dB TECHNOLOGIES DVX D15 HP - Manual (Page 6)

DVX D12 HP
The D12 HP bi-amped active speaker is equipped with a
® DIGIPRO G2 amplifier delivering 1400W .
The D12 HP is a bi-amped active speaker features 12” (voice
coil 3”) woofer and a 1.4” (voice coil 3”) compression driver
installed on a 60°x40° aluminium CD- horn.
The speaker’s horizontal directivity is 60° by default factory
setting.
The speaker is made of 15mm birch ply wood, the 3 handles,
the 6 flytracks, the 6 M10 threads and the 4 flypins located on
the sides and the back of the speaker are enabling easy
transport and installation.
The speaker has been designed to be used also as stage
monitor (45° angle). By rotating the horn you can maintain the
same coverage angle also when the speaker is used as
monitor.
In the bottom of the box there is a standard pole mount cup
(D36mm) made of aluminium.

COMMANDS AND FUNCTIONS (reference page29)
1) “BALANCED INPUT” CONNECTOR
These balanced inputs can be used to connect balanced or unbalanced microphones
or audio sources at line level (0dB) (eg. preamplifier, mixer, recorder, CD player,
musical instrument, ...).
2) “LINK” - “INPUT-LINK” CONNECTORS
The balanced connector is connected in
and can be used to send
the audio signal to other amplified speakers, recorders or supplementary amplifiers.
3) “LIMITER” INDICATOR LIGHT
This indicator shows red to indicate that the internal limiter circuit has tripped.
This prevents amplifier distortion and protects the speakers against overloads.
4) “SIGNAL” INDICATOR LIGHT
This indicator shows green to indicate the presence of the audio signal (at a level of -
20dB).
parallel with input (1)
5) “READY” INDICATOR LIGHT
This indicator shows green to indicate that the main power voltage is correct.
The LED shows green normal operating conditions
6) “SENSITIVITY” INPUT SENSITIVITY CONTROL
This control adjusts the sensitivity of the signal amplifier input.
This control does not affect the “LINK” - “INPUT - LINK” output level.
7) “MODE” SWITCH
This two-way switch allows to choose between two different system presets.
The “FULL RANGE” position allows linear response of the speaker, which is mainly
suitable for the “live” application.
8) “INPUT SENS” SWITCH
Position the switch in LINE to use a line level source (0 dB) or MIC to use a
microphone.
9) FUSE CARRIER “FUSE”
Mains protection fuse housing. The fuse specifications are found in the data plate of
the apparatus. In case of failure to replace it with one of the same type and value
specified.
10) "MAINS INPUT" POWER SOCKET
To connecting the power cable provided.
The connector used for mains connection is a POWER CON® (blue) socket
11) “MAINS LINK” OUTPUT POWER SOCKET
To linking the mains power. The output is connected in parallel with input (10) and
can be used to power another active speaker.
The connector is a POWER CON® (grey) socket.
The “STAGE MONITOR” position makes its use easier in the monitor application by
limiting the low frequencies, which are emphasized by the floor.
CONNECTIONS
Connecting to the mains supply
Each active speaker features its own power cable. Connection is done by a Neutrik
POWER CON® (blue) model which permits easy and fast connection to the speaker as
well as being an excellent locking system.
The same connector serves as a switch to turn ON and OFF the active loudspeaker by
turning the connector to the left (OFF) or right (ON).
The active speaker must be connected to a power supply able to deliver the maximum
required power.
Main power supply linking
On the rear of the speaker, a Neutrik POWER CON® connector (grey) offers linking the
mains power supply.
This socket links the power supply to another speaker, thereby reducing the direct
connections to the mains. Maximum amplifier input power is shown on the amplifier panel.
The maximum number of speakers connected together varies of max input power and of
the maximum allowed current of the first power socket.
