Renkus-Heinz, the world leader in steerable sound, has announced the official
release of RHAON II for Iconyx Gen5. RHAON II represents the next generation of
RHAON (Renkus-Heinz Audio Operations Network), offering a dramatically
reinvented approach to system design and implementation.

With a new and intuitive, device-centric UI, streamlined workflow, and more than
200% faster operation, RHAON II makes faster and more intuitive setup a reality,
even for the most challenging projects.

RHAON II System Manager has been completely redesigned from the ground up,
using highly structured modular code for greater stability and expandability. The
result is a new, more robust RHAON technology – faster, more reliable, with a
streamlined, intuitive workflow. RHAON II is easy to program, easy to use, and fully
compatible with both Gen5 and legacy Renkus-Heinz Iconyx series products.

RHAON II’s new, network-agnostic interface has been designed to work with
tomorrow’s networking protocols as well as today’s. Currently supporting AVDECC
IEEE1722.1 and CobraNet, RHAON II has been structured to allow easy
implementation of today’s and tomorrow’s emerging protocols. Support for multiple
NICs, and wireless operation (where supported) makes RHAON II easy to integrate
into existing network infrastructure.

RHAON II is fully integrated with Renkus-Heinz Iconyx and IC Live Gen5
technologies, delivering the power of advanced beam steering algorithms and
UniBeam Technology for dramatically more uniform coverage, increased output,
and faster setup and deployment.

“People always say you have to choose two out of three – better, faster, or
cheaper,” remarked Rik Kirby, Renkus-Heinz VP Sales and Marketing. “But with
Gen5 and RHAON II, we’ve managed to achieve them all. Iconyx Gen5 delivers
better output with increased control, faster operation using direct, industry-standard
communications, and greater cost-effectiveness with innovations like our new
hybrid column arrays. Better, faster, and more economical.”
