Chapter 1- Hardware Description
MPM and MPM+ Modes
MPM+ and MPM cards installed in the system cannot be used simultaneously. Therefore, the RMX can operate in either MPM or MPM+ Mode.
Operating Mode Selection During Startup / Restart
•When started with Version 4.0 installed, the RMX enters MPM+ Mode by default, even if no media cards are installed.
•When upgrading a system from Version 3 (or lower) with Version 4.0 software downloaded from the Polycom Resource Center, the RMX enters MPM Mode by default.
•The RMX only switches between MPM and MPM+ Card Configuration Modes if MPM/MPM+ cards are removed or swapped while it is running.
•The Card Configuration Mode switch occurs during the next restart.
•Installing or swapping MPM/MPM+ cards while the system is off will not cause a mode switch when the system is restarted – it will restart in the Card Configuration Mode that was active previous to powering down.
Table 4 summarizes the Operating Mode After Next Restart resulting from of adding or swapping MPM/MPM+ cards in a running system.
