Introduction

The DATEQ BCS50 mixer-series is especially developed to be used in a broadcastenvironment. The large number of built-in automations makes this mixer ideally suited in any self-supporting studio.

Frame

The BCS50 mixer is a modular system existing of a frame, a master module and free to choose input-modules. The frame can contain up to 16 input modules and a master module.

The power-supply is built into the frame.

Input modules

A large number of input modules is available:

The position and the number of modules is variable. The only limitation is the number of analogue telephone hybrids that can be used simultaneously (maximum 2 or 3, depending on the quality of the subscriber line).

When digital telephone hybrids are used more than 2 lines can be on the air simultaneously.

This is because digital hybrids have a better trans-hybrid attenuation.

Mastermodule

The BCS50 mastermodule has all the mix,- and output amplifiers and various volumecontrols. This module is placed at the most right position in the frame.

Meterbridges

The BCS50 meterbridge can house the following readouts:

•

BCS121: DCF77 atomic-clock/ timer/ stopwatch

•

Analogue moving-coil meter, or 2x 50 segment digital horizontal LED VU meter with peak indicator

•

BCS68: dual 2x 30 segment digital vertical LED VU meter with peak indicator

4 Introduction DATEQ BCS50 user manual EN

Outputs

PGM (program) output

The PGM-output is the main-output of the mixer. All channels with the PGM-switch pushed feed their signal to the PGM-buss. The PGM-signal is available on three XLRconnectors: mono, left and right. All these outputs are electronically balanced. Besides these outputs the BCS50 has three unbalanced PGM-outputs on 6.3mm stereo jacks

(PGM1/PGM2/PGM3). These connectors can be used link to other equipment located inside the studio, like amplifiers etc.

AUD (audition) output

All modules with the AUD-switch pressed will be audible on the AUD-output. The AUDoutput can for example be used to connect to various recorders. The AUD-volume control on the master will adjust the overall audition-volume. The unbalanced AUD-output is available on a 6.3mm stereo jack.

AUX (auxiliary) output

The auxiliary output can be used for a director-link. All channels can feed their signal to the AUX-buss. With an internal PRE/POST-jumper the signals source can be switched to pre-fader (independent of the fader) or post-fader (signals volume is dependent of the fader). The master-modules AUX-volume controls the overall AUX-level. The unbalanced

AUX-output is available on a 6.3mm stereo jack.

The AUX-buss may also be used to connect effect-equipment. The effect-return signal can be inserted at any normal input-module. You will have to turn off the AUX-switch at this channel to prevent a feed-back!

CR (control room) output

At this output the amplifier for the technical-room can be connected. The selection switches on the master determine the signal-source that will be heard on this output. All sources can be monitored.

This output can be muted automatically when a microphone in the technical-room is active to prevent an acoustical feedback.

STUDIO output

Connect the amplifier for the presentation-room here. This output can have the same signal as the CR output. It is also possible to switch to the AIR or the PGM signal.

ON-AIR 1 and 2 outputs

External ON-AIR indicators (like the DATEQ OA-1) can be connected to the ON-AIRoutputs. These two outputs are freely programmable with jumpers on the input modules.

When ON-AIR1 is activated the studio output is muted. When all the microphones in the studio are switched to ON-AIR1 an acoustical feedback will be prevented!

ANNOUNCER

The announcers headphones can be connected here. When the technician pushes the

TALK-button he will be audible on this output, otherwise the program signal or the CR signal (depending on the CR-switch on the master) can be heard.

EN DATEQ BCS50 user manual Introduction 5

GUEST

The guests headphones can be connected here. This output contains the PGM-signal, except when the PGM/TALKBACK switch on the master is pressed; then the output has the same signal as the ANNOUNCER-output. The guests will also hear the technician when he presses the TALK-button.

By switching the PGM/TALKBACK to PGM the guests will not become confused when the technician uses the TALK button.

Inputs

AIR/ SPARE1/ SPARE2 inputs

The AIR signal is to be used to connect the program-signal after it has gone all the way from the studio to the listener, for example with a tuner. At the SPARE inputs the processed studio signal can be returned, or the signal of a secondary studio can be connected. Keep in mind that these inputs are not electronically isolated.

When using a tuner connected to a cable-network earth-loops are created. To prevent earth-loops an isolation-transformer can be used in the audio-wires, or at the RFconnector.

TALKBACK IN

The external talkback-input can be used to connect a (to line-level amplified) directormicrophone. When the contact is made this microphone is routed to the PFL-buss, and the CR signal will automatically switch to PFL, so that everyone listening to the CR will hear the director. When the announcer must hear the director, the CR-switch on the master has to be pressed.

POWER

Mains input (115 or 230 VAC; internally selectable, 100 Watts).

DCF-ANT

Input for the active aerial supplied with the BCS121 clock-timer.

Description

The channel is activated when the fader is opened.

The channel is activated when the ON-key is pressed. When the fader is opened and the ON-lamp does not light up no audio will be fed through.

The after-fader signal is routed to the AUX-buss. Both jumpers (P6 and P7) have to be in the same position!

The pre-fader signal is routed to the AUX-buss. Both jumpers (P6 and

P7) have to be in the same position!

No ON-AIR outputs will be activated when the channel is switched on.

When the channel is switched on ON-AIR1 will be activated. The studio output will be muted to prevent an acoustical feedback.

When the channel is switched on ON-AIR2 will be activated.

When the PFL-switch is pressed the CR will switch automatically to

PFL. This makes the signal directly audible for the technician.

The signal is mixed to the PFL-buss, but the CR-selector will not automatically switch to PFL.

When the module is activated all PFL-buttons will reset and the CR output will be muted to prevent an acoustical feedback with the DJmicrophone. It is also possible to let the CR-selector switch to AIR or

PGM. This will be explained on page 29.

