General Notes on Safety for Loudspeaker Systems

Mounting systems may only be used for those loudspeaker systems authorized by the manufacturer and only with the mounting accessories specified by the manufacturer in the installation instructions. Read and heed the manufacturer's installation instructions. The indicated load-bearing capacity cannot be guaranteed and the manufacturer will not be liable for damages in

the event of improper installation or the use of unauthorized mounting accessories.

The system's load-bearing capacity cannot be guaranteed and the manufacturer will not be liable for damages in the event that loudspeakers, mounting accessories, and connecting and attaching components are modified in any way.

Components affecting safety may only be repaired by the manufacturer or authorized agents, otherwise the operating permit will be voided.

Installation may be performed qualified personnel only, and only at pick-points with sufficient load-carrying capacity and in accordance with local building regulations. Use only the mounting are specified by the manufacturer in the installation options (screws, anchors, etc.). Take all the precautions necessary to ensure bolted connections and other threaded locking will not loosen.

Fixed and portable installations (in this case, speakers and using accessories) must be secured by two independent safeties. Ent them from falling. Safeties must be able to catch series or parts that are loose or may become loose. Ensureance with the given national regulations when using fixing, attaching, and rigging devices. Factor potential dynamic (jerk) into the equation when determining the proper size and spacing capacity of safeties.

Be sure to observe speaker stands' maximum load-bearing y. Note that for reasons of design and construction, most stands are approved to bear centric loads only; that is, the s' mass has to be precisely centered and balanced. Ensure stands are set up stably and securely. Take appropriate measures to secure speaker stands, for example when:

- the floor or ground surface does not provide a stable, secure base. - they are extended to heights that impede stability.

- high wind pressure may be expected.

- there is the risk that they may be knocked over by people. Special measures may become necessary as precautions against unsafe audience behavior. Do not set up speaker stands in evacuation routes and emergency exits. Ensure corridors are wide enough and put proper barriers and markings in place when setting speaker stands up in passageways. Mounting and dismounting are especially hazardous tasks. Use aids suitable for this purpose. Observe the given national regulations when doing so.

Wear proper protection (in particular, a helmet, gloves, and shoes) and use only suitable means of ascent (ladders, pls, etc.) during installation. Compliance with this requirement sole responsibility of the company performing the installation.

WARNING!

After installation, inspect the system comprised of the mounting fixtures and loudspeakers to ensure it is properly secured.

The operator of loudspeaker systems (fixed or portable) must regularly inspect or task a third party to regularly inspect all system components in accordance with the given country's regulations and have possible defects repaired immediately.

We also strongly recommend maintaining a logbook or the like to document all inspections.

When installing speakers for longer lasting or permanent outdoor operation, be sure to take into account the stability and load-bearing capacity of platforms and surfaces; loads and forces exerted by wind, snow, and ice; as well as thermal influences. Also be sure to provide sufficient safety margins for the rigging points used for flown systems. Observe the given national regulations when doing

- Ask the manufacturer if your product is allowed for outdoor usage!

Professional loudspeaker systems can produce harmful

volume levels. Even prolonged exposure to seemingly harmless levels (starting at about 95 dBA SPL) can cause permanent hearing damage! Therefore we recommend that everyone who is exposed to high volume levels produced by loudspeaker systems wears professional hearing protection (earplugs or earmuffs).

1 General Info

Contents

When you first unpack your LUCAS NANO 302, take a quick inventory to make sure the package comes complete with all the contents. LUCAS NANO 302 consists of a powered subwoofer and two satellites. A speaker pole adapter sleeve (M33 to M20), a protective cap for the speaker pole and a mains cable are also included, which you'll find in the box holding the power cord.

The System's Components

The Subwoofer

The subwoofer houses the 8" woofer, the system's active circuitry and the Class D power amplifiers. The speaker outputs for connecting satellites and the mains socket are located on the rear. That's where you'll also find the transport bay for the satellites and a recessed Auto Sleep button that activates an automatic power-saving function. The system's current operating modes are printed on the inside wall of the satellite bay.

L R Auto Sleep on off

On top of the housing, you'll find an Easy-Click guide rail with built-in signal-carrying terminals and an M33 pole mount that is also able to route the signal. The M33 is designed to take the S-CONNECT POLE LN speaker extension pole. The included adapter sleeve (M33 to M20) lets you attach standard M20 speaker poles, but they don't have a built-in signal bus.

The Satellites

Each satellite is loaded with one 3.5" broadband speaker custom-designed for HK Audio.

A 3/8" threaded insert on the bottom of the housing serves to mount the satellite on a standard microphone stand. The optionally available Pole Mount Adapter lets you mount the satellite on a standard 35 mm pole. On the bottom of the enclosure is an Easy-Click connector with a built-in signal bus. It lets you slot the satellites right into the subwoofer's Easy-Click locking mechanism. Two contacts establish an audio link with the subwoofer, so you don't need any speaker cords to route signals.

On top of the housing is another guide rail that takes two upside down satellites. It establishes audio and mechanical connections, and couples the speakers acoustically to achieve even more sound pressure and greater reach.

S-CONNECT POLE LN (optional)

3D rendering of a vertical mechanical component with a flanged top and black base (no text or symbols visible)

The S-CONNECT POLE LN A is a freely adjustable speaker extension pole with a built-in signal bus. It provides a very elegant way of mounting satellites on the subwoofer without having to use speaker cords. The S-CONNECT POLE LN screws into the S-CONNECT insert on the subwoofer, and the satellites snap right onto the pole's Easy-Click connector. This also links up with the built-in signal bus so you don't need an external cable.

