You can access the Webconf tool from any computer using a web browser. Your Zynthian Box must be connected to your local network, or directly to your computer with an Ethernet cable (link local, point to point).

This page lets you configure your sound cards and audio adapters.
Audio is probably the setting that most affects the behaviour. Get it wrong and the GUI probably won’t start (You'll see an error display). Luckily the webconf allows you to set the device up in spite of a non start of the GUI and the generic USB will generally work. If it doesn’t you will need to play around with the USB alsa settings. Understanding of the jackd start up settings is probably what’s required. It’s normally the hw: setting.
The audio settings for USB are really just passed to jackd (the audio server) and if they don’t match then jackd won’t start hence no audio. The GUI logging in the webconf will tell you if this is happening. A very good starting point if it’s not working is by logging onto the Zynthian with SSH and giving the command: 'aplay -L'
This will tell you about ALSA settings (the audio hardware handler) and these settings will contain details that will be useful configuring the Jack settings.

the hdmi display setting will deal with an hdmi monitor and the width & height settings will allow you to deal with any aspect ratio issues. The UI ffont settings might need altering to fit the screen

Configure wiring for the encoders/knobs and switches.
Configure the "wiring" for your encoders/knobs and switches. Select "dummies" if your zynthian has none.
You can also configure the V4's customizable switches (S1, S2, S3 & S4), the zynaptik's analog & digital inputs and 2 TOF distance sensors that can be assigned to MIDI actions. Take a look to [https://wiki.zynthian.org/index.php/Adding_Extra_I/O_with_the_Zynaptik_Module this section].

The MIDI filter allows to filter the MIDI messages using rules. You can use the visual rule builder, or type the rules directly.

====Ports====

This is an "advanced" option that allows to configure your hardware MIDI ports as INPUT/OUTPUT or for receiving MIDI feedback on controllers that support this feature (i.e. motorized faders).

====Keyboard Binding====

The keyboard Binding Page allows configuration of particular functions from a connected USB keyboard this can obviously be a
full ASCII keyboard or a small number pad or even 3 foot switches.

====Using MIDI controllers instead of Encoders====
Using midi driven encoders instead of encoders bult-in to the Zynthian is a little bit confusing, and that’s conceptual rather than technical. A MIDI controller is normally a pot or an encoder pretending to be a potentiometer. Its value varies from 0 to 127. The problem with that is the Zynthian encoders work as proper encoders using up and down signals. To produce something that could control a list properly when you move to a specific screen after you’ve come from another page is rather complicated because most pots will simply send the maximum value but not repeatedly send if further turns are made.
The next issue is handling the pushbutton functions of the encoder and bold presses and long presses.
You can send CUIA commands to drive the GUI and that would allow you to drive the whole device from push buttons but it might be a lot of switches.
And you really can do an awful lot with a mouse! Really easy if you get a wireless(not Bluetooth) one it’s really intuitive once you learn the trick to do the back button.

This page allows your to connect to WiFi networks, as well as manage stored connections.
To enable wifi access follow these steps:
1. In the Web config on the WIFI page you need to click '''Add Network'''
2. On the next screen choose your SSID from the dropdown menu and enter the passord.
3. Click the '''Add''' button
4. Enable wifi from the zynthian screen or in the Web Config set mode to '''On'''
