Connections; Before Turning On The Speaker; Cardioid Set-Up; Installation - RCF SUB 8003-AS II Owner's Manual

Using the RDNet IN/OUT connection it is possible to load in the speaker memory a dedicated
user equalisation. The speaker reset procedure will cancel even this equalisation.
The XLR connectors use the following AES standard:
PIN 1 = GROUND (SHIELD)
PIN 2 = HOT (+)
PIN 3 = COLD (-)
At this point you can connect the power supply cable and the signal cable, but before turning
on the speaker make sure that the volume control is at the minimum level (even on the mixer
output). It is important that the mixer is already ON before turning on the speaker. This will avoid
damage to the speakers and noisy "bumps" due to turning on parts on the audio chain. It is a
good practice to always turn on speakers at last and turn them off immediately after the show.
Now you can turn ON the speaker and adjust the volume control to a proper level.
It is possible to create subwoofer cardioid systems using groups of two or three modules.
A group of two modules shall be made as follow:
- Only use one of the L presets (30 Hz High Pass filter)
- 1 modules pointing in forward direction
- 1 module pointing in backward direction, correspondent cardioid preset
- The modules shall have the same settings (system delay, sensitivity, preset)
A group of three modules shall be made as follow:
- Only use one of the L presets (30 Hz High Pass filter)
- 2 modules pointing in forward direction
- 1 module pointing in backward direction, correspondent cardioid preset
- The modules shall have the same settings (system delay, preset)
- The 2 front modules shall have -1.5 dB gain less than the rear module.
Never suspend SUB Series subwoofers by there handles. Handles are intended
for transportation, not for rigging.
Always make sure that the maximum current requirement does not exceed
the maximum admitted POWERCON current. In case of doubt call the closest RCF SERVICE
CENTRE.
The fuse settings/replacement shall be as follow: FUSE VALUE T 6.30 A H 250 V
