Registering your ACTIVslate 

You only need to register the ACTIVslate in the following circumstances: 

 

Before you use the ACTIVslate for the first time 

 

If you change channels 

Your ACTIVslate works by sending radio signals to and receiving them from 
your ACTIV board or ACTIVhub. Therefore, it is essential that you must register 

the ACTIVslate with the ACTIV board or ACTIVhub in the room where it will be 
used. Prior to registering your ACTIVslate, the ACTIVhub must be switched on 
and attached to the computer. 

1.

 

Click on Register to open the Registration program. 

 

Note: You cannot register the ACTIVslate until the hardware and 

software combination is approved for use in your country. To do 

this, click on the drop down arrow and select the country in 
which you are using the ACTIVslate. If permitted, you can then 

continue with registering your ACTIVslate. If your hardware and 
software combination is not permitted, a warning will be 
displayed and you will be blocked from using the ACTIVslate. In 

this case, or if your country does not appear in the list, contact 
Technical Support for advice. 

2.

 

Select a Channel number, see note below, and ACTIVsystem ID for the 

ACTIVslate you are registering from the drop down boxes. 

Notes:Two ACTIV boards or ACTIVhubs are capable of sharing a single 

channel, thereby allowing up to four systems to operate in 
relatively close proximity. 

However, to avoid interference between each system, select 

different channels for two systems working in close proximity, 
such as in neighboring rooms. 

Systems that are more than 30 meters apart will not interfere 

with each other, therefore allowing channels to be reused. 

3.

 

To register an ACTIVslate, click on the Register Button in the 

Registration Program, and use the ACTIVpen to select the Register 
Button
 on the ACTIVslate. 

4.

 

The program will display a PIN number, which you must enter by 

pressing the ACTIVpen on the appropriate Mode Boxes on the 
ACTIVslate.
