CHAPTER 4: RMS REMOTE MONITORING SYSTEM
The X-800C is optionally available with the RMS remote
monitoring system module, allowing it to be connected to an
RMS network. RMS allows real-time monitoring of multiple
Meyer Sound self-powered loudspeakers from a Windows-
based computer. The RMS host computer communicates
with Meyer Sound loudspeakers (equipped with RMS mod-
ules) via a simple twisted pair network, or an Ethernet net-
work using an FT-10 to Ethernet adapter.
NOTE: For the latest RMS system require-
ments, visit the Meyer Sound website

( http://www.meyersound.com ).
NOTE: RMS-equipped loudspeakers include a
Mute Jumper to enable the loudspeaker’s mute
and solo capability. Meyer Sound currently ships
RMS-equipped loudspeakers with the Mute Jumper
installed. These mute-enabled loudspeakers can be
identified by the blue “ME” sticker on the face of the
RMS module. Older RMS-equipped loudspeakers
can easily be mute-enabled by installing the Mute
Jumper. For more information, refer to the
RMS User
Guide .
NOTE: The RMS software allows you to dis-
able Mute and Solo functions to eliminate any
possibility of accidentally muting loudspeakers. Mute
and solo capability can also be disabled by removing
the Mute Jumper from RMS modules. For more infor-
mation, refer to the
RMS User Guide .
NOTE: RMS does not control AC power.
RMS SOFTWARE
The optional RMS software provides extensive system sta-
tus and performance data for each loudspeaker, including
amplifier voltage, limiting activity, power output, fan and
driver status, as well as mute and solo capability. Loud-
speakers are added to the RMS network and assigned a
node name during a one-time commissioning procedure
where the loudspeaker is identified by either entering its
unique Neuron ID, or by pressing its Service button.
Once loudspeakers are identified on the RMS network, they
appear in the RMS software as icons and views; they are
also automatically added to the RMS database on the host
computer.
