Welcome to the world of multi-frequency FM
communication
Thank you for choosing the WallPilot, a fully automatic, wireless frequency
synchronizer especially developed for use with multi-frequency MicroLink receivers.
The WallPilot ensures that FM users entering a room are automatically switched to
the right channel. The process is fully automatic and completely independent of the
channel previously in use by the FM receiver. The WallPilot is ideal for schools and
other buildings where FM is used in several rooms at once.
The WallPilot is a Swiss quality product that will give many years of excellent service.

Choosing the right location

range
Correct

The choice of location depends on local conditions. Please consider the following:
• The WallPilot range is continuously adjustable from zero to two meters.
• The WallPilot synchronization signal reaches any FM receiver within the set range.
For this reason, FM users who are already in the room should not remain permanently within the reception range of the WallPilot signal (see figure).
The WallPilot transmits its synchronization signal equally in all directions (360°).
The signal can pass through walls, meaning it may also be picked up by an FM
receiver outside the room.
GA 029-0171-02 GB Englisch
The WallPilot is designed for mounting to a wall. Possible locations for the unit are:
• Inside the room, adjacent to the entrance door
The WallPilot then covers the room entry zone, which is the ideal location if there is
sufficient space. However, classroom desks and other working areas must be out of
range of the WallPilot.
• In a vacant area within the room
The floor can be marked to show where people should walk past in order to receive
the WallPilot synchronization signal. This option allows reduction of the operating
range to a minimum.
• In an entry corridor
This is the recommended position when the room is at the end of a corridor, and FM
users pass through the corridor solely for classroom access.
Preparing for installation
• Determine the approximate location according to the previous criteria.
• Put the WallPilot into operation (see next section) and either hold it against the wall
or rest it on a chair (standing up, not lying flat).
• Turn the range adjustment control (see page 11) fully clockwise (max.) and set the
range switch to ‘F1’ (short range).
• Do practical tests with hearing instruments and FM receivers.
• If the range is too great:
Decrease the range as necessary using the rotary control (turn counter-clockwise)
GA 029-0171-02 GB Englisch
• If the range is too small:
Set the range switch to ‘F2’ (medium range) and again turn the rotary range control
fully clockwise.
• Keep testing until the optimum range is adjusted. Once the range is optimized, test
to ensure that the WallPilot signal does not reach FM users at undesired locations
(e.g. in the corridor outside, sitting at desks, en route to the blackboard, etc.). In
case of problems, select a different location for the WallPilot. An alternative is to
restrict the range as necessary; in this case we recommend marking the floor to
indicate the WallPilot reception area.
• After finding a good location in this way, proceed to mounting the WallPilot to
the wall.

Drill fixation holes using the supplied template as a guide
Insert the screw anchors
Secure the WallPilot to the wall using the supplied fixation screws
Plug the power cord into the socket marked on the main unit.
The WallPilot can operate directly using the power cord, or on rechargeable batteries
(for approx. 12 hours)
☞ Mains power is recommended for ease of use.

Battery replacement
Push up to open lid
Remove main unit
Remove antenna cable
The WallPilot main unit includes a removable rechargeable battery. The battery and
power cord are the same types used with the Campus S.
Selecting the channel
As with the Campus S, a pair of channel selection buttons sets the FM channel.
Press one of the channel selection buttons for 2 seconds
▲ = selects a higher channel ▼ = selects a lower channel
☞ Ensure that the WallPilot is set to the designated channel for the room. This should
correspond to the channel used by the FM transmitter (e.g. the Campus S) operating
in the same room.

Adjusting the range
Rotary control on the side of the main unit.
Range switch
F1 = Close range
F2 = Medium range
F3 = Long range
Re-check the range after WallPilot installation and readjust if necessary.
☞ It is recommended to check the range regularly.

Key lock
The WallPilot has a built-in key lock. Similar to mobile telephones, it avoids unintentionally operating the keys. When activated, the key lock also prevents tampering by
children.
To lock keys: Press both keys simultaneously for 2 seconds. A « »-symbol appears
in the LCD display.
To unlock keys: Press the same keys simultaneously for 2 seconds.

Daily use
Putting into operation:
1 Switch on the WallPilot (press the On/Off button for 2 seconds)
2 Check the channel and battery charge state on the LCD
3 Activate the key lock if needed (see page 12 key lock)
13
When FM users enter the room:
The multi-frequency FM user’s receivers are set automatically to the channel selected
in the WallPilot.
Depending on how the multi-frequency MicroLink receivers are programmed, a brief
signal in the hearing instrument may indicate the change of channel.
Switching off:
• Switch off the WallPilot (press the On/Off button for 2 seconds)
If the WallPilot is operated with the rechargeable battery, simply plugging in the power
cord recharges the battery. The three battery segments in the LCD display blink to indicate charging.

Important notes
1. The hearing instrument and FM receiver must be switched on before the WallPilot
can change the receiver channel.
2. Ensure that the WallPilot is properly fixed and that the power cord is safely secured.
3. Avoid simultaneous use of multiple WallPilots with overlapping transmission ranges.
4. External influences such as interference from computer monitors can reduce the
WallPilot’s operating range.
