NOTICE:

• When disconnecting the LAN cable from the Dante/PoE port, wait at least five seconds before reconnecting the cable. Otherwise, damage or malfunctions may result.

• With a Dante network, do not use the EEE function* of the network switch. Although mutual power consumption settings are automatically adjusted between switches that support the EEE function, some switches do not perform that properly. As a result, the switch's EEE function may be enabled inappropriately in the Dante network, possibly degrading clock synchronization performance and interrupting audio. Therefore, please note the following.

• When using managed switches, turn off the EEE function on all ports used for Dante. Do not use a switch that does not allow the EEE function to be turned off.

• When using unmanaged switches, do not use switches that support the EEE function. In such switches, the EEE function cannot be turned off.
  * EEE (Energy-Efficient Ethernet) function: Technology that reduces the power consumption of Ethernet devices during periods of low network traffic; also known as Green Ethernet or IEEE802.3az.

RSSI SCAN MODE SYSTEM LIST MODE

SYSTEM LIST MODE allows to search and find other RM-WAPs and neighboring DECT base stations. Devices will be listed with their RFPI (Radio Fixed Part Identity) and the RSSI (Radio Signal Strength Indicator). Devices with a signal strength of -62 dBm or higher might interfere with the DECT communication of the RM-WAP that is runnign the scan. Interference might lead to unexpected audio loss or microphone disconnections. It is recommended to enable DECT synchronization to synchronize the DECT clock between different WAPs and adjust RF power levels to prevent signal interferences. Please note that RM wireless microphone and other DECT mobile devices, know as Portable Parts, cannot be found in this mode.
