4. BRC Battery installation
The BRC is powered by two “Mignon“ AA batteries. A fresth set of batteries can
achieve several weeks of normal usage (base settings) thanks to the integrated
energy saving functions of the WAP-4500 BRC.
We do recommend to utilize common Alkaline Batteries.
●
●
The Battery compartment is placed at the back of the BRC cabinet.
The battery cover slider can be unlocked by slight pushing the cover at the
dotted area and shifting down for apprx. 5mm. After unlocking, the cover
can easily be removed.
●
●
●
Please care to insert the batteries according to the markings in the battery
case and on the batteries itself. Wrong polarity might damage the BRC.
Then lay the battery cover back on the opening and slide-in until you
recognize it was locked again.
The BRC now is ready to use.
Note: It is possible to utilize rechargeable AA-type batteries (NiMH or NiCd).
However, rechargeable batteries have higher self-discharge and less cell tension,
causing shorter operation time. Therefore we do not recommend to use
rechargeable batteries.

5. Pairing the BRC and SMR
The data interchange between BRC and SMR of the WAP-4500 is realized by a
data radio transmission system. Benefits of the radio transmission are the definite
identification between the connected partners and the transmission by radio signals,
which do not require visible connection between transmitter and receiver. BRC and
SMR can both transmit and receive data. You may even control your WAP-4500
from a neighbour room, if you placed your speakers there.
After first power on, the BRC shows a “pairing” screen. This screen appears when
there is no known connection between BRC and SMR or in case you call it to add
another new connection (refer item 7.1 Multiroom operation).
Place your BRC close to your SMR (< 1m). Select “Pair” to start the pairing
procedure. BRC and SMR communicate to find a suitable connection. The
procedure takes apprx one minute. In case the BRC found more than one WAP
SMR base station, select your WAP-4500 SMR by the scrollbar and confirm your
selection by short pressing the right softbutton (4) or the OK button (7).
Now you will be back to the main menu which displays the name of the selected
SMR device at the head of the menu list.
Note: In case you have more than one WAP device in your environment, the
wireless radio system ensures only the one paired SMR is controlled by the paired
BRC at a time!

6.1 Audio Server operation
For browsing media server content and choose tracks to play.
Note: Make sure the media server on your networking PC is up and running and
your WAP-4500 is well connected to your network.
To browse and playback the audio files stored on your computer (connected to your
network), a media server software is required. With WAP-4500, the Media Server
software is provided on the installation CD.

WAP-4500 supports cover display for each audiofile with ID3 tag. To achieve cover
display, you can import a cover picture into each audio file, using your PC. This and
more ID3 tasks can be proceeded comfortably by a wellknown freeware software,
such as MP3tag (Win), ID3X (MAC) or EasyTAG (Linux).
Please note: there are some programs which support audiofiles and related cover
pictures, like WMP, iTunes or Amarok, but they have an incompatible solution based
on an internal directory where they store cover pictures separate from audiofiles, but
not in the audiofile's ID3 tags. These pictures do not appear if you open the audiofile
by other applications or WAP-4500.
If you want to have the cover pictures available for your WAP-4500 and also for your
portable audio devices forever, simply import the cover pictures into the ID3 tags.
6.2 Internet Radio
By WAP-4500, you can listen to Internet Radio stations without the help of a PC.
You can store your favorite stations for quick access and even „record“ the current
Internet Radio contents to a connected USB storage!
Note: Make sure your WAP-4500 is well connected to your network!

6.3 USB Audiomanager
USB disk content browsing and tracks playback.
The USB Audiomanager integrated in WAP-4500 offers comparable comfort to an
audioserver, for precisely sorted access to your USB audio data by the ID3 contents
stored in your audio files.
Note: USB input has disk insertion auto-detection. Please wait until you find the
USB icon in the BRC screen headline disk before using this function.
In case of missing ID3 entries in your audio files, the USB Audiomanager is using
the file names.
Scanning /
Parsing /
Categorizing
Tip: for the utmost comfortable use of your audio data through the USB
Audiomanager, we recommend to utilize an ID3 tagging software on your PC to
organize your data. With the ID3 tagger, you can easily – and often in one step even
for complete albums – add trackname, album, artist, genre and cover pictures etc.
for the usage of these informations by audioserver and USB Audiomanager.

