OLYMPIA 3 CU CONTROL
Application that allows to control the CU in real time, with a display similar to the CU surface, including intercom and vumeters (in addition to presence detectors with the application folded).
OLYMPIA 3 CU CONTROL performs remote control of the positions, even with parallel control of the equipment controls, for use by untrained speakers.

• Plug & Play technology.
• Precise, sample-accurate, playback synchronization, even
with several switch hops.
• Extremely low and deterministic delay across the whole network.
• Scalable and flexible network topology supporting a large
number of audio transmitters and receivers.
• Operates in a single integrated network for audio, video,
control and monitoring. Compatible with other kinds of traffic when QoS is managed.
• Supports 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps network links.
