IC-2 Interpreter Control Console

IC-2

The IC-2 Interpreter Control Console helps bridge language barriers in multilingual environments by providing an audio control center for simultaneous interpretation. It allows one or two interpreters to monitor floor or relay sources, activate microphone inputs, and route the interpretation signal to one of two language groups.

The IC-2 Interpreter Control Console is your audio control center for simultaneous interpretation.  Interpreters can monitor floor or relay sources, activate microphone inputs, and route the interpretation signal to one of two language groups all from the stand-alone IC-2 unit. It is great for presentation-style conferences, where up to 14 languages are spoken, and a combination of a floor language and a single relay language is employed. The IC-2 is engineered to meet the diverse needs of international conferences, summits, and events and is designed to meet international standards for portable interpretation consoles.

The Interpreter Control Console is compatible with Williams AV FM, Infrared, and Digi-Wave™ transmitters, allowing for both portable and fixed installations.

System Includes

  • (1) IC-2 interpreter control console

IC-2 architectural and engineering specifications

  • The IC-2 is an audio control center powered by an 18VDC universal (100 – 240 VAC) power supply. It shall be housed in a black and grey steel enclosure 10″ x 6.35″ x 2.45″.

Top

  • The IC-2 shall have individual rotary volume and tone controls for two interpreters (L [&] R). Input and output selection is selected with soft touch buttons for smooth quiet operation. The console shall have two selectable listening modes (blue, relay and floor) and two selectable output modes (yellow, normal and relay). The unit shall have two microphone select buttons (red when activated) and microphone (push and hold) for mute.

Rear

  • Each unit shall have an RJ-45 input and output for interconnection to additional IC-2s via CAT 05 audio bus cable eliminating the need for additional distribution amplifiers. It shall have an XLR floor in jack with gain control. It shall have XLR and RCA relay and normal outputs. It shall have switchable normal and relay selection and ground lift capability.

Sides

  • It shall have one XLR audio input jack for microphone with its own rotary gain control and switchable 12V power supply for each interpreter (L [&] R). It shall have 3.5mm microphone input (with rotary gain control) and 3.5mm headphone output jacks. Each side shall also have a 3.5mm combination headset jack for use with Ipod style headsets.
  • This unit shall be the Williams Sound model IC-2.