7. Special functions
7.1 Multiroom-operation: select the SMR for control
The WAP system can operate with various SMR device controlled though one BRC!
By this multiroom feature, you only need to use one BRC – e.g. while you walk in
your house – to control a number of SMR devices in different rooms.
The menu for selecting the SMR for control you can reach by
the right soft key (4) in the main screen. This is the quick
way for multiroom selection. The actually selected SMR is
displayed on top position of the SMR device list.
Precondition for any change between SMR devices is their
existence in the SMR device list. When there are already
various SMR devices avaiable, scroll to the desired SMR
name and hit the OK (7) button to activate the connection.
The BRC then releases control of the current SMR device –
playback of the current device continues! – and changes
over to control the new selected SMR.
For the settings of the SMR device list you can find further
functions in the settings menu under the point Multiroom. There, you will find
functions for adding new SMR devices, to erase from the device list and to rename
the SMR devices upon demand. For more informations please read the section 8.1
Multiroom.
Note: in case the new selected SMR device you aim for control is out of reception
area of your BRC, there will be a warning screen.
In case you walk away from your currently connected SMR, leaving the reception
area of the connection between BRC and SMR, the above mentioned warning
screen appears, too.
This warning screen enables you to reconnect to current SMR (softkey 4), or to
select another SMR (softkey 2) for control.
If you just have one SMR in your setup, please move the BRC to another position
closer to your SMR device to recover the control connection.
The allowable distance between BRC and SMR dependas on your local conditions.
In typical home environment it is possible to reach 15 meters distance with some
walls between BRC and SMR. But this is not to be guaranteed due to very different
wall/ceiling materials. Outside the house, the operational distance can be multiplied.

7.2 Recording of Internet Radio contents
WAP-4500 can record the contents of the actual playing internet radio station and
store it as an audio file onto your USB storage device.
NOTE: for the recording function, an USB storage with free available memory
connected to WAP-4500 SMR is required! The USB storage must not be separated
from SMR during the recording session!
ATTENTION: please consider the recording requires – depending from datastream
quality – apprx. 0.5-3 MB memory per minute! It is recommended to provide plenty
of USB storage memory when starting a recording!
●
●
Start Internet Radio playback as explained above.
Press the OPTIONS button (3) and select “Record
to USB Storage“ from the options menu.
●
Press the OK button (7) to start the recording.
Recording is working! Playback of internet radio is
continued at the same time.
●
●
To stop the recording, call the OPTIONS menu and
select “Stop Recording“.and press OK.
The recording will be stored under an automatically
created track name, which contains the station
name, date and running number. The File can be
found in the root directory of your USB storage.
NOTE: in case of reception interruptions during a recording session, the actual file
will be closed and the recording is continued in another file once the received audio
stream continues. Since WAP-4500 can playback audio files in a row “gapless“
(without interruptions between tracks), the resulting tracks (files) can playback
smoothly in one turn, under the precondition there was no data loss during the
recording session.
The digital audio stream will be recorded to the USB storage exactly as it is received
from internet radio station. Therefore, the provided audio quality is not changed
during the recording session.
In internet radio data stream there is no standard marking for tracks separation.
Therefore, the data stream is recorded without blanks in a single file (comparable to
a classic tape recording of radio broadcast). For long recordings. it can be useful to
note down the radio station informations, in case they are provided.
If you require renaming, cutting and transcoding of a recording, this can easily be
done with your USB storage connected to a PC. There are numerous audio editing
programs available from commercial and from free sources.
A famous example of a free Audio Editor is “Audacity“.
