DANGER OF BURNING!
The materials used in plastic speakers are normally flammable. If B1 is required at the installation place, the surface must be treated with an appropriate fire retardant in regular intervals.
DANGER TO LIFE!
A crashing speaker can cause deadly accidents. All safety instructions given in this manual must be observed.
Keep away children and amateurs!
HEALTH HAZARD! By operating speakers with an amplifier, you can produce excessive sound pressure levels that may lead to permanent hearing loss.
There are no serviceable parts inside the speaker. Maintenance and service operations are only to be carried out by authorized dealers.
3. OPERATING DETERMINATIONS
This column speaker is a 100 Volt system specially designed for application in PA systems and must only be used for permanent installations. This product is only allowed to be connected with an appropriate PA amplifier. The power is matched via selection of cables. The speaker is suitable for outdoor installation (IP 44).
The maximum power of the speaker must never be exceeded. When operating the speaker, please make sure that the loudspeakers always sound well. When distortions can be heard, either the amplifier or the loudspeaker is overloaded. Overloads can quickly lead to amplifier or speaker damage. In order to avoid damage, please reduce the volume immediately when distortions can be heard. When speakers are destroyed by overload, the guarantee becomes void.
WARNING!
Speakers must only be operated by instructed persons. Danger of Life due to crashing speakers or hearing loss due to excessive sound pressure levels! The different local conditions have to be considered in terms of safety rules.
The ambient temperature must always be between -25^ C and +45^ C.
Keep away from direct insulation (particularly in cars) and heaters.
The relative humidity must not exceed 100 % with an ambient temperature of 45°C.
This device must only be operated in an altitude between -20 and 2000 m over NN.
Operate the speaker only after having familiarized with its functions. Do not permit operation by persons not qualified for operating the speaker. Most damages are the result of unprofessional operation!
Never use solvents or aggressive detergents in order to clean the speaker! Rather use a soft and damp cloth.
Please consider that unauthorized modifications on the speaker are forbidden due to safety reasons!
If this speaker will be operated in any way different to the one described in this manual, the product may suffer damages and the guarantee becomes void. Furthermore, any other operation may lead to dangers like crashes, hearing loss etc.
4. INSTALLATION
The speaker can be fastened to the installation area via the installation equipment (mounting bracket, aluminum tube, steel tube, steel ropes or audio cable). Before installing the system, make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 5 times the system's load (e.g. weight 20 kg - point load 100 kg).
The installation of the device has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 5 times the weight for 1 hour without any harming deformation.
English
Please note: when using this speaker system in public or industrial areas, a series of safety instructions have to be followed that this manual can only give in part. The operator must therefore inform himself on the current safety instructions and consider them.
Make sure that the area below the installation place is blocked when installing, uninstalling or servicing the fixture.
When installing, uninstalling or servicing the speaker staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges, under high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are approved by an expert before taking into operation for the first time and after changes before taking into operation another time.
Procedure:
The device should be installed outside areas where persons may walk by or be seated.
IMPORTANT! OVERHEAD INSTALLATION REQUIRES EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE, including (but not limited to) calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the device. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead use a professional structural installer. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and or damage to property.
Caution: Devices in hanging installations may cause severe injuries when crashing down! If you have doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation, do NOT install the device!
4.1 Attachment
The device must only be installed absolutely planar at a vibration-free, oscillation-free and fire-resistant location. Make sure that the device is installed absolutely planar by using a water level.
The device must be installed out of the reach of people.
This device is only allowed for an installation via the installation equipment. In order to safeguard sufficient ventilation, leave 50 cm of free space around the device.
The durability of the installation depends very much on the material used at the installation area (building material) such as wood, concrete, gas concrete, brick etc. This is why the fixing material must be chosen to suit the wall material. Always ask a specialist for the correct plug/screw combination indicating the maximum load and the building material.
4.2 Choosing an appropriate PA amplifier
This speaker must only be connected with an appropriate PA amplifier. Observe the correct power matching. The total load presented to the amplifier must not exceed the rated output of the amplifier.
Before starting with the installation, you must clarify how many speakers you would like to install in the room.
4.3 Electrical connection
DANGER TO LIFE!
High voltage at terminals. Installation by skilled personnel only! Turn off PA system before connecting.
Cabling a PA system is an electric installation which must only be carried out by a qualified electrician! Always insulate the connection cables which are not used. Pay attention to the correct power matching. Overload will result in damage of the PA amplifier and of the speaker.
English
Procedure:
Step 1: If the PA system is turned on, turn it off before making any connection.
Step 2: Connect the speaker via two of the cables to the 100 V output of the PA amplifier: Use the black core COM (negative pole) and, according to the desired power rating, one of the other colored cores (see table in section Technical Specifications).
Step 3: When connecting several speakers, make sure that all speakers have the same polarity and that the amplifier is not overloaded.
5. OPERATION
Switch on the amplifier. Adjust the volume with the volume control.
Always make shure that the output signal is not distorted and that your speakers will not get damaged.
During operation, please make sure the speaker always sounds well. When distortions can be heard, either the amplifier or the speaker is overloaded. Overloads can quickly lead to amplifier or speaker damage.
In order to avoid damage, please reduce the volume immediately when distortions can be heard. When speakers are destroyed by overload, the guarantee becomes void.
Always check the sound pressure level with a meter in order to keep to the threshold.
6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are inspected by an expert after every four years in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-relating and machine-technical installations are inspected by a skilled person once a year.
The following points have to be considered during the inspection:
1) All screws used for installing the speaker systems or parts of the speaker system have to be tightly connected and must not be corroded.
2) There must not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots (ceiling, suspension, trussing).
3) The electric power supply cables must not show any damages, material fatigue (e.g. porous cables) or sediments. Further instructions depending on the installation spot and usage have to be adhered by a skilled installer and any safety problems have to be removed.
We recommend a frequent cleaning of the speaker system. Please use a soft lint-free and moistened cloth. Never use alcohol or solvents!
There are no serviceable parts inside the speaker system. Maintenance and service operations are only to be carried out by authorized dealers.
If the speaker system distorts, one of the loudspeakers may be defective. Test the speaker system once more with another amplifier. If the sound remains distorted, the speaker system should not be operated any more in order to prevent further damage. Please contact your dealer.
If clacking sounds are heard from the speaker system, screws may have loosened due to the continuous vibrations. The speaker system should be checked by a specialist. Especially for public use, the speaker system should be checked before every operation so that the speaker system and the speakers in the systems are always well fixed.
Should you need any spare parts, please use genuine parts.
Should you have further questions, please contact your dealer.
