Note:
The LEDs do not illuminate in Energy Efficient Mode.
NCS Power Modes
The charging station can be operated in different power modes other than standard charging mode:
Energy Efficient Mode
Operate the charger in a low-energy mode to reduce power consumption. In this mode, only one LED indicator illuminates per
channel after powering on.
To change to Energy Efficient Mode:
Open the MXW control software to the
Utility
page.
Open the Device Properties window for the charging station.
Select the
Energy Efficient Mode
check-box.
Select
Add updates
to exit the device properties.
Select
Apply All
from the Utility page to push to your devices.
High Efficiency Mode
Operate the charger in high-efficiency mode to greatly reduce power consumption. In this mode:
The Ethernet and charging LED indicators functions are disabled.
The Power LED illuminates green.
The Link LED illuminates blue, indicating High Efficiency Mode.
To change to High Efficiency Mode:
Within the first minute of powering up the charger, press and release the Link button three times in succession.
To return the charger to standard charging mode, power cycle the charger.
Notes:
Shure rechargeable batteries require approximately 4 hours to fully recharge in High Efficiency Mode.
Important:
Because the charging LED indicators are disabled in High Efficiency Mode, you must manage the 4-hour
recharge time using your own timer.
While in High Efficiency Mode, there is no Ethernet connectivity for the charger. There is no monitor and control functional
ity for SystemOn or any other connected solutions like Crestron/AMX.
When a Charger transitions to High Efficiency Mode, any microphones currently docked in the charger also transition to
High Efficiency Mode (identified by the removing the microphone from the charger and observing that the microphone is
powered off).
After a power cycle of a charger in High Efficiency Mode, the charger visually indicates standard charging and any micro
phones removed from the charger follow the configured
Initial State from Charger
preference in the APT configuration.
A microphone docked in a charger that is in High Efficiency Mode, which has not yet reached full charge, supports the
legacy battery cycle count reset mechanism (hold mute button for 10 seconds to trigger cycle count reset). The micro
phone does not support this mechanism if a full charge has been reached.
Note:
You should only use the battery cycle count reset after installing a new battery.
USB Charger
The USB Charger (SBC-USB) can connect to an MXW transmitter to provide power during operation.
