2.2 Quick Start
CAUTION:
After installing the system, first switch on the mixing console and position the mixer's master faders to
their minimum settings. That followed, switch on the PowerSub and use the master faders to adjust the
desired volume setting. Otherwise, high sound levels caused by unintentional playback of a program
source could be the result, which might cause hearing damage.
This Quick Start Manual outlines setup and operation of
the PowerSub 212 being used as subwoofer satellit system
connected to a DYNACORD CMS mixer.
1.
Place the active fullrange speakers, e.g. D 8A,
mounted on pole-mount stands to the left and to the
right. The height of the speakers should be set so
they are above the heads of the audience. This
ensures that sound levels at the front are not too
high, while still achieving sufficient intelligibility at
the back.
2.
Place the PowerSub 212 in the area between the sat-
ellite speakers and, using suitable XLR-type cables,
connect the satellites to MID/HIGH OUT L or MID/
HIGH OUT R on the rear panel of the PowerSub 212.
3.
Using suitable XLR-type cables connect the Master
Outputs of your mixing console, e.g. DYNACORD
CMS 1000, to LEFT LINE IN or RIGHT LINE IN of the
PowerSub 212. Position the master faders on the
mixer to their minimum setting. Now, switch on the
mixer.
4.
Connect the PowerSub 212 and the D 8A to the
mains outlet using the supplied mains cords. Plug
the connector into the locking MAINS IN socket. Use
the mains switch to power-up the PowerSub 212 and
the D 8A, the POWER LED lights green.
5.
Set the level control MASTER of the D 8A to 0dB.
8
6.
Set the level control VOLUME of the PowerSub 212
to 0dB and the Polarity switch PHASE to 0°.
7.
Connect an audio source, e.g. CD player, to a line
level input of the mixer, e.g. CMS 1000. Set all rotary
controls of the mixing console input channel to their
center position. Adjust the input channel's 'Gain'
control so that the Peak LED should not light at all or
blink only once in a while.
8.
Slowly raise channel fader and master faders on the
mixing console to the desired positions – i.e. volume
settings.
9.
If the reproduced sound asks for extreme accentua-
tion or lowering of the bass level, adjust the VOLUME
setting on the PowerSub 212.
10. Your system is now ready for operation. Individual
sound adjustments necessary can be made using the
controls of the mixer's corresponding input chan-
nels.
11. Now, have fun with your PowerSub system!
12. After use, first switch off the D 8A, then the Power-
Sub and then the mixing console, so that distracting
power-off noise will not occur. When using a DYNA-
CORD CMS mixer, no power-off noise will be output
from the 'Master Outputs'. This allows switching off
the mixer first without a problem.
