INTRODUCTION
For portable live sound applications, or fixed installations in almost any type of venue, the Event Line Arrays have
been designed to provide exceptional sound, steadfast reliability and value beyond comparison.
Also, the Event Line Arrays incorporate high frequency waveguides designed with the same technology as the aero
series. The Event series is composed of event 208A and event 210A, the monitor event M210A and the subwoofer event
218A, to provide a complete solution for all your Events.

ON / OFF
A sound system should be switched on
sequentially. Switch on the self-powered units last
in your sound system (switch on the subwoofer
before the mid-high system). Switch on the sound
sources such as CD players or turntables, then the
mixer, then the processors, and finally the selfpowered unit. If you have several units, it is
recommended that you switch them on
sequentially one at a time.
Follow the inverse order when switching off,
turning self-powered units off before any other
element in the sound system.
Disconnect the device by removing the mains
connector from the mains socket. The mains
connector and mains socket must always be freely
accessible and never covered or blocked in any
way.
The models use a power cable equipped with
a Neutrik PowerCon NC3FCA connector. Power
can be daisy chained via the NC3FCB output
connector (see details on product label).
IMPORTANT: Do not disconnect the unit
while in use.
Ensure that the device is disconnected from
the mains by observing that the ON LED is turned
off. Please note that the ON LED can stay on for
several seconds after the mains power has been
disconnected.
Normally it is enough just to let the unit cool
down after you have corrected the problem so that
the system functions properly again.
Keep grilles clean and dust-free.
Air circulates from the bottom to the top of the
amplifier.
Heatsink
Heatsink of event 218A amplifier
Low mains voltage
If mains voltage falls below the shutdown
voltage for the unit, it will stop playing. When
acceptable levels are regained, the unit will switch
back on automatically.
Overload indicator
This device has an indicator (LIMIT LED) that
lights when the signal is excessive.
The indicator should not be lit continuously.
This distorts the signal (quickly fatiguing your ears)
and may damage the speakers. Therefore, it is
recommended that you never work with this LED
on; at most it should blink only occasionally.
Equalisation
The unit does not need extreme settings of
equalisation to produce quality sound. Avoid high
levels of gain on the equalisers. Gain values above
+3 dB on a console’s EQ are not recommended.
Overheating
This equipment does not normally overheat
during normal conditions of use. When overheating
occurs, the unit protects itself. You should then
find out why and if necessary contact an
authorised dealer for technical assistance.
Therefore the current consumed by a 115V
version is double the 230V version to achieve the
same acoustic power level.
