FAQs

Explore our FAQ section to learn more.

Will your push-to-talk conference systems be compatible with my PA system?

Our conference systems are compatible with nearly every professional audio-visual public announcement system. Our control unit provides line level out via RCA connectors and Auxiliary outputs for standard compatibility options. All conference microphones will be summed then provided as an output to the mixer.

What is the cabling type for your wired conference system and how many extension cables will need?

Our wired tabletop microphones are connected via 7-PIN Din connectors. It is a secure and reliable connection. Moving the conference units on the furniture will not unplug a connection. Each microphone comes with a built-in speaker, and they are connected in Daisy chain to one another. They also come with 2-meter (6.5 ft) cable attached, and you may need additional cables depending on the Microphone layout. Our cable options include: 3, 5, 10 and, 20-meter cables.

Is there a maximum number of delegate microphones I can have?

The CS-300 Conference and Discussion System is ideal for discussions and meetings of up to 150 people. Each control unit supplies the power for up to 50 delegate and chairman units. If you have 90 delegates for example, you will need to add a second control unit for the additional 40 microphones.

How many control units can be added to a single system?

Using our EXK accessory you can connect up to three control units together in a single system, thus allowing a maximum of 150 microphones working in tandem.

I was looking into getting a wireless push to talk conference system but heard they may cause interference.

We do not recommend getting a wireless push to talk conference system. High quality wireless push to talk systems are usually much more expensive than wired ones. And if you get a cheap, low quality one, you most probably get interference. Also, they can be an inconvenience by having to charge the units all the time. Our wired push to talk conference systems have single-cable daisy chain interconnection and interferences do not usually occur making them highly reliable for your conferencing needs.

Do the microphone units turn themselves off automatically when they haven’t been in use in a while?

Only on timer mode, you can set them to open mode so they will stay on indefinitely. You switch between modes from the control unit.

Does a participant need to hold down their microphone’s button while they’re talking?

No, they only need to press it once to start talking and again when they’ve finished.

How many participants can be talking at the same time?

Assuming each participant has their own microphone then up to four with delegate units, while there’s no limit for chairman units to be lit at the same time.

How many microphones can be daisy-chained together?

Each control unit features two trunks on their back; to each one you can connect a daisy chain of up to 25 units, so in total you can use up to 50 mics with a single control unit.

Can the CS-300 system be connected to a computer for Zoom or similar virtual meetings?

Yes. If your system includes the CU-300USB control unit with a USB-C port, it can be connected directly to a computer using a USB cable for use with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and similar virtual meeting platforms.

This allows participants in the room to communicate with remote participants using the CS-300 conference microphones and speakers.

Note: Direct USB connectivity is available only with the CU-300USB control unit. Older CS-300 systems without a USB-C port require a separate USB adapter pack, which includes a USB interface and RCA cables. The adapter pack is sold separately.

Can I record my meetings?

The control unit in the CS-300 system has a recording output to connect to a digital recorder.

In the CS-300 Manual - 5.7 "Connecting a Telephone Coupler", does that mean we could connect a phone and the voice from the other end of phone could be heard from the internal speaker of Chairman unit and Delegate unit? And can you recommend a telephone coupler?

Yes, but not directly, you can connect to a land line using a digital hybrid. We can recommend the Telos Hx1.

Can I use the CS-300 for a teleconference over the phone?

Yes. It’s possible. You should get a phone adapter specific to your phone model with audio input and output connectors to connect directly to the CU-300.
