Rear Panel - Mixer - CVXL-118s, CVXL-218s

SIGNAL/CLIP INDICATOR
Each of the two inputs is monitored by an indicator that provides
status on the incoming audio signal. The SIGNAL indicator is
illuminated when there is an audio signal present with a level
greater than -30dBu. The CLIP indicator is illuminated when the
audio signal is clipping and adjustments must be made to avoid
amplifier shutdown and poor sound quality.
prevent clipping are made by reducing the input signal gain/level
on the appropriate channel or reducing the volume level on your
audio source, if possible.
INPUT 1 & INPUT 2 INPUT JACKS
A combination input on each channel allows for either XLR or ¼"
TRS cable types.
THRU 1 & THRU 2
The balanced XLR outputs THRU 1 & THRU 2 are high pass filtered
from the respective INPUT 1 and INPUT 2 connectors. The crossover frequency of the high pass filtering is determined
by the position of the CROSSOVER FREQUENCY switch.
LINK OUTPUT
This is a balanced XLR output that is the sum of the two input channels. This output is not affected by changes to the
Main Level knob or the custom features. This connection is designed to provide an output which combines both input
channels together for connecting to an additional powered speaker.
MAIN LEVEL KNOB & REMOTE VOLUME CONTROL
It is highly recommended to have the volume set to the minimal (MIN) level upon initial system start-up and it can be
adjusted two different ways. On the main volume knob, volume is increased in a clockwise rotation and decreased in
a counter-clockwise rotation. Another method to control the volume is by using the Remote connection (sold
separately). A removable three-terminal jack can be wired over long distances to a remote volume control device
with a corresponding connection.
INDICATORS
Three indicators provide operating condition status on the CVXL-118s and CVXL-218s:
1) The POWER indicator (green) will illuminate when power is properly applied and the main power switch is
'ON'.
2) The CLIP indicator (yellow) will illuminate when the sound output is near the maximum and automatically
reduced to prevent damage to the speaker. In such a condition, it is suggested to reduce the volume level so
the CLIP indicator does not illuminate. Continued use, while this indicator is illuminated, may result in a
protect condition where no sound can be produced.
3) The PROTECT indicator (red) will illuminate when a fault occurs and the speaker automatically places itself
into a condition where sound output is shut off. This condition may be the result of excessive clipping,
excessive heat, or low voltage. These conditions can cause significant damage to the product.
