RMS Configuration
Overview
NOVARA 3000-series ControlPads can connect to a Resource Management Suite
®
(RMS) server to view online status,
execute control functions, create macros containing those control functions, and schedule the execution of the macros.
Connecting to RMS involves installing a proxy, called the CP-RMS application, directly onto the RMS server or on a PC.
The proxy serves as a gateway between the ControlPads and the RMS server. There is no user interface available for the
proxy, so when the proxy is installed on a PC, you must use telnet to view the proxy debug logs. The CP-RMS is a
service that you must manually start after you install and configure it. Afterward, it automatically starts if you reboot the
PC.
The following table lists the operating systems compatible with the CP-RMS application:
Installation Checklist
The CP-RMS proxy is designed to work with RMS 3.3 or higher and requires you
have the latest version of Java loaded on your PC. The CP-RMS proxy is intended for
use with 32-bit servers only.
When upgrading the CP-RMS proxy, you should always shut down the CP-RMS
proxy service prior to upgrading.

CP-RMS Proxy Installation Checklist
• Ensure you have the latest version of Java installed on the RMS server or the PC.
• Install the CP-RMS application using the CPRMS.msi file and follow the installation instructions.
• Edit the config.properties file to include the default RMS server IP address, the proxy telnet port, and the proxy telnet
debug level.
• Edit the config.properties file to add the IP addresses of any ControlPads you want to track in RMS.
Note:
Your zero-configuration client automatically discovers any ControlPads residing on the same subnet as your CP-
RMS application. This step is only necessary if you want the ControlPads to use static IP addresses, or the
ControlPads are on a different subnet from the CP-RMS application.
