Solution Overview
| Requirement | Notes |
|---|---|
| On wall volume control | An ARC-K1e enables control of overall room volume. |
| HTML5 web dialing | Symetrix ARC-WEB browser based dialer can be used by PC’s or mobile devices for dialing. |
| Super-user control screen | Composer generated SymVue file for dialing and volume control running on a Windows based touch screen controller. |
| Networked microphones | 6 x Audio-Technica ATND8677 Dante microphones. |
| Push to talk buttons | Composer software facilitates direct integration of the push to talk features of the microphones. |
| Cisco and Asterisk SIP-based VoIP interface | The Symetrix 2 Line VoIP Interface Card installs into the Radius AEC. |
| 2 stereo auxiliary line level inputs | Connect directly to the Radius AEC line level inputs. |
| Auto mixing | A separate Gain-Sharing auto mixer is employed for the microphone signals being sent to the far end and also for local voice lift as required. |
| Comprehensive loudspeaker management | Radius AEC programmed from Composer with Speaker Manager and Compressor Modules. |
Radius AEC
- Universal DSP building block with a 64×64 channel Dante™ network audio port.
- 8 AEC inputs, 4 aux inputs, 8 outputs.
- Configurable input/output option card slot reduces total system cost.
- Industry leading audio performance specifications..
2 Line VoIP Interface Card
- Natively integrates with Cisco and Asterisk SIP-based call platforms. Supports both narrow and wide-band audio codecs and is capable of a broad range of telephony functions including dial, hold, resume, transfer, do not disturb and conference.
- The 2 Line VoIP Interface Card is well suited for applications in conferencing, paging, remote monitoring and broadcast.
- Easy to deploy and manage. The intuitive configuration software is accessible from both the AV and VoIP LANs giving AV integrators and IT/VoIP administrator’s easy access for configuration and maintenance.
ARC-K1e
- It looks like a single volume control but it’s actually two. Push the knob in to toggle between the two rotary encoders. An LED indicates the active control.
- An 8-segment LED ladder shows the volume level.
- Hardware lockout pins accommodate an installer supplied key switch.
- Power and signal arrive and depart via CAT-5/6.
- Supports “idle” mode for light-sensitive environments such as theaters.
- Furnished with a standard, white, single gang Decora faceplate and splash resistant overlay.
Composer
- Composer is an award winning CAD program used to create site file designs perfectly suited to each and every application.
- Management of all aspects of audio routing, processing, mixing, user control and security for Edge, Radius and Prism series DSPs and accessories.
- Native configuration and control of select Dante third-party endpoints.
- Over 600 DSP modules and dozens of control and logic modules.
SymVue
- SymVue is a network-based application for Windows PCs, touchscreen PCs, and tablets.
- Control screens are authored in Composer from which SymVue runtime versions are generated.
- Important control parameters from one or multiple DSPs are easily consolidated onto user friendly screens.
- Multiple and concurrent instances of SymVue may be deployed across a control network.
- Parameter changes are always in sync between Composer, ARC Wall Panels, ARC-WEB, third-party controllers, and SymVue.
ARC-WEB
- A unique instance of the ARC-WEB Dialer may be enabled/disabled for each telephony interface.
- Each ARC-WEB Dialer instance controls two lines, two assignable volumes and mutes per line, 20 speed dial locations shared between lines, and up to 16 presets shared between lines.
- Each ARC-WEB Dialer instance may be protected with a unique username/password.
- Web App enabled, so ARC-WEB Dialers may be saved to your mobile device’s home page for instant access appearing as a native app.
- Supported on the latest and most popular Windows and Mac OSX browsers as well as Android and iOS devices.
