The “Operation Mode” determines the behavior of the microphone system.

• Auto (or Automatic) mode allows for the conference units to be switched on immediately upon touching the ‘Speak’ button.

This is indicated by a red light in the ‘Speak’ lamp and in the light ring in the gooseneck microphone. Touching the ‘Speak’ button again will turn the microphone off

A Chairman Unit can be considered as is always being in Auto or VOX mode.

• Manual mode features a request list, where

‘Delegates’ are inserted in a queue upon touching the ‘Speak’ button. This is confirmed by a steady green light in the ‘Request’ indication in the delegate unit. It is possible to cancel the request by touching the button again.

The delegate unit can only be switched ‘On’ using the CU 5905 browser interface on a PC/iPad or from a control system like AMX ® or Crestron ®.

This will be indicated by red light in the ‘Speak’ lamp in the conference unit. At this point the delegate can switch off the microphone by touching the ‘Speak’ button.

Note: Manual mode is never selected/used on CU

5905 if a Browser, AMX ®, Crestron ® or other

“Control Facility” is not connected.

• FIFO is an automated mode. The conference unit functions in the same way as in ‘automatic’ mode as long as the number of turned on delegate units is less or equal to the selected maximum speakers.

When the max. number is reached, the next delegates touching their ‘Speak’ button will be placed in the request queue until the maximum requests is reached. The green ‘Request’ lamp in the delegate unit in top of the queue will flash slowly indicating that this unit is the next to be switched ‘On’

The green ‘Request’ lamp in the other delegate unit in the queue will light up steadily.

When one of the units speaking is switched ‘Off’, the first delegate unit in the queue is automati‐ cally switched ‘On’.

This mode will normally be used with only 1 as

10 External Control Application Protocol

The DDS 5900 Digital Conference System features an

Ethernet connection with the purpose of providing an interface for controlling and monitoring of the system. By setting up a simple (raw) TCP/IP socket connection to the CU 5905 Central Unit control options are available.

This document describes the TCP/IP raw socket protocol for communicating with the DDS 5900

Microphone System. This protocol provides a short set of commands, enabling a third part control application to monitor and/or control system status of a DDS 5900 Microphone System.

Some examples of functionally available using the protocol:

• Setting a microphone in speak or in request

• Retrieving a list of seats available in the system.

This interface supports applications developed by customers, so the protocol is deliberately kept simple to avoid complexity. The external control application protocol offers a mean for supplementing the control functionality available through the DDS 5900 Web interface and the CU 5905 display, however some commands and settings available in the web interface and on the CU 5905 interactive display are not available using the ‘External Control Application

Protocol’

Customer applications can include but are not limited to AMX ® or Crestron ® room control systems, PC or micro controller based applications e.g. for button mimics and camera control applications.

10.1 General Protocol behaviour

10.1.1 TCP/IP socket connection

A TCP/IP socket connection to the CU 5905 must be established for the external control application protocol to become available. Configuration of the CU 5905 connection to the Ethernet must be defined from the CU interactive front plate control/WEB interface, and an IP address for the CU 5905 must be assigned in the network.

Choose either a static IP address or an IP address assigned through DHCP. It is convenient to ensure, that the CU

5905 ends up with the same IP address at each start up.

Knowing the IP address, the only additional information required for setting up a TCP/IP connection is the Port

Number:

Port Number = 3142

Example: Test connection to CU via Putty:

If the CU 5905 is assigned IP address 192.168.1.100, the external application must connect the TCP/IP socket to the address 192.168.1.100:3142.

a connection can be set up using a simple terminal program like Putty ®.

1. Download at www.putty.org

2. Start Putty.

3. Insert IP address and Port Number.

4. Select ‘Raw’ for the Connection Type.

5. Press ‘Open’ to establish connection to the CU. Control is now possible.

User Manual DDS 5900 45

Danish Interpretation Systems User Manual

6. Give command ‘help’ to see a list of commands available.

10.1.2 Command structure (from External Control to CU 5905)

To control the CU an external control application sends commands to CU 5905 included in command lines.

Commands lines are build up in a very simple manner:

<command><SP><data><CR>

<command><SP><data><LF>

<SP> Space ‐ 0x20 = 32

<CR>

<LF>

Carriage return ‐ 0x0D = 13

Line Feed ‐ 0x0A = 10

Command lines are terminated by Carriage Return <CR> or Line Feed <LF> or both. In order to be able to communicate with Windows systems, Linux systems or other systems, the CU understands both types of command line terminations.

Notice also, there is a space between the command and data. If a command does not carry any data, space is possible but not required.

The CU is not sensitive to upper/lower case.

Example: mic_on 212<CR>

Turn on microphone a seat 212. Command = 'mic_on', data = '212'. The ‘mic_on’ command carries a seat number as data.

10.1.3 Command structure (from CU 5905 to External Control)

Command lines out of the CU 5905 are just as simple:

<command><SP><data><CR><LF>

<SP>

<CR>

<LF>

Space ‐ 0x20 = 32

Carriage return ‐ 0x0D = 13

Line Feed ‐ 0x0A = 10

Again, to satisfy most systems, the CU terminates command lines by including both <CR> and <LF>.

46 User Manual DDS 5900

Danish Interpretation Systems User Manual

10.1.4 Seat numbering

Conference units are identified by means of a seat numbers. Each conference unit is assigned a seat number. This is done automatically for all conference units, when they are connected to the CU 5905. The CU 5905 WEB interface is used to change seat numbering.

Seat numbers must be in the range from 1 to 65535.

10.1.5 CU 5905 reply to commands

Generally, a command from external application is replied to by the CU. But, reply to a command is produced only if actions are taken by the CU due to the command.

Example: When a ‘mic_on’ command results in a microphone being turned on, the CU replies with a ‘mic_on’ command. On the other hand, if a 'mic_on' command does not lead to turning on a microphone, the CU does not produce any reply.

There can be several reasons for the CU to reject turning on a microphone:

‐The microphone is already turned on

‐The microphone is no longer connected to the system.

‐Speak list is already full (‘max_speakers’), and delegate interrupt is not ‘on’.

10.1.6 Retrieving system status

The CU supports streaming of status. When an external control application issues a ‘mic_status’ or ‘audio_status’ command, the CU responds by sending the microphone system status. The same goes for ‘audio status’. Hereby, it is possible for an external control application to synchronize with the CU status.

10.2 Microphone Control

10.2.1 Commands from External Control to CU 5905

10.2.1.1 Turn on microphone

mic_on <seat no><CR>

Instruct the CU to turn on microphone at seat_no.

If the CU turns on the microphone, it will reply with a ‘mic_on’ command. And, if the microphone appeared in the r equest list, it is taken out of the request list, which makes the CU issue a ‘mic_request_off’ command as well.

10.2.1.2 Turn off microphone mic_off <seat no><CR>
