William Sound WaveCAST EIGHT Bedienungsanleitung
WaveCAST EIGHT
WF T8
QUICK START GUIDE
Wi-Fi Network Required
The WaveCAST EIGHT connects to the installation location's Wi-
Fi Network. It does not provide a network on its own. The Wi-Fi
network will need to be installed and established before the
WaveCAST EIGHT can be used.
Upgrades to your network equipment may be necessary
depending on the performance desired from the WaveCAST
EIGHT. For instance, a higher-end, more powerful router will allow
more users to connect to your audio stream than using a less
powerful router.
The WaveCAST EIGHT system will put a demand on the network.
If the network cannot handle the demand, the WaveCAST EIGHT
will be unable to reach it's maximum audience.
Installation Procedures
Note that these instructions only apply to the WaveCAST EIGHT
and do not apply to other WaveCAST systems, including the
WaveCAST EIGHT D with Dante features.

system or mixer from which it will receive audio. We do not

audio.
6. Push the power button to turn the unit on.

EIGHT. In the address bar of the browser, type in the IP
address that is shown on the front of the transmitter's main

it is not necessary to type “http://” or “www.” preceding the
IP address, just the characters following “IP:”, including the

9. The browser will open the transmitter's web page, displaying
a Login button. Click the log-in button and enter the user
name “admin” and the default password “admin”.
10. The web browser will now show the transmitter's Main

WaveCAST App
The WaveCAST app allows listeners to hear the audio on their
personal, Wi-Fi connected devices, such as a mobile phone. The
WaveCAST App can be downloaded from the Google Play for
Android devices or the Apple App Store for IOS devices.
Make sure all devices are always using the latest version of the
app. Older versions of the app may not work.
Connect to Wi-Fi Network
The personal device will need to be connected to the same Wi-Fi
network as the WaveCAST EIGHT. Instructions for connecting
each device to the Wi-Fi network will dier; check the device
manufacturer's instructions for how to set up a connection.
Connecting the App to the Channel
When the app is opened for the first time, a list of channels will be
available. Tap on the channel to hear it's audio.
The channel you are currently connected to will have a blue
checkmark next to it.
If a list of channels does not appear, check that the personal
device has Wi-Fi enabled. If it does, troubleshoot the network
connection of the WaveCAST EIGHT itself.
Listening via the App
Once connected to the channel, the audio should start playing
automatically. The volume of the audio can be adjusted using the
slider in the middle of the screen, or the physical buttons on your
device.
To mute the audio, tap the speaker icon. Tap it again to
