ATOM10A/12A/15A input setting
1 - Connect the loudspeaker to the mains via IEC plug / 2-pin + earth. Leave the power switch (2) in the
OFF position.
2 - Set all LEVEL potentiometers (8 and 9) to the -∞ position.
3 - Connect your microphone or line level source or both. L'entrée ligne est accessible par le branchement
The line input can be accessed via a 3-pin 6.35 mm (TRS) jack, RCA LINE IN or AUX input. To acces to the microphone preamplifier, use the XRL plug
4 - Switch on the line level source.
5 - Switch on the ATOM speaker.
6 - While you are speaking in a microphone or an audio signal is being played from your line-level source,
turn the input level knob (s) until the display shows "Limit Signal", then turn it down just below that level.
7 - If you use a microphone, be careful not to stand too close to the speaker as this may result in
feedback. If you do not use both inputs, it is recommended that you leave the level knob on the unused input at the -∞ position to prevent noise from entering the signal circuit.

This menu appears when the subwoofer is initialized and allows you to adjust the subwooer's amplification level. It is not necessary to press the button to make this setting. The value varies from MUTE (no amplification) to +10dB.
This menu allows you to choose the behavior of the cabinet according to how it is positioned.
-NORMAL : Choose this option when using the cabinet in front
of the sound system.
-ENFORCE :Choose this option when using the cabinet in front
of the sound system.
This menu allows you to optimize the response of ATOM15S and ATOM18S when used alone or in groups.
-NORMAL : Choose this option when using the subwoofer in
nongroup mode.
-CARDIOID : Choose this option for a cardioid effect with the
pedestals in grouped mode.
-ENDFIRE : Choose this option when using two subwoofers in
longitudinal radiation one behind the other.
This menu allows you to add a delay time to the subwoofer to align it over time. The value of the delay is expressed in metres. By default no delay time is applied.
This menu allows you to reverse the polarity of the sum of the signals present at the input..
This menu is used to set the upper limit of the frequency range of the subwoofer. The optimum setting is the minimum value of the frequency range correctly reproduced by the full range speakers. Among the available values for this setting you will find each of the ATOM series full range speakers.
This menu is used to set the low limit of the frequency range sent to outputs 1 and 2.

10.1 - Balanced
The COMBO sockets are symetrical. This type of connectors allows you to transmit a signal over long runs of cables without altering its quality, that is why we recommend to use symetrical signals. The figures opposite describe the balanced wiring of the XLR or Jack 6.35 plugs.
