Introduction
TRANSMITTERS
The QT-
5100
series transmitters are rugged, small, at least sweatproof and have long battery life. In addition, the
AquaMic is waterproof (IP-68 certified to 100’) and the PlayerMic is flexible.
REMOTE CONTROL AUDIO SYSTEM (RCAS)
The Q5X remote control system is referred to as Remote Control Audio System (RCAS). The RCAS manages the
transmitter settings rather than having settings adjusted on the transmitters. RCAS operates via RF and transmits
though walls, clothing, uniforms, costumes and over longer distances than non-RF types of transmitter control.
Remote operation eliminates the need to physically handle the transmitters after they are installed on the user.
The RCAS is available in 2 gateway formats described below; Handheld MicCommander (QG-H2) or Network
Gateway (QG-N3). Either format can be connected to MicControl software to allow the interface to manage up to
100 transmitters on a computer. The Network Gateway can be used to setup different control zones or to extend
the control range of the RCAS System. RCAS allows the user to view, monitor and adjust any transmitter within
the control range, specifically:
•
The transmitter power state (ON or STBY) to conserve battery life when not in use.
•
RF power and UHF frequency in the event of RF interference.
• Mic mute and mic gain.
•
Transmitter naming and grouping for easy control.
HANDHELD MICCOMMANDER (QG-H2)
The QG-H2 MicCommander is a handheld, stand-alone device used to control up to 32 transmitters (as well as
legacy analog QT-5000 and digital QT-AD10 transmitters). A transmitter can be remotely configured using the
simple interface of the MicCommander without physical access to the transmitter. The MicCommander operates
independently from any other gateway or computer but can be connected to a computer by a USB cable to utilize
MicControl software. It can override any setting made by the MicControl software and vice versa.
