Quinta – Safety Instructions 5
Charger
• Never use the charger as a mains power supply unit for electrical
equipment.
1.2 Quinta MU Microphone Unit
Set up
• Always position the microphone units on a secure surface. If the
microphone unit falls down, you can hurt yourself or others or
damage the microphone unit.
• To align the gooseneck microphone on the microphone unit and
to avoid twisting it too far and causing premature wear, please
note that the gooseneck must be bent no further than an angle
of 90° maximum.
Risk of injury
• If the microphone stations have a gooseneck microphone take
care that you do not injure yourself on this e.g. poke it into your
eye.
• The charging contacts of the microphone units can cause
damage to property, injuries or fire damage if they come into
contact with conductive material such as jewellery, keys or
chains. This closes the circuit and can thus cause the material
to heat up. To avoid this sort of unwanted circuit, the charging
contacts must be handled with caution. This applies particularly
if the microphone units are transported in a bag or some other
container together with metal objects.
Charging / rechargeable batteries
• When charging the microphone unit in the charger, take care to
ensure that you do not injure yourself when putting the station
in or taking it out.
• Only switch on the charger when you have inserted all micro-
phone units. Empty charging compartments should never be
touched during the charging process. You could receive an
electric shock.
• Avoid letting the rechargeable batteries in the microphone unit
become too deeply discharged. The rechargeable batteries could
be damaged and the life of them could be reduced.
• If battery operated equipment is not used for a lengthy period
(e.g. 1 year) the self-discharge of the battery could be
accelerated. The temperature for long-term storage should be
between +10° C and +30° C.
• If the microphone units are not used for several months, the
rechargeable batteries in the microphone units should be
charged up at least twice a year in order to avoid them running
out and deterioration in the performance due to self discharge.
Volume
•If the participants of a meeting use a headphone with the Quinta
microphone stations, please make sure that the volume is not set
too high via the Quinta Conference software or the microphone
unit itself. Otherwise, the hearing of the participants could
permanently be damaged.
1.3 Quinta TH Handheld Transmitter
Use
• Protect the transmitter from moisture and sudden impacts. You,
or others, could either injure yourself or damage the transmitter.
• Switch off the transmitter before changing the battery.
• Do not blow into the microphone. In a condenser microphone
this could damage the transducer. It is preferable to carry out a
speech trial.
NiMH rechargeable batteries, alkaline batteries
• The Quinta TH handheld transmitter can be operated with two
NiMH rechargeable batteries or alkaline batteries (AA LR6
Mignon).
• The commercial batteries can have a length tolerance of 2 - 3 mm.
When changing the battery always ensure a good contact.
• If the transmitter is not being used for weeks or months, please
remove the batteries. Batteries can leak when not being used
for a long time and corrode the conductor strips and components.
Repair is no longer possible. In this case all warranty claims are
null and void. The description “leak proof” on batteries is no gua-
rantee that they will not run out.
• Never take batteries apart yourself. The battery acid contained
will damage skin and clothing.
• If abused or misused, rechargeable batteries may leak. In ex-
treme cases, they may even present an explosion, heat, fire,
smoke or gas hazard.
• Never expose batteries to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire
or the like.
Charging/charging contacts
• Avoid letting the rechargeable batteries become too deeply
discharged. The rechargeable batteries could be damaged and
the life of them could be reduced.
• If battery operated equipment is not used for a lengthy period
(e.g. 1 year) the self-discharge of the battery could be
accelerated. The temperature for long-term storage should be
between +10° C and +30° C.
• If the handheld transmitter is not used for several months, the
rechargeable batteries in the transmitter should be charged up
at least twice a year in order to avoid them running out and
deterioration in the performance due to self discharge.
• From time to time the battery and charging contacts of the
Quinta TH handheld transmitter should be cleaned with a
lint-free soft cloth moistened with spirits or alcohol. Please
remove the batteries from the battery compartment before
cleaning.
• The charging contacts of the handheld transmitter can cause
damage to property, injuries or fire damage if they come into
contact with conductive material such as jewellery, keys or
chains. This closes the circuit and can thus cause the material
to heat up. To avoid this sort of unwanted circuit, the charging
contacts must be handled with caution. This applies particularly
if the handheld transmitter is transported in a bag or some other
container together with metal objects.
1.4 Disposal
• Old batteries may contain substances that are harmful to your
health and environment.
