CONNECTING THE MAGNAT TRANSPULS 800A
Connecting audio sources to the active speaker
1. Connection to an amplifier, AV receiver or other analogue audio source
Connect the audio input of the active loudspeaker (RCA IN, Fig. 2 (6)) to the audio output on the device using an RCA stereo audio cable.
CAUTION : The switch (Fig. 2 (4)) must be set to LINE.
2. Connecting a record player to the active loudspeaker (Record players with a magnet system (MM))
Connect the audio input of the active loudspeaker (RCA IN, Fig. 2 (6)) to the audio output on the record player using an RCA stereo audio
cable. In addition, the earth wire of the record player (where present) has to be connected to the screw terminal (Fig. 2 (5)).
CAUTION : The switch (Fig. 2 (4)) must be set to PHONO.
3. Connect to a headphone jack or pre-amplifier output with 3.5mm jack
Connect the audio input of the active loudspeaker (AUX IN, Fig. 2 (7)) to the headphone output on your amplifier, TV, MP3 player, smartphone,
etc. using a 3.5 mm audio cable/3.5 mm stereo jack.
4. Connecting to digital audio sources
Connect the audio input of the active loudspeaker (Digital IN, Fig. 2 (8)) to the digital output on your CD player, computer, games console,
network player or TV using an optical digital audio cable.
PLEASE NOTE: The digital input is suitable for stereo signals up to 24 bit/192kHz
5. Connection to a Bluetooth device
Switch the active loudspeaker to the Bluetooth input. If you have previously connected a Bluetooth device, the loudspeaker will automatically
attempt to re-establish a connection with this device. If this is the case, you may be required to manually reconfirm the connection on the
source device.
If a connection has not already been made or the connection cannot be re-established, activate the ‚pairing mode‘. To switch the speaker
to the pairing mode, briefly press the PAIR button (Fig. 3, (20)) on the remote control. The blue STBY/Pair LED (Fig. 1, (1)) will flash quickly
whenever the pairing mode is active.
Now activate the Bluetooth mode on your source device. The speaker will appear in the list of Bluetooth devices as „TRANSPULS 800A“.
If it is not displayed in the list, set your source device to search for Bluetooth devices manually and make sure that the speaker has been
switched to the pairing mode.
Depending on the source device, you may be asked whether the password is to be accepted during the pairing procedure. You can confirm
this by simply pressing „Accept“. If you are still asked for a password, use the default passwords „0000“ or „1234“. If you are asked if you
want to establish a connection after pairing, please select „Yes“. When the device has been paired and connected successfully the LED
status indicator will illuminate continuously blue.
The loudspeaker supports the „Qualcomm
®
aptX™“ high quality audio transmission standard. If your source device also supports this
standard, „Qualcomm ® aptX™“ will be selected automatically as the transfer mode when establishing a Bluetooth connection.
6. Connecting the TV to the HDMI
®
port HDMI/ARC (Fig. 2 (9))
Connect your TV to this port if it has an HDMI ® socket with ARC functionality (Audio Return Channel, HDMI ® 1.4 standard).
If the HDMI
®
port on your TV also supports CEC functionality (Consumer Electronics Control), then basic functions of the loudspeaker such
as switching on/off, volume and mute can be controlled via your TV‘s remote control. The CEC functions that are available vary from TV to
TV and should be checked in each individual case. Please refer to the operating instructions supplied with your TV for further information.
Most manufacturers have their own name for the CEC function, however, most end in the term „Link“. Note: for reasons of a technical
nature the CEC function is only available via HDMI
®
ports.
These functions may need to be activated in the TV‘s settings.
The necessary HDMI
®
connecting cable is not included in delivery.
NOTE :
Please check whether the output of the audio source
a) has a fixed volume level or
b) the level can be adjusted with the volume controller of the audio source.
In case a) you can adjust the volume using the remote control of the MAGNAT TRANSPULS 800A; in case b) the level of the audio source
should be set to a maximum level where no distortions can be heard at the highest volume setting of the MAGNAT TRANSPULS 800A.
The volume of the audio source should also be taken into account. No distortions should be evident here either.
Connecting the left speaker
The set consists of an active speaker and a passive speaker. A stereo amplifier is incorporated in the active speaker.
The left, passive speaker is connected using the supplied cable. Please take the polarities into account when doing this. The positive terminal
of the active speaker must be connected with the positive terminal of the passive speaker and the negative terminal of the active speaker
must be connected with the negative terminal of the passive speaker. One wire of the speaker cable is marked to provide protection against
polarity reversal.
