Section 2: Precautions
!
WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT EXPOSE THIS EQUIPMENT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
RISQUE DE CHOC ELECTRIQUE NE PAS OUVRIR
The EON 210P PA system covered by this manual is not intended for use in high
moisture environments. Moisture can damage the speaker cone and surround and cause
corrosion of electrical contacts and metal parts. Avoid exposing the speakers to direct
moisture. Keep speakers out of extended or intense direct sunlight. The driver suspension
will prematurely dry out and nished surfaces may be degraded by long-term exposure
to intense ultra-violet (UV) light. The EON 210P PA system can generate considerable
energy. When placed on a slippery surface such as polished wood or linoleum, the
speaker may move due to its acoustical energy output. Precautions should be taken to
assure that the speaker does not fall off a stage or table on which it is placed.
Stand Mounting Safety Precautions
The EON 210P speakers contain a 36 mm receptacle cup to allow mounting on tripod stands or on a pole over
subwoofers. When using stands or poles, be sure to observe the following precautions:
• Check the stand or pole specication to be certain the device is designed to support the weight of the
speaker. Observe all safety precautions specied by the manufacturer.
• Always verify that the stand (or subwoofer/pole) is placed on a at, level and stable surface and
be sure to fully extend the legs of tripod type stands. Position the stand so that the legs do not
present a trip hazard.
• Route cables so that performers, production crew, and audience will not trip and topple the
speakers over.
• Inspect the stand (or pole and associated hardware) before each use and do not use equipment with
worn, damaged or missing parts.
• Do not attempt to place more than one EON 210P series speaker on a stand or pole.
• Always be cautious in windy, outdoor conditions. It may be necessary to place additional weight (i.e.
sandbags) on the base of the stand to improve stability. Avoid attaching banners or similar items to
any part of a speaker system. Such attachments could act as a sail and topple the system.
• Unless you are condent that you can handle the weight of the speaker, ask another person to help
you get it onto the tripod stand or pole.
Hearing Damage, Prolonged Exposure To Excessive SPL
The EON 210P system is capable of generating sound pressure levels (SPL) sufcient to cause permanent
hearing damage to performers, production crew and audience members. Caution should be taken to avoid
prolonged exposure to SPL in excess of 90 dB.

Section 4: The EON 210P PA System Power Amplier
!
AC Power Requirements
The EON 210P is equipped with a Crown
and requires appropriate AC power. Before plugging the Mixer Module into an outlet ensure that it is able to
provide appropriate AC power.
A robust AC supply is necessary for maximum performance. If the supply is too weak the bass performance may
be affected and if it sags (drops) too much the system may self-mute to protect itself. As soon as the appropriate
AC supply is restored it will continue to operate. Plugging multiple systems into the same outlet and long
extension cord runs may affect the AC supply to the system.
®
Class D power amplier and loudspeaker specic DSP electronics
CAUTION
In compliance with safety agency criteria and proper system operation, it is critical that the
system installer observe all electrical safety practices at all times and provide proper earth
grounding for all AC Power connections.
Powering Up
The main power switch is located on the side of the mixer module where the AC cable attaches to the mixer.
Changing Voltage
Your EON 210P will typically be set at the factory to accommodate the power mains voltage in your area.
Before you set up your EON 210P for the rst time it is a good idea to verify that the setting of the selector is
appropriate for the power in your area. In the event that you do need to change the voltage:
• Make sure that the speaker is powered off and the AC (IEC connector)
is disconnected from the mixer module.
• Directly beside the male IEC connector on the mixer module is a red voltage selector.
Just slide the switch to the appropriate setting.
• Set the voltage selector switch to the 115V for (100-120V~) or 230V for (220-240V~)
range setting as required for your area.
• After having reconrmed that the correct voltage is selected,
reconnect the AC (IEC connector) and power the unit up.
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES OPERATE THE UNIT WITH THE WRONG VOLTAGE SELECTED.
DOING SO MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS DAMAGE TO YOUR PA SYSTEM WHICH WILL NOT BE COVERED
BY WARRANTY.
Operating Temperature
The design of the Crown amplier is such that it is very energy efcient and as a result does not get really hot. In
the rare event that it does get too hot it will automatically shut down to protect itself. When its temperature has
returned to within its operating range it will turn back on. A condition under which this may occur is when the
system is operated in very high ambient temperatures and the heat sink on the rear of the enclosure is in direct
sunlight. Always ensure adequate cooling and appropriate shade.

