Courier - GSM Mobile Telephone Compatibility
|
|
There are currently four models of telephone which can be used for connection of the Courier to a GSM network. These telephones contain an internal modem so that the Courier can send serial data to them directly. The phone will need to have a lead that connects to a nine pin D plug, that supports a normal RS232 protocol and can fully implement the modem code within the phone. Compatible telephones are:
The Ericsson SH888 regrettably simulates a Infra-red link on the serial cable and is NOT compatible. Unfortunately,
at present, we're unable to use any other types of telephone, that
we're aware of. |

Courier -CO-ISDN ISDN Version -
The Outside Broadcast Van In A Box! |
|
The ISDN version of the Courier provides you with all the features and benefits of the standard Courier but brings it up to the level of a portable ISDN codec. You can either carry out a live broadcast, or use the Courier as an ISDN modem to send your audio back to the studio as data. For live audio, mpeg layer 2 compression is used to send and receive audio over a single 64 kb/sec circuit. As standard you can use the left mic/line input to broadcast, or you can play back cuts from the disk. Audio can be sampled at either 24kHz or 48kHz and there is an option to mix both the inputs to mono before sending. There is a send and return level indicator and levels can be adjusted using the record level knob and the headphone volume adjustment, with the return feed being sent to the headphones. Courier is compatible with CCS CDQ Prima & CDQ1000, Telos Zephyr, Dialog 4 MusicTaxi and Prodys Pronto 2 codecs. Using the Courier as an ISDN modem, you can connect directly to an ISDN line and send data files back to your studio using the z-modem protocol. There are two types of ISDN option available :
Any codec that can receive mpeg layer 2 compressed audio, sampled at
24kHz, or 48kHz, with bit rate of 64kbps should work correctly with
the Courier.
Compatible CODECS are:
Any codecs which support APT-X only can unfortunately not be supported. |
