PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
These wireless receivers can be used in con­junction with any active speaker. The receiver can be attached to the speaker by screwing it into the stand’s screw socket.
1. 4 Digit Display (WM400D-L and WM400D-R only) This display will allow users to see the
properties that are currently in use by the WM400D, whether you are adjusting the receiver channel (indicated by CH), the EQ settings (indicated by EQ), the delay time (indicated by only the delay time in milliseconds) or the high and
low pass lters (indicated by a H or L,
respectively). When this unit is powered, the 4 digit display will light up.
2. AF Indicators When this LED is illuminated, it indicates
that there is an audio signal being
received by the WM400(D) receiver.
3. RF Indicators When the RF indicator illuminates, it
shows that the transmitter’s signal is being received successfully. If for some reason this LED does not turn on, check your DC power input and pre-set chan-
nel conguration and try again.
4. Bypass Indicator (WM400D-L and WM400D-R only) This LED will light up when the digital
processing feature of the WM400(D) re­ceiver is off.
5. Power Button hold this button down for 2 seconds to
power up the unit.
6. Bypass Button (WM400D-L and WM400D-R only) Push this button to turn the digital processing feature on and off.

7. Up and Down Buttons (WM400D-L and WM400D-R only) These buttons are used to adjust the
properties of various features built-into the WM400D’s. Pushing up or down will initially simply allow users to adjust the channel that the transmitter is using. If you push both of these buttons at the same time, it will jump to the next setting that can be edited. You can then adjust the properties by pushing the up and down buttons. These settings will come in the following order:
Channel Settings: CH 0 – CH 9,
CH A – CH F
Delay Settings: 0.0 – 300.0 milliseconds EQ Mode: P1 – P30 (see the EQ table
for a full rundown on EQ presets) Low Cut Filter: L 20 (Hz) – L 12 (kHz) High Cut Filter: H 20 (kHz) – H 60 (Hz) The high and low cut lters are adjusted in 1 Hz
increments; 10 Hz increments when over 1 kHz.
8. Channel Selector (WM400-L and WM400-R only)
Adjusting this dial to one of the preset
channels allows the WM400 to know
which pre-set frequency to look for
the wireless information. The wireless
transmitter should be set to the identical
channel if transmission is to occur suc-
cessfully.
9. On Indicator
(WM400-L and WM400-R only) This LED indicator illuminates when the
WM400(D) receiver is powered.
10. Antenna This is the WM400(D)’s antenna. Adjust
it so it sits in a vertical position when the
device is in use (change the position if
the wireless signal quality is poor). Push
the antenna in to release it before ad-
justing its position.

DC In and clip
Plug DC end of the supplied DC power
adaptor (12V, 200mA) into this jack, and the other end into a suitable AC power source to allow the WM400(D) to be powered. The accompanying clip en­sures the DC head of the power supply is kept securely in place.
12. XLR Output This jack accepts XLR connectors to
feed the signal from the Wireless Re­ceiver to the Speaker.
13. Fixing Use this hole to secure the WM400(D)
receiver into the mounting socket of your speaker by use of the accompanying M6, M8 or M10 screws and a washer.

WM400(D) POWER MODES
Since some users will mount their WM400(D) with a speaker in a high position, Phonic thought it would be handy to make it so us­ers could keep the power on constantly, as long as power is supplied to the unit and thus avoiding having to climb up high to push the power button. To make this adjustment, users are advised to follow the follow procedure:
1. Remove the two screws on the rear of the
WM400(D) receiver and the antenna.
2. Remove the screw on the bottom of the
WM400(D) beside the XLR output (the screw closer to the rear panel)
3. Remove the rear section of the casing by gripping the WM400(D) on both sides, squeezing and lifting up, in the process detaching the small clips within the cas­ing.
4. A small switch should be visible on the PCB. Flick it to the left to ensure the power of the WM400(D) does not turn off without you pushing the power button.
5. Be sure to replace the casing and screws before using the WM400(D) receiver.
Unscrew the antenna
Unscrew the two screws located on the rear panel
Unscrew the screw on just below the XLR jack
Move the switch to t he l eft to ensure the power i s always on. T o the right, the power button will need to be pushed and held down to turn the unit on.

High Cut Filter
The high cut lter allows users to remove
unwanted high-frequency sounds, which can help to remove high frequency hiss and feed­back, as well as make the audio signal more suitable for use with subwoofer speakers. The high cut lter’s cut off frequency is ad­justed in 1 Hz increments (10 Hz increments over 1kHz) between 20 kHz and 60 Hz. The default setting is 20 kHz.
Channel Mode
The channel number of the WM400D will be displayed in the 4 digit display, unless ad­justments are being made to other feature’s properties. The channel number set should match that of the WM60 or WM70 transmit­ter to allow the wireless system to work suc­cessfully.
Delay Mode
Changing the delay allows audio engineers to compensate for the distance between speak­ers on stage and audience members at the rear of the venue. Using the delay effect on a speaker at the rear will ensure the audio from the stage reaches audience members at the rear at approximately the same time as the audio from the rear-speaker. The delay time is adjusted in 0.1 millisecond increments, be­tween 0 and 300 milliseconds (holding the up or down button down speeds up the adjust­ment time)
EQ Mode
The different EQ modes allow users to adjust various frequencies of audio to enhance cer­tain instruments, remove sibilance, feedback and other undesirable noises, and improve
the overall delity of sounds. There are 30
presets to choose from (check EQ Preset page for more information), the titles of which describe what the effect does to your audio.
The default setting, P0, is completely at.
Low Cut Filter
A low cut lter allows users to cut low fre­quency sounds, ensuring stage rumble and other unwanted low-frequency sounds are removed from your audio. This can also help adjust the frequency to be more suitable for
use with tweeters. The low cut lter’s cut off
frequency is adjusted in 1 Hz increments (10 Hz increments over 1kHz) between 10 Hz and 12 kHz. The default setting is 40 Hz.
