To use the built-in AutoVolume feature, use one or more Bose AVM-1 sense microphones with the CSP. Insert the −, +, and ground wires connected to the AVM-1 to the corresponding terminals of a Euroblock included with the Bose CSP. Connect that Euroblock to an analog input on the rear panel of the Bose CSP. See the AVM-1 installation guide for more information.

Note: The AutoVolume feature is optimized for use with Bose AVM-1 sense microphones only

AmpLink Connection

The AmpLink Out port provides a low-latency method for transporting up to eight channels of uncompressed digital audio to AmpLinkcompatible amplifiers. For simplified audio distribution, the CSP-428 and CSP-1248 can also serve as centralized input-routing/mixing points to one or more AmpLink-compatible amplifiers when installed in the same rack. Each amplifier must have a built- in AmpLink port or an AmpLink 24-channel input card installed. Use shielded EIA/TIA 568B straight Cat 5 cables (or equivalent) to make this connection. You can daisy-chain up to eight AmpLink-compatible products with up to 10 meters (32 feet) of cable between each product.

CAUTION: Shielded EIA/TIA 568B straight Cat 5 cables (or equivalent) are required for proper AmpLink operation. Unshielded cables are not supported and may cause AmpLink audio to operate improperly. Do not connect an AmpLink port to an Ethernet-based network.

CC-1D/CC-2D/CC-3D

The ControlCenter CC-1D, CC-2D, and CC-3D can be used for volume and mute control. The CC-2D and CC-3D can also be used for source control. You can connect these controllers to the Network port via aPoE network switch (not included). You can connect up to 16 controllers or up to 32 controllers, depending on the amplifier you are using with the CSP. Use a foiled or unshielded twisted-pair (F/UTP) Cat 5e cable (not included) to connect this port on each CSP to your network or computer. Make this connection directly to the CSP or through a switched Ethernet network.
See Overview > Available Accessories (page 11) for a list of compatible accessories.

Mute with Standard Contact Closure
Contact Closure

The CSP-428 and CSP-1248 are designed to mute all outputs either when the Mute contacts are either shorted together or opened, depending on how the CSP is configured. The default state is Normally Open (NO), where a short across the mute connector will mute all outputs. Using the CSP integrated web server, the mute polarity can be inverted to Normally Closed (NC), where an open across the mute connector will mute all outputs.

Note: All LED indicators will blink red when the amplifier is muted from software or from the rear panel Mute connector. Use the included black 2-pin Euroblock to make this connection.

Control I/O Connections
The CSP can interface with external control hardware via the eight control inputs and one control output.

Control Inputs
You can connect the control inputs to external hardware such as switches to control push-to-talk (PTT) paging. Use the CSP configuration utility to easily assign how the paging functions work.

Using Switches
You can use toggle switches or push-buttons with control inputs. Each input terminal is tied to an internal two-kiloohm pull-up resistor so that external switches can be wired directly from input to ground.
Connections

Control Output
Note: The control output is intended for use with ControlSpace Remote only.

Current Source Devices
The control output can power some devices such as LEDs and lowcurrent relays directly. The maximum source current is 10 milliamps. Source Limits: Open circuit, ≤ 8 VDC; 2.5 VDC and 10 mA (maximum) for external devices.
Control output connections

Current Sink Devices
Devices that require more current than is available from a currentsource configuration can use the control output to sink up to 100 milliamps when used with external power supplies. Use proper precautions when driving inductive loads. Sink Limits: 100 mA (maximum). External supplies must be ≤ 24 VDC
Control output connections

Network Connection
The CSP-428 and CSP-1248 include a Network port on the rear panel for network connection. Use a foiled or unshielded twisted-pair (F/UTP) Cat 5e cable (not included) to connect this port on each CSP to your network or computer. Make this connection directly to the CSP or through a switched Ethernet network.

Troubleshooting

Problem What to do
The Power LED on the front panel is not lit solid green. Use the included

power cord to connect the processor’s power inlet (on the rear panel) to a power outlet.Make sure that the mains power is active.
The power is on, but there is no sound.| Verify that there is an input signal from the source using the CSP configuration utility. The audio input metering should be in the green/yellow band.Verify that there is an output signal. The audio output signal metering should be in the green/yellow band.
The sound is distorted.| Check the audio input signal indicators using the CSP configuration utility. If any of the audio input metering is in the red band, reduce the gain of the audio input or the output volume of the audio device.If the input and output indicators are green, and if you are sure the output volume of the audio device is undistorted when it enters the processor, make sure that the loudspeakers are not being overdriven or are not damaged.
The Power LED is red.| Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet, and then reconnect it.If the issue continues, call your Bose Professional sales/support representative.
The Ethernet LED is off.| Make sure that the processor’s Network port is securely connected to a computer, hub, or switch using a foiled or unshielded twisted-pair (F/UTP) Cat 5e cable (not included).Make sure that the computer’s Ethernet connection is enabled. If it is disabled, the Link LED on the computer will probably be off.If the processor is connected to a hub or switch, make sure the Link LED on the hub or switch is on.
The Ethernet LED is on but devices cannot communicate with processor.| If you recently connected the processor to a power outlet, wait 40 seconds to make sure that the processor is fully turned on. The Power LED should be solid green.Make sure that the network settings on the TCP/IP Ethernet device you are using on the computer are set correctly:If you are not using a DHCP server, manually set the computer’s IP address to an unused IP address (e.g. 192.168.0.2).The default IP subnet mask should be set to 255.255.255.0. Open the firewall settings on the computer, and unblock all ports.Make sure that there is not another processor connected with the same address. If you are not sure, disconnect a processor, scan for the other processor, and then change its address. Repeat with the second processor.
