R1 Remote control software
R1 Remote control software is a graphical drag and drop user
interface enabling the construction of a screen based virtual
control surface for d&b systems, using the d&b Remote network.
All major features, functions and controls available on the front
panel of the D6 and D12 amplifiers may be remotely controlled
and/or monitored using R1. The architecture of R1 allows control
of each channel of the amplifier as a single entity and enables
the creation of groups of loudspeakers in as little, or as much
detail as required by the user. When grouped together, a button or
fader can control the overall system level, zone level, equalization
and delay, power ON/OFF, MUTE and loudspeaker function
switches such as CUT/HFA/HFC or CPL.
R1 has extensive facilities for storing and recalling system settings
allowing these to be repeated, as and when required. It is easy to
adjust R1 project files for use with a different set of equipment at
another location. Password protection is available to restrict
access.
R1 runs on PCs operating Microsoft Windows XP SP3/Vista SP1/7

X, using the Windows driver for R60
USB to CAN interface.
For older, Power PC based Mac computers, Windows emulation
needs to be used, together with the R60 driver for Mac/PPC. For
R70 Ethernet to CAN, no driver is needed.
All the latest available drivers, R1 example files that can be used
as templates and the TI 391 describing the effective use of R1
are available for download at www.dbaudio.com.
R10 Service software
R10 Service software enables the simultaneous firmware update
of multiple amplifiers from a central location. Using R10,
AmpPresets can be adjusted to the application requirements.
Integration with media control
For integration of d&b audiotechnik loudspeaker systems into
media control applications, the R70 Ethernet to CAN interface
is used. Media control modules (drivers) are available at
www.dbaudio.com.
EN 60849 voice alarm applications
