USED AS IS Item pulled from a working installation. DESCRIPTION The RCS -2000 source-assignment panel is the first system available to offer remote-controlled switching of party-line assignments for medium to large size systems. The main switching unit is the RCS-2000, an 8-source by 24-destination assignment panel. “Sources” are typically the channels from a main or master station or party-line interfaces from a Matrix Plus or similar system. The “destinations” are typically remote stations, beltpacks, or other interfaces. Once programmed, different presets can be selected with either a contact closure, PC, dedicated remote, or directly from the front panel. The front panel can be “locked” to prevent unauthorized tampering. Up to six RCS-2000's can be wired together in various configurations for up to a 15-source by 72-destination system. Unlike any previous party-line sourceassignment panels, the RCS-2000 is programmable with a PC (Windows 98/586 or better) using its companion software program, or it can be programmed with the optional RCU-60 wired remote. The software offers a "virtual station" where the user can create preset configurations on the PC and then upload them to the RCS-2000. If desired, the PC or wired remote can remain connected during system operation and offer real-time remote control of the system. By utilizing RS-232 data connections, the PC or RCU-60 can be located up to 300 feet (90m) away from the RCS-2000’s location. This provides not only convenience and flexibility in system control, but can also save money during installation: the assignment panels no longer need to be located in the control room area. This shortens intercom cable runs (often improving intercom system performance) and allows more flexibility in location of the panels, both potential cost-savers. More importantly, a system operator can change to a different, preprogrammed system configuration with a single button push or keystroke. Applications will typically include any facility with at least four channels of party-line and twelve or more "drops" where the assignment set-ups change on a regular basis: performing arts facilities, broadcast studios and remote trucks, convention centers, and houses of worship. Additional applications include simultaneous language translation as well as virtual-reality gaming and teaching/training facilities that use varying-sized teams in simulators. ®
