4 Learning Process
The wireless mimio module and receiver are programmed at the factory
and are packaged as a mated pair to work “out of the box” without user
intervention*. They are an exclusive pair of components that will only
communicate to one another. This allows for more than one wireless
mimio system to co-exist in the same environment without causing
confusion over which wireless module communicates to which wireless
receiver.
Since the wireless module and wireless receiver are designed to work
exclusively as a pair, you cannot casually interchange a wireless module
from one wireless system with a wireless receiver from another wireless
system and expect it to work; mixed components will not be able to
communicate unless they have been programmed as a pair. A wireless
module can
only be paired with one wireless receiver at any given
point in time; you
cannot program one wireless module to work with
multiple wireless receivers and vice versa.
Mating the wireless module and receiver:
If you own multiple wireless mimio systems and mistakenly get the
wireless module and receiver components mixed together, you can
manually re-program any pair of wireless module and receiver
components to work exclusively together through a learning process.
The learning process is described in the steps listed below.
*802.11x and/or Bluetooth is neither required nor supported.
Teach
button
Learn
button

1. Power on the mimio Xi capture bar (with wireless module).
2. Plug the wireless receiver into an available USB port on your PC.
3. Using a paper clip, press the teach button on the wireless
receiver
to initiate the learning process.
4. Press the recessed learn button on the wireless
module with the
tip of a pen or the end of a paper clip to complete the learning
process.
5. The Link Status LED will start flashing amber and green while
the learning process is underway. Once the wireless module and
receiver are mated, the Link Status LED will turn to a solid green
color to identify the 2 components have been paired and that a
wireless connection is established.

5 Troubleshooting
If the Link Status LED on the mimio wireless module is amber, a
wireless connection cannot be made between the mimio wireless
module and the wireless receiver. Please try the following steps to
establish a wireless connection:
1. Ensure the PC is powered and turned on.
2. Ensure the wireless module is plugged into an available USB port
on your PC.
3. Ensure the mimio Xi capture bar is powered on and has a green
power LED. If the power LED is amber, replace the four AA
batteries in the mimio Xi capture bar.
4. Move the mimio Xi with wireless module closer to the computer
with the wireless receiver connected to it.
If you still cannot establish a wireless connection after following the
four steps listed above, try unplugging the receiver USB cable from
the PC and then reinserting in the receiver USB cable into the PC. If
this does not help, then follow the steps outlined in the Learning
Process section to re-bind the wireless module and wireless receiver.
If completing the Learning Process does not result in a wireless
connection, please contact our Technical Support department using
one of the contact methods described in the Technical Support
section.
Note: Upon return from standby on some PC’s, the wireless link between the module and receiver cannot be
reestablished. In such cases, the receiver USB cable must be unplugged from the PC and reinserted to reestablish
the wireless connection.
