Technomad DragonFly PA System
Owner's Manual and Operation Guide
Overview
The DragonFly is a full range, PA system designed to provide high quality, battery powered audio
while offering Technomad’s unsurpassed combination of audio quality, product flexibility and
ruggedness. Fully weatherproof, the DragonFly can easily be transported and set up by one per-
son. A molded in stand-mount socket on the bottom of the unit and inserts on the sides for yoke
mounting give the DragonFly a range of deployment options. With a high quality 6.5” neodymium
coaxial driver coupled with a powerful 200W amplifier, the DragonFly is capable of producing high-
ly intelligible audio at 120 dB SPL.
The DragonFly is highly expandable with an available expansion bay for use with a modular ver-
sion of Technomad’s Schedulon MP3 player/recorder, a CD player module, a second wireless mi-
crophone receiveror a audio distribution option, including wireless, Ethernet and twisted pair con-
figurations. Extended operation time is available with an external battery pack option. Whether
you need a self-contained, complete PA unit for field deployment or to expand or build an existing
PA system with additional, compact output units, the DragonFly can meet your requirements.
Physical Construction
The DragonFly has a single piece rotomolded cabinet, making the unit extremely durable. When
the clear hatch covering the upper control surface is closed and latched, the unit is rated IP56.
The hatch should not be left open in rain or snow conditions. The front lid is designed to be re-
moved during operation. Similarly, the access panel for the wireless microphone programming
buttons should not be opened in rain or snow conditions.
The DragonFly now features a PVC grill and high-density polyurethane rear panel. This is to im-
prove the range of the wireless microphone system as metal can impact transmission.