• If you throw away the Quinta TH transmitter, please remove the
batteries. For removing the batteries, please refer to chapter
“How to insert the batteries“.
• Dispose used batteries always according to the applicable
disposal regulations. Please do not throw used battery packs into
the fire (danger of explosion) or your household rubbish, take
them to your local collection points. The return is free and
required by law. Please dispose discharged batteries only.
• The device provides built-in rechargeable batteries, which you
cannot remove yourself, therefore, return the device to your
dealer for recycling when the batteries are exhausted.
• All batteries are recycled to reclaim valuable material such as
iron, zinc or nickel.
•Disconnect power plug first – then move charging case.
• In order to avoid damages to the mains connection and
a possible electrical shock caused by this, you must not
move the charging case when it is connected to an AC
outlet.

2.3 How to Connect the Antennae
2.3.1 Direct Connection
• Connect the antennae to the antenna connections ᕩ. Please
note that for diversity operation both antennae have to be
connected! A weighting circuit is used to make sure that the
better antenna signal is received.
• For stand-alone operation we recommend using the supplied
CA Q 11 angled rod antennae.
2.3.2 Remote Connection
• The Quinta CU control unit can also be operated with remote
antennae. We recommed extremely low attenuation connecting
cables which are 10 m [32.8 ft] or 20 m [65.6 ft] long. Please
note that the antennae have to be installed remotely.
2.2 Where to Place the Control Unit
• If you do not use remote antennae, place the Quinta CU control
unit in the room where the meeting takes place. If you use
remote antennae, place the antennae in the conference room.
• Avoid shadowing effect of the antennae, especially by metallic
surfaces.
• A free line of sight between the Quinta MU microphone units and
the antennae of the Quinta CU control unit is essential for the
operation of the microphone units. Big obstacles in between can
possibly affect the radio transmission. In such specific
installations the use of remote antennae can possibly achieve
an improvement of the RF situation.
• If you want to install several Quint CU control units in a 19"
rack, please make sure that there is a minimum distance of 1 U
between the control units to avoid interferences, especially if
you do not use remote antennae.
Important:
• There must be an unobstructed path between the micro-
phone units and the antennae, i.e. between the Quinta CU
control unit or the remote antennae and the microphone
units there must not be any obstacles. With a free line of
sight between the control unit and the microphone units
and the rod antennae the range is between 30 to 50 m
[98.4 ft to 164 ft].
For optimum range the surface of the table is important, wood or
plastic tables are ideal, but metal tables can cause interferences
and reduce the range.
• Please make sure that with a free line of sight the minimum
distance between the antennae and the microphone units is not
less than 1 m [3.2 ft].
Quinta – Control Unit 9
2.4 Audio Connection
• If required, connect the Audio Mix Ƹ, XLR ƹor Cinch ƺ
master output of the Quinta CU control unit to the input of a
mixing console or amplifier.
• If you want to feed the audio signals into a network, connect the
AVB connection * µto the network by using a CAT5 cable. You
can also connect other audio sources or devices with AVB
connection, which are defined as “Talker” (e.g. microphone) or
“Listener” (e.g. loudspeaker), as well as DSP devices for audio
data processing.
• You can connect e.g. external loudspeakers to the individual
channels of the audio output ¹.
• Always route cables running to the unit where they will not be
pinched or cut by heavy or sharp objects.
*AVB is a uniform standard for Audio/Video networks for data
communication with which the most different components can
communicate with each other.
AVB is based on IEEE 802 Ethernet for the real-time streaming of
audio and video contents via Ethernet.
AVB features a bandwidth reservation, a low jitter master clock, low
latencies and a timing mechanism for the synchronisation. AVB
supplies a sufficient raw data bandwidth to transmit up to 200 audio
channels via one single Gigabit Ethernet port. Field tests showed
that a part of this can be used for extended functions. In order to
achieve this, an AVB network separates the AVB data traffic from the
Standard Ethernet data traffic and manages streams accordingly.
This means that an AVB network can be connected to a Standard
Ethernet network to transfer data to and from the network. The
performance of the streaming of media can only be guaranteed
within a group of AVB capable devices.
µ ¹ Ƹ ƹ ƺ
2.5 Power Supply
• Verify that the voltage rating of the unit matches that of the AC
mains outlet you are to use. If you connect the unit to the wrong
voltage, you may seriously damage it.
