Operation
1. Make sure the WHC-REC and WHC-IP are
both powered on. The status light on both
devices will ash.
2. The WHC-REC and WHC-IP will pair in a
range of up to 30 Feet in line of sight.
3. To pair the WHC-IP with the WHC-REC
press and hold button 2 (O)
4. When paired the WHC-REC status light will
show solid blue.
5. When paired the WHC-IP status light will
ash slowly.
The WHC-IP will perform the current functions
as default:
• Button 1: Short press: previous marker
• Button 1: Long Press: programmable
function
(See Device Conguration/General tab of WHC-
REC in WP-IP software application for options).
• Button 2: Short Press: next marker
• Button 2: Long press: enter pairing mode
To put the WHC-IP into sleep mode press and
hold the button on the top of the device for 2
seconds.
Notes:
The WHC-REC can only be paired and active
with one WHC-IP at any one time.
Where more than one WHC-IP are available
putting the connected WHC-IP into sleep mode
will then enable a di󰀨erent WHC-IP to pair with
the WHC-REC.
Similarly, when more than one WHC-REC are
used, if a connection is lost to one WHC-IP
and a second WHC-REC is in range it will
automatically pair with the available WHC-IP (if
it has been previously paired with that WHC-REC)
Sensitivity and dead band range can be
adjusted. (See Device Conguration/Speed
Prole tab of WHC-REC in WP-IP software
application for options).

Troubleshooting
Fault Check
WHC-REC
The WHC-REC is not
powering up
Check that the power over Ethernet source has a suitable power
injector
Check that the cable from the PoE source is rmly locked into the PoE
input on the WHC-REC
Check that a quality Cat5 or Cat6 cable has been used to connect to
the PoE injector
The WHC-REC is
powered up, but not
controlling the prompted
text
Check that any connections to the WHC-REC are correct and secured
Conrm that the WHC-REC is enabled in the Devices window

The WHC-REC is not
discovered on a local IP
network
Check that the WHC-REC and the software application are not
separated by an IP gateway
Check that the device is not already connected to another di󰀨erent network
If added to the system manually check the correct details are entered
in the Manually Add Device elds
The WHC-REC IP address
is not congured
correctly in the application
Check that the correct IP address has been added for the WHC-REC
(i.e. has this IP address been used for a di󰀨erent device)
