Connecting to the Web UI

To connect to the Web UI, there are multiple options.

tip

The RM1 Web UI can only be accessed via ethernet or wireless network. This makes controlling RM1 a blast, as you can use any device connected to the same network, such as a tablet, phone or computer. You can even share control over RM1 with your co-host as you are not bound to the physical USB-Connection, which is only used for audio transfer and power supply.

View the device's IP address​

If you are already connected to a network and can not reach the Web UI via http://rm1.local, you can use the device IP address and enter it in your browser as http://[Device IP address]/ - e.g. http://192.168.1.12/

To view the device's IP address:

  • In the integrated display, swipe to the settings menu
  • Select Network
  • Scroll down a bit to see the IP field

Connect via internal Wireless Access Point (Hotspot)​

info

This mode is enabled by default.

RM1 can serve its own wireless network, so there is no need for any external networking gear. To enable wireless access point mode, use the device display:

  • Swipe to the settings menu
  • Select Network
  • Select Mode
  • Select Hotspot
  • RM1 will now open a wireless network called RM1-<XXXXX> (XXXXX is based on RM1's serial number). This may take up to a minute.

Now, you can access your device's Web UI.

Connect RM1 to Cable-Based Ethernet​

RM1 can connect to any ethernet network. To connect RM1 to ethernet:

  • Connect the cable to one of the ethernet ports at the back of the device
  • In the integrated display, swipe to the settings menu
  • Select Network
  • Select Mode
  • Select Wired

By default, DHCP is enabled, so the device will automatically retrieve its IP configuration.

Now, you can access your device's Web UI.

info

Dante operation is completely untouched by the settings given in RM1 and is configured by Dante Controller.

Connect RM1 to a Wireless Network​

RM1 can connect to any WPA2 secured wireless network. To connect RM1 to your wireless network:

  • Connect to your RM1 via the internal access point or cable-based ethernet (see above)
  • Open the device's Web UI
  • On the Web UI, go to Settings tab
  • In Network area, click Mode, Network Settings modal opens.
  • In the Network Settings Modal, click Mode
  • Select Wireless
  • Click Network and select the name (SSID) of your network
    • If your Network is not listed or SSID is hidden, select Join other Network
  • At Password, enter the password of your wireless network
  • Click Apply & Conenct
  • RM1 will join the wireless network with given credentials
warning

RM1 does not support wireless networks which require captive portals as well as WEP or WPA2 Enterprise secured networks.

info

If joining the wireless network fails, use the integrated display to enable hotspot or wired mode again.

Reset Network Settings​

In case your device is not reachable anymore or behaves strangely in a network, you may reset its network configuration:

  • Swipe to the settings menu.
  • Select Device
  • Select Reset Network

RM1 will reset all network related settings and switch to Hotspot mode. This process may take up to a minute. Afterwards, the device's network settings are back to factory defaults.
