CHAPTER 6: RMS REMOTE MONITORING SYSTEM

40

The RMS software displays all loudspeakers on the network
in a panel with icons, Meter views, and Text views that can
be customized to suit your needs. Loudspeaker data is
updated 2–5 times per second. Individual loudspeakers can
be physically identified with the Wink option in RMS, which
lights the Wink LED on the RMS module for that particular
loudspeaker. Conversely, a loudspeaker can be identified in
the RMS software by pressing the Identify button on the
loudspeaker’s RMS module.

Loudspeaker icons and views can be arranged to represent
how the loudspeakers have been deployed in the system.
Multiple panels can be saved and recalled for specific per-
formances and venues.

RMS MODULE

MINA’s RMS user panel includes an Identify button, Wink/
Activity LED, Remote Mute switch, and two Network con-
nectors.

NOTE:

The buttons and LED on MINA’s RMS

user panel are used exclusively by RMS and

have no effect on the acoustical or electrical activity
of the loudspeaker.

Identify Button

The Identify button serves the following functions:

If the loudspeaker has not yet been commissioned
(Activity/Wink LED not lit), press the Identify button to
identify the loudspeaker on the RMS network and com-
mission it.

To decommission the loudspeaker, press and hold the
Identify button during startup.

To wink a commissioned loudspeaker, press the Identify
button. The Wink LED on the loudspeaker icon in the
RMS software lights up and the Activity/Wink LED on the
loudspeaker’s RMS user panel turns solid green. Press
the Identify button again to unwink the loudspeaker.

TIP:

The Wink function is useful for identifying

the physical loudspeaker corresponding to a

loudspeaker icon in the RMS software.

Activity/Wink LED (Green)

The green Activity/Wink LED indicates the status of the
loudspeaker:

During startup, the LED blinks 10 ten times.

If the loudspeaker has not yet been commissioned, the
LED is not lit after startup.

If the loudspeaker has been successfully commissioned,
the LED flashes continuously and flashes more rapidly
with increased data activity.

When the loudspeaker is winked, either by clicking the
Wink button in the RMS software or by pressing the
Identify button on the RMS user panel, the LED is solid
green.

TIP:

The Wink function is useful for identifying

the physical loudspeaker corresponding to a

loudspeaker icon in the RMS software.

NOTE:

The Activity/Wink LED on the RMS user

panel is used exclusively by RMS and has no

effect on the acoustical or electrical activity of the
MINA loudspeaker.
