4. General Instructions for Using Speakers
4.4.
Mounting the speakers
Mounting the speakers
Mounting the speakersMounting the speakers
To prevent injury, the speakers must be securely placed on the floor or secured to the wall according to the instructions on page 17 (Mounting Instructions for Speakers). Please note
Warning
that speakers can move as a result of vibrations. To prevent them from falling from their mounted position, they must be secured properly. If the weight of the speaker exceeds 20 kg then it is necessary for two people to carry it.
Speakers may only be suspended or mounted to walls or ceilings by qualified personnel. The speakers must be hung by using at least two of the designated flying points. The same applies when lifting and aligning the speakers.
Never use signal cables or power cords for suspending, aligning or securing the systems. When laying the connecting cables, make sure that nobody can trip.
Never hang more than two speakers under one another without using the designated Kling & Freitag rigging equipment.
Ensure that all installation connections comply with the applicable safety guidelines and that the size and strength are sufficient. Further instructions are in our user's manual for assembly equipment and in the general safety instructions for speakers and assembly equipment.
Warning
For mobile and fixed installations, use only rigging equipment from KLING & FREITAG. Make sure to observe the included safety and mounting instructions for loudspeakers and accessories.
Speakers and rigging equipment must be visually examined at regular intervals. If there are signs of wear, they must be replaced immediately. Furthermore, screwed connections of supporting parts must be checked routinely.
Protecting the speakers / avoiding fire hazard
Protecting the speakers / avoiding fire hazard
Protecting the speakers / avoiding fire hazardProtecting the speakers / avoiding fire hazard
In general, audio signals should not be overdriven. This may be caused by mixing consoles, equalizers, effect equipment, etc. and should be indicated on this equipment. When a power amplifier is overloaded at the output (clipping), then the amplifier should activate a clipping warning signal. Power amplifiers can also be overloaded at the input circuit with­out the amplifier signalling the clipping, i.e. when there is not sufficient headroom in the input circuit. We, therefore, recommend turning up the power amplifiers all the way and adjusting the level before the power amplifier in order to avoid overloading the input cir­cuit. In any case, the signal must be reduced as soon as it sounds unnaturally distorted.
To protect the speakers from being destroyed and to avoid fire hazard, they should only be operated with professional power amplifiers with the following specifications:
Integrated or preceding subsonic filter (approx. 30 Hz, min. 12 dB / octave)
integrated clipping limiter

If you wish to use a speaker with a power amplifier which does not fulfil these specifica­tions, then the speaker should be controlled using a Kling & Freitag system controller with limiter function. This is the only way overloading and the risk of fire can be avoided. The results of such a power amplifier defect cannot be avoided by the controller.

Damage caused by the speakers' magnetic fieldsDamage caused by the speakers' magnetic fields
Speakers are permanently surrounded by a magnetic field even when they are not operat­ing. Therefore, during transport and placement of the speakers, it is important to ensure that there is always approx. 1 m between the speakers and magnetic data media and computer/video monitors.

6. Important Notes for the Options ‘Outdoor’ and ‘Installation’
6.6.
Speakers with the option ‘Outdoor Mobile’ and ‘Outdoor Installation’ have been opti-mised for outdoor use. They withstand temperature fluctuations in moderate climate zones and do not accumulate condensation water.
In order to guarantee the longevity and safety of the speakers, the speakers with the op-
Warning
tion ‘Outdoor’ must still be protected from direct effects of the weather.
They should be installed, for example, under a roof so that they also have sufficient protec­tion from driving rain from the side and direct sunlight.

7. Notes for Versions with ‘100V’ Option
7.7.
Kling & Freitag speakers with ‘100V’ option are fitted with high-quality toroidal trans-formers. This serves to minimize loss of sound. Highly professional sound reinforcement results can be achieved using 100 V Kling & Freitag speakers.
7.1 Reasons for choosing Speakers with 100 V Transformers
Reduction in conduction loss.
Easy installation of a loudspeaker network due to simple parallel wiring.
Important

ImportantImportant
The sum of the output power of the individual speakers (stated as VA = W) must not exceed the output power of the 100 V amplifier.
Speakers are galvanically isolated.
Speakers can be integrated into existing 100 V systems.

9. Coverage Patterns of the CA Speakers
9.9.
The mid-high systems can be operated in a vertical or horizontal (i.e. as a stage monitor) position. The cover­age pattern of the speakers can be adapted to special needs by a 90° rotatable horn.
The table below shows the coverage angles of a standing speaker: To determine the coverage pattern of the high frequency horn, shine a flashlight through the front covering at the level of the horn. You will find a silver stripe that determines the position and coverage angles of the horn.

