The device has 10 Watt audio output and it still allows you to connect external loudspeakers and microphones. It can also act as a relay for activating door release switches or door locks via 1 embedded short-in detect port and 1 short-out control port.

Note: When connecting the W-PA to the local LAN, W-PA should pick up a local IP address (W-PA is set by Default to DHCP). If the device is returning an IP address of 192.168.1.128 after connected to the local LAN (you can check the assigned IP address by pressing and holding the + Volume button for 2 sec), the W-PA seems to be stuck on a Static IP address. If this happened, assign IP address of 192.168.101.130 on the local PC and browse to 192.168.1.128. If presented with Login screen, use the First time login credentials (admin/ admin) to login to the W-PA and change the Network Settings from Static (192.168.1.128) to DHCP, save the changes and reboot the device. After the reboot, the W-PA should return a local IP address, when checked. If when trying to browse to the W-PA, the WEB connection is refused (you never get to Login Screen), then create an RMA. |
