Required Connections
The MC requires Power, network, and USB connections.
DC In Connect the included DC power supply to DC In on the back panel. The supply is world-compatible (accepts 100–240 V,
50/60 Hz) and draws 150 W maximum.
LAN (RJ-45) Use CAT5 (or better) cable to connect the MC to the router included with your system. (Different routers are used for
standalone MC setups and multiple-unit installations.)
USB Connect external storage devices for data backup and software updates. The USB port is also used to connect the supplied
relay interface for multiple workstation setups.
Other Connections
Talkback Mic Output (XLR) Mic-level output for built-in talkback microphone. The output must be connected to a preamp with
48V phantom power, to obtain line-level output (phantom power is required because it is a condenser microphone).
Foot Switch (1/4-in Mono) The foot switch mirrors the operation of the Talkback switch on the MC surface. Connect a standard
two-conductor foot switch (such as a MIDI keyboard damper pedal) to the MC Foot Switch jack to toggle Talkback on/off.
Headphones (1/4-in Stereo) Thru connection to front panel headphone connector.
Service VGA and Keyboard (DB15HD, PS2) VGA video and keyboard connection (for service only).
EUCON Software Installation
The EUCON software installs components that enable bi-directional communication between the MC and the workstation. The
EUCON-WS version of the software must be installed on every workstation used with the MC. The EUCON-MC version is
installed on the MC when shipped and can be easily upgraded.
Uninstalling Previous Versions
The old version of the EUCON software must be uninstalled on the workstation before upgrading to the new version. Close all
applications and follow the procedure for Mac or Windows.
To uninstall on Mac:
Open a Finder window, navigate to the Applications folder, and run the EUCON-WS Uninstall program to remove the EUCON
software from the workstation.
To uninstall on Windows
Choose Start > All Programs > EUCON, and click Uninstall. The EUCON Uninstaller removes the EUCON software from the
workstation.
Proceed with installing the new EUCON software. Rebooting the computer before installing the new software is not necessary.
Attach the power supply to the MC before plugging into AC power or the unit may be damaged.
