Installation Instructions AVMW

Install AVMW Box

1. Use retro ring template sheet (included with Raco® retro

ring packaging) to trace hole to be cut at desired mounting

locations. (See Figure 2)

NOTE: AVMW must be installed within 10’ of the AVMA input

box so that the cables can be easily attached from the

AVMA to the AVMW. The AVMW should be installed at

lightswitch height. (See Figure 1)

NOTE: If AVxTR (assisted listening device) is to be installed,

refer to AVxTR installation instructions to install AVxTR

module into AVMW prior to installation into wall!

Figure 1

2. Use drywall cutter to cut hole at marked location on wall.

(See Figure 2)

Figure 2

3. Connect retro ring to electrical box outlet by removing two

screws from box and using those screws to connect ring to

box. (See Figure 3)

Figure 3

4. Remove knockout from electrical box and route 48" CAT5e

cable from AVMA through hole.

IMPORTANT ! : In order to comply with building codes, it

is highly recommended that a conduit and/or strain relief

clamps are used to route cables through electrical boxes.

5. Place electrical box into cut hole and secure using retro

ring. Turn screws clockwise to extend work wings and

secure box to wall. (See Figure 4)

7. Place AVMW box into electrical box.

8. Use four #6-32 x 1/2" Phillips flathead screws to secure

AVMW to electrical box.

9. Use Decora plate and four #6-32 x 1/4" flathead screws to

secure AVMW input box to the wall. (See Figure 6)

Figure 6

Wireless Microphone (AVxHM)

All CoPilot microphone devices use a battery charger with 6V

wall power supply included. The power supply is UL/Energy

Star rated and plugs into a standard 120VAC outlet.

All microphone devices have a fast charging time; 50%

recharge in 30 minutes, 100% FULL recharge in 90 minutes.

During charging front LED will begin as bright green and when

fully charged will dim. This is normal. The units will operated for

5-6 hours of continuous talk time when fully charged.

Charging Stand Assembly

1. Insert the metal holder into the base allowing the

microphone to be placed into the holder and supported

vertically in the base. (See Figure 7)

2. Plug charging cable into wall and charging base. (See

Figure 7)

3. Insert microphone into metal holder on base until

microphone is fully charged (LED light = green). (See Figure

NOTE: The 6V wall charger power supply terminates to the

USB mini jack on the base. When fully charged in 90

minutes, the microphone will operate for 6-8 hours of

continuous talk time.

NOTE: Charging stand has LED charging status colors of:

• Blue = ON

• Red = Charging

• Green = Fully Charged

Installation Instructions AVMW

Wireless Device Activation

The AVMW module has two channels operating at independent

frequencies (2.4GHz/900MHz).

Channel 1 is for the Teacher Microphone (AVxLM)

Channel 2 is for the Student Microphone (AVxHM)

Figure 8

AVxLM (Teacher lanyard microphone)

1. Press the POWER button on the AVMW receiver module for

Channel 1. Power On = Blue LED flashing (See Figure 8)

Figure 9

2. Press the ON/OFF button on the transmitter for the teacher

microphone (AVxLM). ON = Blue LED flashing or Blue LED

steady.

Figure 10

NOTE: If the LED’s on both units continue flashing, then

proceed to Step 3. If the LED’s are solid (ON, but not

flashing) then the units linked themselves and are

ready to broadcast. Go to Step 5.

3. Press the "pairing" button for 2-3 seconds separately on

both the AVMW and on the right side of the AVxLM

transmitter until the LED flashed alternating red/blue

indicating units are ready to be paired. Pairing Ready =

alternating red/blue steady flash (See Figure 10)

Figure 11

NOTE: Steady flash indicates that the units are looking for an

ID match.

4. Locate the IR lens on the left side of the transmitter unit

(opposite side from the pairing button). While both units are

in the pairing-ready mode: point the transmitter IR lens at

the AVMW module from a maximum distance of 1 meter/3

feet for at least 3-4 seconds. The alternating blue/red flash

sequence will commence a fast flashing sequence for 2-3

seconds resulting in a solid blue LED condition indicating

that the link is made and broadcasting can begin. Paired =

Blue LED solid.

5. Once units are linked and broadcasting, it is time to set

microphone volume, bass and treble on the AVMV

preamplifier module to desired levels. Level adjustments

are made using the convenient knobs. Additional audio gain

adjustment can be made on the AVMA module volume

controls.

AVxHM (Student hand-held microphone)

1. Press the POWER button on the AVMW receiver module for

Channel 2. Power ON = Blue LED flashing.

NOTE: ONLY the AVxHM microphone can operate on Channel

Figure 12

2. Press the ON/OFF slide switch of the AVxHM microphone

to ON. ON = Blue led flashing or Blue LED steady. (See

Figure 13)

NOTE: If the LED’s on both units continue flashing, then

proceed to Step 3. If the LED’s are solid (ON, but not

flashing) then the units linked themselves and are

ready to broadcast. Go to Step 4.

Figure 13

3. With the AVxHM ON/OFF slide switch in the ON position,

depress the pairing switch inside the hole at the bottom of

the slide switch for 2-3 seconds until the LED begins

flashing blue/red. While the LED is flashing, place the

AVxHM microphone within 1 meter/3 feet of the AVMW

module. IR lens which is also set in the pairing mode. In

less than 4-6 seconds, both units will start a fast flash mode

ending in a solid steady blue on both LEDs. The units are

successfully ’paired’ and broadcasting can begin. Paired =

Blue LED solid.

4. Locate the IR lens on the left side of the transmitter unit

(opposite side from the pairing button). While both units are

in the pairing-ready mode: point the transmitter IR lens at

the AVMW module from a maximum distance of 1 meter/3

feet for at least 3-4 seconds. The alternating blue/red flash

sequence will commence a fast flashing sequence for 2-3

seconds resulting in a solid blue LED condition indicating

that the link is made and broadcasting can begin. Paired =

Blue LED solid.

Troubleshooting

1. Read and review all sections and follow all instructions in

this manual.

2. If any of the AVMW microphones or receivers experience

intermittent noise or drop out, please check to ensure

batteries are charged.

NOTE: The microphones are designed for a fast recharge as a

50% charge is achieved in as little as 30 minutes.

3. If any of the RF microphones or receivers do not show

connection or have continuous flashing Blue LED please

ensure units are properly 'paired'.

4. If after successful wireless install and both AVxLM Teacher

Microphones and AVxHM Student Hand held microphone

are confirmed to be performing properly (without noise, drop

out with acceptable coverage throughout the room) and

then after installing the AVxVR transmit module in the

RIGHT SLOT of AVMW with corresponding receiver/

headphones you now notice intermittent noise or drop out of

the microphones, perform the following steps to change the

ID frequency.

1. In the power off mode for AVMW module, press both

the power and pairing botton down for 3-5 seconds

until the LED starts a steady RED flash rate.

2. Press Pairing button ON.

3. After following this procedure all wireless

microphones should return to normal

operation.
