5. QUICK START
1. Location:
Choose a site from where the audience area can be covered in which there are very few
obstacles between audience and speaker. The higher the speaker is placed, the greater and better
the audience coverage will be.
Since this is a self-amplifying box, it requires direct connection to a power socket. This
must be taken into consideration.
2. Connecting to the mains:
Read the WARNINGS paragraph in section 2.
Check that the red switch is at “0”.
Insert the network cable connector into the MAINS input and connect the pin to the other
end of a network connection with an earth clamp.
3. Audio connections:
The VERSO 8P, 10P and 12P enable direct connection of two simultaneous sound
sources through the respective balanced XLR3-type plugs. Each plug can be configured to receive
LINE level signals (high level: MP3, CD, DVD players, keyboard, etc.) or dynamic microphones (low
level). A MICRO/LINE button next to each input connector allows you to select the type of signal it
will operate with: button pushed for LINE signals and not pushed for MICRO signals. Check that the
selected position is the correct one.
If connecting a self-amplifying box to a stereo mixing, select the LINE position and connect
each mixer output channel at each side of the unit inputs. In this case, reproduction will be mono, the
result of mixing the left and right channels delivered by the mixer.
If you want to connect the unit to other self-amplifying boxes or amplifiers, first check that
the levels of the initial box are correct and also check that it functions correctly when separated.
4. Start-up:
Check that both volume controls are at "MIN" and that the tone controls are in the central
position.
First of all turn on the signal generating source (MP3, CD, keyboard, DVD, etc.)
Then put the on switch at “I”. This should light up immediately, in addition to the blue "ON"
light, indicating that the amplifiers are correctly supplied with power.
As soon as the inputs receive the signal, even with the volume adjusted to minimum in the
unit, the green “SP” indicates should light up. Slowly turn the respective volume control until it
reaches the required volume, NOT the maximum.
If necessary, adjust the equalizer until you obtain the desired result. Then check the
available reserve power by increasing the volume slowly, in all cases trying to prevent the red “CLIP”
indicator from lighting up. If this should occur, reduce the level, as the internal amplifiers will
continuously be saturated and the sound reproduced will be distorted.
