1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
• Be sure to read the instructions in this section carefully before use.  
• Make sure to observe the instructions in this manual as the conventions of safety symbols and messages  
regarded as very important precautions are included.  
• We also recommend you keep this instruction manual handy for future reference.  
Do not expose the unit to rain or an environment where it may be  
splashed by water or other liquids, as doing so may result in fire or  
electric shock.  
WARNING  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could  
WARNING  
result in death or serious personal injury.  
• Use the unit only with the voltage specified on the unit. Using a voltage higher than that which is specified  
may result in fire or electric shock.  
• Do not cut, kink, otherwise damage nor modify the power supply cord. In addition, avoid using the power  
cord in close proximity to heaters, and never place heavy objects -- including the unit itself -- on the power  
cord, as doing so may result in fire or electric shock.  
• Avoid installing or mounting the unit in unstable locations, such as on a rickety table or a slanted surface.  
Doing so may result in the unit falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage.  
• Should the following irregularity be found during use, immediately stop the power supply to the unit and  
contact your nearest TOA dealer. Make no further attempt to operate the unit in this condition as this may  
cause fire or electric shock.  
· If you detect smoke or a strange smell coming from the unit.  
· If water or any metallic object gets into the unit  
· If the unit falls, or the unit case breaks  
· If the power supply cord is damaged (exposure of the core, disconnection, etc.)  
· If it is malfunctioning (no tone sounds.)  
· If it is malfunctioning (no image appears.)  
• To prevent a fire or electric shock, never open nor remove the unit case as there are high voltage  
components inside the unit. Refer all servicing to your nearest TOA dealer.  
• Do not touch a power plug during thunder and lightning, as this may result in electric shock.  
• Do not place cups, bowls, or other containers of liquid or metallic objects on top of the unit. If they  
accidentally spill into the unit, this may cause a fire or electric shock.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could  
CAUTION  
result in moderate or minor personal injury, and/or property damage.  
• Never plug in nor remove the power supply plug with wet hands, as doing so may cause electric shock.  
• When unplugging the power supply cord, be sure to grasp the power supply plug; never pull on the cord  
itself. Operating the unit with a damaged power supply cord may cause a fire or electric shock.  
• When moving the unit, be sure to remove its power supply cord from the wall outlet. Moving the unit with the  
power cord connected to the outlet may cause damage to the power cord, resulting in fire or electric shock.  
When removing the power cord, be sure to hold its plug to pull.  
• Avoid installing the unit in humid or dusty locations, in locations exposed to the direct sunlight, near the  
heaters, or in locations generating sooty smoke or steam as doing otherwise may result in fire or electric  
shock.  
• Do not place heavy objects on the unit as this may cause it to fall or break which may result in personal  
injury and/or property damage. In addition, the object itself may fall off and cause injury and/or damage.  
• Contact your TOA dealer as to the cleaning. If dust is allowed to accumulate in the unit over a long period of  
time, a fire or damage to the unit may result.  
• If dust accumulates on the power supply plug or in the wall AC outlet, a fire may result. Clean it periodically.  
In addition, insert the plug in the wall outlet securely.  
• Disconnect the power supply cord for safety purposes when cleaning or leaving the unit unused for 10 days  
or more. Doing otherwise may cause a fire or electric shock.

2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The TOA C-RM500 Remote Controller is used to remotely control TOA's Combination cameras over  
communication lines (RS-485). It can remotely control video image switching and cameras in combination with  
TOA's Multi-Switcher or Smart Switcher.  
3. FUNCTIONS  
• Display Selection  
The following screen formats can be selected for display of camera images connected to the Multi-Switcher:  
full screen, 4-segment, sequential 4-segment, 9-segment, 10-segment or 16-segment split-screen and  
sequential full-screen.  
• Manual Operation  
Controls the Combination camera's zoom, focus, pan and tilt functions.  
• Camera Position Selection  
Controls the Combination camera's orientation, and displays the camera image on the monitor in the  
selected orientation.  
• Function Key Programming  
Camera numbers or camera number/position combinations can be programmed into the function keys (A –  
H). Pressing the function key displays the camera image on the full screen. If position numbers have been  
set, images of the selected camera orientation can be displayed.  
• Abbreviated Number Display  
Permits camera numbers or camera number/position combinations to be programmed for numbers 1 – 512.  
Entering the programmed number followed by the SET key displays the corresponding camera number on  
the full screen, and the image of selected camera orientation if the position number has been set.  
• Alarm Function  
Controls the display in synchronization with alarm signals received from a camera. When an alarm signal is  
detected, the image of the corresponding camera takes display precedence. The C-RM500 Controller also  
features an Alarm Hold function that temporarily disables channel (camera number) switching in response to  
an alarm signal. This prevents the display from being forcibly switched to an alerted camera during close  
inspection (when the Multi-Switcher is connected).  
Equipment Which Can Be Controlled with the C-RM500  
Shown below are equipment that can be controlled with the C-RM500.  
Camera: C-CC501, C-CC504, C-CC551, and C-CC554  
Up to 31 cameras can be connected to the unit's Camera control terminal and controlled. The use  
of the C-IF500 Interface Unit will increase the number to up to 64 cameras (when the C-SS8  
switcher is in use). Note that the cameras cannot be controlled if their number is greater than the  
number of inputs of a connected switcher.  
Switcher: C-MS90D, C-MS90S, C-MS160D, C-MS160S, and C-SS8  
Only one switcher can be connected for remote camera control. However, as to the C-SS8, 1  
master-designated unit and up to 7 slave-designated units can be connected to remotely control  
the cameras.  
About the Camera Control Terminal  
The Camera control terminal is used to connect the C-CC501, C-CC504, C-CC551, or C-CC554 Combination  
Camera or the C-IF500 Interface Unit. Up to 31 pieces of equipment can be connected to the terminal.  
About the Descriptions in This Manual  
• The explanations in this manual assume that the C-RM500 Remote Controller is connected to a  
C-MS160D/S or C-MS90D/S Multi-Switcher and the C-SS8 Smart Switcher.  
• Camera number: Refers to the camera input terminal number connected to the switcher.  
• Position number: Combination camera orientation can be programmed for No. 1 – 255.
