SCOLA CLASSMATE and the other parts of the SCOLA system are developed specifically for children and educational environments. These instructions therefore primarily address parents and teachers.

How does SCOLA CLASSMATE work? During the first minute after SCOLA CLASSMATE has been turned on, the synchronisation channel can be programmed into the memory. This is done with a SCOLA TEACH33/44 or SCOLA programmer. Response to synchronisation signals A SCOLA FLEX that has gone into “sleep” mode after a period of not receiving any transmission signal from an FM transmitter will first “wake up” and then be synchronised to the channel used in the classroom.
Installation Placement SCOLA CLASSMATE is intended to be mounted on a wall in the classroom or placed in its stand on a shelf or table. We recommend that it is placed about 1.5 m above the floor. The best way to ensure correct channel synchronisation is to place the SCOLA CLASSMATE close to the entrance door. Wall mounting 1. Find a convenient location for mounting the SCOLA CLASSMATE. 2. Use the wall mount as a guide to mark the location of the two holes. 3. Drill the holes in the wall. 4.
5. Insert the screws through the wall mount washers and screw the screws into the holes. Take care not to bend the wall mount during mounting. 6. Plug the power supply into the USB connector. Use the provided extension cord, if necessary. In the stand on a shelf If the SCOLA CLASSMATE is not intended to be located permanently in one place, for example if it is needed for testing in different classrooms, it can be placed in its stand as shown. 7.
LED legend Operation The LED indicates as follows: Switching the SCOLA CLASSMATE on/off Press the on/off button to turn the SCOLA CLASSMATE on. Constant red: 1. Normal function on external power 2.
Programming During the first minute after the SCOLA CLASSMATE is switched on, it is possible to set / change the synchronisation channel. Set the SCOLA TEACH33/44 to the required channel, or set the SCOLA programmer to the appropriate channel in “Set channel” under the “ FLEX programming” menu. Hold the SCOLA TEACH33/44 / SCOLA programmer within a distance of approximately 50 cm from the SCOLA CLASSMATE and press the “Enter” button.
6. Please be sure to keep all SCOLA units, accessories and hearing aids out of the reach of children, who might place them in their mouths. 7. Do not use SCOLA CLASSMATE on aeroplanes or in hospitals without permission. 8. If you use the SCOLA FM system together with equipment which is connected to the electrical mains, this equipment must meet the safety requirements stated in the international standard IEC 60065. 9.
