DESCRIPTION

RDNET BOARD is an additional board for DMA amplifiers units that allows to connet your devices into an RDNet network.

Thanks to this board it is be possible to setup all the amplifiers parameters and a real time monitoring of their functioning.

Before proceed with RDNET BOARD installation, be sure the DMA device is tuned off and disconnected from main power supply source.

RDNet is a robust management network and control platform for small, medium and large sized sound systems, as well as complex and extended installations. Based on a proprietary network protocol, the software provides intuitive control and monitoring of every connected device/object in the RCF audio system.

To use the RDNET BOARD it is necessary to download the latest RDNet software version on the RCF website www.rcf.it.

Refer to RDNet software user manual for system requirements and installation procedure.
