CHAPTER 6: RMS REMOTE MONITORING SYSTEM
TIP:
The loudspeaker can also be winked by
clicking the Wink button on the loudspeaker
icon in Compass RMS.
Wink/Activity LED (Green)
The green Wink/Activity LED indicates the status of the
loudspeaker:
During startup, the LED flashes green 10 times.
•
If the loudspeaker has not yet been discovered on the
•
RMS network, the LED is not lit after startup.
If the loudspeaker has been successfully discovered on
•
the RMS network, the LED flashes green continuously
and flashes more rapidly with increased data activity.
When the loudspeaker is winked, either by clicking the
•
Wink button in Compass RMS or by pressing the Identify
button on the RMS user panel, the LED is solid green.
The LED remains solid green until the loudspeaker is
unwinked.
TIP:
The Wink function is useful for identifying
the physical loudspeaker corresponding to a
loudspeaker icon in Compass RMS.
Remote Mute Switch
The recessed Remote Mute switch on the UPQ-D Series
RMS module (Figure 29) determines whether Compass RMS
can control muting and soloing of the loudspeaker. The
UPQ-D Series ships from the factory with the switch
enabled.
Figure 29: Remote Mute Switch
Disable: When the Remote Mute switch is set to Disable
•
(to the left), the loudspeaker cannot be muted or soloed
from Compass RMS.
Enable: When the Remote Mute switch is set to Enable
•
(to the right), the loudspeaker can be muted and soloed
from Compass RMS.
NOTE:
Compass RMS has a preference that
can be set to disable Mute and Solo functions,
eliminating any possibility of accidentally muting
loudspeakers.

RMS Network Connectors
The Weidmuller 2-conductor, locking connectors transfer
data to and from the RMS network. Two connectors are
provided to allow for easy connection of multiple
(daisy-chained) loudspeakers on the network. Included with
each RMS-equipped loudspeaker are RMS cable
connectors and mounting blocks for constructing RMS
cables. The mounting blocks allow the Weidmuller
connectors to be securely attached to the RMS module with
screws.
NEURON ID FOR RMS MODULE
Each RMS module has a unique 12-character Neuron ID
(NID) that identifies the loudspeaker on the network. The
NID is automatically detected by RMServer but can also be
entered manually, if necessary, when configuring RMS
systems in Compass RMS without loudspeakers present.
The NID label is located on the RMS user panel near the
orange Network connectors.
RESETTING THE RMS MODULE
The Identify button can be used to reset the UPQ-D Series
RMS module when powering on the loudspeaker. This
action will cause the module to be removed from the RMS
network.
To reset the RMS module:
1. Power down the loudspeaker.
2. Press and hold the Identify button.
3. While continuing to hold down the Identify button, power
on the loudspeaker.
4. After the Wink/Status LED flashes on and off, release the
Identify button. The RMS module is reset and the
loudspeaker is removed from the RMS network.
