3.2 Transmitter module

AUDIO LINK TX

see figure

Wireless audio link mode: Via the transmit-
ter module of an active speaker system TXA-
1022CD (master unit), its output signal can be
transferred to the receiver modules of other
active speaker systems (slave units) of the
series TXA-800 / -1020 . At the receiver modules
of the slave units, set the transmission channel
and set the transmitter module of the master
unit to the same channel . Please note: At the
master unit, the receiver module and the trans-
mitter module must be set to different channels;
otherwise, there will be feedback .

Note:

The tone controls (6) and the control MASTER

(11) at the master unit will not have any effect on the
output signal of the transmitter module .

4 Setting Up / Transporting

Place the unit as desired or mount it onto a PA
speaker stand via the stand sleeve on its lower
side .

For transporting, the unit is provided with a

telescopic handle . Push down the unlock but-
ton at the lower side of the handle and extract /
retract the handle as desired .

5 Power Supply

5.1 Mains operation /

Recharging the batteries

To operate the unit via the mains and /or to re-
charge the internal batteries, connect the mains
cable provided to the mains jack (19) and to a
mains socket (230 V / 50 Hz) .

When the unit is connected to the mains,

the batteries will be automatically recharged:
During the recharge, the LED indicators for the
battery status (4) will light up continuously one
after the other . It is not necessary to switch
on the unit for recharging; however, it can be
operated during the recharging process . Once
the recharging process has been completed, the
LED “FULL” will light up continuously .
After operation or after recharging the batter-
ies, disconnect the unit from the mains to avoid
unnecessary power consumption .

5.2 Battery operation

During battery operation, the respective LED (4)
will indicate the charging state of the recharge-
able batteries:

80 – 100 % charged
less than 80 % charged
less than 50 % charged
less than 20 % charged

Important:

To prevent damage to the batteries due

to deep discharge and to prevent a reduction of their
lifetime, please observe the following notes:
– Always fully recharge the batteries prior to initial

operation and after longer storage .

– When the LED “20 %” starts flashing, the batteries

are almost discharged and should be recharged as
soon as possible .

– Fully recharge the batteries prior to longer storage

and at least every two months during storage .

6 Audio Connections

Switch off the unit prior to making any con-
nection .

6.1 Inputs

Two microphones can be connected: via an XLR
plug or a 6 .3 mm plug, to the jack MIC 1 (18)
or, via a 6 .3 mm plug, to the jack MIC 2 (17) .

Audio units with line signal level (e . g .

CD / MP3 player, mixer, tape deck, tuner) can be
connected to the RCA jacks LINE IN (13) and the
3 .5 mm jack AUX IN (15) . It is possible to connect
both mono units and stereo units; in case of a
stereo input signal, the left channel and the right
channel are combined to a mono signal .

6.2 Outputs

Additional audio units such as a recorder or an-
other active speaker system can be connected
to the outputs LINE OUT and AUX OUT (14) .
At both outputs, the mixed signal of the audio
sources will be available, unaffected by the tone
controls (6) and the control MASTER (11) . At
each output jack – the two RCA jacks and the
3 .5 mm jack – a mono signal is available .

7 Operation

CAUTION

Never adjust the active speaker
system to a very high volume .
Permanent high volumes may
damage your hearing!

Your ear will get accustomed to high volumes
which do not seem to be that high any more
after some time . Therefore, do not further in-
crease a high volume after getting used to it .

1) Prior to switching on the unit, set the control

MASTER (11) to “MIN” .

2) To switch the unit on and off, use the POWER

switch (5) . The switch will be illuminated
when the unit is switched on . The battery
status indicators (4) will indicate the charging
status of the rechargeable batteries .

To prevent damage to the batteries by

deep discharge during battery operation, a
discharge protection will automatically switch
off the unit when required . However, due to
self-discharge of the batteries, a deep dis-
charge may also occur when the unit is not

operated for a longer period of time . There-
fore, always observe the box “Important” in
chapter 5 .2 .

3) Switch on the audio sources that are to be

audible and then adjust their volume with
the corresponding controls (see below); use
the control MASTER (11) to adjust the overall
volume for the active speaker system .
Volume adjustment of the audio sources:

– for the two receiver units of the 2-channel

receiver module, use the corresponding
volume control (2), CH .A or CH .B

operation: see chapter 7.1

– for the integrated audio player, use the

VOLUME control (22)

operation: see chapters 7.3 and 3.1

– for a unit connected to the input AUX IN

(15) and the Bluetooth receiver, use the vol-
ume control (8) of the operating panel AUX

operation of the Bluetooth receiver:

see chapter 7.2

Note:

The control will determine the volume of

the mixed signal of both sources when they are
used at the same time .

– for a unit connected to the input LINE IN

(13), use the volume control (7) of the op-
erating panel LINE

– for a microphone connected, use the vol-

ume control (10 or 9) above the corre-
sponding input

Switch unused sources off or set their volume
to minimum .

4) To operate the transmitter module:

see chapter 3 .2 .

5) Use the high-frequency control TREBLE and

the low-frequency control BASS (6) to adjust
the tone of the active speaker system .

6) Use the button VOICE PRIORITY (12) to

activate the microphone priority function .
When the button is pressed (LED beneath
the button illuminated), the volume of the
music currently played will be substantially
reduced while announcements via a micro-
phone connected or a wireless microphone
are being made . To deactivate the function,
disengage the button again .

Note:

The function will also have an effect on the

output signal of the jacks LINE OUT and AUX OUT
(14) as well as on the output signal of the trans-
mitter module .

Control elements and display

Display to indicate the transmission channel (CH 1 … CH 16)

Transmission indicator; will light up when the transmitter module is switched on

Level indicators for the audio signal at the input of the transmitter module
– yellow LED: will light up when a specific minimum level has been reached
– red LED: overload indicator, should only light up briefly for signal peaks; if it lights up continu-

ously, reduce the volume of the respective audio source(s)

Buttons for setting the transmission channel:
1. Press the button SET: The channel indication on the display will start flashing.
2. As long as the channel indication flashes (10 seconds), the arrow buttons can be used to select

the channel.

3. Confirm the selected channel with the button SET (otherwise, the transmitter module will return

to the previously set channel after 10 seconds).

To briefly indicate the radio frequency during operation, keep one of the arrow buttons pressed: The
display will indicate the frequency instead of the channel while the arrow button is pressed.
