Download Rvon-1 Firmware Through Azedit - RTS EKP-632 User Manual

6. From the Device Channel drop down list, select Channel 1. There may be two channels
listed, but the connection can only be made through channel 1.
7. From the CODEC Type drop down list, select the CODEC type.
8. From the Packet Size drop down list, select the size of each audio packet.
NOTE: A CODEC is an algorithm used to compress audio. Codecs dictate the quality of audio you hear and the
network bandwidth used. The packet size determines how much audio data is carried across the network
in each transmitted packet. The CODEC type and packet size chosen require different amounts of
bandwidth from the network. As with the CODEC type, the packet size you choose for the audio
transfer will affect the audio you hear and the bandwidth you use over the network. The larger the audio
packet you choose to use, the lower the bandwidth used. However, the larger packet size can result in a
higher delay and longer gaps if the packet is lost. On the other hand, smaller packet sizes result in
larger bandwidth use, but lower delays and smaller gaps if the packet is lost. The Intercom System
Engineer and the Network Designer may want to work together in choosing the CODEC type and packet
size suitable for the size of the network, so degradation of network resources does not occur.
9. Select Enable VAD (Voice Activity Detection), if you want to conserve bandwidth when the
audio level is below a given threshold.
NOTE: VAD saves network bandwidth by stopping the flow of audio packets when silence is de-
tected. VAD is similar to VOX.
10. Once you are completely finished, click Apply.

Download RVON-1 Firmware Through AZedit

NOTE: AZedit sends firmware directly to the RVON-1 card over Ethernet. This is different from other I/O
cards (except the RVON-8) that receive the firmware from the Master Controller. For this reason, verify the
PC running AZedit is able to contact the RVON-1 card via the network, or is configured with a Gateway IP
Address that can contact the RVON card. If it is not, AZedit will not be able to find the RVON-8 card. To test
the connection, ping the RVON card from a command line. For more information on how to test for a connec-
tion, see Appendix A.
To download the RVON-1 Firmware, do the following:
1. Open AZedit.
2. From the Status menu, select Software Versions and then Keypanels.
The Keypanel Version screen appears.
3. On the Keypanel Version screen, select the Show RVON-1 Versions check box.
4. Select and right click the keypanel which has the RVON-1 installed, and then select
Download RVON-1.
The Download Device Firmware screen appears.
