Like the rest of the SCOLA FM system, SCOLAbuddy is de-
signed to be largely automatic in use, requiring minimum
intervention by the user.
CHANNEL SELECTION
Synchronisation of the user’s reception channel with the
teacher’s transmission channel may be performed in dif-
ferent ways:
• The user can manually scan for the teacher’s channel
by pressing the channel button on the SCOLAbuddy
device.
• The teacher can wirelessly remote synchronise the
user’s SCOLAbuddy, using the SCOLAteach transmitter.
• A SCOLAclassmate can be installed in the classroom.
Then the user’s SCOLAbuddy will automatically be syn-
chronised and switched to the correct channel as they
enter the classroom.
eASy To use
RANGE
SCOLAbuddy has a range of 10 to 15 metres, making it
suitable for use in auditoriums as well as classrooms. The
risk of interference from FM systems in other rooms is
eliminated by using different channels in different rooms.
BUTTONS
For simplicity, SCOLAbuddy uses just three buttons: one
to turn the unit on or off and scan for the correct channel,
and the other two to adjust the volume level up or down.
LED´S
Two LED lamps provide a simple and intuitive indication of
battery strength and channel reception. When the LED´s
are green, SCOLAbuddy is working as it should.
Red indicates that the unit needs attention.
Two green lamps assure the teacher that the signal is be-
ing received and that battery power is sufficient.
The LED lamps can be switched off if desired.
