IQ NETWORK
`IQ SOFTWARE
Type Here
Crown's IQ Network is controlled by powerful yet
easy-to-use IQ IQwic software, as well as
Soundweb London. The intuitive interface pro-
vided in both IQwic
TM
and IQ for Windows soft-
ware suites makes the system so easy to operate,
even a novice can effectively use an IQ Network.
Comprehensive on-line help for every operation
and IQ component is just a click away.
Beneath this simple interface, custom control
features provide the in-depth control required by
experienced audio professionals. Customized
control screens can be designed to match the
floor plans and functional flow of a facility, ensur-
ing faster implementation and increased usabili-
ty.
All software suites feature multiple levels of pass-
word security, which minimizes unauthorized use
and makes security procedures more manage-
able than ever. Access can be easily defined for
individual users, from system monitoring access
only to full access for complete system configu-
ration.
IQwic, short for IQ Windows Intelligent Control,
offers all of the features and functions of prior IQ
for Windows software, such as IQ's “drag and
drop” functionality, then adds a new “system
view” feature that shows product interconnec-
tions (including CobraNet audio signal routing)
as well as product performance. IQwic allows
you to control and monitor components that use
either TCP/IQ (Ethernet) or the older IQ Bus (cur-
rent loop) for control. The included IQ Gateway
program consolidates the two different technolo-
gy platforms so they appear within IQwic as one
system—completely seamless to the installer or
operator.
The IQ for Windows software suite allows you to
control and monitor components that use the IQ
Bus (current loop) for control. It also includes
IQNET Server, which allows you to control an IQ
Bus system from multiple computers over a
TCP/IP network.
