Type 2 hardware provides new cables and connectors between the I/O cards and main boards in Cores and I/O Frames. Due to this change, the Type 2 hardware is not physically compatible with the older hardware. You can still integrate the new I/O Frames and Cores in the same system with older hardware, but the I/O cards are not interchangeable. Type 2 hardware can be identified by a yellow label on the back of the Core and I/O Frame, and the bottom of the I/O cards.
NOTE: This topic is for reference only. Refer to the Q-SYS Core and I/O Frame User Manual or the Type 2 Q‑SYS Core and I/O Frame User Manual for installation instructions.
The Core is Q-SYS' central processing unit. The Core processes and routes all audio, controls peripheral devices, manages firmware updates to the peripheral devices, all via a 1-gigabit Ethernet network. The Core has one slot available to add one of the I/O cards listed under Audio I/O cards.
The Q-SYS Core processing is accomplished using Intel® Xeon microprocessors and Intel server motherboards running, QSC-developed DSP algorithms under a customized Linux operating system. In addition, Sharc DSP is employed for some ancillary chores in peripheral devices.
NOTE: When a Core is shipped, the I/O card that is installed in the Core at shipping, is noted on the shipping label.
QSC currently has the Cores listed in the table below. The available storage capability for audio files and design files depends on the Multi-Track Player option purchased with the Core.
Due to hardware availability, the actual capacity may change.
VIDEO TUTORIAL: Video training presentation available online for Audio Tracks.
IMPORTANT: If you upgrade your hard drive, you will lose any files you had on the flash drive. Back up the files prior to upgrading.
Refer to Networked Audio Design for Core capacity information.
VIDEO TUTORIAL: Video presentation available online for Identify Device Button.
For Cores 1000, 3000, 4000, 250i, and 500i: Insert a standard paperclip or other suitable tool into the pinhole and hold for 10 seconds to reset all network settings to their factory defaults.
For Cores 1100, 3100: Insert a standard paperclip or other suitable tool into the pinhole and hold for 3 seconds, the message "Press ID to reset, any other button to cancel" displays. Press ID to set all network settings to their factory defaults.
For Core 110f: Press and hold the Next and ID buttons for 3 seconds the message "Press ID to reset, any other button to cancel" displays. Press ID to set all network settings to their factory defaults.
VIDEO TUTORIAL: For a comparison of the Front and Back Panel with an I/O Frame, watch the video presentation of the Core and I/O Frame.
The following connections use the black Euro plug.
The Core 250i Type 2 allows eight of the following Type 2 I/O cards or a card/cover. Each I/O card supports four channels. The cards are not hot-swapable, and must be replaced by a qualified technician.
The Core 500i Type 2 allows eight of the following Type 2 I/O cards or a card/cover. Each I/O card supports four channels. The cards are not hot-swapable, and must be replaced by a qualified technician.
The Core Type 2 allows one of the following Type 2 I/O cards or a card/cover. The cards are not hot-swapable, and must be replaced by a qualified technician.