To turn the horn, follow these steps:To turn the horn, follow these steps:
1. Remove the four grille mounting screws on the top and bottom of the speakers with a 3 mm Allen key and remove the grille from the speaker enclosure.
2. Remove the screws from the high frequency horn (also using a 3 mm Allen key). Loosen the high fre- quency horn by using both hands, palms to the outside, to grasp into the horn and lift the horn with even pressure from the palms of your hands towards the outside. Should the horn adhere to the foam rubber attached below, release it using a screwdriver or something similar to gently lever it up.
3. Rotate the horn 90° and screw the horn on tightly again (do not force it!).
4. Screw the grille on tightly.
If the coverage angle needs to be changed often, make sure that the horn is not always rotated in the same direction, as the connecting cables, when twisted, may cause the contacts of the driver to become loose.

To simulate the correct alignment of the speakers beforehand, there are various programs such as ‘Ease’ or ‘Ulysses’. The Kling & Freitag speaker system data is available for download on our website www.kling­freitag.de.
The following graphics will assist in making a rough estimate as to the distance range of full-range systems. The graphics only take into consideration the sum of the direct sound and not the influence of the room. Because of this there can, in some cases, be noticeable deviation.

11. Wiring
11.11.
The speaker is equipped with two parallel Speakon connectors.
Make sure that all units are switched off and all controls are turned down before connecting your CA systems.
We recommend the use of high-quality speaker cables provided by KLING & FREITAG.
For connections to the power amplifier inputs, please use 2-pin shielded microphone cable with high-
quality connectors.
Avoid ground loops (see chapter 11.2)
Please pay attention to the respective pin diagrams in this manual!
Make sure that the +/- polarity of the speakers at the amplifier is correct. When simultaneously using
power amplifiers from different manufacturers, be sure to use the correct specific pin configuration. It may be necessary to modify the pin configuration on the power amplifiers or on the connectors leading to them.
Upon completing the wiring, ensure that the connected speaker channels are working in phase. To do so, use i.e. a phase checker. A phase error can also be recognized when the connected channels are used

11.2 Avoiding Ground Loops
11.2.1 What is a Ground Loop?
Every component of a P.A. or Hi-Fi System has its own internal 0 V reference (ground). This point is often con­nected to the protective earth connector (PE / Ground). If two or more units are connected to one another with a line level audio cable, there may be a ground connection through the ground of the power supply cable (yellow-green) as well as through the shielding of the audio cable. The voltage difference between these two ground points causes audible interference to come from the speaker
11.2.2 Avoiding Ground Loops
If there is a loud humming or buzzing after the CA System has been connected, then check that a "ground loop" has not been built into the system. Some power amplifiers and system controllers are equipped with a "Ground Lift" switch. Set these switches to the "Lift" position one after the other. If the noise is still audible, check if,
1. the noise is caused by a ground loop before the power amplifiers / controllers (e.g. mixing console, ef- fects or equalizers).
2. the system or parts of the system are connected to an "unclean" power supply - meaning one, which is also running large motors, or lighting systems. An "unclean" supply voltage, electrostatic and elec­tromagnetic fields can cause a malfunction.
Please observe the following basic rules:

WarningWarning
When installing appliances that create strong electrostatic or electromagnetic fields (large transformers, switch-mode power supplies), maintain some distance from other audio appliances. In extreme cases, the only solution is to create a completely independent "audio ground"; in other cases, it is sufficient to con­nect a filter in front of the audio equipment.
with power cables with PE connectors.
Use high-quality cables with good shielding.
The point of ground for all connected components should merge at one central point.
The power connections should lead out in a radial manner from one point and not be linked from one unit to the next.

