Following is a list of common easily remedied issues. Consult this list if you are having any 
difficulties operating your speakers.

TROUBLESHOOTING LIST

Condition

Cause

Remedy

Lack of network terminators

Install terminators in first and last speaker.

Volume setting seems 
low

DIM button on Remote 
Control is activated

Press DIM button on remote control to restore full 
volume. Caution – To prevent sudden jump in volume, 
lower the system volume setting prior to deactivating 
DIM control.

No Meter Display

Brightness control is turned 
down

Use the brightness control or hold +/- to enter the 
brightness mode, and push + until you have the 
brightness level you like.

The speaker will not 
output any audio, and 
the solo light on the 
front is blinking.

The Speaker is in SOLO 
mode.  

In a networked system, press SOLO on the speakers 
that have their SOLO button  blinking.  If your system 
is no longer networked and the speaker is still muted, 
hard reset your loudspeaker.

I just finished 
connecting my system, 
but there is no audio.

Input selection is not set to 
match input source.

Make sure your input selection matches the inputs you 
are using (Analog, S/PDIF, AES/EBU).

I selected my digital 
input, but the audio 
keeps dropping out.

Poor connection, defective 
cable, or source is unstable.

Check connections and cables.  Confirm you are using 
suitable cable of proper impedance.  If cables and 
connections are OK, source may be unstable.

I am having trouble 
daisy- chaining my 
digital audio through 
multiple speakers.

Cable may not be suitable for 
digital application.

Make sure you are using cables per the  
S/PDIF and AES/EBU specification as described on 
page 39 in this manual.

My remote control 
doesn’t work all of the 
time.

Batteries weak.
Remote is not pointed at the 
receiver.

Make sure remote is pointed at the Front Left speaker 
(the speaker with LEFT DIP switch in the ON position).

My speaker will not 
power up.  There 
are no lights at all 
anywhere on the 
speaker.

Speaker is not connected 
to power source or fuse is 
blown.

Confirm your speaker is connected to an active power 
source. 
Check the fuse.  If blown, replace with the spare 
provided in the fuse holder in the IEC power 
connector.  If speaker fails to power-up please call JBL 
Customer Service.

Upon boot –up, 
LSR4300 Control 
Center Sofware 
does not “recognize” 
connected speakers. 

USB connection and/or 
Network cables not properly 
connected.
Missing terminator.

Check all network connections to make sure the CAT5 
cable is inserted all the way into each jack.
Make sure you have two network terminators 
installed in your system so that all RJ485 jacks are in 
use.  Confirm the USB cable from your computer is 
connected to the front left speaker (the speaker with 
LEFT DIP switch in the ON position).
