ZaxNet Quick Start Guide

TRX transmitter control

1. From Nomad:
a. From the main menu, select ZaxNet setup.
b. Scroll down and select input configure. To be able to use ZaxNet, make sure that input type is set to 8
or higher.
c. Power cycle Nomad.
d. Return to the ZaxNet setup menu.
e. Make sure IFB Mode is set to TX or TX+RX.
f. Select a ZaxNet transmit (TX) frequency.
Tip: There are several smart phone apps, which will show what Wi-Fi frequencies are being used in the
area. This can be useful in selecting an open frequency.
g. Scroll down to Group Code and pick a number. Unless using multiple Zaxcom IFB transmitters, it is
advised to set this to 1.
h. Set transport CMDS to slaved.
2. Turn on the TRX transmitter while holding down the MENU key to access the extended menu.
a. Press the MENU key to advance to the IFB receive frequency page. Make sure that the 2.4 GHz
frequency on the TRX transmitter is the same frequency that was selected in Nomad's ZaxNet setup
menu.
b. Press the MENU key to advance to the TC Jam Mode. Make sure that it's set to Auto-Load.
c. Press the MENU key to advance to the TC Source. Set this to IFB (RF) so that the TRX is receiving TC
wirelessly from Nomad.
d. Press the MENU key to advance to the Group ID. Make sure that the group ID number on the TRX
transmitter matches the number that was chosen in the ZaxNet setup menu.
e. Press the MENU key to advance to the remote control unit ID. This number will correspond to the
ZaxNet input on Nomad. For example, 001 on the unit code will correspond to input 1 on the Nomad,
002 will correspond to input 2 on the Nomad, etc.
f. Press the MENU key to advance to "Allow IFB Remote Control". This should be set to ON.
g. Power cycle the transmitter to save the settings.
3. To optionally assign a Nomad fader to control the transmitter gain:
a. Go to the main menu and select fader assign.
b. When in the matrix press the Star key. Then select the appropriate cross point and press the MENU
knob until a Z is displayed. The Z cross point tells the fader to control the transmitter's gain via ZaxNet.
The transmitter should now be receiving time code from the Nomad, go into record mode when Nomad goes into
record, and the gain and frequency of the transmitter can be remotely controlled via Nomad.
