Frequently Asked Questions - ALA10T ATLAS

How do I pair the speaker with my phone via Bluetooth?

Ensure the speaker is turned on. Press and hold the Bluetooth button (or power button if combined) until the LED indicator flashes blue and red. On your phone, enable Bluetooth and search for devices. Select 'ATLAS ALA10T' from the list. If prompted, enter the PIN '0000'. The LED will turn solid blue when connected.

How long does the battery take to charge, and how can I check the battery level?

Charging takes about 3 hours using the included USB cable connected to a 5V/1A adapter. The LED indicator turns red while charging and goes off when fully charged. To check battery level, press the power button briefly; the LED will flash green if >50%, yellow if 20-50%, and red if <20%.

Can I use the speaker while it is charging?

Yes, you can play music through the speaker while it is plugged in to charge. The battery will charge simultaneously.

How do I reset the speaker if it stops responding?

If the speaker freezes or does not respond, try a reset: press and hold the power button for about 10 seconds until the device turns off. Then turn it on again. If the issue persists, check the battery level or try a different charging cable.

The speaker is not connecting to my device. What should I do?

First, make sure the speaker is in pairing mode (LED flashing). Check that your device's Bluetooth is on and within range (10m). Delete the speaker from your device's Bluetooth list and try pairing again. If it still fails, reset the speaker as described above.

Can I connect two speakers together for stereo sound?

Yes, if your speaker supports True Wireless Stereo (TWS). Pair the first speaker with your phone. Then turn on the second speaker and press the TWS button (if available) or double-click the play button to initiate pairing. The two speakers will connect automatically for left/right channel output.

The sound is distorted or low volume. How can I improve it?

Ensure the volume on both the speaker and your device is raised to at least 70%. Move any obstructions between the source and speaker. If using Bluetooth, avoid interference from other devices. For AUX input, check the cable connection. If distortion persists, try a different audio source.

How do I use the microSD card slot?

Insert a microSD card (TF card) into the slot until it clicks. The speaker will automatically switch to TF card mode and start playing MP3 files from the card. Use the control buttons to navigate tracks. To exit, remove the card or press the mode button.

Is the speaker waterproof?

The speaker has an IPX5 rating, meaning it can withstand splashes of water from any direction. It is not fully waterproof and should not be submerged or exposed to heavy rain for extended periods.

What should I do if the speaker gets wet?

If the speaker is exposed to water, wipe it dry with a soft cloth immediately. Remove any moisture from the charging port. Do not charge until completely dry. If water enters the internal components, turn off the speaker and let it dry naturally before using again.

Hearing Damage

CAUTION: All professional loudspeaker systems are capable of generating very high sound pressure levels. Use care with placement and operation to avoid exposure to excessive levels that can cause permanent hearing damage.

Suspension and Mounting

Installing speaker systems requires training and expertise. Improper speaker installation may result in injury, death, equipment damage, and legal liability. Installation must be carried out by fully qualified installers, in accordance with all required safety codes and standards at the place of installation.

Legal requirements for overhead installation vary by municipality, please consult the Building Inspector office before installing any product and thoroughly check any laws and bylaws prior to installation. Installers that lack the skills, training, and proper ancillary equipment to install a speaker system should not attempt to do so.

Installation

1. Run the wiring from the power amplifier to the location desired for mounting the ALA Series speaker.
2. Attach the lower wall bracket to the wall. Use a level to be certain that the wall bracket is straight. Secure the wall bracket to the wall. Be sure to use the appropriate wall anchors when attaching the bracket. Use all four screw holes for maximum integrity and safety. Note: Hardware for attaching the wall bracket to the wall is not included.

Fig. 1

1. Attach the upper wall bracket as required.

A. The location of the upper wall bracket will vary according to the angle that the speaker will be used.
B. If the speaker will be parallel to the wall, the upper wall bracket can be located 18" to 29 3/4 " center to center. Two short speaker brackets will be used; one on the top and one on the bottom.
