CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION Additional Networking Hardware Requirements Depending on the number of loudspeakers in the RMS network, as well as the length of cabling used, additional networking hardware — such as repeaters, terminators, switches, or hubs — may be required. In some cases, multiple network interfaces (i.LON 10s) may be recommended. For more information, see Chapter 5, “Connecting RMS Networks.
RMS USER GUIDE WORKFLOW FOR RMS CONFIGURATIONS To configure an RMS network, use the following steps: 1. Install the RMS modules in the loudspeakers, if they have not already been installed (see Chapter 2, “The RMS Module”). 2. Make a note of each loudspeaker’s Neuron ID. The Neuron ID, which is displayed on each loudspeaker’s RMS user panel, is required when adding the loudspeaker to an RMS panel. You can use the datasheet on page 67 of this user guide for creating a list of loudspeakers in the setup. 3.
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 8
CHAPTER 2: THE RMS MODULE When equipped with an RMS module, Meyer Sound loudspeakers can be connected to an RMS network and monitored with the RMS software. Some Meyer Sound loudspeakers, such as the M-Series loudspeakers, come standard with the RMS module already installed. For other Meyer Sound loudspeakers, the RMS module is available as an option that can either be factory installed or installed at a later date by a qualified service technician.
CHAPTER 2: THE RMS MODULE Network Connectors To install an RMS module in an UltraSeries loudspeaker: The two bi-directional Weidmuller locking connectors transfer data to and from the RMS network. Two connectors are provided to allow for easy connection of multiple (daisychained) loudspeakers on the network. 1. Remove the loudspeaker’s AC power cable and audio cable and place the loudspeaker on a clean, low-static flat surface. Orient the loudspeaker with the top facing up. RESETTING THE RMS MODULE 2.

CHAPTER 5: CONNECTING RMS NETWORKS This chapter documents connecting RMS networks and includes the following topics: ■ “Twisted-Pair vs. Ethernet” on page 27 ■ “Twisted-Pair Cabling” on page 27 ■ “Ethernet Hubs and Switches” on page 28 ■ ■ ■ ■ The total length of twisted-pair cabling per network segment should not exceed 1640 ft (500 m). For systems with network repeaters, the distance to the first loudspeaker should also not exceed 1640 ft (500 m). ■ NOTE: For optimum performance, the twisted- .
CHAPTER 5: CONNECTING RMS NETWORKS For twisted-pair cabling, the following limitations apply: ■ Maximum number of loudspeakers: 50 ■ Maximum length of total cabling: 1640 ft (500 m) To reduce the amount of twisted-pair cabling in an RMS network, groups of neighboring loudspeakers can be daisychained.
RMS USER GUIDE DESIGN TIPS FOR RMS NETWORKS NETWORK SPECIFICATIONS Different designs have their own strengths and weaknesses. The following tips will help you make the most of your RMS network design: Maximum Loudspeaker Nodes ■ Avoid making “dedicated single runs” for each loudspeaker when designing a system. Make only a single twisted-pair run to loudspeaker locations or arrays when possible.
CHAPTER 5: CONNECTING RMS NETWORKS TWISTED-PAIR CONFIGURATIONS Some basic twisted-pair configurations are shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2. To ensure optimum performance when designing twisted-pair RMS systems, pay close attention to wiring, cable gauge, and connector requirements (see “Network Specifications” on page 29). CAUTION: Consider using a repeater in twisted-pair configurations if you are nearing 1,640 ft of total cable length, or if you are using VEAM connectors.
RMS USER GUIDE Twisted-Pair with Termination (Small- to Mid-Sized Venues) Figure 3 illustrates a twisted-pair configuration with a termination panel, which is often used in small- to mid-sized venue configurations. Proper planning of cable runs to loud- speakers and termination points are important for reducing excess cable in the network and minimizing network latency.
CHAPTER 5: CONNECTING RMS NETWORKS Twisted-Pair with Custom Connectors (Touring and Portable Applications) Touring and portable applications may require a more flexible and portable solution for twisted-pair cabling. Figure 4 illustrates a configuration where RMS data is connected to front-of-house with a “dry pair” on an analog multi-pair snake system. For these configurations, a proprietary cable connector, such as a 5-pin XLR, can be used to avoid any confusion with standard 3-pin XLR audio cables.
RMS USER GUIDE ETHERNET CONFIGURATIONS Compared to twisted-pair configurations, Ethernet-based RMS networks can have a larger number of loudspeakers on a single network, a wider area of available locations, and faster network speeds. Figure 5, Figure 6, and Figure 7 illustrate some basic Ethernet configurations. NOTE: The maximum length for Ethernet cables is 328 ft (1oo m). Do not exceed this length when connecting i.LON 10s to your computer, as well as to Ethernet switches and hubs.
CHAPTER 5: CONNECTING RMS NETWORKS Cat 5 patch cable Twisted-pair network cable Computer with Ethernet i.LON 10 (static IP address) Loudspeakers (up to 50) Intranet i.LON 10 (static IP address) Ethernet Twisted-pair Figure 7: Basic Ethernet Configuration Using Existing Intranet Infrastructure NOTE: For Ethernet-based RMS configurations, a closed, separate network is recommended to reduce congestion from outside network traffic.
RMS USER GUIDE Ethernet and Twisted-Pair Hybrid System (Large Venue Applications) For larger venues such as theatres, stadiums, arenas, hotels, and theme parks, an Ethernet-based network using multiple i.LON 10s is preferred for increased network speed. When designing an Ethernet-based system, it is still necessary to convert to twisted pair from the i.LON 10 to your loudspeaker locations. Doing so allows you to form a hybrid network of twisted-pair and Ethernet cabling.
