REAR PANEL DESCRIPTION

Hyper-Pro Plus Series active loudspeakers have several connectors, controls, and indicators the use of which you should understand.

1. CH 1 & CH2 Inputs

   • Note : Set the Gain control to the minimum before connecting an audio signal.
   • Once the system is powered up, we recommend that the Gain set to midway is a good starting point.

2. SPEAKER MODE

   • Four presets are included to optimize the response of the cabinet to suit your needs.
   • Cycle through them using the Mode button.
   • MUSIC : A bass lift with a flat mid to high response.
   • LIVE : Similar to the MUSIC preset with the LF lift frequency shifted.
   • MON : A LF and HF roll-off with a slight mid band cut for clarity.
   • VOCAL: A bass roll-off with flat mid and upper frequencies.
   • Note: The EQ setting is stored and recalled following a power cycle.

3. LIMITER

   • This LED indicates that the limiter is on when the output voltage of the amplifier ex- ceeds the maximum level, or when power overload is detected. Some flashing of this
     LED may be normal, but if it stays on for a long time, lower the input level.

4. FRONT LED SWITCH

   • This switch allows to turn ON/OFF the Blue front LED.

5. MASTER VOLUME

   • Controls the overall level of the speaker. Set this control to minimum when switching the unit ON or Off.

6. MIX OUT

   • A signal feed that can be used to connect a second Hyper-Pro Plus speaker or other PA or recording console. The MIX OUT signal level is not affected by the MASTER VOL- UME knob.

7. POWER SWITCH

   • Use this switch to turn the speaker on and off. Ensure the Master Volume controls is set to a minimum when switching on and off.

8. VOLTAGE SELECT SWITCH

   • Please check the voltage setting is correct before powering up for the first time your Hyper-Pro Plus speaker. Damage could occur if the voltage is incorrectly set. It is protected by a Plexiglas cover to prevent an accidental and incorrect voltage selection.

9. Air Vents

   • These are critical for the reliability of the amplifier. They let the internal power amplifier cooling to correctly operate, and preserve the amp from overheating. PLEASE DO NOT BLOCK.

10. Fuse Holder

    • In case of fuse burn, to prevent the risk of fire and damaging the unit, please use only of the recommended fuse type as described in “8. SPECIFICATIONS” on page 13. Before replacing the fuse, make sure the unit turned off and disconnected from the AC outlet.

11. IEC Socket

    • Plug the power cord into an AC socket properly configured for your particular model.

Note: If you happen to lose the AC line cord, always use a three-pin plug with a ground pin. The wire correspondence is as follow:

Always connect the earth! Pay attention to your safety!
Before taking into operation for the first time, the installation has to be approved by an expert.

AUDIO CONNECTIONS

You will need several cables for the various connections to and from the speaker. See the pictures below that show the internal wiring of these cables. Be sure to use only high quality cables.

You can, of course, also connect unbalanced equipment to balanced inputs. Use either mono and stereo jack, making sure ring and collar are connected together (or pins 1 &3 in the case of XLR connectors).

FIXED INSTALLATION

The installation of Hyper-Pro Plus speakers has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1 hour without any harming demolition. The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment (e.g. an appropriate catch net). This secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down if the main attachment fails.

When rigging, de-rigging or servicing the unit, 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 the safety measure and the unit’s technical installation is approved by an expert before taking into operation for the first time and after changes before taking into operation another time.

IMPORTANT: Overhead rigging 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 loudspeaker. 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 property loss.

If the unit is to be placed lower from a high position such as a ceiling or high structure, professional truss systems must be used. The loudspeaker must never be installed in such a way that it can oscillate freely

CAUTION: Speakers may cause severe injuries when crashing down. If you have doubts concerning the safety of a possible installation, do not install the unit!
