Introduction Q-Sys™ is a platform of software and hardware products that provide the system designer and system operator with all the tools necessary to design, configure, and manage medium to large scale audio systems. In addition to the primary signal processing and system management components that make up a Q-Sys audio system, the Q-Sys solution includes peripheral components that offer services such as remote management and paging.
The Q-Sys Q-LAN Network The Q-Sys solution is designed to be deployed on QSC’s high performance Q-LAN network. Q-LAN is a proprietary network implementation that bundles several industry standard protocols into a data transport solution appropriate for live performance multimedia environments. Q-LAN offers gigabit data rates, device and network redundancy, 32-bit floating point audio data transfers, and low-latency support on local area network deployments.
Unpacking There are no special unpacking precautions. However, it is recommended that you keep the original packing materials for reuse in the rare event that service is required.
Mounting the Mounting Bracket to a 2-Gang Electrical Box - New Construction The new-construction, 2-gang box should be installed in the wall, during construction, with the PoE enabled Q-LAN Ethernet cable pre-wired. Refer to Figure 2. 1. Place the Mounting Bracket on the wall aligning the holes in the Mounting Bracket (2) with the holes in the 2-gang box (1). 1 2. Use four Mounting Bracket Screws (3) and an appropriate screwdriver to secure the Mounting Bracket to the 2-gang box. 3.
Mounting the Mounting Bracket to a 2-Gang Electrical Box - Old Construction There are a number of manufacturers of old-construction 2-gang electrical boxes. Because of this, there may be a need to slightly modify the electrical box to allow for proper installation of the TSC-3. Below is an example. The modification procedure will be the same in most cases. NOTE: This procedure may be accomplished with the electrical box installed in the wall, or not. 2 Refer to Figure 4. 4 1.
Mounting the Surface-Mount Back Box This procedure covers mounting the Surface-Mount Back Box onto an electrical connection box, and the Mounting Bracket onto the back box. 1 2 The Surface-Mount Back Box is designed to be used in conjunction with an installed, electrical-type, connection box. The back box has several hole patterns to accommodate multiple connection box types. The connection box must be no less than approximately 1.5” (38.1 mm) deep to accommodate the Ethernet connection.
Mounting the Mounting Bracket to 5/8" Drywall This procedure uses the two Drywall Clamps, one on the top, one on the bottom, of a rectangular hole cut into 5/8" (15.875 mm) drywall. 3.875" (98.43 mm) 3.5" (88.9 mm) 3 2 1 4 — Figure 8 — Refer to Figure 8 1. Locate the spot where you want to mount the TSC-3. Ensure there is enough room on all sides and behind. The wall must be at least 2.38” (60.5 mm) deep to accommodate the TSC-3 and the Q-LAN Ethernet connection.
Computer Requirements & Software Installation Configuration of the TSC-3 requires a Q-Sys Core and a PC running Q-Sys Designer software, both connected to the Q-LAN network. The latest version of Q-Sys Designer may be downloaded from the QSC website (http://www.qscaudio.com/). Additionally, all Q-Sys Core Processors include a Q-Sys Designer CD-ROM.
Using the TSC-3 Touchscreen For the most part, using the TSC-3 depends on the design created for your installation by your system designer. There are, however, a few general characteristics that apply to all User Control Interface (UCI) designs. • If there are multiple pages in a UCI, you can drag your finger horizontally across the screen to change pages. • Buttons operate by simply touching the button. • Faders and knobs operate by touching the screen and dragging your finger across the screen.
