As an innovation in the fields of installation and system integration in networks K.M.E. will show the follow-up of the TCP/IP remote control module, the RCM V2.0 an optional accessory for active speakers QSA 200 and QSA 500 D. Improvements and new features have been developed for the RCM V2.0 with both, hardware and software reengineered extensively.
The hardware part was completed by a PowerOverEthernet circuit, which gives the user a redundant power supply for maximum safety within the installation. An automatic speaker impedance control system was included to complete the remote diagnosis feature. An integrated three-port Ethernet switch minimizes cabling complexity and the need for extensive external network equipment.
The firmware part of the module was changed by adding new functional modules (level meters and impedance check tool) and re-programming essential parts of the IP communication system (i.e. integration of the 'KME-Control' protocol over network port). Code optimization leads to faster loading times using the embedded web server and minimizes network traffic.
With CA 4, a powerful entertainment system and CA 8, a powerful variable Pro-Audio system K.M.E. presents two new active systems which can be customized individually to customer requirements. The Individualized PA systems can be optionally equipped with plug-in modules DDM, MM 2 and CM CA 4. Individual configurations as well as extensions enable an adaption of the systems to the needs and changing requirements of the user.
K.M.E. can be found on stand N33 at PLASA 2005.
