For specialized applications, such as multiple room installation, separate Configurations can be created to independently con
trol component Groups.
Configuration Master
When using a Configuration to manage multiple groups, the system dynamically assigns a particular Access Point as the “Con
figuration Master". All Access Points in that Configuration use the Configuration Master Access Point as an entry point to the
same control interface. This enables the coordination of preferences and the synchronization of system operations across mul
tiple devices.
When the Configuration Master Access Point is unplugged (or PoE is powered off), a new master is quickly re-established to
maintain control of the Configuration. If the Configuration Master is manually removed by deselecting the Access Point from the
Group on the Configuration tab, there will be a pop-up warning "Are You Sure?". If Yes is selected, the browser will close and a
new Configuration Master is automatically selected. Use the Shure Discovery Application to re-open the control interface from
any remaining MXW Access Point.
Creating Separate Configurations
For installations that spread across multiple rooms, a different set of preferences and global controls may be required for a giv
en space. Do this by setting up a separate Configuration:
Open the Shure Web Device Discovery Application.
Select the Access Point that will be used for the new Configuration and open its control software. The APT must be
open (not already assigned to a group) in order to start a new configuration.
Go to the Configuration tab.
Select that Access Point from the drop down list in Row 1. Use the ID button to ensure the correct Access Point is se
lected.
Select the charging station(s) and output device(s) to complete the Group.
Repeat 4-5 for up to 10 Groups in the Configuration.
Enable the Lock Configuration to improve network performance.
Customize the Configuration as desired from the Preferences tab.
Note:
Ensure that all APTs are connected to the same network and set to the same subnet, even if they are assigned to a separate Configuration. This en
sures the best system performance, highest channel count, and tightest digital audio clocking for the installation.
Locking the Configuration
Use the Lock Configuration feature to improve network performance and system stability. It is best practice to lock a configura
tion after setup to greatly reduce network traffic from MXW equipment. When systems exceed 15 APTs on the same network,
configuration locking is required for stable performance.
When locked, groups in that configuration are not editable.
