LED INDICATORS

CLIP (Yellow Light):
The yellow ‘CLIP’ lights located on input channels 1, 2, and 3, represent clipping due to excessive gain. When any of these yellow lights are illuminated, it signals that the incoming signal on the respective channel is too strong. Adjust the input levels for channels 1, 2, or 3 accordingly to prevent distortion and maintain clear audio quality.

POWER (Green Light):
The ‘POWER’ indicator is the green light located in the master section of the mixer. When the speaker is turned on, this light emits a green glow, confirming that the speaker is powered up and ready for operation.

LIMIT (Red Light):
The red ‘LIMIT’ light is also located in the master section of the mixer. If this light is illuminated, it indicates that the master volume is too high, triggering the speaker’s limiter. This excessive signal can impact the overall dynamic range and auditory experience. To rectify this, adjust the master volume appropriately by turning it down until the red light is no longer illuminated. This ensures optimal audio quality and prevents potential distortion.

BATTERY LIFE INDICATOR

(WPX-2000TOGO ONLY)

WPX2000TOGO Battery Notice:
For optimal performance and to prevent potential damage, charging the device at least once every 70 days when not in use is recommended. This ensures that the 11.1V Li Battery remains adequately charged and protected from low charge levels.

Battery Replacement:
When replacing the battery, simply remove the screws located at the bottom of the speaker. Replace the old battery with a new one of the same specifications for seamless functionality.
