Ethernet connections (AEW-R5200): An RJ-45 jack on the
rear panel of each AEW-R5200 provides an Ethernet 10 BaseT
data/control connection from both of its channels to an external
computer system. Data monitored includes actual, real-time
“RF” and “AF” levels for receiver channels with direct Ethernet
connections to the associated computer. All other linked
receivers in a system supply control-function access and all their
data – except for “RF” and “AF” levels – to the
computer connected to the Master receiver.
Multiple AEW-R5200 receivers in a system can each provide
real-time “RF” and “AF” levels to the associated computer if
each AEW-R5200 has its own Ethernet connection, through an
Ethernet hub, to the computer.
Other than being able to “see” the “RF” and “AF” levels, all
functions of all receivers in a linked system can be
monitored and controlled from the computer connected to the
Master receiver.
Details of the computer setup and operation will be found in
a separate AEW Control Interface manual provided with
AEW-R5200 receivers and 5000 Series systems.

4 HEADPHONE CHANNEL INDICATOR: Shows which receiver
channel is feeding the monitor headphones.
Channel 1 / Channel 2
5 / 9 ALERT INDICATOR: The Alert Indicator lights:

(b) When no RF signal is received from the transmitter,
(c) When only one or two RF signal-strength bars are on,
(d) When the transmitter is in the Mute mode,
(e) When audio modulation level from the transmitter is
close to the clipping point (AF +6 bar), or
(f) When the “LOW BAT” warning appears in the LCD
(transmitter battery is weak).