Setting Up

Extracting the Satellites

The LUCAS NANO 302 satellites are locked in place in the bay on the rear of the subwoofer. Here's how to undo the transportation latches:

- Carefully set the subwoofer face down on the speaker front and turn the T-grips on both sides to unlock the spring-mounted locking pins. Remove the two satellites from the transport bay.

- Always make sure the locking pins are engaged to fix the two satellites in place when transporting your LUCAS NANO 302.

Wireless Convenience, the Easy-Click Way

The Easy-Click connector snaps in place to physically link the two satellites; what's more, it also establishes an electrical connection.

Easy Click is very easy to disconnect: Simply push the top satellite back and lift the enclosure to remove it.

2 Connectors and Control Features

1 Power

This button switches LUCAS NANO 302 on and off.

② Status Indicator

This dual-color LED indicates the following statuses:

• Green = power on
• Red = limit/mute or error

If it flashes briefly red from time to time, this tells you that the limiter is responding to signal peaks.

Heads up! If the Status LED stays red while LUCAS NANO 302 is up and running, the system is being overloaded. Turn down the signal level! If you are not feeding a signal in and the Status LED stays red, a malfunction has occurred.

Note: There are situations when LUCAS NANO 302 remains muted for about two seconds to give the amplifier unit time to ramp up and to prevent switching noise (the Status LED lights up red during this time). It does this:

• when you press the Power button to switch the system on
• when you press the Setup button

If the light remains on, a malfunction has occurred and you need to get in touch with our Technical Service team.

3 Gain/Volume

Use this rotary knob to adjust the given input's signal level. Twist it counterclockwise to the far left to turn the signal level all the way down and clockwise to the far right to turn it all the way up.

4 Stereo Input 1/2 (XLR/1/4")

These balanced combination input ports - XLR/1/4" (6.3 mm) jacks - serve to connect a line signal. Channel 1's signal is routed to the left; Channel 2's to the right.

5 Stereo Input 1/2 (mini jack)

Use this 3.5 mm mini jack to connect high-gain audio devices such as CD and MP3 players, DJ mixing consoles and computers.

Heads up: The input combination ports (4) are muted when you insert a plug into this mini jack.

6 Sub

Use this rotary knob to adjust the bass level within a range of - to +6 dB, with 0 dB being at the center or 12 o'clock position.

7 Balance

Use this rotary knob to adjust the left and right channels' relative levels. The Balance knob should normally remain at the center or 12 o'clock position for a single LUCAS NANO 302 for stereo (Stereo Satellite) or mono (Satellite Array) setups.

If you're using two LUCAS NANOs as a twin stereo system, set the left LUCAS NANO system's Balance knob to the far left and the right system's knob to the far right, or vice versa if you want to flip the sides (see also 8)

10 and chapter 3).

8 Setup

Stereo Satellite

Satellite Array

This switch configures the system for the target setup. LUCAS NANO 302 provides different signals tuned specifically for Stereo Satellite and Satellite Array setups (see also chapter 3, Setups and Accessories).

Stereo Satellite mode: The left channel of the stereo signal is sent to the Easy-Click connector, the S-CONNECT mount (both are on top of the subwoofer), and the left Speaker Out on the subwoofer's rear panel. The right channel of the stereo signal is always routed to the right Speaker Out port.

Satellite Array mode: This setting optimizes the EQ for the two interconnected satellites. The signal is routed via Easy-Click and S-CONNECT to the left Speaker Out. The right Speaker Out is disabled (the right speaker LED lights up orange).

9 Thru L/R

This is a parallel, balanced circuit that routes input signals from Input 1/2 (4) to another destination such as a monitor or serves as DI output. Signals are tapped just after the XLR/1/4" (6.3 mm) Combi ports and mini jacks; that is, before they are amplified. The Thru outputs are balanced.

10 Link In/Out

This 1/4" (6.3 mm) stereo jack serves to connect one LUCAS NANO 302 to another LUCAS NANO to confi gure a twin stereo system. It's imperative that you use a shielded cord equipped with stereo 1/4" (6.3 mm) jack plugs such as the optional LUCAS NANO LINK CABLE to do this. No other type of cable will do.

Heads up: Do not connect the two systems with the power on. Be sure both are switched off; otherwise, the volume level may spike when you plug in the Link cable.

13 Auto Sleep (switch in the transport bay)

LUCAS NANO 302 features an automatic power-saving mode that is activated and deactivated using the Auto Sleep switch in the satellite transport bay at the back of the enclosure. The system ships with the switch set to the 'On' position so that Auto Sleep is activated by default. If LUCAS NANO 302 does not get an input signal for around four and a half hours, the power amp will switch over to standby mode. To power the system up again, engage the Power On/Off switch or disconnect and reconnect mains power. Set Auto Sleep to the 'Off' position if you wish to disable this standby function.

14 Mains Socket

Use the factory-included mains cord to connect this socket to a wall outlet. The multi-range power supply lets you use your NANO 302 in countries with mains power ranging from 100 to 240 volts. Caution! Make sure your LUCAS NANO 302 is operated only within the specified voltage range. Connecting it to the wrong mains voltage may destroy its electronic components.
