USER MANUAL Elite EF15P YORKVILLE

SERVICE MANUAL EF15P SMT Disclaimer Due to the complex nature of the use of SMT installed components in Yorkville equipment, we highly caution all service technicians in attempting to repair or replace SMT factory installed components. Many of these components may be glued prior to initial soldering. Replacing SMT components requires expensive specialized de-soldering equipment and training. Yorkville Sound will repair and replace defective SMT components to ensure proper quality assurance and installation is maintained. U.S.A.

To get the full Owner’s Manual please visit our website at http://www.yorkville.com/manuals/ or, if you need a printed version call 905-837-8777 The élite EF-Series powered cabinets include a built in mixer allowing microphones and/or line sources to be used directly. The Link connectors allow up to 16 EF-Series powered cabinets to be driven from a single source (a maximum of 3 mixers can be used simultaneously when Linking). To add a subwoofer to the system a 100 Hz high pass lter can be activated. Power Switch & Mode LED The switch turns the power On or O󰀨 and the illumination of the Mode LED indicates that unit is on. Limit LED The amber Limit LED indicates that the cabinet is operating at full power and the limiter(s) are actively reducing the signal level. Clip LED The red Clip LED indicates that the signal level is excessive and is causing distortion. To reduce clipping, turn down the mixer levels. Main In/ Thru (Link) Connectors The Main In / Thru (Link) connectors allow powered cabinets to be driven from a single source. You can Link up to 16 EF-Series powered cabinets! The Main In / Thru (Link) jacks are the correct input to use when using an external mixer. Note: When operating from weaker signals, use the Line inputs of the rst cabinet in the chain. To ensure maximum hum rejection, the proper balanced cables must be used. Mixer On/Off This switch turns the internal mixer ‘on’ or ‘o󰀨.’ When the Mic or Line inputs are used, this switch must be set to the ‘on’ position. If these inputs are not being used, the mixer should be turned ‘o󰀨.’ Line Inputs The Line inputs allow line level sources such as digital media players (lap tops, tablets or smart phones) and CD players to be connected. Note: If a microphone is connected to Channel 1 it will have lower gain compared to Channel 2’s Mic input (Phantom power is NOT available on Channel 1). Line Control The Line control adjusts the input volume level of devices plugged into the Line input. Mic Inputs Any standard microphone may be connected to the Mic input. Phantom power is built-in. Mic Control The Mic control adjusts the volume level for the Mic input. Master Control This control adjusts the level of the individual cabinet. When Linking multiple cabinets use this control to individually adjust the relative volumes of each cabinet. Note: The Master control is designed to be used in the 12 o’clock (middle) position, only minor adjustments are recommended. Mode Selector The Mode Selector applies specic EQ and tone settings for the EF-Series powered cabinet. Club: Boosted bass and enhanced highs make this mode ideal for music playback. Concert: Allows instruments and vocals to be equally and naturally reproduced which is best for live performance. Vocal: Shaped response specically for the human voice range ensures vocal intelligibility. User: Flat by default, can be customized by a user through the Yorkville app with a maximum of ve di󰀨erent parametric equalization points with adjustable boost, cut and Q. Sub Switch For operation with a subwoofer, this switch shuts o󰀨 the low frequency boost and lters out signals below 100 Hz. This only a󰀨ects the signals to the internal amplier and does not a󰀨ect signals going out from the internal mixer, or to signals passing through the Link connections. Bluetooth™ Control This control enables or disables the Bluetooth™ connection between a tablet or a smartphone using the Yorkville App. Pressing this control button for more than 4 seconds resets the EF-Series powered cabinet to factory settings. Faults and Internal Fuse A blown fuse generally means that excessive mains voltage has been applied or there’s a serious fault with the unit. Self re-setting thermal switches are built into the power transformer. These will not trip even under the most extreme operating conditions and are provided only for safety reasons.

