3.5 AMX Resource Management Suite (RMS)
AMX Resource Management Suite is to be incorporated into each Audio Visual System that uses an
AMX controller. The University requires the following system control/diagnostic joins provided:
 System On/Off Status – Monitors the current status of the system, such as whether it is
turned on or off. User can turn system On/Off from RMS, mimicking command structure
provided on touch panel or button room controller.
 Projector Status – System should report all of the following; power status, error status, and
source selection. User can turn Projector On/Off from RMS.
 Projector Operating Life Status – Monitors Projectors remaining lamp/laser life and
operational time. In spaces fitted with lamp projectors, the filter hours shall also be tracked
in RMS.
 Room Occupancy – if fitted. Monitors room occupancy from an Audio Visual Integrator
supplied and installed PIR motion sensor. If motion is not detected, a 2-hour countdown is to
start, with the system shutting down at the end of the countdown if no motion is detected.
When motion is detected, the countdown timer is automatically reset.
 Power control – Where a room is equipped with a power controller, controls will enable a
remote user to hard switch power (toggle on/off) devices within the equipment rack. The
system will display the current status and power draw of each port on the power controller.
