Protection

Limiters

BlacklineX Powered loudspeakers employ built-in DSP limiters for drive unit protection.
The individual drive units use DSP limiters optimised so that their effect is not noticeable in normal use but protect against mechanical
and thermal overload. Limiters cannot protect against highly clipped input signals, so if excessive distortion is heard, the level should be
reduced to avoid damage.

Thermal Protection

Although the class D amplifiers in BlacklineX Powered are very efficient, all amplifiers do produce heat. In the unlikely event of the
amplifier overheating, for example if the loudspeakers are installed in a hot location such as in direct sunlight or under hot stage lights, the
amplifier has built in thermal protection to ensure a safe operating temperature is maintained. When the amplifier cools to a safe operating
temperature the switch resets and the amplifier resumes normal operation.
