The MCS 4000 Mission Control Software allo-
ws you to display the entire setup of a WMS
system on screen and to edit all settings sim-
ply by mouse click.
All relevant data, such as RF level, audio
level, diversity activity, battery status of the
transmitters, Mute/Off etc. are displayed in
real time on a graphic user surface, with
important warning messages being inserted
so as to catch the eye.
You can even set up the basic parameters of
a complete system from the computer:
remote control software puts Environment
Scan, Auto Setup and Rehearsal Check at
your fingertips.
“History” recording is another special feature
of MCS 4000 – i.e., storing the monitoring
data of all channels in a log file to help with
the setup and the analysis of completed
system.
You can also take a snapshot of the current
status any time, which is especially helpful if
you want to mail it to off-site co-workers.
Linking a wireless system to the computer
only requires the integration of one or several
WMS 4000 HUB Network Concentrators plus
a computer (>500 MHz) with an Ethernet
port.
MCS 4000 is available for Windows, Mac OS X,
and Linux. A demo version as well as software
and firmware updates and drivers can be
downloaded from www.akg.com.

“Get a Cup” Setup Mode
Finding and setting the right frequencies for a multichannel
setup is a difficult and time-consuming job. The WMS 4000
provides several functions including Auto Setup and
Environment Scan to speed up the process. The MCS 4000 is
an incredibly convenient software tool. It scans the system's
RF environment and uses an integrated frequency manage-
ment database to calculate optimum frequencies. It auto-
matically programs these frequencies into the receivers via
the HUB 4000 to complete the setup while you have a cup of
coffee.

“Moving PC” Rehearsal Mode
When working with WMS 4000 multichannel systems, you
can optimize operating convenience and reliability by simply
linking the WMS 4000 PC network components with standard
PC accessories. This allows you to send receiver data through
the HUB to a wireless LAN, and receive them on a tablet PC.
In the REHEARSAL mode, you can take the PC on the stage
and monitor important data such as RF levels on site. This
makes it incredibly easy to set up the most complex system
and ensures maximum operating reliability.