12.1 Operating the Systems without K&F System Controller
The full-range systems can be used alone or in conjunction with a K&F subwoofer with integrated crossover (e.g. SW 112-XO / SW 115D-XO SW 115E-XO or SW 118E-XO). In this mode of operation the crossover limits the subwoofer's frequency range.
To protect the speakers from being destroyed and to avoid fire hazard, they should

12.2 Operations with K&F System Controller
For optimal performance and operating safety we recommend using a K&F system controller. Instructions for use, connecting diagrams and detailed descriptions of the latest controller models ‘CD 24’ and ‘CD 44’ you can find in the corresponding user’s manuals.
13.
13. Operating the Speakers
13.13.
Switch off all equipment and turn down all level controls.
Wire your CA systems.
Pay attention to the user’s manuals of your power amplifiers.
Upon completing the wiring, ensure that the connected speaker channels are working in phase. To do so,
use i.e. a phase checker. A phase error can also be recognized when the connected channels are used simultaneously. During simultaneous use the bass frequencies become notably quieter or the mid­frequencies such as voices cannot be located.
Now switch on the peripheral equipment first (mixing console, effects etc.), followed by the K&F system controller, if used, and the power amplifiers. Always use the before mentioned switching order. Other­wise switching noises may damage the system.
If there is interference, turn off all appliances in the reverse order and check all cable connections.
Successively turn up the individual power amplifier channels and send a signal with low volume to the
system. Check to see if the desired signals are applied to the intended speakers and make sure there is no interference. Make sure everything works properly, i.e. if the signals come from the correct speaker paths (high signals from the tweeters, bass signals from the bass speaker). Your system should now be ready for operation.
Turning down the input level controls may not always prevent distortions in the input section of the pow- er amplifier, especially if this section has a relatively low headroom. A clipping signal may not be displayed by the clipping indicator then. To prevent signal interruptions from protection circuits or damages to the speakers, turn the level controls of the power amplifier to the maximum position, if possible. The output level of the mixing console or the controller should be set to a level that doesn't overload the power am­plifiers.
When turning off the system, the input controls for the power amplifiers should be turned down first followed by the power switches of the amplifiers. After that, the other appliances can be turned off.
The crossovers of the CA systems are equipped with protection circuits for the high frequency driver and the crossover itself. These circuits cut off the signal current when highly overloaded. If the high speaker turns off, reduce the volume. After a few seconds, it will turn back on automatically.

15. Touching Up Damage to Paint / Changing the Front Foam
15.15.
Although the PU structured paint used by KLING & FREITAG is impact proof and extremely resistant, we rec­ommend using protective coverings or cases to help avoid damaging the paint during i.e. continuous mobile use. If paint damage occurs despite these precautions, it can be touched up by using commercial acrylic paint in the appropriate RAL colour of the speaker.
To replace the filter foam, send the front grille incl. foam to KLING & FREITAG GmbH. Upon payment for ex­penses, the grille with the new covering will be returned.

All KLING & FREITAG products are plain business-to-business (B2B) products. KLING & FREITAG products la­belled with a waste bin sign have thus to be disposed of by KLING & FREITAG GmbH alone. Please call KLING & FREITAG at the number stated below if you have a KLING & FREITAG product to be disposed of. We will offer you a straightforward and professional disposal with no costs involved.
If there is no waste bin sign on one of your KLING & FREITAG products, because it has been sold before 24 March 2006, then by law the owner is in charge of the disposal. In this case we will be happy to assist and offer you proper ways of disposal.

Explanation: With the ElektroG (law relating to electrical and electronic equipment and ap­pliances) we have complied with the EU-directive on waste electrical and electronic equip­ment (WEEE, 2002/96/EC).
E From 03/24/2006 onwards KLING & FREITAG GMBH has thus labelled all products men­tioned in the WEEE with a sign with a crossed out waste bin and a white bar below. This sign indicates that the disposal as domestic waste is prohibited and that the product has been put into circulation on 03/24/2006 at the earliest.
KLING & FREITAG GMBH has been legally registered as a manufacturer with the German registration office EAR. Our WEEE registration number is: DE64110372.
For the German Registration office EAR we have accredited that our products are soleB2B products.
19.2 EU, Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein
It is not allowed to dispose of used electrical equipment as domestic waste.
From 08/13/2005 onwards KLING & FREITAG GMBH has thus labelled all products for EU­Member countries as well as Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein (except Germany) men­tioned in the WEEE with a sign with a crossed out waste bin and a white bar below.
Unfortunately the European directive WEEE has been complied with implementing different national provi­sions of law throughout all member countries, which makes it impossible for us to offer consistent solutions for the disposal throughout Europe.
E This sign indicates that the disposal on domestic waste is prohibited and that the product has been put into circulation on 08/13/2005 at the earliest.
Responsible for complying with these provisions of law is the local distributor (importer) of each country.
For proper disposal of used products in accordance with these local provisions in the mentioned countries of the European Union (except Germany) please ask your local dealer or the local authorities.
19.3 All other Countries
For proper disposal of used products in accordance with local provisions in other than the above mentioned countries please ask your local dealer or the local authorities.
