Page 4: Foreword
2 Foreword Foreword The Powerstick is an ultra compact and especially low weight amplifier with 2x 500 Watt power @ 4 Ohm (AES) and integrated DSP Controller. It is designed for installation in the stand columns (monopods) of the L-series and can also be docked directly on the back of the L-series line source speakers. -
Page 5: Safety Instructions
There are no user serviceable parts inside the device. For repairs, contact your dealer or a qualified service technician. The Powerstick is a class 1 device requiring a 230 V / 50 Hz power connection with earth contact. - Page 6 Never open the housing. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Do not expose the Powerstick to rain, and avoid operating in envi- ronments below -5° C or above 40° C. Be aware of the possibility of condensation forming inside the housing due to rapid changes in temperature.

Page 8: Connectors
4.2 Connectors XLR connectors (1) The Powerstick should be connected with a standard symmetrically wired XLR cable. To connect the input signal to further devices, use the male XLR Loop thru connector. To obtain full power performance from the system, the signal source should be able to provide a minimum of 6 dBu distortion free output voltage. -

Powerstick 5 Operation Operation 5.1 Starting up The last settings are restored when the device is switched on. This also applies to the choice of the preset bank. When the start-up is completed, the system is in status mode. If the red Mute LED lights up depending on the previous setting, no signal is being transmitted. -
Page 11: Setting Level
Powerstick 5 Operation 5.3 Setting level Pressing the Mode button once selects the Level Mode, in which you can adjust the output volume in 3 dB steps. There are four settings available: +3 dB, 0 dB (standard), -3 dB and -6 dB. The setting is done by pressing the Set button. -
