USE
Use of this two-way, bass-reflex active sound box is recommended mainly for amplifying and
hobby band purposes. It can be placed on a stand, additionally it is easy to carry thanks to
the retractable carrying handle and rollers. Its built-in accumulator provides the possibility to
be operated without mains voltage. External devices can directly be connected to it, for ins
-
tance: mobile phone, computer, CD/DVD player, musical instrument, microphone… Besides
the speakers, the device contains power amplifier, and a BT/FM/MP3 multimedia player. Its
accessories are two handheld microphones, a remote control and a charger.
POWER SUPPLY OPTIONS
The stage cabinet can be operated from three different sources of power. In addition to the
standard power (adapter) connection (
DC IN
), it has a built-in accumulator and it can also be
connected into an external (option) 12 Volt accumulator (EXTERNAL BATTERY). Choosing
the latter case, observe the correct polarity: red/black clip connector (+/- 12 Volt). Use at least
2x0,75mm2 cross-section wires. Place the external accumulator nearby the stage cabinet,
with the shortest connection cable possible. Combined with a secondary accumulator, an
extremely long operation time can be reached.
• After operation and charging, disconnect all power cords.
• Only connectable to the charger adapter supplied with it.
CHARGING UP THE BUILT-IN ACCUMULATOR
The accumulator must be charged up prior to the first use. Connect the charger supplied with
it – exclusively this one – to the stage cabinet (
DC IN
), afterwards to the mains, and leave
the stage cabinet switched off. During charging, the red LED is lighting next to the connector
socket. By the time automatic charging has ended up, the LED turns into green. This time,
remove the charger and install the device. In case of completely depleted accumulator,
charging time takes approximately 3 hours and 10 minutes. This provides approx. 16 hours
of operation powered from the internal accumulator, used on medium volume. This depends
on the volume set, the mode selected and also the environmental temperature. The test
was done by listening to the radio, on room temperature. It can also be charged during
use, nevertheless this increases charging time and might cause some additional noise. By
connecting an external accumulator, operation time can be significantly increased.
• After finishing charge and use, switch it off (POWER OFF switch on the backside) and unplug it from
the mains. If an external accumulator also has been connected, then remove that, too.
• Only leave it connected after the complete charging has been finished, if the device operates
continuously. Charging might occasionally cause noise in the speakers and might also decrease the
quality of radio reception. This device has been designed for use operated from accumulator, it is
recommended to charge it up after use.
• When the device is switched off, the automatic accumulator works. Therefore, remove the charger
after finishing charging.
• For reaching a longer lifespan, keep the accumulator charged up even when it is out of use.
• The used accumulator is lithium ion type. It does not require maintenance. By the end of its lifespan,
it can be replaced by a specialist, after the lid on its backside has been removed. The lid is fixed by
screws.
INSTALLATION
All connections should be carried out when the system is unplugged. Make sure that the
speaker cabinet and also the devices to be connected are switched off. Make sure that the
connectors’ polarity and their connection follow the observations. Keep the microphone cable
and the audio cable away from the power cable.
Set the volume (
MUSIC VOL
) to low position, then switch it on using the
POWER
switch.
After the
HI
welcome, it changes to
AUX (LINE IN)
mode. If you do not use the
POWER
ON/OFF
switch to switch it off, instead of it you use the remote control, then after switching
it back on, the last listened-to function and volume resumes. Complete switch off cannot be
reached by using the remote control, instead of use the
POWER
switch.
• After switching it on, next to the digital screen the bottom green LED indicates operation.
• If you switch it off using the remote control, the green LED continues to light.
