Connections
Lan Port
This port allows you to plug the WFA400 directly into your network. Once the
WFA400 is connected it should automatically detect and setup all four zones.
The zones will be displayed in the device menu of the Hi-Fly app. Please
ensure that your phone or wireless device is connected to the same network.
Wi-Fi
If you choose to set up the WFA400 wirelessly, each zone will need to be setup
individually through the Hi-Fly app.
Open the app and follow the on-screen instructions for wireless setup of each
zone.
Line Out
Connect the analog line output to any line level input on your audio amplifier
or powered speakers. This line level output will be the most commonly used
audio connection and will work with most audio devices.
Digital Coax Out
The digital coax output can be used if your audio amplifier has a digital coax
input. Digital coax can handle two or more channels of audio through a single
cable. This cable shares the same RCA connectors as a line level cable, but
will only work when plugged into a digital coax input.
Digital Optical Out
The digital optical output connection will be available on most modern audio
amplifiers. This uses a toslink-type fiber optic cable instead of copper-
stranded RCA patch cables like line level or coax.
Line In
This allows an outside line level source (CD player, computer, TV etc.) to be
added to each zone as an additional source of music.
This input can be selected in the “Music” menu of the Hi-Fly app (See images
below).
USB (Media player)
Plug in a USB thumb drive for an additional source of music.
This input can be selected in the “My Music” menu of the Hi-Fly app (See
images below).
Selecting Line Input via Hi-Fly app:
First connect the external audio source to the line input of the zone you
choose for audio playback. Open the Hi-Fly app and find the Zone in the device
menu and select the Line In option from the music menu.
**Selecting USB input via Hi-Fly app:**
First connect the USB media device to the zone you choose for audio playback.
Open the Hi-Fly app and select “My Music” from the music menu, choose USB DISK
to select the songs from the USB media device.
