3 System overview
INTEGRUS is a system for wireless distribution of audio signals through infrared radiation. It
can be used in a simultaneous interpretation system for international conferences where
multiple languages are used. To enable all participants to understand the discussion,
interpreters simultaneously translate the speaker's language as required. These
interpretations are distributed throughout the conference venue, and participants select their
preferred language and listen to it through headphones.

2023-01 | V01 | User manual Bosch Security Systems B.V.
The INTEGRUS Wireless Language Distribution System comprises one or more of the
following:
Transmitter OMNEO
The transmitter is the core of the INTEGRUS system. The INT-TXO Transmitter OMNEO
connects directly to the DICENTIS conference system. This transmitter has four infrared
language channels (0-3). The number of channels can be extended through the INT-L1AL.
Infrared radiators
Two radiators are available:
– The LBB4511/00 Radiator for medium size area is a medium-power radiator for small and
medium conference venues
– The LBB4512/00 Radiator for large size area is a high-power radiator for medium and
large conference venues.
The radiators can be mounted on walls, ceilings or floor stands.
Infrared receivers
Three multi-channel infrared receivers are available:
– The LBB4540/04 Pocket receiver for 4 languages for 4 audio channels
– The LBB4540/08 Pocket receiver for 8 languages for 8 audio channels
– And the LBB4540/32 Pocket receiver for 32 languages for 32 audio channels.
The receivers can operate with a rechargeable NiMH battery pack or with disposable batteries.
The charging circuitry is incorporated in the receiver.
Charging equipment
This equipment is available for charging and storing 56 infrared receivers. Two versions are
available:
– The LBB4560/00 Charger case for 56x LBB4540 for portable systems
– And the LBB4560/50 Charger cabinet for 56x LBB4540 for permanent systems
3.1 Transmitter OMNEO
The INT-TXO is the central element in the INTEGRUS system that allows INTEGRUS to interact
with the DICENTIS Conference System. The INT-TXO modulates the signals into carrier waves
and transmits them to the radiators in the room.
When connected to a DICENTIS system, the Transmitter OMNEO is fully controlled by
DICENTIS and does not require any configuration.
The INT-TXO can be switched to the slave mode to act as a repeater of another INT-TXO. In
this case, the signal is received through the coaxial input and synchronizes with the master
INT-TXO. The slave mode is enabled through a switch on the rear of the device.
INT-L1AL 1 Additional language license
In addition to the four standard channels, you can add 28 more language channels to the INT-
TXO through the INT-L1AL 1 Additional language license. The Transmitter OMNEO allows for a
maximum of 32 channels.

3.2 Radiators
The radiators accept the carrier signals generated by the transmitter and emit infrared
radiation carrying up to 32 audio distribution channels. The radiators are connected to one or
more of the 6 HF BNC outputs of the IR transmitter. Connect a maximum of 30 radiators to
each of these outputs by means of loop-through connections.
The LBB4511/00 has an infrared output of 21Wpp, while the LBB4512/00 has an infrared
output of 42Wpp. Both select automatically the mains power voltage and switch on when the
transmitter is switched on.
The radiator equalizes automatically the attenuation of the signal by the cable. The radiator
initializes the equalization when the radiator is supplied with power and the transmitter is
switched on. The red LED flashes for a brief period of time to indicate that the initialization is
in progress.
When not receiving carrier waves, the radiators switch to standby mode. The temperature
protection mode is also available. It automatically switches the radiators from full to half
power or from half power to standby if the temperature of the IREDs becomes too high.

Notice!
These charging units are only intended to charge LBB4540 receivers with an LBB4550/10
battery pack. You cannot charge other receiver types with the LBB4560 charging units, nor
can you use other charging units to charge LBB4540 receivers.
It is preferred to switch on the charging unit before inserting the receivers. Receivers can be
inserted or removed without damage while the charging unit is switched on.
Charge the battery pack to full capacity before using them for the first time.
The charger always applies fast charge during the first 10 minutes after inserting a receiver.
Inserting the receiver multiple times with a fully charged battery pack should therefore be
avoided, as this will damage the battery pack.
Continuously charging the receiver will not damage the receiver or battery pack. Receivers
can therefore safely be left in their charging positions when they are not used.
3.3 Receivers
LBB4540 receivers are available for 4, 8 or 32 channels. They can operate with a rechargeable
NiMH battery pack or with disposable batteries. The receivers have controls for channel
selection, volume adjustment, and an on/off push button. All receivers have a 3.5mm
(0.14inch) stereo jack output socket for mono or stereo headphones.
An LCD display shows the channel number and indicators for signal reception and low battery
power.
The charging circuitry is included in the receiver.
i
Notice!
When you put the receiver into storage for a long period, make sure:
- That the humidity is less than 60%
- That the temperature is less than 25°C.
- That the receiver is re-charged every few months.

Connect a headphone for the receiver to operate:
1. Connect a headphone to the receiver.
2. Push the on/off button.
3. Push the volume button up/down to increase/decrease the volume.
4. Push the channel button up/down to select another channel. The highest channel number
automatically matches the number of channels that has been set on the transmitter.
5. Push the on/off button for more than 2 seconds to put the receiver manually into standby
mode.
The display of the receiver can show:
– The channel number
– A battery symbol when the batteries or the battery pack is almost empty
– An antenna symbol when the signal reception is okay. No antenna symbol when no signal
reception.
During short interruptions in the reception, the receiver mutes the headphones output.
In case standby mode is enabled, the receiver automatically switches to standby mode when
no adequate IR signal is detected for more than 1 minute (e.g. when a delegate leaves the
conference room). When the receiver is in standby mode, press the on button to return to
normal operation.
!
Warning!
When the receiver is not used, disconnect the headphones. This will make sure that the
receiver is totally switched off and that no energy is consumed from the batteries or the
battery pack.

4 Planning
4.1 IR radiation
The Integrus system is based on transmission by modulated infrared radiation. Infrared
radiation forms part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is composed of visible light, radio
waves and other types of radiation. It has a wavelength just above that of visible light. Like
visible light, it is reflected from hard surfaces, yet passes through translucent materials such
as glass. The infrared radiation spectrum in relation to other relevant spectra is shown in the
next figure.

5Sensitivity of IR sensor with daylight filter
4.2 Aspects of Infrared distribution systems
A good infrared distribution system ensures that all delegates in a conference venue receive
the distributed signals without disturbance. This is achieved by using enough radiators, placed
at well planned positions, so that the conference venue is covered with uniform IR-radiation of
adequate strength. There are several aspects that influence the uniformity and quality of the
infrared signal, which must be considered when planning an infrared radiation distribution
system. These are discussed in the next sections.
4.2.1 Directional sensitivity of the receiver
The sensitivity of a receiver is at its best when it is aimed directly towards a radiator. The axis
of maximum sensitivity is tilted upwards at an angle of 45 degrees (see the next figure).
Rotating the receiver will decrease the sensitivity. For rotations of less than +/- 45 degrees
this effect is not large, but for larger rotations the sensitivity will decrease rapidly.