Many of the popular models in the Yorkville speaker cabinet line are now equipped with flying hardware for overhead suspension applications. Depending on the model, two or more internal braces have been provided for rigging purposes. Each brace contains two bolt holes and provides center-of-gravity fly-points for use with in-line or angular loads. Many of the models will support additional suspended cabinets according to their specified working load limits. IMPORTANT!! THE RIGGING OF LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEMS IS AN EXTREMELY SERIOUS MATTER. OVERHEAD RIGGING REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, INCLUDING (BUT NOT LIMITED TO) CALCULATING WORKING LOAD LIMITS, HARDWARE INSTALLATION, AND PERIODIC SAFETY INSPECTION OF ALL HARDWARE AND CABINETRY. IF YOU LACK THESE QUALIFICATIONS, DO NOT ATTEMPT THE INSTALLATION YOURSELF, BUT INSTEAD USE A PROFESSIONAL STRUCTURAL RIGGER. IMPROPER INSTALLATION CAN RESULT IN BODILY INJURY OR DEATH. CONSULT A STRUCTURAL ENGINEER TO CALCULATE ADDED LOADS FOR A BUILDING. STRUCTURAL REINFORCEMENT MAY BE NECESSARY TO INSURE A SAFE INSTALLATION.

4.5mm (7/32”) Hex Wrench Thread lock adhesive (Removable Type)

3. EYEBOLT INSTALLATION

a) Using a 4.5mm (7/32”) hex wrench, remove the flat head bolts from the top or bottom of the speaker enclosure to expose the tapped holes (on TX models, the flat head bolts are located within the track rails), as shown below. Be sure to keep these handy as they will be needed to seal the cabinet after the eyebolts are removed. IMPORTANT!! USE ONLY LOAD RATED FORGED EYEBOLTS. THESE MAY BE PURCHASED THROUGH YORKVILLE SOUND OR ATM FLY-WARE™. TO INSURE CABINET-BRACING STRENGTH, MAKE SURE ALL FLY-POINTS ARE SECURED WITH EITHER AN EYEBOLT OR FLAT HEAD HEX BOLT. b) Place a drop of thread-lock adhesive on the threads of the eyebolt and insert one into exposed hole. Tighten each eyebolt by hand until its fits snugly against the cabinet. Further tighten each eyebolt by rotating it another half turn. Be sure to insert eyebolts in the threaded hole directly in-line with the suspension cable. Always follow the eyebolt manufacturers installation and use instructions. c) Suspend each cabinet according to working load calculations and practices recommended by the rigging hardware manufacturer. IMPORTANT!! ON MODELS WITH ONLY TWO TOP SUSPENSION POINTS THE SUPPLIED PULL BACK AT THE REAR OF THE BOTTOM CENTER PANEL OF THE CABINET IS NOT TO BE USED AS A SUSPENSION POINT. THIS POINT TO BE USED FOR PULL BACK PURPOSES ONLY. IMPORTANT!! READ ALL ENCLOSED INSTRUCTIONS ABOUT PROPER USE OF HARDWARE. TO INSURE PROPER INSTALLATION, FOR TECHNICAL INFORMATION ON SUSPENSION TECHNIQUES AND EXTERIOR ACCESSORY INFORMATION WE SUGGEST CALLING ATM FLY-WARES TECHNICAL SERVICES IN THE UNITED STATES AT [phone] MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY FROM 9 AM TO 6 PM (PST) OR FAX AT [phone]. YORKVILLE SOUND MAKES NO CLAIMS AS TO THE SAFETY OF THE ENCLOSURES IF RECOMMENDED LOAD LIMITS AND HARDWARE ARE NOT STRICTLY ADHERED TO. NOR DOES IT MAKE ANY SAFETY CLAIMS TO THE RESULTANT INSTALLATION. IMPORTANT!! TRACK RAILINGS: UNITS THAT INCORPORATE THE TRACK RAILING SYSTEM HAVE THE SAME WORKING LOAD LIMITS AS THEY DO WHEN THEY ARE USED WITH EYEBOLTS. THESE RATINGS MAY BE LIMITED AND BASED ON THE RATINGS OF THE TRACK FITTINGS THEMSELVES. PLEASE ENSURE THAT THE RATING OF THE CERTIFIED TRACK FITTINGS EXCEEDS
