Associating Components to a Group
The following instructions are for forming an MXW Group. If a device is not available from drop-down window, make sure it is "open" and on the network.
Tip: Use the
button to identify a device. This sends a signal to the device to flash its LEDs for easy identification.

1. Open a Configuration
Use the Shure Web Discovery application to view all MXW Access Point
Transceivers (APTs) on the network. Double-click on an APT to open the
software, and go to the Configuration tab.
2. Select an Access Point Transceiver (APT) for Group 1
Select an open APT from the drop-down display. This selection
determines whether the Group has four or eight channels (APT4 or
APT8).
Note: Group 1 must include the APT that was used to open the control software.
Other networked (and open) APTs are then available for additional groups.
3. Select the Network Charging Station(s)
Associate one or two Network Charging Station (NCS) to the access
point. There are two reasons for associating more than one charger:
- When using two four-channel chargers for an eight-channel access point.
- When using gooseneck microphones. Gooseneck mics cover the front and back
Channel Mapping for Devices in a Group
Audio is routed from the microphones to the analog outputs according to the Group setup in the Configuration tab. The following diagram displays channel
mapping for devices in eight- and four-channel Groups.
Networked Charging Station
An additional charging station is required when filling a Group with
gooseneck microphones

slots of a charger, halving the number of slots available. For example, two eight-
channel chargers are required to fill an eight-channel access point with gooseneck
microphones.
4. Select the Audio Output Device(s)
Select one or two audio output devices (MXWANI or SCM820) to
automatically route the digital audio channels from the access point.
Select from the following devices:
- Audio Network Interface (MXWANI) four- or eight-channel variation. Two four-
channel units or one eight-channel unit can be assigned to an eight-channel APT.
- Shure SCM820 IntelliMix
the audio output for the Group. This automatically routes the SCM820's aux input
to the microphones for personal monitoring (SCM820 aux left channel to MXW
channels 1 - 4; aux right channel to MXW channels 5 - 8).
Note: Device associations and microphone Link data are persistently stored
in the device. If the MXW system is shut off and then restarted without a
computer, the devices will remain associated to the access point.
