The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product´s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk to persons. The exclamation mark within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance. CAUTION! HIGH VOLUME! You will operate this system for professional use. Therefore the commercial use of this equipment is liable to the rules and regulations of the Accident Prevention & Insurance Association of your industry sector. Adam Hall as a manufacturer is bound to inform you formally about the existence of eventual sanitary risks. These speakers are able to induce high acoustic sound pressure levels. 85 db is by law the maximum audio pressure level which your ear can be exposed to during a work day. It was set according to the technical exper- tise of the occupational medicine as a basis for the noise rating level. Higher sound levels or longer exposition times could damage your ear. The time of exposition by higher sound pressure levels should be shortened in order to prevent from ear damages. Here are a few reliable warning signals which show that you have exposed yourself for a too long period to excessive sound pressure levels: - You hear bell- or whistling sounds! - You have the impression that you can’t hear high tones anymore! CAUTION

IR PORT Receives the infrared frequencies sent by the recei- ver in order to synchronize transmitter and receiver.

WEARING THE BELTPACK TRANSMITTER

Clip the receiver to a belt. For ultimate results, clip the receiver onto a belt by pushing the receiver down onto the belt as far as it goes. For guitarists, attach the guitar strap ”through” the receiver clip.

CHANGING THE BATTERIES

Expected life for two alkaline batteries is approxima- tively 8 hours. When the battery status indicator flashes red the batteries should be changed immediately as show on the left side. Please Insert 2 AA Alkaline batteries (LR6 1,5 V)

IR WINDOW Sends infrared signals to the transmitter (handheld mic) in order to synchronize the frequencies

POWER Power switch and Volume controller

ASC After selecting a transmitting frequency in the receiver, press ASC to sync the transmitter. Hold the IR port of the microphone in front of the IR port of the receiver. (Sync with beltpack: Press ASC on the beltpack and on the receiver to activate sync.

MUTE LEVEL Adjusting the receiver squelch setting: This function suppresses noise when the trans- mitter is off or when the receiver is no longer able to receive a sufficiently strong signal from the transmitter. The squelch setting of the receiver is adjusted at the factory so that the system functions optimally. Normally, no further adjustment is required. If readjustment does become necessary, the squelch level should be set so that no noise is de

tected in the receiver when the transmitter is off. This makes it possible to suppress interference, but it may also reduce system range under some circumstances. If the squelch level is reduced, interference can increasingly affect transmission quality. However, this may increase system range under some circumstances.

Plug the 6.3 mm Jack connector of your microphone cable into the MIC Jack input. You will find this input on the back panel of your Roadboy. Make sure that the other end of your cable is correctly connected to the microphone. If your microphone features an ON / OFF switch, please set it to the ON position. Now use the MIC gain knob to set the balance between the MIC and LINE inputs. Too much MIC level can cause distortion (Overdrive).

USING WIRELESS MODULE

Start by setting the MASTER level knob of your Roadboy on the zero position. Then turn the POWER-VOL knob of the wireless module to twelve o’clock position. Now you can synchronize the transmitter (handheld mic or Belt Pack) with the integrated receiver thanks to the ASC function: Press the ASC button of the wireless receiver modu- le, the ASC LED now flashes red. If you are using a handheld transmitter: The Infrared sensor (IR) is placed in the battery compartment under the capsule. Hold it close to the IR sensor of the wireless receiver module. If you are using a Belt Pack transmitter: You need to activate the ASC function on the Belt Pack also. Then hold the Infrared sensor (IR on the rear side) of the belt pack transmitter close to the IR window of the wireless receiver module. The synchronization lasts a few seconds. If you have installed a second wireless module (opti- onal), make sure that you are not running both modules on the same frequency in order to avoid any interference (see frequency list). A flashing RF light shows that your system is functioning and that the synchronization was successful. You can now increase the MASTER volume of your Roadboy to the desired volume. Maximum distance between the wireless microphone (or Belt Pack transmitter) and the receiver module is around 60 m in an open space.

USING THE „EXT. SPEAKER“ OUTPUT

Use a speaker cable with 6.3 mm Jack connector to connect the external loudspeaker. Use a speaker with impe- dance between 4 and 8 Ohm with a minimal power output of 25 W. CHARGING ROADBOY Plug the power supply (16 V / 3 A) which is included with your Roadboy to operate your system without batteries or in order to charge the batteries. The charging time is 8 hours. The charging procedure stops automatically when the battery is fully charged. You can also keep the Roadboy connected to the AC current and operate it as long as you wish. IMPORTANT! When connecting the battery for the first time or when replacing the battery you MUST mind the polarity! Red = + (plus) // Black = - (minus). When the Roadboy is charged for the first time, charging time should be 15 hours. This increases both battery life and capacity. This procedure should be repeated every 2-3 months. Before this charging procedure the battery should be empty.BASIC SPECIFICATIONS Output power: MAX 25 W RMS / 4 Ω Frequency response: 80 Hz - 15 kHz Maximum sound pressure: 110 dB Speaker: 6.5 - inch full range Power: 200 V - 250 V Switching power supply DC 16 V / 3 A Batteries: 12 V / 2.9 AH THD: <0,5 % Size (W x H x D): 300 x 200 x 230 mm Weight: 5 kg Receiver module: 863 - 865 MHz Operating time: 5 hours CD PLAYER Product type: Compact disc digital audio system with mechanic & electronic anti-shock CD, CD-R, CD-R/W, MP3, WMA, USB, SD, MP3, WMA available.
