Introduction
Connecting your Computer and the V-1200HD
You use an Ethernet cable to connect the computer on which V-1200HD RCS is installed and set up and the V-1200HD.
* Before you start, make the computer network settings as described on page 5.
1. Start the computer on which V-1200HD RCS is installed.
2. Connect the computer and the V-1200HD using an Ethernet cable.
* Use a Category 5e or higher shielded Ethernet cable for connection. Crossover cables and straight cables are both supported.
* Connect no devices other than the V-1200HD, V-1200HDR units, and computers installed with V-1200HD RCS to the same network.
3. Turn on the power to the V-1200HD.
4.
Windows
At the computer’s “Start” menu, select “All Programs”  “Roland V-1200HD RCS”  “V-1200HD RCS” to start the program.
Mac
In the computer’s “Applications” folder, double-click “V-1200HDRCS(.app)” to start the application.
5. Select “Online Mode.”
V-1200HD RCS starts.
* For details about the startup modes, refer to “V-1200HD RCS Startup Modes” (p. 7) .
6. Clicking “Online Mode” makes the “LINK” indicator in V-1200HD RCS and the “LINK” indicator on the V-1200HD light up, and the
connection is established.
NOTE
If you’re using a computer running Windows, then if the Ethernet cable is disconnected and reconnected after communication between the V-1200HD
and V-1200HD RCS has been established, communication might fail to be reestablished. If this happens, you can establish communication while
the devices are connected by going to the computer’s network settings and setting Local Area Connection to “Disable” and then again to “Enable.”
V-1200HD RCS Startup Modes
V-1200HD RCS has two startup methods: an online mode and an oine mode.
Online Mode
You select the online mode when actually operating the V-1200HD by remote control.
This does not function unless the computer and the V-1200HD are connected.
Oine Mode
You select the oine mode at times such as when conducting prior training or planning system conguration.
This functions even when the computer and the V-1200HD are not connected.
When in the oine mode, V-1200HD RCS is connected to a V-1200HD simulator that operates internally in V-1200HD RCS.
NOTE
5 When V-1200HD RCS has been started in the oine mode, it cannot be used to operate the V-1200HD remotely even if the computer and the
V-1200HD are connected.
5 The V-1200HD simulator that operates in the oine mode always starts in the default state. Any and all settings made in the V-1200HD
simulator are lost when you quit V-1200HD RCS.
* Except for a few functions, you can save settings made in the oine mode on the computer. For details, refer to “Saving Setting Values As a
File on the Computer” (p. 81).
