INTRODUCTION
The CU5300/5303W is the next generation control platform for the Smart Response System. The controller
features a configurable event processing engine, message library, and fully integrated 900 MHz RF
transceiver to facilitate communication with shopper help buttons and Global Solution Family (GSF) Smart
Sense devices.

PORT OVERVIEW
The RECEIVER Port is used to connect the
Control Unit to 303MHz CB451 Call Box
Receivers ONLY. The RECEIVER Port provides
+12VDC to support a maximum of (4) CB451
Receivers. CB451 Call Box Receivers are
connected using an RJ45 modular plug and
CAT-5 cable
The A1 and A2 indicators are multi-color
LEDs used to indicate the status of the two
AUDIO Ports. Each LED will light up RED or
GREEN to indicate the status of the
corresponding Audio Port. Both LEDs are on
during normal operations. A1 is normally
GREEN but turns RED when a busy signal is
detected on AUDIO Port 1. A2 is normally
GREEN when connected to an Indyme Paging
Transmitter, but turns RED when a busy
signal is detected, or if the Paging
Transmitter is disconnected.
The USB Ports are NON-STANDARD
interfaces. They are not intended for
peripherals and are used for software
upgrades ONLY.
The NET Port is the primary network
interface to the 900 MHz CB951 Access Point,
a network based receiver. The CB951
receives signals from Indyme Global Smart
Sense devices and sends those signals to the
Control Unit via the Local Area Net on the
NET Port. It is configured as the main
Ethernet Port when the Control Unit is
connected to a Local Area Network.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
1. Overview
The CU5300 is the latest hardware control unit developed by Indyme to be the central interface for the Global
Solution Family (GSF) of Smart Sense Devices, legacy Call Boxes, and Shopper Help Buttons. The
CU5300/5302W offers an easy to configure and install solution for rapid deployment of a completely integrated
system offering.
The CU5300 accepts triggers from GSF help buttons and Smart Sense devices over the network via CB451 or
CB951 transceivers. The default configuration provides support for ten (10) call boxes and four (4) CB451
receivers.
Once configured, the controller provides the alarm engine and messaging inputs for connected GSF and
Director call boxes, and Smart Sense devices.
2. Startup Sequence
The CU5300 startup sequence begins from a bootloader located in a partition on a local SD card. This is the
code that runs prior to the application software and initiates the Linux kernel in the controller. After the power
up sequence completes, a properly configured CU5300 will sit in standby mode until it receives an input from
the network or via a web-based GUI using a compatible web browser. All GUI functionality resides within the
control unit and is not downloaded by the web browser.
SUPPORTED FUNCTIONS
1. Input Compatibility
The CU5300/5303W
• Accepts event triggers from a network device (POS terminal) or wireless device (shopper help button)
• Accepts event triggers from GSF help buttons, Smart Sense devices and QuickLink over the Ethernet
port

6. Audio Ports
Direct Audio 1
• Direct Audio 1 is typically used to connect to a Public Address (P.A.) system.
• Direct Audio 1 has Audio In, Audio Out, Busy In, and a seize out (same as the Direct Audio 1 port on
the CLX/CLT).
• Direct Audio 1 is a standard RJ45 with the same pinouts as current CU’s
• Direct Audio 1 has an Input and an Output allowing another audio source to be looped through the
appliance.
• The appliance is able to switch between the external audio source (Audio In) and the internal audio
output as needed.
• The powered down and default mode allows the audio to pass from Audio In to Audio Out.
• The appliance is able to monitor Audio In for busy status (VOX). This feature is selectable on/off.
Direct Audio 2
• Direct Audio 2 is typically used to connect to an Indyme PT transceiver.
![](/img.php?id=3437766&img=bga.png)
10
• Direct Audio 2 has an Audio In, Audio Out, Busy In, and a PTT out (same as the Direct Audio 2 port on
the CLX/CLT).
• Direct Audio 2 is a standard RJ45 with the same pinouts as current CU’s.
• This port is used with existing PT14 and PT14-1 units, and will be 100% reverse compatible.
7. Controls and Indicators
• Direct Audio 1 has a bi-colored status LED
• Green = Ready
• Red = Busy (Vox mode only)
• Amber = In use (audio outputting)
• Direct Audio 2 has a bi-colored status LED
• Green = Ready
• Red = Busy (carrier presence contact or audio input presence, depending on mode, e.g., PT14-4 vs.
PT14-1)
• Amber = In use (PTT seize)
• Power/Heartbeat/Error has a bi-colored status LED
• Flashing Green = Good
• Flashing Red = Error
• Volume control consists of two (2) push buttons (same/similar to CLX/CLT)

• Used to increase or decrease volume levels
• Volume level indicated on Direct Audio 1 or Direct Audio 2 LED while adjusting
• Can use same method used on CLX/CLT, where cadence of flashing LED indicates volume level.
• Slow flash = low volume
• Rapid flash = high volume
• There is also a means to adjust the volume for Audio 1 and Audio 2 independently via the GUI. This
allows the user to adjust using a numbers scale as opposed to the flash rate on the LED.
