7.2.3 System protection
System protection limiters indicate when a system is exceeding recommended usage by showing:
– PK
– CLIP
– LIMITER
– AMP HOT!
i
Notice!
Older firmware versions show PEAK instead of PK.
PK
PK indicates that the audio source signal to the loudspeaker reached the maximum input level, also
called PEAK limit: -3 dB. This may result in a clipped signal causing audio distortion and potential
damage to the equipment.
If PK is shown:
4 Reduce the INPUTGAIN or the audio source signal.
If PK stays active for more than 1 second, the system shows CLIP.
CLIP
CLIP indicates that the audio source signal exceeded the maximum input level and is producing audio
distortion. This results in rough and harsh audio output and can cause damage to the equipment.
If CLIP is shown:
4 Reduce the INPUTGAIN and/or the audio source signal until CLIP stops showing.
LIMITER
LIMITER protects the loudspeaker from short-term peaks and long-term overload, which can cause
distortion. When LIMITER is displayed on the screen, the limiter is active.
If the LIMITER indication is shown often or continuously:

extended periods of feedback can damage hearing and equipment.
Available options for this selection are OFF and ON.
Reducing feedback
To reduce feedback:
1. Set the loudspeaker and microphone or instrument according to your performance. Follow
appropriate microphone placement and use practices:
– Do not place the microphone directly in front of the loudspeaker. Refer to the user manual of
your microphone to know the pickup and rejection patterns of your microphone.
– Avoid placing music stands, tablets, or other large flat objects near the microphone such
that they can cause audio reflections into the microphone.
– Use proper microphone technique when speaking, singing or placing by an instrument to
avoid using excessive input gain. For example, hold the microphone close to your mouth
when performing.
– Engage appropriate input channel PRESET for your application: LOWCUT80Hz,
LOWCUT120Hz, VOCALMIC, VOICEFILTER, SPEECH, ACOUSTICGUITAR, etc. Refer

INPUT control adjustments
Caution is advised when adjusting the INPUTLEVEL and EQ. Usually minor changes are sufficient to
produce the best results in the overall sound.
To adjust the incoming sound:
– Set all EQ controls to 0dB or FLAT.
– Avoid setting the EQ controls to extreme positions.
– Use natural reproduction as a starting point.
– Rely on your musically trained ear.
INPUT LEVEL control
The INPUT LEVEL control adjusts the sensitivity of the incoming signals to the internal operation level
of the mixer.
To achieve a good signal input level:
1. Set the volume to MUTE using the MASTER VOLUME knob.
2. Press the input selection soft key and use the MASTER VOLUME knob to set the INPUT LEVEL
to MUTE.
3. Connect the sound source (microphone, instrument, etc) to the selected input.
4. Start the sound source at the highest volume level to be expected. Sing or speak as loudly as
possible directly (close up) into the microphone.
5. While playing the sound source or singing into the microphone:
– Increase the INPUTLEVEL by selecting the input channel using the input selection soft key
and using the MASTER VOLUME knob, so that during the loudest part, the PK does not
show. Press the input selection soft key again to deselect the input channel.
– Increase the MASTER VOLUME until you get the required output from the loudspeaker.
This is the basic channel setting.
If further adjustments to the EQ setting of the channel are necessary, perform these steps again.

Table8.2: Inputs that enable COMP control
4 Use the COMP control to adjust the compressor threshold and the compression ratio
simultaneously.
Adjusting the COMP control from 0 to 100 will result in the following:
– The gain below the threshold will increase from 0dB to +6dB.
– The compression ratio will increase from 1:1 to 8:1.
– The compressor will reduce the dynamic range of the audio signal proportional to the compressor
setting.
Once the signal exceeds a certain threshold, the signal gets compressed. Major input level changes
result in minor output level changes. Narrowing the dynamic range often allows for easier recording or
mixing of the audio signal. It is recommended to start with low to moderate levels of compression (25
- 40) and increase slowly if necessary.

TREBLE/MID/BASS controls
The EQ section of the input channel allows for a broad difference in the shaping of the incoming audio
signal within three frequency bands:
– TREBLE control - provides cymbals and vocals with more treble for a more transparent sound.
– MID control - increasing this level provides higher output in the vocal range, reducing this level
can help reduce acoustical feedback.
– BASS control - adds more “punch” to the sound of a kick drum or adds “body” to the vocals.

10 Troubleshooting
Problem Possible cause Action
1. No sound Amplifier Verify all the electronics are on, the signal routing is
correct, the source is active; the volume is turned
up, no channels are muted, etc.
Correct/repair/replace as necessary. If there is still
no sound, the problem may be wiring.
Wiring Verify you have connected the correct cables to the
amplifier. Play something at a low level through the
amplifier. Connect a test loudspeaker in parallel
with the malfunctioning line. If the sound level is
gone or is very weak, the line has a short in it
(possibly a severe scrape, pinch, or a missed
connection). Using the test loudspeaker, move
down the line and test each connection/junction
until you find the problem and correct it. Observe
proper polarity.
2. Intermittent
output such as
crackling or
distortion
Faulty connection Check all connections at amplifier and loudspeakers
to ensure they are all clean and tight. If the problem
persists, check the wiring. See problem 1.
3. Constant noise
such as buzzing
hissing or
humming
Defective source or
other electronic device
If noise is present, but no program material is
playing, evaluate each component as necessary to
isolate the problem. Most likely there is a break in
the signal path.
Poor system grounding
or ground loop
Check and correct the system grounding, as
required.
4. No sound
produced with
microphone
connected to
line/mic inputs
Microphone requires
phantom power.
Ensure the microphone is connected to a line/mic
input. Ensure that PHANTOM is set to ON in this
channel. Phantom power is not available on line
