3 Introduction

The OMS Main Station is the beginning of a new era of intercom systems called RTS Digital Partyline. This powerful single system bridges legacy analog partyline users who wish to migrate to digital connectivity while using their existing equipment. Furthermore, OMS connects both wired and wireless intercom products. OMS represents an incredibly versatile and easy-to-use solution for a wide range of applications - a communications multi-tool for theaters, houses of worship, industrial, broadcast, and event venues.

Using OMNEO, OMS interconnects with the digital matrix products including keypanels, ROAMEO wireless and digital beltpacks. OMNEO is an architectural approach to connecting devices that need to exchange information such as audio content or device control (Dante & control). In addition, OMS can serve as a stand-alone base station for ROAMEO, RTS' digital wireless communication solution based upon DECT.

The OMS is available in five licensed models; Analog, Analog Plus, Basic, Intermediate and Advanced. The OMS allows for increased capacity and functionality as business needs grow. The OMS has the easy-to-use RTS digital icon-based front panel display along with a simplified menu structure to allow system configuration and control from the front panel and display.

- Supports 4 ports of analog AIO 4-wire and 4 ports of analog 2-Wire (RTS / Audiocom / Clear-Com formats supported). Auto nulling (echo cancellation) capability available on 2-Wire interfaces.

- Supports up to 8 keypanels (any mix of analog/OMNEO/RVON) depending upon product licensing (maximum four analog).

- Supports up to 40 OMNEO or ROAMEO beltpacks and up to 16 party lines. Ethernet connectivity through copper or fiber connections available.

- Up to 4 RVON channels available with the Advanced license for remote networking with other RVON capable equipment. G.711a, G.711μ, G.729ab and G.722 codecs supported.

– Includes stage announce output and additional OMNEO expansion audio ports reserved for connecting and networking with other OMS units. These expansion ports allow additional system capacity and partyline capability as part of a distributed system.

7.2 TIF and legacy keypanel cable overview

Each OMS system has unique requirements for cables, so it is not practical to apply these with the unit. Most of these cables need to be custom built.

Bosch recommends use of 22AWG, stranded, twisted pair cable for the connections. For most applications, unshielded cable is adequate. Shielded cable is only required when some condition in the environment is inducing noise into the intercom system. For legacy keypanels and the TIF, the cables should have three (3) twisted pairs. To connect 4-wire audio devices, you need two (2) twisted pair cables.

For additional pinouts, see Connector pinouts, page 19.

For devices connected to the OMS, ALL CALL causes an incoming call notification to the local user by a combination of visual, audio, or haptic notification. In this instance, ROAMEO beltpacks act as keypanels, with the notification being a flashing alpha or other configurable behaviors.

For partyline devices connected to OMS, pushing the ALL CALL button sends a notification to every device that is a member of the called party lines. For example, an OMS operator pushes the ALL CALL button prior to ALL TALK. The ALL CALL would serve as an alert to beltpack operators to put on their headsets and force the listen function on user stations so the user can hear the ALL TALK message.

For more information, please reference All talk, page 65.

10.17 RSTP

RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol) is a fault tolerant Ethernet protocol, which allows the system to be set up with multiple Ethernet connection paths to the same access points. This provides a redundant connection if one connection path fails. The RSTP connection paths prevent the possibility of packets getting into an infinite loop.

RSTP is an IEEE standardized network protocol (802.1w) ensuring a loop-free topology for an Ethernet LAN (Local Area Network), evolved from STP (Spanning Tree Protocol). OMNEO fully supports RSTP IEEE802.1w. When using switches that support this technology, it is necessary to adjust the RSTP parameters of the switch according to the following:

Hello Time: 9 seconds

Maximum Age: 22 seconds

Forward Delay: 30 seconds

This is supported by the major switch brands.

