REMOTE ETHERNET DEVICE 1 (RED-1)

RED-1 Remote Ethernet Device is a remote control for Audia® and Nexia® systems. It offers a simple, intuitive interface for end users and

can be installed and congured to t the unique needs of a particular application. The device connects via standard Ethernet cabling and is
powered over Ethernet, eliminating the need for custom cabling and local power sources. Multiple remote control panels can be connected
over large distances using standard network technology.

Features

Adjustment and/or initiation of up to 32 selectable system volumes and actions•
Volumes are any individual or grouped system levels, including inputs, outputs, matrix cross-points, etc.•
Actions are any individual or grouped system operations, including presets, source selection, mutes, ducking, combining, etc.•
Control functions are programmed in the Audia and Nexia system design software •
High contrast OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) display with a wide viewing angle•
The display brightness can be adjusted to t the ambient light present in the application and can automatically dim when not in use•
Capacitive touch technology eliminates protruding and moving parts to increase product reliability and longevity while •
simplifying cleaning
RED-1 surface mounts or ush mounts to most walls with a wide variety of mounting holes to accommodate standard US and •
international back boxes. RED-1F ush-mounts to any wall; mounts using the retrot plate (included) or installs in a Raco® 254

box for North American installation (not included).
330' (100m) Ethernet cable length can be extended with standard PoE network technology (routers, switches, hubs, •
media converters)
Connects with standard RJ45 or insulation displacement connector (IDC)•
Covered by • Biamp Systems’ ve-year warranty

Setup and Use

The Audia and Nexia software provides an intuitive interface for setup and programming of the RED-1. The information supplied by this
manual relates to physical connections and device setup. For more details on software setup, please consult the Audia or Nexia Help File.

Display

A graphic OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) display with white characters on a black background shows a list of all control items avail­able from that panel, as well as the last selected item. If a control item includes a volume control assignment, the bottom of the display will
show a graphical representation of a volume bar with the current level indicated to the right (percentage of maximum level).

Capacitive-touch Scroll Wheel

The capacitive-touch sensor provides a sleek interface for menu navigation and selection. The glossy-nish nger groove allows for scrolling
through and selecting available control items, as well as adjusting volume.

Connectors

Two Ethernet connectors—one rear-facing RJ45 and one top-facing insulation displacement connector (IDC)—are provided for
connecting to the network. Only one connector may be used. The RJ45 and IDC utilize unshielded twisted pair (UTP) wiring to connect
to an Audia or Nexia system. This connection is made to the Ethernet port of an Audia or Nexia unit, either directly (single station)
or via a network switch, and carries control data over Ethernet.

The RED-1 is powered using IEEE 802.3-2008 Power over Ethernet protocol as Class 1 devices. Either a PoE-capable network switch
or a PoE injector is required to power the device; there are no other provisions for power inlet.
