PC Power Tool™ and
PC Power Tool ST
System programming software
Russound’s PC Power Tool and PC Power Tool ST
software provides a convenient computer-based
solution for programming RNET® multiroom audio
systems and Smart Tuners.
PC Power Tool is for setting up sources, zones, and
other system features on Russound RNET systems
such as the CAV6.6 and CAM6.6. It is also used for
creating custom source names on those systems.
PC Power Tool ST is for use with Russound Smart
Tuners (ST2, ST2S, ST2-XM, and ST2-XM2) and
tuner modules in the CAM6.6T and CAM6.6X systems. This tool is used for setting up AM/FM, XM,
and SIRIUS tuner preset banks, creating custom
bank and preset names, and configuring tuners for
RNET systems.
PC Power Tool and PC Power Tool ST can be used
for programming connected devices or for creating
project files to be loaded into devices later. In
addition, PC Power Tool ST allows real-time control
of certain functions on a connected tuner.
Both programs offer complete flexibility to manage
project files. They allow the installer to create a
project file in the office and later load the settings
into the device at the job site. The installer can also
read the current settings from a device and save
them as a project file. This allows editing the settings and reloading them or using the same settings
on a different device.
Each project file includes sections for installer and
customer information. The installer can also print
device settings for the job documentation.
Running on personal computers in the familiar
Windows environment, PC Power Tool and PC
Power Tool ST include the usual standard menu
options, including a built-in help menu.
The PC Power Tool kit includes two program CDs,
a deluxe punch-down tool, a quick-start guide, and
controller and keypad programming cables in a
rugged carrying case. The program discs include
product manuals for the CAV6.6 and CAM6.6 systems and the ST2 series Smart Tuners, all in PDF.
PC Power Tool ST is also available as a free download for current registered owners of the original PC
Power Tool software. Installers can register the software at www.russound.com/productregistration to
become eligible for updates and enhancements.
PC Power Tool and PC Power Tool ST
enable programming Russound Smart
Tuners and RNET® systems from a
Windows-based computer.
