INCORPORATING THE CS-DUO INTO YOUR STAGE SETUP
The CS-DUO has been designed to easily integrate into a variety of different stage setups. The
following are some examples of how you can position your unit in order to easily view the color
screen and work with the controls.
MICROPHONE STAND MOUNTING
The MT-1 mic-stand mount is dual position. When it is attached to the bottom of your CS-DUO, it
can be attached to either the top of any standard microphone stand or to the vertical post. The MT-1
dual position microphone stand mount is available from your Livemix dealer.
TABLETOP USE
In some situations, you may wish to place your CS-DUO on a small table located on the stage. The
CS-DUO’s metal enclosure gives it a solid weight, ensuring that the unit will not be easily moved or
pulled off of any surface that it is placed on.
LONG ETHERNET CABLES
The CS-DUO receives both its audio data and power from a single network cable. Any CAT 5, CAT
5e, or CAT 6 cable will work with the CS-DUO.
Note that your CS-DUO may be located a fair distance from the MIX-16/32 that it is connected to,
so you may need a network cable that is somewhat longer than the ones sold at a typical office
or computer store. Consult your Pro Audio dealer for options of
network cables designed for the modern Pro Audio landscape, as
they will use stage-critical features such as a longer length, more
flexible and coilable cabling, and more rugged RJ-45 connectors.
The longest cable supported by the CS-DUO is 100 feet.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
While Livemix Data is transmitted over standard network cables, it is not in the format that a
network can read. For this reason, each CS-DUO needs to connect directly to the MIX-16/32. Do
not use splitters, couplers, or hubs between the CS-DUO and the MIX-16/32.
DO NOT CONNECT THE CS-DUO INTO AN ETHERNET NETWORK. THIS COULD DAMAGE
YOUR CS-DUO.
NOTE:
It is recommended that
you connect the CS-DUO
directly to the MIX-16/32
without any couplers,
splitters, or hubs in
between. Livemix may not
function properly or at all
with hubs and splitters.