This function is disabled.

The phantompower (48V) is applied to the microphone-input. This is necessary when using condenser microphones. Check your microphones manual for more details.

The phantompower is disabled.

When the key is not pressed the outputs will be linked to PGM or to AIR.

By activating this function the announcer can talk to a guest on the telephone while he is off-air. To do this the announcers microphone and the telephone module must be switched to PFL. The technician can also talk to the guest by switching his own microphone to PFL.

PGM/AIR When the DJ-microphone is active the BCS50 master can automatically switch to the

+PFL AIR or PGM signal. With the PGM/AIR switch you can select between these two sources. When the mixer is used as a recording unit over the AUD-buss while the normal radio-signal is fed through the PGM-buss this function is unpractical. That is why this function can be disabled. The +PFL key makes it possible to monitor the program or the air signal (depending on the PGM/AIR switch) when listening to PFL, so that the technician can monitor the current program. The signal is added at a

-20dB level.

BCS121 clock/timer module

The BCS121 clock/timer-module receives its time-of-dayinformation from the German DCF77-transmitter at

Mainflingen (near Frankfurt). The range of this transmitter is approximately 1000 miles. Besides extreme accuracy, the

BCS121 keeps track of daylight-saving-time etc. Unique is the infra-red remote control for selecting operation mode and entering time.

Timer

The timer can be used counting up or down. The [MODE]-key selects the desired mode:

TIMER COUNTING UP

In the initial mode the BCS121 counts upwards from 0:00.0. This mode can be useful for keeping track of the elapsed time since the last record, jingle or other item was started.

Triggering the timer with a microphone-channel can be useful to monitor the length of the

‘spoken’ parts of a radio-program.

TIMER COUTING DOWN

To indicate the (approaching) end of a pre-recorded item, for example, the BCS121 can be set in the countdown-mode. The timer will count down from a set point to 0:00.0. This time can be entered with the remote control, for example:

[1] [2] [ENTER]

The timer will start counting down from 0:12.0.

TIMER COUNTING UP/DOWN

During an intro of a (music-) item the timer will count down to indicate the (approaching) end of the intro. When 0:00:0 is reached, the timer switches to indicating the elapsed time from the point where the timer was triggered. The intro-time can be set from the remote control the same way, for example:

[1] [2] [ENTER]

The timer will start counting down from 0:12:0 to 0:00:0, then counting up from 0:12:0.

36 BCS50 Technical specifications DATEQ BCS50 user manual EN

TIMER COUNTING DOWN TO A SET TIME

In this mode the timer indicates the remaining time until a set time is reached, for example the starting-time of commercials and/or news. Enter this time from the remote control unit, for example:

[1] [7] [5] [7] [3] [4] [ENTER]

...to count down to 17:57:34. There is an important distinction between this mode and the other modes. This mode can be run in ‘background’, independent from the other timermodes. Once the set-time is programmed, the timer can be started, stopped and reset in all other modes, while the countdown timer keeps running. If you switch back to this mode, the remaining time will be displayed again.

In case the set time is approaching with the timer in a different mode, a small blinking dot is displayed on the left of the timer-display for the last 30 seconds, to draw the users attention.

INPUT-MASK-MODE

For external triggering of the timer 8 switch-signals can be connected to the BCS121. Since it is not always desired to trigger the timer with all connected signals, each signal can be individually blocked out with the mask-option. In the initial situation all inputs are enabled, so the display will show ‘1234/ 5678’. With the [1] .. [8] - keys of the remote control unit each channel can be disabled or enabled. For example by pressing

[3] [5] [6] the display will show ‘12-4 / --78‘. This means channels 3, 5 and 6 are disabled. Inputs 1, 2, 4,

7 and 8 are enabled.

Please note that the BCS70 uses input 1 and 2 to control the timer, so only inputs 3 through 8 are available for user-specific signals. You should always have input 1 enabled. Input 2 can be enabled or disabled to use the timer in two different operating modes. If you enable input 2, each channel on the BCS70 which is configured to control the timer (by means of the RES setup-option) will restart the timer as soon as the channel is opened. If you disable input 2, the timer will run as long as there is at least one open channel on the BCS70 with the timer control setup-option selected.

Setting the time

During normal reception-conditions the clock will be synchronised within 2 minutes, and the right time will appear on the display. It is also possible to use the clock with the antenna not connected (‘free running’). In this case setting the clock to the right time can be done by entering the time from the remote control unit, by pressing [0] [0] [0] when in input mask mode. When this is done, ‘ / SEt ‘ will appear. For example:

[1] [7] [2] [8] [0] [0] [ENTER]

The clock starts running from 17:28:00.

When the clock is a little slow or fast it can be synchronised by pressing the [C] key at the whole hour when the timer is in counting-up-mode. This function is only available when no valid DCF-signal is received and the time-deviation is less than 3 minutes.

This function is available when your clock has firmware version 1.5 or higher. To check your firmware version go to the input-mask-mode and press the [C] key!

BCS121 antenna

The cable of the supplied DCF77-antenna can be extended without any problem (up to a maximum of 100 meters, 300 feet). Mount the aerial in a position where reception quality of the DCF77-transmitter is good. Be aware of the fact that the direction of the antenna is important. If the reception of the transmitter is good, the LED on the aerial will blink every second on a regular basis. If the LED doesn't blink, or blinks irregularly, reception is bad. The cause for a bad reception can often be found in computer-equipment nearby, or steel constructions in the building, blocking the long-wave signal of the transmitter.

CAUTION: The supplied antenna is not suitable for outside-mounting. The antenna is not waterproof, and the built-in electronic circuit will not operate properly below the freezing point and above 50 degrees Celsius.
