PCS 2100 Multimedia Speaker Pair

between light effects and AUX/BT mode ● wireless BT connection ● 3.5mm jack for AUX audio input ● 3.5mm headphone socket ● built-in power cord with USB plug ●  power supply from a computer or adapter (optional)● recommended mains USB adapter: SA 24USB, SA 50USB

APPLICATION
This multimedia speaker pair is primarily recommended for home or office use. It is perfectly suited for connection to a computer, tablet, or mobile phone. With a wired connection to a computer, you can still listen to your mobile phone via a wireless BT connection. The bass is enhanced by a bass-reflex port. Spectacular lighting effects can be adjusted and customized with a touch of a button.

POWER SUPPLY
Connect the USB cable to a computer or a mains USB adapter (not included). Recommended mains charger option: SA 24USB, SA 50USB. The typical current consumption of this product is ~0.5A with normal use. If operated continuously at maximum volume and with the LED lights on, this can occasionally reach 1A. For low-power USB sockets,  we recommend turning off the light effect and/or avoiding setting the maximum volume to reduce power consumption.
● USB sockets on computers and various devices have different charging parameters. Check the specifications of the charger or USB socket before connecting. Maximum values  in general: USB2.0: 500 mA, USB3.0, 3.1: 900 mA, USB-C: 1.5A/3.0A

COMMISSIONING
Make sure that the unit is disconnected from the mains when making connections. Switch off both the sound box and the device to be connected via the AUX socket. Make sure that the connectors have correct wiring and polarity. Keep the audio cable away from the power cords. Turn on the sound box with the rotary knob on the front panel and set it to medium volume. When turned on, the AUX mode (wired input) is activated. You can start listening to the device connected with the 3.5mm stereo jack.
● The speaker with the rotary knob is the right channel, so place it on your right. For example, you can put it next to the right side of the monitor and the other speaker on its left side. This will make the stereo surround effect perfect. The two speakers should be up to ~1 meter apart.

VOLUME CONTROL AND FUNCTION SWITCHING
You can adjust the volume and switch on/off the unit using the rotary knob. The function you want to use can be selected by touching and holding the RGB button on the top of this speaker for a long time of about 2 seconds. A voice announcement informs you about the current mode.
The wired AUX input and the wireless BT connection enable the connection of two different devices at the same time. It is best to connect your computer via wired and your mobile phone via a wireless connection.

• The sound quality depends on the quality of the audio signal received by the external device and its volume and tone settings.
• If the sound box receives a weak signal (low volume), it may cause extra noise, while a too large signal may cause distortion. It is recommended to keep the volume of the source at a medium level.
• To make the appropriate connection, you may need to buy a connection cable or, in some cases, an external adapter. For more information, see the user guide of the device you want to connect.

AUX WIRED MODE
You can use a ø3.5mm stereo jack to receive the headphone or LINE OUT output of an external device.
For example computer, multimedia player, musical instrument, CD/DVD player, mobile phone, tablet…

• In AUX mode, you need to find the tone settings in your computer’s settings. You may want to install an appropriate program for better sound.
• In BT mode, correctly setting the volume and tone on the mobile phone is important for good sound quality. You can choose from countless equalizer applications for free.
•  Note that different signal sources and volume levels may require different settings. Otherwise, the sound quality may deteriorate. Always find the best volume and tone settings for the current program.

WIRELESS BT CONNECTION
Within a maximum range of 10 meters, the unit can be paired with other equipment communicating according to the BT protocol. After pairing, you can listen to music played on your mobile phone, tablet, notebook, or another similar device. Choose the BT function by pressing and holding the RGB button. Place the device to be paired in the vicinity of the unit, and find nearby wireless BT devices, including this sound box, as described in its operating manual. Connect the two devices. A successful connection is confirmed by an acoustic signal. Then you can listen to the desired program via the speakers.

• In BT mode, correctly setting the volume and tone on the mobile phone is important for good sound quality.
• One sound box can be paired with one BT signal source at a time.
• If the wireless connection is lost, turn BT mode off and back on, if necessary, on either the speaker or your mobile device.
• If you receive a phone call to the connected mobile phone while listening to music, the music will pause. After your conversation, restart playback if it does not resume automatically.
• The actual range depends on the other device and the environmental conditions (e.g., walls, human bodies, other electrical appliances, motion…)
• Electrical devices operated nearby may cause abnormal operation or noise; this does not indicate a malfunction of the sound box!
• The abnormal operation may be caused by the individual characteristics of the external device; this is not a sign of product malfunction. In certain cases, the BT functionality may be limited, depending on the external device.

HEADPHONE SOCKET
You can insert a 3.5 mm diameter headphone jack into the socket next to the rotary knob. Now you can then listen to music through your headphones instead of the speakers.
LED LIGHT EFFECT
An RGB LED light effect is activated when the sound box is switched on. You can choose from several light shows or switch them off. Tap the RGB touch button briefly several times on top of the active speaker and choose the one you like.
1x / the alternating rainbow effect stops in the selected state
2x / alternating solid red, blue, yellow, turquoise, pink, and green light
3x / the color change stops at the current color from the ones above
4x / volume-dependent signal level meter
5x / LED lights off
● You can decrease current consumption by switching the lights off.