This part of the EON 210P system houses the mixing board and power amplier. You will connect all of the
microphones, musical instruments, external sound sources (like MP3 or CD players), headphones in addition to
any recording devices or additional speakers like a personal monitor, subwoofer or “Front of House” feed.
The Basics
While it looks complicated, the mixing board is actually a very simple device. A “mixing board” brings audio
sources “in” (through the inputs) and routes the signal to the outputs (MASTER VOLUME/SPEAKER OUTPUTS
or MONITOR OUTPUTS)). The mixer controls enable the user to affect the tone and/or volume in addition to
routing the signal and adding effects to individual input sources. The abundance of knobs is simply due to the
repetitive nature of the design.
Let’s look at the “inputs” rst:
AUDIO INPUTS
The EON 210P has 8 inputs: 4 mono inputs and 2 stereo inputs.
All of the inputs will route to the speakers and to the MONITOR OUTPUT SECTION.
MONO MIC/LINE INPUTS
Moving from left to right there are 4 identical input strips comprised of (from top to bottom) a “peak LED”,
a combination input connector, MIC/LINE selector, Treble and Bass controls, a Reverb send and a channel
volume control.

STEREO INPUTS
The EON 210P has two stereo inputs and these are used primarily for MP3 or CD players but could be used
with the stereo output of an electronic keyboard, instrument pre-amp or processor, or an electronic drum
machine. The inputs labeled “STEREO IN 5/6” offer the option of using ¼" phone plugs or RCA plugs and this
channel has a volume control. The input labeled “STEREO IN 7/8” is a 3.5 mm stereo input of the type typically
found on personal music players. This input does not have a volume control as personal music players usually
have a “volume control” built into the unit. This is the best way to control the volume of the unit plugged into
this input.

them somewhere…The EON 210P has 3 stereo pairs of outputs:
1. LEFT/RIGHT speaker outputs - These outputs should only be
connected to the EON 210P speakers and under no condition
should they be connected to the input of another electronic device.
These outputs carry power and as such could damage the electronic
device. Only use “unshielded” speaker cables (like the cables
provided with your EON 210P).
2. “MONITOR OUTPUTS”
These outputs allow you to route the stereo mixer signal to another
destination like a recording device, personal monitor, subwoofer
or to another PA system (Front of House). Depending on the input
connectors of the destination device, you can use either the ¼" phone
jacks or the RCA jacks.
a. “MONITOR OUTPUT VOLUME”
This controls the overall volume of the MONITOR OUTPUT.
3. HEADPHONE OUTPUT
This output allows the user to listen to the main output the EON 210P mixer.
Headphones used will require a 3.5 mm stereo plug.
MASTER VOLUME and “PEAK LED LADDER”
Your EON 210P is equipped with a “Master Volume” that controls the overall
output volume of the system and a 5 light “Peak LED Ladder” that gives you
a visual display of how much power you are using (think of the speedometer
on your car). The red or top LED on the ladder indicates that you are approaching
the maximum output by blinking or, when it stays on constantly, indicates you
have reached the maximum output. As a frame of reference if a channel volume
is on “7” and the “MASTER VOLUME” is on “7” you will have reached the
maximum output before distortion is audible.

EFFECT MENU
Your EON 210P is equipped with digital multi-effects designed to enhance instruments or vocals. There are
four effects available on the EON 210P.
An effect on a vocal or instrument can create a very natural sense of space for the listener and is great fun for
the performer. Used correctly, effects enhance a voice or instrument in a very musical way but, when used to
excess, they can make the music or voice less intelligible and unnatural. As a basic place to start turn the
EFFECT control to “5” on the appropriate channel. Start with the EFX RETURN on “5” and then select an effect
that is suitable for your application. If there is too much effect then turn down the EFX RETURN to suit your taste.

