If you are configuring the slave device, please select Slave, and then
enter the IP address for the master MCU.
3 Click OK and restart the device if prompted.
When all of the stacked devices are started, go to the Hardware Monitoring
page within the Web configuration page for your master device, and you will
see the information for stacked devices being displayed in Device List.
Right-click the slave MCU and select Login Module. The corresponding
device management interface will be displayed, allowing you to complete the
device-related management settings for slave RMX.
Conference Scheduling in Stacking
When the stacking procedure is finished, only the master RMX device can be
used for conference scheduling and you cannot use the slave device to create
a conference. Logically, the stacking can consolidate multiple RMX devices so
that the resources allocated for other slave devices can be shared via the
master RMX in order to create more conferences and support more
participants to join the conference. On the master device, you can click
Resource Usage on the right bottom of the screen to check the resource usage
on the master device and slave device separately.
The stacking has the following limitations:
Up to two devices are supported for stacking.
When stacked, no pure audio resources will be available on the system.
If the number of remaining resources for the master device and the slave
device are less than 4, no conferences can be held.
When stacked, one conference will consume one video resource point for
multicasting.
When stacked, the slave MCU can no longer use GK, SIP registration, QoS
and port locking settings.
The maximum number of conferences for a stacked RMX system can be
doubled when compared with a single machine.
