Installation |
4.1 |
Floor monitor |
When using the DYNACORD AXM 12A as a floor monitor, make sure to:
•Place the speaker on a level, stable surface that is solid and secure.
•Route cables so that performers, production crew and audience members will not trip over the cables. Secure cables with wire ties or tape whenever possible.
The AXM 12A loudspeaker includes a 35 mm (1-3/8 in) stand mount to allow mounting on tripod stands or above a subwoofer. Make sure to:
•Check the specifications of the speaker stand to be certain it is capable of supporting the weight of the speaker.
•Check that the speaker stand is placed on a flat, stable surface and be sure to fully extend the legs of the stand. Do not try to make the stand “taller” and compromise its structural integrity.
•Route cables and position the stand so that performers, production crew and audience members will not trip over the stand or cables and pull the speaker system over. Secure cables with wire ties or tape whenever possible.
•Do not attempt to suspend more than one speaker on a stand designed for a single speaker.
•Unless you are confident that you can safely handle lifting the weight of the speaker onto the stand, ask another person to help you place it.

|
may be used. Connect the device only to a mains network, which corresponds to the |
|
requirements indicated on the type plate. |

|
Electronically balanced INPUT 1/2 MIC/LINE for the connection of a line level signal source (such as mixer etc.) or a microphone. Phantom power can be enabled (see menu item Phantom 1 or 2 in section Menu, page 12) if a condenser microphone is being used. Establishing a connection is possible via TRS or XLR-type plugs. Whenever possible, balanced signal feed is always preferable to guard against potential noise or HF-interference.

used. |

5.3.1 |
Thru output |
|
The THRU output socket is connected in parallel to INPUT 1, it is used for “carrying through” |
|
the pre-fader input signal to additional powered loudspeaker or subwoofer. |
5.3.2 |
Mix output |
The post-fader audio signals of INPUT 1, INPUT 2 and INPUT 3 are mixed and passed to MIX OUT. The ratio of the input signals changes when the level controls INPUT 1, 2 or 3 are adjusted. This feature allows the loudspeaker to act as a basic three-channel mixer that can send the mix to another loudspeaker via the MIX OUT socket.
This output is laid out in GND-SENSING technology, a special pin assignment of the output socket, offering all advantages of the balanced signal transmission, but lets you also connect monaural plugs without a problem.
