Real-Time Pack View

Pressing the Packs button on the front panel of the Control Unit or pressing Menu and navigating to Radio Pack Settings displays a list of all connected Radio Packs (RP), including detail of each RP’s model, frequency band, and mode.

CrewWare's RP display is a real-time view of each Radio Pack (RP) paired to the system.

  • The top portion of the window (or "Active panel") displays RPs in operation with “Live” connection status. (These RPs remain in the "Active" panel until CrewWare has been disconnected or closed, regardless of whether the RP is powered off.) 
  • The bottom portion of the window (or "Inactive panel") displays RPs that are paired to the system, but not yet logged in.

See Real-Time Pack View Pane (“Tile” View) for information about what is displayed on each RP icon. You may also hover the mouse over an individual RP icon to view additional information such as Profile Name, Device ID, Model Number, Operational Mode, etc. Double-click on an individual RP icon to access its Device Management detail view. Right-click on an individual RP in order to modify the list display, enable the Mic Kill option, or unpair the RP.

The Active and Inactive panels can be customized by right-clicking: In the menu that displays, hover over the Organize By option, and then choose RT (ascending or descending order) to display the RP icons under RT headers. Choose Group (ascending or descending order) to display the RP icons under Group headers (with color settings determined from the Group Management Tab.)
