 LED POWER INDICATOR

 

 

 

The  green  LED  POWER  indicator,  located  on  the  back  of  the 
amplifier, will illuminate when the AC Power switch is in the “ON” 
position. The LED POWER indicator will dim and turn off when the 
AC Power switch is in the “OFF” position or AC mains power has 
been disconnected from the loudspeaker.

 

 

If the POWER indicator does not illuminate when the loudspeaker 
is powered on, verify the AC mains line cord is properly connected 
to the loudspeaker and inserted into the AC outlet. Verify the AC 
outlet at the venue of operation is functioning properly. In the event 
of the AC mains outlet functioning properly, but the loudspeaker 
fails  to  operate,  the  loudspeaker  may  require  servicing.  Please 
contact [email protected] for service instructions.

  PROTECT LED INDICATOR

 

 

If  the  power  module  overheats,  the  amplifier  will  go  into  
“protection mode” to limit further temperature rise. The amplifier 
will take about 30 seconds to several minutes for the temperature 
to  drop  and  resume  operation.  When  this  occurs,  the  exposed 
heat sink will feel hot to the touch.

 

• 

 

Overheating  is  usually  caused  by  excessive  ambient  
temperature,  direct  sunlight  for  a  prolonged  period  of 
time  during  operation,  or  playing  the  loudspeaker  past  its  
operational limits.

 

 

If thermal overheating occurs, reduce signal level to avoid constant 
illumination of the LIMIT LED INDICATOR. In some circumstances, 
for example when ambient temperature is too high, you may need 
to set a fan behind the speaker to improve ventilation at heatsink.

 LIMIT LED INDICATOR

 

 

The  red  LIMIT  indicator  alerts  the  user  that  the  amplifier  output 
signal is clipping and therefore is being compressed by the built-in 
clip-limiter.

 

 Momentary Bright Red Flashes

 

  • 

 

Indicates that the amplifier is clipping briefly causing overdrive 
distortion and the internal limiter is reducing gain.

 

  • 

 

HP  amplifiers  employ  a  sophisticated  compressor-limiter 
circuitry,  which  is  nearly  inaudible  at  moderate  overdrive 
conditions. It is normal to see the occasional flashing of the 
red LIMIT LED.

 

 Continuous Bright Red Light

 

  • 

 Indicates continuous and gross overloading of the amplifier. 

Such overloads are audible and may lead to overheating of the 
amplifier and shortening the life of the speaker components. 
If the amplifier is grossly overloaded and the red LIMIT LED is 
on the most of the time, the operator should reduce the signal 
level so that LIMIT LED only flashes occasionally.

 SIGNAL LED INDICATOR

 

 

The green SIGNAL indicator alerts the operator to the presence of 
an input signal at the loudspeaker amplifier.

 

 

• 

 

If there is no indication, check the gain settings on the amplifier 
and  increase  the  gain  if  necessary.  Check  input  connections 
and audio source for signal. If no output persists, try a different 
signal cable from your mixer to the HP Series loudspeaker.

 

 

• I

 

f the green SIGNAL LED remains illuminated without a source 
connected, the amp may need servicing.

  LEVEL CoNtRol

 

 

Turn  the  LEVEL  control  clockwise  to  increase  gain  and  counter 
clockwise  to  decrease  gain.  When  operating  with  the  GAIN 
set  at  1/3  volume  or  below,  it  may  be  possible  to  exceed  the 
headroom  of  input  circuitry  on  your  loudspeaker.  If  this  is  the 
case, reduce the input signal strength and increase the gain of the  
loudspeaker amplifier.

 

 

Always  observe  the  red  LIMIT  LED  on  the  amplifier  panel.  This 
LED  lights  when  a  signal  is  clipping  and  the  compressor-limiter 
is  activated.  All  HP  Series  amplifiers  employ  a  sophisticated 
limiter circuitry, which monitors signal condition at both LF and HF 
amplifiers (LF only on HP118S) and compresses the output signal 
when necessary to protect woofer and compression driver from 
damages. Limiter circuitry works very unobtrusively; you may not 
even  notice  when  it  activates.  It  may  prompt  you  to  push  input 
signal  more,  but  it  is  a  good  practice  to  have  red  LIMIT  LEDs  
blink occasionally and not constantly. A constant LIMIT LED light 
indicates a gross overloading condition and should be avoided. 
Reduce the signal level if the LIMIT LED lights or blinks constantly.

 

 

NOTE  that  LEVEL  Control  has  a  range  of  30dB.  It  does  not 
attenuate output signal to zero. LEVEL control on the loudspeakers 
is  used  to  set  optimal  maximum  level  for  performance,  not  for 
constant  control  of  sound  volume.  Your  mixer’s  master  volume 
control should be used for this purpose.

 

 

NOTE  that  LEVEL  control  provides  about  12dB  attenuation  in 
middle  position.  You  will  find  that  in  most  cases  the  best  sound 
(lowest distortions and lowest noise) will be achieved when LEVEL 
control  is  set  somewhere  between  middle  and  full  clockwise 
position.

  lOW CUT SWITCH

 

 

HP112, HP115, HP215:  Found beneath the LEVEL control, this small 
slider  switch  engages  or  disengages  the  100Hz  18db/Octave 
Low Cut filter. Switch the filter OFF when not using subwoofers or 
other low frequency enclosures. Switch the filter ON when you 
are  connecting  subwoofers  or  low  frequency  systems.  This  will 
enable your subwoofer-equipped system to operate properly and