• Always route cables running to the unit where they will not be
pinched or cut by heavy or sharp objects.
• Connect the Quinta CU control unit to the mains ƿ. The
internal power supply unit of the control unit can automatically
adjust between 100 and 240 V at 50 - 60 Hz.
ƿ
2.6 Connection of Media Control System and PC
• If you want to configure, control and monitor the system via
the Quinta Conference software, connect the USB connection
ᕨ or the LAN connection ƻ or RS 232 Ƽ (null modem cable
required) with a media control system or PC. The default IP
address of the Quinta CU control unit is: 192.168.1.55
• If the Quinta CU control unit is connected e.g. via a network
with a WLAN Access Point, you can access the web server of
the Quinta CU control unit e.g. with a smartphone.
ᕨ
Important:
Never access the Quinta CU control unit via the media
control system and the Quinta Conference software
simultaneously. In this case a correct function of the
system cannot be guaranteed. ƻ Ƽ

5.2 Notes for Microphone Units and Rechargeable
Batteries
• To achieve a 100% battery capacity of the rechargeable batteries,
all microphone units should have 2 complete charging cycles
(charging and discharging) at least. Only after several charging and
discharging cycles, the rechargeable batteries will achieve their
full capacity.
• The Quinta MU microphone units are provided with high-
performance nickel-metal hydrid (NiMH) batteries. These
guarantee operating times of approx. 20 hours. It takes about
2.5 hours to charge them.
• The service life of the batteries largely depends on the manner in
which they are looked after and on how well the user recharges
them. To extend the service life of the batteries for as long as
possible, the following charging cycle is recommended:
– Do not keep the microphone units in the charging case when
it is switched on.
– Only put the microphone units in the charging case before a
conference / application and fully charge them until the “fully
charged” status is shown.
– In particular, when the microphone units are inserted, the
charging case should not be constantly switched on and off.
For each charging cycle, there is an initial 5-minute charge to
check the battery status. If the case with the microphone units
is switched on every day (for example, because the mains is
switched off automatically or by a cleaner), the microphone
units will be slowly but constantly overcharged and this will
damage the batteries.
– The NiMH batteries used minimise the so-called “memory
effect”, but their capacity is reduced when they are only
partially discharged on a regular basis. For this reason, the
microphone units should be fully discharged every three
months until they switch off automatically. They can then be
fully recharged. This procedure can, if necessary, be repeated
a second time.
– If, despite this measure, the microphone unit does not operate
for a sufficiently long period of time, the battery has reached
the end of its service life and must be replaced. The typical
service life of the battery is greatly dependent on whether or
not the above points are observed. This is why batteries are
not covered by warranties. If the above points are observed, a
battery typically has a service life of at least two years or
500 complete charging cycles, depending on which occurs
first.
Note:
• If an error has occurred, try to restart the charging
process. If the LEDs are still flashing rapidly, please
contact your beyerdynamic dealer.
• For a reliable charging of the rechargeable batteries and
in order to avoid long-term damages the ambient
temperature must not exceed +35 °C [95 °F] during
charging.

batteries, you can recharge it with the WA-CD charger. The
rechargeable batteries can remain inside the transmitter or be
charged separately. For a detailed description on the operation,
please refer to the separate manual for the “WA-CD” charger.
• Mount the appropriate power plug to the power adaptor.
• Connect the power adaptor to the charger and to the mains.
• The charger provides no separate on/off switch and will start up
automatically.
• The charging lights of the battery compartments will illuminate
white to indicate the ready operating status of the device.
• If required, connect the Ethernet port to a media control system.
• Put the Quinta TH handheld transmitter or the NiMH batteries
into the charging compartments as indicated in the drawing. If
the transmitter is turned on, it will be turned off automatically.
Make sure to insert the NiMH batteries into the charging
compartments as indicated by the +/- marks.
Important: Before charging please make sure that there are no
non-rechargeable alkaline batteries in the transmitter. The
simultaneous use of different batteries (alkaline and NiMH) in
one transmitter is not suitable for operating the transmitter,
furthermore these transmitters should not be charged, because
transmitter and charger could be damaged. In this case the
guarantee will be invalidated.
Each charging compartment is controlled separately. The appro-
priate indicators display the charging process.

