Compliance. CountDown Touch and its associated accessories

have been manufactured and sold in accordance with the requirements of the ECEE

and RoHS directives. Please return all end-of-life items to your supplier, or your local

Interspace Industries representative directly, for appropriate disposal.

Packaging Materials:

Using the Pause and the Reset buttons you can now adjust the time. The pause

button on its own will increment time. Holding the Reset button and the Pause button

will decrement time. Either step on every 5 seconds manually or hold for auto repeat.

Set the time you want your total time to be - say you want 3 minutes then have 3

minutes on the display and hit the Green button, the green button is now bright. Select

a time for the amber, e.g.1 minute and hit the Amber button. The amber button is now

bright. Lastly select a time for red, e.g. 10 seconds and hit the red button. It will flash

red and the display will go out to say it has been stored under that preset. Please test.

For Count Up enter programming mode the same way and ensure the Up/Dn button is

dim and the display is showing 00:00 and the green button is bright. Enter the time you

want the system to go amber and hit the amber button. Then the time you want it to go

to red where it will save that time to that preset.

At any point you can hit a direct button to take control and come out of auto mode.

Dim Setting. As environments will have different ambient lighting we have provided

a mode to set the dim level. Disconnect the unit from any power and wait 5 seconds.

Press and hold the Reset button and apply power while still holding the Reset button.

The traffic light buttons will then cycle through 4 different settings. Release the Reset

button at the desired brightness. The unit will store this and then reset it itself ready for

action!