33.3 Alarm troubleshooting

Alarm Popup Description SolutionCheck if:
Lost contact with keypanel (port)Lost contact with keypanel- The device powered off.- The device was physically removed from network (e.g. bad cable, loose connection, cable accidentally removed) or the network configuration is no longer in the same network subnet as OMS.
Control Port Ethernet link downFor each Ethernet connector, a separate alarm stating that the link went down (e.g. cable accidentally unplugged).- There is a bad cable- There is a loose/intermittent cable connection- The switch or some other device in the network powered-off.
OMNEO RJ45 Link A Ethernet link downA redundant OMNEO network link went down.- There is a bad cable- There is a loose/intermittent cable connection.- The switch or some other device in the network powered-off.
Excessive power-ups for keypanel (port)A keypanel has disconnected/reconnected at an unusual rate.- Power-cycle the device and/or OMS.- Check for bad cabling.
OMNEO audio link failed for (port)An OMNEO or RVON audio link went down.- The device powered off.- The device was physically removed from network (e.g. bad cable, loose connection, cable accidentally removed) or the network configuration is no longer in the same network subnet as OMS.
Keypanel (port) is babblingA keypanel is pressing keys at an unusual rate.- Power cycle the device.
Excessive communication errors for (port)Excessive communication errors in the keypanel data link.- Power cycle the device and/or OMS.- Check for bad cabling.
keypanelport (portport number) FPGA mismatchKeypanel has a mismatch between OMNEO and RVON firmware components.- If the version string is appended with "R" (e.g. 1.6.0R) then download the RVON Audinate image with the Firmware Upload Tool.- If the version string does not have an "R" then download the OMNEO Audinate image with the Firmware Upload Tool.
Temperature above recommended operating conditionsOMS is running outside of recommendation operating conditions (too hot)Reduce the ambient temperature by:- Increase airflow around OMS.- Ensure that OMS has breathing room around the top/bottom/sides.- Move OMS to a different room.- Move any nearby heat sources away from OMSUse the temperature status menu to monitor changes to the temperature. If the temperature readings appear incorrect, one of the sensors may be damaged, service is required.
Temperature below recommended operation conditionsOMS is running outside of recommendation operating conditions (too cold)Increase the ambient temperature by:- Move OMS to a different room.- Move any nearby cold sources away from OMS.- Add a heat source near OMS. Use the temperature status menu to monitor changes to the temperature. If the temperature readings appear incorrect, one of the sensors may be damaged, service is required.
2-Wire and RVON channels not availableSecond CPU is dead. - Power-cycle the OMS.- Download an older version of the firmware.
No MAC address defined for Control portDepending on which MAC address is missing, that network interface would not be operational.- Power-cycle the OMS.
OMNEO PTP clock synchronization unlockedThe OMNEO synchronization clock was lost.- Ensure the OMNEO clock master is always powered-on. You can select an OMNEO device as the "preferred master" and ensure that device is always powered-on.- Check that the network switches adhere to the recommended OMNEO switch settings. For more information, refer tohttps://products.rtsintercoms.com/binary/OMNEONetworkRequirementsAndConsiderations.pdf.
No OMNEO links are up None ofthe four OMNEO connectors has network links.- There is a bad cable.- There is a loose/intermittent cable connection.- The switch or some other device in the network powered-off.
OMNEO network interfaces are on different subnetsOMNEO Control and Audio interfaces are on different subnets.Check the OMNEO network settings in the menu Configuration | Network OMNEO:- If using static IP addresses, change one or both of the addresses so the subnets match.- If using DHCP, check the DHCP server settings and ensure OMS and the DHCP server can communicate on the network.- Power-cycle OMS. For more information on Subnets and Network Masks, refer tohttps://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/164015/understanding-tcp-ip-addressing-and-subnetting-basics.
OMNEO device name change Dante Controller changed the OMS's OMNEO device name.- If unintentional, change the name back using the front panel, IPedit, or AZedit.- If OMS has existing OMNEO connections, the change in device name will break those connections. To restore the connections, either revert the name back or reconfigure the connections with the new device name.
OMNEO interface - IP address conflict detectedDuplicate IP address conflict detected.- If using a DHCP server, check the settings and ensure all devices on the network can reliably communicate with the DHCP server.- If using static IP addressing, change the IP address to an address that is not in use.- Power-cycle OMS.
OMNEO software corrupted, recover with Firmware Upload ToolOMNEO software in the Audinate FPGA is corrupt.- Connect a PC on the same network as the OMS OMNEO network, and then open the Firmware Upload Tool on the PC. The Firmware Upload Tool should automatically detect the OMS OMNEO software is corrupt and download a recovery image. A popup window should appear with status updates.
More keypanels connected than allowed by licensesNumber of connected keypanel exceeds license limit.- Ensure the number of keypanels connected to OMS is within the limit per the licensed model type.- Contact sales to purchase additional keypanel seats. The max number allowed by OMS is eight keypanels.
Invalid key assignment deleted for (port)User tried to configure a key assignment on DBP which is not allowed (e.g. a point-to-point assignment)- Partyline devices can only have PL, UR, RY, special function assignment types.