VOLUME-CONTROL AND FUNCTION CHANGE
You can adjust the volume using the
MUSIC VOL
rotary knob or by holding the control
panel’s scroll buttons pressed ( ) or with the remote control’s
VOL+/VOL-
buttons. If
you connect external devices, the volume of them can be individually adjusted:
,
VOL+/-
: the volume of the multimedia unit
WIRELESS MIC VOL:
the wireless microphone(s), accessory
WIRED MIC VOL:
the wired microphone(s), optionally
GUITAR VOL:
guitar(s), option
If there has been a BT device connected to it previously – and it can be found nearby – then
connection is automatic when you activate BT mode. The function to be operated is selec
-
table by pressing the
IN
(INPUT) button (or the
MODE
button on the remote control):
LINE–BLUE–USB–SD–FM–LINE…
The available multimedia functions are: connecting external devices (LINE IN), wireless BT
connection (BLUE), USB/SD MP3/WMA player, FM radio. In case of different signal sources,
the available services may differ.
• If the control panel’s MUSIC VOL volume-control is set in minimum positon, volume cannot be
increased neither with the remote control, nor with the scroll buttons. Do not forget, that these setting
options have an effect on each other.
• You can adjust the volume by holding the multimedia unit’s scroll buttons pressed (
). Pressing
the button briefly may activate another function depending on the operating mode of the appliance.
MAXIMUM VOLUME
All speakers must be operated in prior to proper use. Operate only at 50 % load for the first
30–50 hours of operation.
At higher volume – in some cases – distorted, bad sound quality may be experienced. This
may be caused by an overly high input signal level. To avoid this, reduce the signal level of
the input channel or if necessary, reduce the main main volume (
VOLUME
). The maximum
volume of the system is that which can be heard in good quality without distortion.
• When turning the volume upper, the output power will not increase, while the distortion level will grow!
This is very harmful to the speakers and may lead to malfunction.
• If you connect a microphone, place it as far from the speaker box as you can, to avoid feedback! The
speaker box should not be aimed toward the microphone, as feedback is harmful to the speakers!
When using a microphone, increase the volume carefully, and immediately rotate it back when you
experience feedback, and reposition the speaker box, if needed.
TONE-CONTROL
There are several options for customizing the tone on the control panel of the sound box and
on the remote control. Note that different signal sources and different volume levels require
different settings, otherwise the sound quality may decline. The settings can be applied
together. Sound effect options: bass, center and high controls on the control panel for the
music, the same for microphones, sound settings with the remote control’s EQ button: EQ
0…1…2…3…4…5
• The EQ button only changes the sound of USB/SD signal sources.
WIRELESS BT CONNECTION
The device can be paired with other devices that communicate with BT protocol, within a ran
-
ge of up to 10 meters. After that, you can listen to music played on your mobile phone, tablet,
notebook, and other similar devices. Select the
BT
function by briefly, repeatedly pressing
the
IN
or
MODE
(on the remote control) button, the
BLUE
text is readable. Place the device
to be connected nearby, and in the way it’s written in it’s the instruction manual, search the
devices nearby which have BT wireless connection, including this speaker. Connect the two
devices with each other. The
BT symbol
is flashing on the display until pairing is finished,
then it is continuously visible in the bottom corner of the display. Afterwards, the desired
program can be heard on the loudspeaker. The player device’s program (e.g. mobile phone)
can usually be remotely controlled by pressing the / /
buttons shortly.
• One speaker can be paired wirelessly with one BT device at the same time.
• After switching it on, it automatically reconnects to the previously paired and properly connected
device, if it is nearby.
• In case of the wireless connection is lost, if necessary, keep pressing the IN/MODE button until
accessing the BT function again and the pairing mode reactivates. If necessary, switch the sound box or
the BT mode on the mobile phone off and back on.
• If the connected mobile phone receives call during music playback, music playing will be paused. After
the conversation has finished, restart the playback on the phone.
• The actual range depends on the other device and the ambient conditions. (e.g. walls, human bodies,
other electric appliances, movement…)
• Abnormal operation and noise may be caused by nearby electrical appliances, this does not indicate
a malfunction of the appliance.
• Abnormal operation, noise may be caused by the electrical appliances operating nearby, this does
not indicate the malfunction of the device. Occasionally, the BT function may be limited depending on
the external device.
• If you listen to it while charging, network noise may occasionally occur in the speakers. This device
is intended for use when supplied with power from a battery, and it is recommended to recharge it
after use.
