NETWORK AUDIO SYSTEMS
The CM16a Amplifier Network Monitor is a key hardware component of QSControl, QSC's Ethernet based audio network. The CM16a
provides sixteen channels of gain control,monitoring,and amplifier management for DataPort-equipped QSC amplifiers.The CM16a
is operated remotely by a Pentium-based PC or QSC System Controller running QSControl application software.Control and monitoring
data is communicated between the Pentium-based PC or QSC System Controller and CM16a via an Ethernet network.The CM16a,located
in the amplifier rack,is linked to each amplifier via a DataPort.
