Connecting the antennas  
Always use all 3 antennas to ensure reliable wireless operation. The  
3 antennas are connected upon delivery.  
CAUTION  
Radio communication outside the legal requirements!  
When connecting antennas other than the supplied ones, the trans-  
mission power of the conference system may not meet the legal  
requirements and may cause interference to other radio equipment.  
̈ Only connect the supplied rod antennas to the antenna module.

Setting up and positioning the  
antenna module  
CAUTION  
Danger of injury and material damage!  
If improperly installed or insufficiently fixed, the  
antenna module can fall from the wall, ceiling or stand or  
tip over and can cause injury or material damage.  
̈ Protect the antenna module against tipping or drop-  
ping by means of a safety wire which is attached to  
a separate hook.  
̈ Always have the antenna module mounted by a qual-  
ified specialist according to local, national and inter-  
national regulations and standards.  
The antenna module can be:  
• mounted to a wall or ceiling by means of a ball joint (optional  
accessory),  
• mounted to a stand or  
• placed on a flat surface (e.g. table)  
Further information on mounting the antenna module can be  
found in the ADN system manual.

Setting up and positioning the antenna module  
CAUTION  
Danger of intermodulation!  
If you set up the antenna module and the wireless conference units too  
close to one another, intermodulation can occur.  
̈ Observe a minimum distance:  
– of 1 m between the antenna module and the wireless conference  
units and  
– of 0.5 m between the wireless conference units.

> 0.5 m  
Transmission range approx. 30 m  
The transmission range of the antenna module and the wireless con-  
ference units is approx. 30 m. The transmission range can vary  
depending on location and environmental conditions such as wall  
thickness, wall composition etc.  
In some countries/regions (e.g. Canada), the use of wireless  
components operating in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency band  
(channel 5 to 8) is restricted to indoor use.  
̈ Do not obstruct the antennas of the antenna module and the wire-  
less conference units with any object.  
̈ Set up the devices so that there is a “free line of sight” between the  
wireless conference units and the antenna module.  
̈ Place the antenna module as centrally as possible and above the  
wireless conference units.  
̈ Orient the 3 antennas of the antenna module so that they are par-  
allel to each other and are directed at a 90° angle towards the wire-  
less conference units.  
90°  
8 | ADN-W AM  
 
Setting up and positioning the antenna module  
Ceiling mounting is recommended for rooms with a ceiling height of up  
to approx. 10 m:  
̈ Mount the antenna module to the center of the ceiling.  
̈ Orient the antennas horizontally and at a 90° angle with respect to  
the wireless conference units.  
< 10 m  
Wall mounting is recommended for rooms with a ceiling height of more  
than 10 m because the wireless conference units have an omni-direc-  
tional radiation pattern (approx. 30 m):  
̈ Mount the antenna module to the wall at a height of max. 10 m  
from the floor.  
̈ Attach the antenna module upside down so that the antennas  
point downwards.  
̈ Slightly turn the antennas so that they are directed at a 90° angle  
towards the wireless conference units.  
> 10 m  
To minimize restrictions in the transmission range:  
̈ Avoid placing the antenna module outside the conference room,  
behind support columns or boardings or next to other radio  
equipment.

If the power supplied to the antenna module via the system  
cable is not sufficient (the antenna module does not switch on),  
you have to power the antenna module using the NT 12-50C  
power supply (see page 6).  
Optionally, you can also connect the antenna module to the  
PORT sockets of an ADN PS power supply. It does not matter if  
you are using a string or ring topology. The antenna module is  
connected just like a conference unit to the cable string or cable  
ring.

Configuring the wireless components  
Configuring the wireless components  
CAUTION  
Risk of violation of legal requirements!  
If you are using radio frequencies and transmission powers that cannot  
be used license-free in your country, there is a risk of violation of legal  
requirements.  
̈ Use only radio frequencies and transmission powers that are  
approved and legal in your country.  
̈ In the menu bar of the central unit‘s operating menu, click “Wireless  
Menu” > “Country” and select the correct country/region in which  
the conference system is to be used (see the ADN system manual).  
For wireless conferencing, you have to configure the wireless compo-  
nents in order to adapt the radio settings to the legal requirements of  
your country and to the requirements of your conference.  
For configuring the wireless components, you can either use the central  
unit’s operating menu or the “Conference Manager” software.  
However, the full functionality of a wireless conference system can  
only be configured using the software in “Live” operating mode.  
In some countries/regions (e.g. Canada), the use of wireless  
components operating in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency band  
(channel 5 to 8) is restricted to indoor use.  
Adjusting the radio settings  
1. Select the country/region in which the conference system is to be  
used (“Wireless Menu” > “Country”).  
The conference system only uses the radio settings that are  
approved and legal in the selected country/region.  
2. Select dynamic frequency management (“Wireless Menu” >  
Channel Selection” > “Automatic”).  
All radio settings are made automatically. The conference system  
automatically detects occupied frequencies and switches to an  
unused frequency band in case of interference.  
3. Select the access mode for the wireless conference units:  
Open access mode (“Wireless Menu” > “Access mode” >  
Open”)  
All ADN-W D1 wireless conference units that are ready for  
operation automatically connect to the antenna module and  
can be used instantly. This access mode should be used if only

Cleaning and maintaining the antenna module  
one wireless conference system is in use and if the default  
eavesdropping protection is sufficient.  
Closed access mode (“Wireless Menu” > “Access Mode” >  
Closed”)  
Only wireless conference units whose serial numbers are listed in  
a participant list can be used in the wireless conference. If several  
wireless conferences are held simultaneously, the closed access  
mode ensures that the wireless conference units connect to the  
correct conference system. This access mode increases the pro-  
tection against eavesdropping because only selected and  
enabled wireless conference units can be used.  
Further information on how to configure the wireless confer-  
ence components can be found in the ADN system manual.  
Cleaning and maintaining the  
antenna module  
̈ Only use a dry and soft cloth to clean the product.

Statements regarding the FCC and Industry Canada rules  
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules and RSS-210 of Industry  
Canada. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device  
may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any inter-  
ference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.  
The device for operation in the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor use to  
reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite  
systems.  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class  
B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed  
to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential  
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio  
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruc-  
tions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,  
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installa-  
tion. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television  
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the  
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the fol-  
lowing measures:  
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to  
which the receiver is connected.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.  
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Sennheiser electronic  
Corp. could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.  
This Class B digital apparatus complies with the Canadian ICES-003.
