Select the Access Point that will be used for the new Configuration and open its control software. The APT must be
open (not already assigned to a group) in order to start a new configuration.
Go to the Configuration tab.
Select that Access Point from the drop down list in Row 1. Use the ID button to ensure the correct Access Point is se
lected.
Select the charging station(s) and output device(s) to complete the Group.
Repeat 4-5 for up to 10 Groups in the Configuration.
Enable the Lock Configuration to improve network performance.
Customize the Configuration as desired from the Preferences tab.
Note: Ensure that all APTs are connected to the same network and set to the same subnet, even if they are assigned to a separate Configuration. This en
sures the best system performance, highest channel count, and tightest digital audio clocking for the installation.
Locking the Configuration
Use the Lock Configuration feature to improve network performance and system stability. It is best practice to lock a configura
tion after setup to greatly reduce network traffic from MXW equipment. When systems exceed 15 APTs on the same network,
configuration locking is required for stable performance.
When locked, groups in that configuration are not editable.
Lock the Configuration for Best System Performance
After setting up all your MXW groups, lock the configuration to minimize network traffic.
Wireless Management
Overview of Channel Coordination
The MXW system operates using time division multiple access (TDMA) to carry MXW channels (audio and control data) within
defined RF spectrum. Channels are automatically assigned to the time-slots by the access point, which manages the spectrum
and seamlessly changes slots if interference is detected. The MXW system makes this adjustment automatically and without
audio artifacts.
