Decommissioning Loudspeakers
Decommissioned loudspeakers that are online and con-
nected to the RMS network are identified with a red LED in
the lower left of their icons; in Text view, these loudspeakers
are further identified with a “DE-COMM” label. Control of
loudspeakers (muting, soloing, etc.) from the RMS network
is only possible once they’ve been commissioned.
Offline Loudspeakers
If a loudspeaker icon displays both a red LED in the lower
left and a yellow “i” in the lower right, then the loudspeaker
is commissioned and offline.
Deleting Loudspeakers
To delete a loudspeaker:
1. Select the page containing the loudspeaker you want to
delete.
2. Right-click the loudspeaker and choose Delete.
3. When prompted to confirm the deletion, click Yes. The
loudspeaker is removed from all pages in the panel.
4. When prompted with the Remove Loudspeaker from
Network dialog box, click Yes to decommission the
loudspeaker and remove it from the database. If you
intend to use the loudspeaker in a different panel or
page, click No to keep the loudspeaker commissioned.
TIP: You can also remove loudspeakers in the
RMS Network Server and Manager (from the
Network Manager dialog box).
