RAV-Ware overview
ClearOne’s RAV-Ware software provides an easy interface for configuring system settings
and customizing the audio in your RAV 600/900 conferencing system. While the RAV system
is designed to work out of the box for audio conferencing, RAV-Ware is required to adjust
audio levels and equalizer settings for the RAV components as well as the auxiliary audio
devices. Once installed, RAV-Ware allows configuration locally through USB or RS-232 con-
nection, or remotely through the Ethernet connection.
Menus and Toolbar: Easily create, open or save files, find RAV systems on the network, add
phonebook entries, configure regional settings and view the event log.
Connections: Lists available units connected through serial or USB ports, or on the network.
Device Toolbox: Lists common brands of auxiliary audio products (video codecs, sound
cards, VCRs and amplifiers). The audio settings for these devices have been optimized for use
with the RAV system.
Configuration Screen: Quickly access the configuration windows for the RAV system by
clicking the icons.
Online/Offline Indicator: Shows connection status of RAV-Ware (online/offline) and the
name of the connected unit.
Status Indicators: Status for Communications (green = online, red = offline), Telephone In
Use (red = not in use, green = in use) and Mic Mute (red = mute).
