11.  (WaveCAST D only) Connect a CAT 5e Ethernet cable from 

the Dante network to the connector labelled Dante on the 

transmitter. Note: Dante IP Address and other settings are 

configured externally through Dante Controller; there are 

no settings in the transmitter for Dante, other than choosing 

Dante as the input source).

12. Once the transmitter detects an active network is present (either 

Ethernet or Dante), the WaveCAST’s Ethernet control IP address 

will be displayed in the Add-on module part of the home screen.

13. Open a web browser on a computer or mobile device 

that is also connected to the same local network as the 

WaveCAST. In the address bar of the browser, type in the IP 

address that is shown on the front of the transmitter's main 

info screen, and push the enter key on the keyboard. (Note: 

it is not necessary to type “http://” or “www.” preceding the 

IP address, just the characters following “IP:”, including the 

periods)

14. 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”.

15. The web browser will now show the transmitter's Home Page, 

which shows the current WaveCAST status info. The tabs at 

the top navigate to different pages that allow adjustment of 

the transmitter's settings.

16. Use a personal device with the WaveCAST App installed to 

listen to the audio and test that device is working and sounds 

correct.

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.

Connect to Wi-Fi Network

The personal device will need to be connected to the same 

Wi-Fi network as the WaveCAST. Instructions for connecting 

each device to the Wi-Fi network will differ; 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 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 

unmute the audio.

To switch channels, tap the icon on the bottom of the 

screen to display the list of channels again.
