  • Patent number: 9894494
    Abstract: A system, apparatus and method for configuring a wireless sound reinforcement system detects a controller and two or more wireless adapters using an electronic device. The controller has a plurality of input channels and output channels. Each wireless adapter is associated with an entertainment device. Channel information about each input channel and output channel is obtained from the controller. Device information is obtained from each entertainment device via the wireless adapter. A network address is assigned to each input channel, output channel and wireless adapter. Each entertainment device is mapped to at least one of the input channels and/or output channels. The device information and channel mappings for the entertainment devices are provided to the controller.

  • Patent number: 9137730
    Abstract: A system, apparatus and method for configuring a wireless sound reinforcement system detects a controller and two or more wireless adapters using a router. The controller has a plurality of input channels and output channels. Each wireless adapter is associated with an entertainment device. Channel information about each input channel and output channel is obtained from the controller. Device information is obtained from each entertainment device via the wireless adapter. A network address is assigned to each input channel, output channel and wireless adapter. Each entertainment device is mapped to at least one of the input channels and/or output channels. The device information and channel mappings for the entertainment devices are provided to the controller. Data packets are received from the wireless adapters and the controller. A destination network address of each received data packet is identified and each received data packet is sent to the identified destination network address.