8.1 Simultaneous Operation of the Quinta Conference
System and other 2.4 GHz Devices
(e.g. WLAN, Bluetooth)
8.1.1 Physical Laws
Due to many physical laws it is not possible to guarantee a
simultaneous interference-free operation of different devices using
the same frequency band. Radio devices operating in the same
frequency band will always disturb each other (the function can be
disturbed as well).
For the use of UHF wireless microphones it is known that 2 devices
can never be operated on the same frequency. It is only possible to
operate a certain number of compatible radio devices within a
defined frequency band.
This applies also to the 2.4 GHz-ISM band (2400 MHz - 2484 MHz)
or 5 GHz. Due to digital transmission techniques and various
transmission standards it is possible, but not recommended, to
operate certain devices simultaneously within the same frequency
band.
8.1.2 Quinta and WLAN or WiFi
Like WLAN, the Quinta system uses the same bandwidth of approx.
22 MHz for each RF channel (Low, Mid, High). This results in three
compatible RF channels which are theoretically:
Compatible channel 1: 2400 MHz - 2428 MHz
(theoretical mid frequency 2414 MHz)
Compatible channel 2: 2428 MHz - 2456 MHz
(theoretical mid frequency 2442 MHz)
Compatible channel 3: 2456 MHz - 2484 MHz
(theoretical mid frequency 2470 MHz)
Compatible channel 4: +5.2 GHz - +5.8 GHz
The Quinta system uses RF channels (Low, Mid, High) compatible
to each other. For WLAN the user has to configure compatible RF
channels.
You can easily recognise that the individual WLAN channels overlap
considerably due to their bandwidth. All neighbouring channels
(e.g. channel 1 & 2 or channel 7 & 8) cannot be used simultane-
ously, because they would disturb each other. Furthermore, channel
12 and 13 are not approved for the use in the USA. In general, these
channels are not used either. Within the remaining frequency bands
only the WLAN channels 1, 6 and 11 can be used simultaneously.
For this reason the WLAN channels 1, 6 and 11 were selected for the
RF channels Low, Mid and High used for the Quinta conference
system. Due to this frequency compatibility the Quinta system is
operated WLAN-friendly.
More tips for installation
• Keep a minimum distance of approx. 5 m between WLAN
devices (e.g. Router, Repeater) and the transmitting and
receiving antennae of the Quinta CU control unit.
• The distance between laptops with activated WLAN interface
does not influence the audio transmission of the microphone
units as long as there is no active data traffic.
• We recommend using different RF channels for WLAN or WiFi
and Quinta channels. The distance between the WLAN and
Quinta channels should be as large as possible.
• The channels of the Quinta conference system can be selected
with the supplied Quinta Conference Software.
Quinta – Trouble Shooting 37
8.1.3 Quinta and Bluetooth
• Bluetooth devices make use of the whole 2.4 GHz range with
changing carrier frequencies (frequency hopping).
• Interferences caused by Bluetooth devices (including micro-
wave ovens) in normal operation can be excluded due to
different measures inside the Quinta conference system and
an advanced transmission protocol.
• It cannot be excluded, however, that an exisisting Bluetooth
data traffic will be intefered by Quinta.
8.1.4 Example for Quinta, Media Control System and
WLAN
The 2.4 GHz technology is used for many applications in
discussions and meetings. In addition to a wireless discussion
system other functions (light or volume control etc.) are operated
via a wireless 2.4 GHz touch screen of a media control system.
Furthermore, the participants of a meeting often have direct
internet access via a WLAN access point.
The Quinta conference system and WLAN make use of compatible
transmission standards. This should be considered when also
using a media control system with a touch screen. State-of the-art
devices correspond to the WLAN standard.
1. Configure the Quinta conference system to the RF channel
“Low”. The Quinta system then makes use of the frequency
range of 2401 to 2423 MHz. This frequency range must be
reserved for Quinta exclusively.
2. Configure the touch screen of the media control system to the
frequency range of 2426 to 2448 MHz. This corresponds to
the WLAN channel 6. This frequency range must be reserved
for the use of the touch screen exclusively.
3. Configure the WLAN access point to WLAN channel 11
making use of the frequency range 2451 to 2473 MHz. This
frequency range must be reserved for the use by WLAN
exclusively.
4. As an alternative you can operate Quinta in the 5.2 or 5.8 GHz
band.
