FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (FCC) STATEMENT This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
The AX800A NEO is processed by 40bit, floating point CORE2 DSP implementing FIR filters for a speakers optimal eq and phase alignment, it is powered by high efficient CLASS D amplifier modules, with a PFC regulated switch mode circuit for universal supply allowing the maximum output power for any mains supply variation.
Powercon® NAC3FCB power output connector (grey). This is connected in parallel with the MAINS ~ / IN, it is suited to link the supply of a maximum of further 3 AX800A NEO loudspeakers. WARNING! In the case of product failure or fuse replacement, disconnect the unit completely from the mains power.

Fly bar suspension and angle setup (centre of gravity) KPTAX800 FLY BAR FOR FLOWN ARRAY The figure at the side shows where the normal centre of gravity is with one box or several boxes arranged in a line. Usually the boxes are arranged to make an arc for the best coverage of the audience, so the center of gravity moves backward.
FLY BARS AND ACCESSORIES KPTAX800 FLY BAR AND ACCESSORIES The AX800A systems are built to allow the suspension of array with variable shape and STRAIGHT SHACKLE 16mm dimensions. Thanks to a suspension mechanism IDENTIFICATION AND designed to be functional, flexible and safe, each DATA LABEL system must be suspended or stacked using the KPTAX800 or KPTAX800L fly bar.
