2.2 Connecting Cords
Use a microphone cord equipped with XLR connectors or ¼" (6.3 mm) jack
plugs to route the signal from the audio source (master, monitor, line, or
a similar output) to the balanced L/R Inputs. Connect the powered mid/
high units to the XLR outputs labeled Line Out Mid/High. Use the two Thru
ports to route the fullrange signal on to other powered subwoofers.
2.3 Operating the Sub
• Ensure the PL 118 Sub A subwoofer’s Power switch is set to Off .
Caution! Always make sure the local mains voltage matches the voltage
specifi ed on the unit. You may destroy the powered sub‘s electronic
components if you connect it to the wrong mains voltage.
• Set the Gain Bass knob to 12 o’clock (0 dB/ center-notched).
• Set the Confi guration switch to match the number of PL 118 Sub A subs
you are using.
• Ensure all other connected components sources are switched on before
powering up. First switch on the connected mixer and all signal sources
connected to it, for example, keyboards, amps, eff ects, and so forth.
Always connect powered PULSAR mid/ high units to the Line Out
Mid/High ports and switch them on after all other components are up
and running. When you’re ready to tear the rig down, please turn the
powered PULSAR components down by rotating all input‘s Gain knobs
counterclockwise as far as they will go and switch them off before
powering down all other connected devices.
• When you press the Power button, the fan will briefl y start up (system
check) and stop after about fi ve seconds. The fan is temperature-
controlled. It kicks on only at very high volume levels and runs according to
the given temperature and load. The Status LED lights up red during the
system check, and then green if there is no malfunction and the unit is
getting mains power.
2.4 Settings
Adjusting volume levels with the Gain Bass knob
Use the Gain Bass knob to adjust the PL 118 Sub A subwoofer’s volume to
suit the venue and situation. If you want to boost or cut the subwoofer’s
volume, simply turn this knob to the left or right (control range +/-6 dB).
If you hear distortion or the signal sounds saturated, fi rst check the signal
sources and, if possible, reduce the output signal level there.
Adjusting the corner frequency with the X-Over Bass switch
Use this switch to adjust the PL 118 Sub A‘s frequency range to match the
signal you wish to render and the given surroundings. The Line Out Mid/
High Left/Right outputs are not aff ected by this setting.
Adjusting the phase position with the Phase switch
Use the Phase switch to adjust the PL 118 Sub A subwoofer’s phase position
to match that of the connected mid/ high unit. Always set this switch to 0°
in combination with powered PULSAR speakers. You may have to invert the
phase to operate this sub with other speakers. If so, set the switch to 180°.

steel cables or chains.
The AP-8 is locked in place after installation to prevent
loosening. It provides a large bearing surface. The maximum
tilt angle for a cabinet attached to three pick-points is 45°. The PL 110 FA,
PL 112 FA and PL 115 FA may even be fl own horizontally using four AP-8s.
They are also suitable for HK AUDIO PREMIUM PR:O and LINEAR 5 series

TB-1 Tilt Bracket
This single-cab tilt bracket serves to quickly
attach PL 112 FA and PL 115 FA fullrange
speakers to trusses using the proper half-
couplers or trigger clamps (M12). It is also
suitable for LINEAR 5 series fullrange mid/ high
units. The TB-1 adjusts from side to side and
up and down, so aiming cabinets is an exercise
in convenience, as is installation on ceilings,
wall brackets and stands. Once the unit is aimed properly, the TB-1 is easily
secured with two sturdy clamping levers.
