SET UP INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Place loudspeaker in the desired location. Ensure that it is secure and stable.
2.
Rotate the input attenuator knob counterclockwise to the lowest setting.
3.
Connect signal via the XLR input jack.
4.
Connect the amplifier module’s power supply cord using the blue PowerCON connectors.To insert, align the indexing tabs on the PowerCON
connector, insert it into the socket and rotate clockwise until the latch catches.
5.
Connect the electrical plug to a power source.
6.
Select the desired preset via the PGM SEL button.
7.
Rotate the input attenuator clockwise to achieve the desired sound level.
The SV8 compact full-range loudspeaker’s DSP is supplied with 4 presets. All four presets contain limiter settings to ensure safe operation of
the unit. The presets are accessed in sequence via the preset select button on the rear of the unitA green LED indicates the active preset. The level knob
provides a range of control from OFF to +12dB within each preset.
Preset Functions:
Preset 1: Standalone Full-Range Operation.45Hz high-pass filter with bass boost EQ and conservative limiting.Recommended for use when no sub is available.
Preset 2: Intermediate Stand-Alone setting,60Hz high-pass with slight bass boost and limiting.Recommended for use with a single sub or when subwoofers
are separated from SV8s.
Preset 3: Intermediate High-output setting. 85Hz high-pass with limiting and no LF EQ. Recommended for use when subwoofers are co-located with SV8s.
Preset 4: Maximum Output Setting, 100Hz highpass, minimal limiting and no LF EQ. Recommended for use when outdoors and/or when multiple or larger
subwoofers are present.
Presets 2, 3 and 4 allow the SV8s to be combined with various subwoofer configurations and allow the sound to be tailored to different environments. It is
recommended to listen to the presets and choose the one that works best in each environment.
System Setup Addendum:
When connecting multiple loudspeakers in a system, signal can be passed through from one powered loudspeaker to another using balanced, shielded XLR
cables. No processing is applied to the signal as it passes through from the input to the output connectors in each loudspeaker. Signal can be routed in any
sequence because each loudspeaker receives a full-range signal and applies the necessary processing in order to operate as part of the overall system. It is
recommended to run signal to the nearest box first and patch to the next nearest box in sequence.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If after following the above instructions for setup you have no output from the loudspeakers, please check the following:
Verify that the green power (PWR) LED is on. If not, check the following:
1. Is the power cord plugged into a live outlet?
2. Is the Neutrik PowerCON connector rotated into the locked position?
If the power LED is on, check the following:
Is the green “signal present” LED (SIG) illuminating? If not:
1. Is the signal cable connected to the input?
2. Is the signal cable connected to an operating output at the other end?
3. Is the signal flowing to the input? Check the integrity of the cable.
