CHAPTER 1
Touring or Portable Applications
Touring or portable applications may require a flexible
twisted-pair network. Using a laptop and keeping your
existing inventory of loudspeakers commissioned and
organized will make using RMS simple to setup and easy
to use.
RMS data can be connected to FOH through any "dry
pair" on an analog multi-pair snake system, and it’s helpful
to use a proprietary connector, such as a 4-pin XLR
connector, to avoid possible confusion with microphone or
line input signal paths.

RMS data can be connected to Front of House
through any “dry pair” on an analog multi-pair
snake system. Avoid possible confusion with
microphone or line input signal paths by clearly
labeling 3-pin XLR connectors – or use a
