Figure 4.1: DCNM‑WD(E) Wireless Device bottom view
Preconditions Wireless Devices and DCNM-WAP
– The DCNM-WAP must be powered on and configured. Refer to First use configuration,
page 7, if required.
– All Wireless Devices must be:
– placed within the range of the DCNM-WAP.
– powered on (by inserting the Battery Pack and pressing the microphone request
button).
– de‑initialized.
A Wireless Device is de‑initialized when all LEDs on the Wireless Devices are on. To de-
initialize a Wireless Device, use a thin screwdriver to press and hold in the De‑init button on
the base of the Wireless Device (1) until all LEDs are on.
Preconditions web interface application
– The logged in user must have the access right: Configure system.
Initialization
1. Log in to the web interface application, and go to the Seats page. Refer to Seats, page
20.
2. Enable the Subscription mode.
3. Press the microphone request button of a Wireless Device.
– The Wireless Device starts subscribing, and the LED-bar above the microphone
request button starts alternating between red and green.
– When the LED-bar is off, the Wireless Device is subscribed.
4. Wait until a Wireless Device is subscribed before subscribing the next Wireless Device.
Subscribing a Wireless Device before the previous device has finished subscribing will
result in overlap.
– In overlap, the subscription is disabled for 2 minutes, which is shown in the web
interface application.
– Starting subscription before the current overlap time period has finished will restart
the overlap time period of two minutes.
– If another WiFi system is in subscription mode, this will also activate the overlap
period in the DCNM-WAP.
5. When all Wireless Devices are subscribed, disable the Subscription mode in the web
interface application. The subscription mode will automatically switch off after 2 minutes.
