To ensure that the synchronisation commands actually reach the Amigo ear-level receivers, it is important to position the unit optimally. The best location is close to the door or in the corridor just outside the classroom. Then you can be absolutely certain that all receivers will be continuously synchronised and on the right channel. NOTE It the wall outlet is located too far away from the Amigo eZync, the extension power cable can be used. The Amigo eZync will automatically synchronise all Amigo ear-level receivers within range and in all directions (360). Synchronisation can also take place through walls. NOTE 8 9 Mounting the Amigo eZync on a wall The optimal position for this unit is 1.5 metre above the floor, next to the entrance (see page 11). 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Use the wall mount as a guide to mark the location of the holes. Drill the two holes in the wall. If necessary, insert anchors inside the drilled holes. Insert fasteners through the washer and wall mount. Gently tighten the until the wall mount is secure. Avoiding bending the wall mount. If the Amigo eZync is to be used in a room, where only younger kids are entering, the Amigo eZync can be mounted lower than the recommended 1.5 meters. When installing the wall mount, note that the fasteners must not be over-tightened, as this bend it out of shape. NOTE CL s e h c n i 0 6
