Audio/Video (A/V) Switches

The 16 x 16 Audio/Video Switcher can distribute up to sixteen (16) independent digital audio and video signals to any or all of its sixteen (16) digital audio and video outputs. The unit offers a large diagnostics window and select buttons to identify which A/V inputs are multiplexed to each of the outputs, enhancing the ability to identify and diagnose problems during installation.

The 32 x 32 Digital Audio Switcher can distribute up to thirty two (32) independent digital audio signals to any or all of its thirty two (32) digital audio outputs. The unit offers a large diagnostics window and select buttons to identify which A/V inputs are multiplexed to each of the outputs, enhancing the ability to identify and diagnose problems during installation.

 


Lighting Controls / Solid State:

The Solid State 6-Circuit Controller with Dimming is a software-controlled interface between the C-Stream Network and adjustable DC current devices such as dimmable lights or motors with speed control capabilities. Six solid-state switches control the external device current through the use of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). In addition, six high current relays are provided for isolated power.

 


Temperature Interface Controller:

The Digital POT Controller provides an interface between the C-Stream Network
and devices external to the C-Stream Network that require rheostat or potentiometer control. An installation requiring aircraft cabin control from locations other than the cockpit would be one example of using the Digital POT Controller. The resistance
range is dependent on the specific model and a wide range of controllable resistance values is available. And the Digital POT Controller also contains t wo optional DPDT relay outputs for external control.

Relay Controller:

The 16-Channel High Current Controller provides a software-controlled interface for electrically switching devices such as cabin lighting, window shades and other cabin amenities requiring simple on/off control. Sixteen high current (5 amps max) channels are provided for switching electrically isolated or power bus signals. Twelve buffered and configurable inputs are also provided for the input of discrete high/low level signals from external feedback devices. These switched input signal levels are 0 to 28VDC.

The 16-Channel Low Current Controller provides a software-controlled interface for electrically switching devices such as cabin lighting, window shades and other electrical devices requiring simple on/off control. Sixteen low current (2 amps max) channels are provided for switching electrically isolated or power bus signals. Twelve buffered and configurable inputs are also provided for the input of discrete high/low level signals from external feedback devices. These switched input signal levels are 0 to 28 VDC .

The 6-Channel Relay LC (Low Current) Controller is a software controlled interface device for electrically switching devices such as cabin lighting, window shades and other electronic devices requiring simple on/off control. Six low current (2 amps max) relays are provided for switching these isolated or power signals. Eight configurable inputs, both High and Low level activated, are also provided and are used for inputting discrete on/off signals from devices that provide opening and closing of switch contacts. These input signals can also be on/off signals from devices that can provide switched voltage levels from (0 to 5 VDC ) min. and up to (0 to 28 VDC ) max.

The 6-Channel Relay HC (High Current) Controller is a software controlled interface device for electrically switching devices such as cabin lighting, window shades and other electronic devices requiring simple on/off control. Six high current (5 amps max) relays are provided for switching these isolated or power signals. Eight configurable inputs, both High and Low level activated, are also provided and are used for inputting discrete on/off signals from devices that provide opening and closing of switch contacts. These input signals can also be on/off signals from devices that can provide switched voltage levels from (0 to 5 VDC ) min and up to (0 to 28 VDC ) max.

A/V Analog to Digital Converters

The 2x4 Analog to Digital Converter is designed to take two stereo pairs of line-level analog input and convert each into two balanced Digital Audio signals. Independent gain controls are built in. This provides for integration with audio products that do not implement a digital output and allow audio transmission without degradation. The combined use of twisted-pair cable and digital audio provides a low cost transmission system while maintaining the highest quality audio standards. The signals may then directly interface with Custom Control Concepts’ products without need for conversion.

The Digital Video Serial Decoder is used to convert analog video inputs to serial digital video outputs. The unit accepts PAL or NTSC analog video signals in either Composite, S-Video (Y/C), or Component (YPbPr) formats. The decoder converts
them into four (4) independent Serial Digital Interface (SDI) video outputs.

The 2X8 Audio ADC converts analog source equipment audio outputs and headset microphone audio to SPDIF serial digital audio for noise free audio distribution throughout the installation. The 2X8 Audio ADC has two analog channels that can switch between a stereo analog input and a single ended microphone input. Each of the two serial digital audio signals is split into four serial digital outputs.

Audio and Video Digital to Analog Converters

The Digital Video Serial Encoder is used to convert Serial Digital Interface (SDI) video back to its original Composite, S-Video (Y/C), or Component (YPbPr) format. The unit can be configured to provide either NTSC or PAL format outputs for analog display equipment which may not have digital input capability. The Digital Video Serial Encoder also provides a Buffered Pass-through for the digital video signal.

The 2 x 2 Digital to Analog Converter is designed to take the high resolution Digital Audio on a shielded twisted pair and accurately convert it to two stereo analog pairs. An onboard multiplexer maps either input to either output. This provides for audio integration to a wide variety of products that do not handle digital audio inputs. The combined use of twisted-pair cable and digital audio provides a low cost transmission system that can transmit hundreds of feet while maintaining the highest quality audio standards.

RS-232 Interface

The C-Stream to RS-232 Controller is a duel serial gateway device designed to interface the C-Stream Network with up to two external RS-232, RS422 or RS485 devices. This gateway allows any device on the C-Stream network to control and/or communicate with up to two devices that can support the RS-232, RS422 or RS485 hardware interface. Since the C-Stream Network is bi-directional, the external device(s) can also be allowed to control a device on the C-Stream Network. The C-Stream to RS-232 Controller has a serial bit rate up to 115.2Kbps and can also support serial modem control when configured for RS-232.

 


C-Stream Network Manager

The CSNM constantly monitors and diagnoses all devices on the network and reports the state of the C-Stream network on its 8-segment display. When a network failure does occur, such as when a device is no longer operational, the display will show an error code specific to the device in question. Remote access of the C-Stream Network can be achieved via the CSNM from either a dial-up or an Ethernet port. This provides external monitoring and diagnostics of the C-Stream Network and downloading of firmware updates to any device on the C-Stream Network.

 


UPS Controller

The C-Stream Network Manager UPS (CSNM UPS ) is an Uninterruptible Power Supply designed specifically to meet the power requirements of the C-Stream Network Manager (CSNM). The UPS maintains power to the CSNM during aircraft power fluctuations and interruptions, and allows for an orderly shut down of the CSNM before removing power.
