Operation
Battery
Charge the battery for at least 10 hours before the first use of the PA920, or the
PA920PS. Simply plug the power cord into an AC outlet and set the battery switch
to the ON position. The charging indicator will flash until fully charged, then it will
stay green. The unit can be used while it is plugged in for charging.
There are LED indicators above the main power switch to show AC Power and Bat-

age, rather than stored with a low battery. This will prolong battery life. Storing more than 30 days
without recharging will deteriorate the battery.
Digital Master Volume Control
When the main power switch is turned on, the Digital Master Volume Control is
at the lowest level to prevent accidental damage to the amplifier or internal speakers.
The volume can be controlled in two ways; using the “Up” “Down” buttons on the
mixer panel or using the infrared Master Volume remote control. The Master volume
control has 5 green LED indicators to show the Master volume level and a one red
LED for speaker mute. When Mute is turned ON the red LED will lit and the green
LEDs will turn o. While on Mute, all sound will cut o to the PA920PS speaker
and connected speaker. The Master volume remote control must be used in front
of the speaker as the sensor is behind the speaker grille.
Recommended Set-up Procedure
Ideally the master volume should be at maximum volume before the wireless receiver volume is
adjusted to the desired loudness. Since there are always at least two (2) volume controls to contend
with, it is suggested that prior to turning the power on for the receiver, its volume control be set at
“10 o’clock”.
tery Status. When the unit is turned on, the one on the left will light “red”
when the battery has a low charge. the ones on the right will glow “green”
to show partial charge, full charge or if operating on A/C power.
It is recommended that the battery be recharged after several hours of us-

There are two (2) LEDs on the receiver; RF reception (green) and AF Audio reception (blue). There are
also LEDs on the front of the speaker above the grille making it easy to see if the receiver is working properly.
A red LED indicates RF (radio frequency) from the transmitter/mic while an amber LED indicates audio.
The green LED shows power status for the PA system.

Feedback
Feedback is a shrill screeching sound produced by the speaker system when a microphone is being
used too close to the front of the speaker. The microphone picks up the sound of the speaker system
and it becomes reamplified. It is a self-sustaining loop which can damage the system if allowed to
continue, not to mention the annoyance caused to persons nearby. Always stand 4 to 6 feet from the
speaker to minimize the opportunity for feedback from the speaker system.

Powered Companion Speaker PA919PS
The PA920PS works with the M319 and Q319 microphones. The Powered Companion PA has the same
amplifier, power supply and speaker compliment as the full featured PA920. It does not have the mixer
panel because it can be controlled by the PowerPro PA920.
With the integral 16-channel selectable wireless UHF receiver, it can function as a stand alone PA speaker
when using a Q319 Handheld microphone or the M319 Beltpack transmitter with a LM319, or HBM319
microphone. Although there are 5 LEDs on the front of the PA920PS only 3 lights function on this unit
because there is only one receiver. The red LED indicates RF, the amber LED is for audio, and the green
LED indicates power On.
Full Wireless Operation
Any audio from the PA920 can be transmitted to the PA920PS without wiring. There is no limit on the
number of PA920PS speakers that can be used with the PA920 within a range of 300 feet.
Audio Line Buss
When linking one PA920PS to the PowerPro PA920 via Line In, a XLR cable is connected to Audio Line
Out XLR connector on the PA920. The other end is connected to Line In XLR on the Powered Compan-
ion Speaker. The Master Volume Control on the Audio Line panel of the master will adjust the PowerPro
PA920 as well as all the Powered or Passive Companion Speakers, however the loudness needs to be
adjusted via the Master Volume Control on the PA920PS as well.
Tone Controls
The separate base and treble controls provide a wide range of adjustment for increasing or decreasing
either the bass or treble from “flat” frequency response. The center or “12 o’clock” position is flat.
Speaker out
Two 1/4” phone jacks for Switched and unswitched speaker output signals to connect to external speak-
ers. Switched output disengages main speaker, unswitched output divides output between main speaker
