Powering up
Your new QR10PA portable PA unit may arrive with you with the internal battery charged. Before connecting to the mains
with the supplied power adaptor, switch the unit on and check the POWER LED. If it is green, there is charge in the
battery. If it is red, then you will need to charge the battery before using away from a mains supply
Connect the QR10 PA unit to the mains using the supplied power adaptor. You may otherwise opt to connect the DC
input jack to an external 12-15Vdc supply, such as a car battery, or use the internal battery if charged.
When not in use but connected to the mains, if the POWER switch is in the
off position, the internal battery will be re-
charged from the mains supply. This can be observed by the CHARGE LED which will light orange when charging. When
fully charged, the CHARGE LED will change to green.
Initial setup
Turn all VOLUME & ECHO controls down (anti-clockwise) and turn the POWER switch on (the power LED should light).
BASS and TREBLE (5, 16) controls should remain pointing vertically (12-o-clock position). Turn up the main VOLUME
control (14) part way and switch VCV (15) off. Your QR10PA unit should now be ready to operate.
VHF Neckband Microphone
Connect the neckband microphone to the bodypack via the 3.5mm jack, slide open the bodypack and insert the supplied
AA batteries, observing the correct polarity. With the VHF WIRELESS MICROPHONE VOL (6) control turned down, press
the VHF ON/OFF button (17) in so that the VHF POWER LED (18) lights.
Switch on the beltpack transmitter fully (2 clicks as the centre position is “MUTE”) –
the RF LED should light as a result.
Turn up the volume control on the beltpack fully
–
this can be turned down later if required. If the LED on the transmitter
lights dimly, change the battery.
Gradually increase VHF VOL control, testing the neckband microphone for output through the speaker.
Take care not to incur “feedback” (howling or screeching sound through the speaker) by keeping the microphone a
sensible distance from the speaker and pointing away from the speaker so that it doesn’t
hear the speaker output.
Turning the ECHO control (3) clockwise introduces a pre-set echo function for singing and special effects. BASS and
TREBLE (5, 16) can be cut by turning anti-clockwise or boosted by turning clockwise.
When not in use, switch the beltpack transmitter off and remove the batteries if not being used for long periods.