Section 7: Reference
Balanced vs. Unbalanced Lines
Your EON 210P PA system can accept either type of input. There are two basic types of audio system
interconnections for audio signals: Balanced and Unbalanced.
Balanced Lines
In audio, a balanced line is a three-conductor system in which the two signal wires carry an equal, but opposite
voltage with respect to the ground wire. The ground wire acts only as a shield and does not carry any audio
signal current. Outside interference (such as RFI - Radio Frequency Interference) is either shielded from the
internal signal conductor, or if it gets into the cable is cancelled out by the opposite signals at the receiving end.
Balanced connections are preferred for long cable runs.
Unbalanced Lines
Unbalanced cable is a two-wire system where the shield (ground wire) acts as one of the current carrying
signal conductors. The center conductor enclosed by the shield is commonly known as the “hot” conductor.
Unbalanced audio cables do not reject noise as well as balanced lines. Unbalanced lines are typical in home
hi- type systems and on the outputs of electronic musical instruments. These work well if the distance between
the components is short, the signal level is relatively high and all of the electronics used in the system are
plugged into the same AC service.

Section 9: Trouble Shooting
Symptom Likely Cause What to do
Make sure that the AC cord is properly seated into the AC receptacle
No Power
Volume’s are turned down
No sound
Mechanical connections
are loose
Bad Cables
Phantom Power is off
Input overload
Sound is distorted
both at the wall outlet and on the mixer. Make sure the AC switch is in
the "ON" position. If you are using an "AC Strip" check to see that it
is working properly.
Make sure both the mixer’s channel volume and master volume are
turned up. Double check to see if the source volume is turned up.
Check to see if the input to the mixer is properly seated.
Check the speaker connections to see if they plugged in all of
the way.
Your speaker cables may have been damaged. Inspect for any cuts
or crimps and if found, replace the cables.
If you are using a "Condenser" type microphone you will need to
activate the "Phantom Power" switch for the microphone to work.
If the "Peak LED Indicator" is ashing red or on constantly you may
be overloading the input. On channels 1-4 turn the channel volume
down and press the MIC/LINE switch. Slowly bring the volume up. If
the distortion is gone but you don't have enough volume, turn up the
master volume.
If you are using an external device like a personal music player or
electronic instrument try lowering the volume on that device.
Sound is thin
Sound is too boomy or dark
Hum or Buzz that increases
or decreases when the mixer
level controls are moved
Hum or Buzz
System is overloading
Too much treble Check the channel's "TREBLE" control and turn it to the "0" position.
Not enough bass Check the channel's "BASS" control and turn it to the "0" position.
Speakers not
connected properly
Effects levels may be too high Try turning down the MASTER EFFECTS RETURN.
Not enough treble Check the channel's "TREBLE" control and turn it to the "0" position.
Too much bass Check the channel's "BASS" control and turn it to the "0" position.
Improper A/C ground or faulty
equipment connected to
mixer input
Faulty cable between source
equipment and mixer
Improper A/C grounding,
ground loops
Excessively long unbalanced
cable run
Check the “SYSTEM LEVEL INDICATOR” LED’s and if the “LIMIT”
or red light at the top of the ladder is on constantly you may be
overdriving the system. Turn down the MASTER VOLUME.
Check the speaker connections to see if they plugged in all of the
way.
Disconnect or mute channels one at a time to isolate the
problem. Refer to the owner’s manual of the faulty equipment for
troubleshooting help.
Substitute a known-good cable for the suspected faulty cable.
Try using a ground lift adaptor. Connect all power cords to the
same power strip.
Try a shorter cable if possible, otherwise use a DI box to
convert the unbalanced signal to a balanced signal and use
the appropriate cabling.
Improper system gain structure
Reduce the INPUT level controls and increase the output level of
your source devices.
21
Symptom Likely Cause What to do
Noisy source device
Noise or hiss heard at outputs
Unused channel volumes
are up too high
Disconnect the devices that are connected to your mixer one at a
time. If the noise goes away, the problem is with
the source or the connecting cable.
Lower the channel volume on unused channels to “0”
Feedback
Headphone signal is weak
Microphones are too close
to the speakers
MONITOR OUTPUT
is turned down
Channel Input is too low Make sure that the channel input volume is turned up
Impedance mismatch
Speakers should be between the audience and the microphones in
order to avoid feedback.
Turn up the "monitor output volume" on the mixer
Your headphones have too high of an impedance.
Try a different set of headphones.
