USER GUIDE

DWD 401 Digi Wave Connect

Digi-Wave Connect is an analog audio cable converter box that sends audio to and from an existing Digi-Wave 400 system. By connecting your Digi-Wave Connect to your local audio system, you can transmit sound from your audio equipment to your Digi-Wave group, or output the audio from your Digi-Wave group to your local sound system.
The USB cable connects the audio in, audio out f rom the Digi-Wave DLT Transceiver and provides it to the Digi-Wave Connect.

Powering On and Charging

Connect the power cable to the power port on the Digi-Wave connect.
Once USB cable is connected to the DLT Transceiver from the Digi-Wave Connect, the LED on the top of the DLT transceiver will light up. The device will charge and stay charged while connected.

Connecting a DLT

A USB 3.1 type C cable is included with the DigiWave Connect and is used to connect a DLT transceiver to the Digi-Wave Connect.

NOTE: A Standard USB 2 type C will not work. Make sure you are using the cable included with the system or another USB 3.1 type C cable.
Insert one end of the USB 3.1 type C cable into the bottom of the Digi-Wave DLT transceiver, and insert the other end into the DLT port on the Digi-Wave Connect.
No special settings for the DLT transceiver are required for the Digi-Wave connect to work, although settings such as line in/out gain can be adjusted as desired.
The DLT transceiver will constantly transmit sound once connected to the Digi-Wave Connect, even without the use of the TALK button. To stop the transmission of audio, disconnect the DLT transceiver from the Digi-Wave Connect.

Connecting a DLR

A DLR receiver will not provide the same functionality as connecting a DLT transceiver. A DLR receiver does not have a talk feature and cannot transmit sound to the Digi-Wave group.
The DLR receiver can be used only for sending sound from a Digi-Wave group to a local sound system. If sound does not need to be sent to other Digi-Wave devices, this setup may be suitable.

Playing Audio

Once the audio device and a DLT transceiver is connected, to the Digi-Wave Connect, your audio from the DLT transceiver is ready to be transmit sound.

The hard-wired DLT transceiver will transmit the audio for that group or channel over the Audio Out of the Digi-Wave Connect. It will also broadcast any audio from the Audio In source over the Digi-Wave channel or group.
