1. General Safety Instructions for Speakers

Mounting the speakers

To prevent injury, this equipment must be securely placed on the floor or secured to the wall according to the mounting instructions on page Speakers

). Please note that speakers can move as a result of vibrations. To prevent

them from falling from their mounted position, they must be secured properly weight of the speaker exceeds 20 kg then it is necessary for two people to carry it

Speakers may only be mounted to wall and 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

For mobile and fixed installations, use only assembly equipment from KLING & FREITAG.

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

For mobile and fixed installations, use only assembly 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 / operating safety

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, they should only be operated with professional power amplifiers with a maximum rated power of 1400W@6Ω (equivalent 2100W@4Ω).

− If power amplifiers have power ratings lower than mentioned above, then it is impera- tive that a clipping limiter is used to protect the speaker even if it is used with a Kling & Freitag system controller.

Damage 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

Preventing hearing damage

To prevent the risk of hearing damage, avoid being too close to operating speakers, even if the volume level seems to be low enough. In general, volume levels over 90 dB

4. Rigging Instructions for Line 212 Systems

The speakers may only be mounted by trained specialised personnel with proof of their qualifications as a certified 'rigger'.

Please follow the accompanying instructions for speakers and assembly equipment.

Ensure that all connections are secured to prevent their detaching on their own and that

Warning

only admissible statically tested and sufficiently sized connecting devices, ropes and chains are used.

Pay attention to the required safety factors. Make sure to observe the included safety and mounting instructions.

A maximum load of 73 kg may be suspended from the two flying points of one Line 212 system. This means a maximum additional load of 36.5 kg on each ‘allsafe JUNGFALK’ flying point. This applies for both vertical (see details on this page) and horizontal suspension (see details on next page).

4.1 Vertical Suspension

The Line 212 System must always be mounted with two wire ropes or chains, which are independent of one another! Furthermore if individual or connected to one another, must be secured onto the ‘allsafe JUNGFALK’ flying track on the rear. This safety rope may be used for aligning the systems.

The safety rope must have a minimum length of 100 cm and must be attached so that, in case it falls, the height of the fall is kept to a minimum. A possible fall height of 20 cm may not be exceeded! With a higher fall height, the dynamic load of a fall could be inadmissibly high; potential risk of system crash.

The safety ropes of different systems must always come together at one point.

Each of the utilised separate lifting accessories (chains / wires / shackles) must be able to carry the 12-fold load of the total weight.

While installing, be sure that the system can swing in case a rigging point fails. With this in mind, the speaker must be mounted so that no people or objects are within the potential range of the swinging speakers.

The weight of the speaker hung below may not exceed 73 kg (this weight corresponds to the approx. weight of a SW 215E-SP).

The angle of the rope / chain to the top of the speaker mounted below may not exceed 45°.

, the systems, no matter

User's Manual LINE 212-6 / LINE 212-9

4.2 Horizontal Suspension

If a speaker unit consisting of several connected systems is to be flown and aligned, then the individual speakers must be attached to one another before connecting them to the ‘allsafe JUNGFALK’ Flying Track. Consult the provided illustration when doing so. For

Warning

the rear connection of the loudspeaker systems use the double stud fittings available from Kling & Freitag and a proven 1/2" shackle (alternative single stud fittings and 3/8" shackle). Pull the threaded bolt of the shackle with a torque of 10 Nm (hand-

tight with 200 mm long lever, e.g. screwdriver). Alternatively, you can use proven, high-strength shackles with a split pin. Only in this way can you ensure that the bolt will not

become loose.

The ‘allsafe JUNGFALK’ Flying Track can only support weights up to 73 kg. Therefore the load must be distributed on several flying tracks when suspending the systems.

For horizontal operations, the system is designed for a maximum array of 3 Line 212-6 systems. More of theses systems may not be flown below one another.

We recommend using the BGV C1 certified and type tested Click & Fly Rigging System for mounting the Line 212 systems (see the ‘Click & Fly for Line 212 / SW215E' user's manual).

Please pay attention to the following instructions for flown operations without the Click & Fly rigging system:

Wrong:

− The upper rigging points of the top speaker must carry the full load. Consequently, the permissible max. load of the top points is exceeded.

− The speakers are not secured by the additional safeties

Right:

− The load of the individual speakers is threaded through the bent continuous bracket. The load is, therefore, held by the bracket, and the speakers’ flying points consequently only have to carry the load of the corresponding speaker.

− The speakers are connected to one another on the rear. The suspension point is located on the connection of the two lower speakers. As a result, the load is distributed to both speakers.

7. Coverage Pattern of the Line 212 Systems

The Line 212 can be operated in a vertical or horizontal position. The coverage pattern of the speaker can be adapted to special needs by a 90° rotatable horn.

The following graphics demonstrate how to recognize how the built-in horn emits in 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.

7.1 Changing the Coverage Pattern

The front grille of the Line 212 is divided into two sections (except the version ‘Outdoor Installation’). Changing the coverage angle is possible by only removing the upper section of the grille. To turn the horn, follow these steps:

1) Remove the four grille mounting screws from the top on the sides of the speakers with a 3 mm Allen key and remove the grille from the speaker enclosure. It may be necessary to use a screwdriver in the middle of the top grille edge to pry up the grille. There is a groove in the grille in this position (under the locking profile) just for this purpose.

2) Remove the 6 screws from the high frequency horn (also using a 3 mm allen key). Loosen the high frequency 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. Never use a screwdriver or similar objects to reach behind the edge of the horn, as this could damage it.

3) Rotate the horn 90° and screw the horn on tightly again (do not force it!).

4) Screw the grille on tightly.

5) You will notice twelve fastening screws under the front foam of the 'Outdoor In-

stallation' version. Lift up the front foam carefully and loosen the screws with a screwdriver for cross-recessed screws. Remove the grille from the speaker enclosure. Continue with step 2).

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 may cause the contacts of the driver to become loose.

User's Manual LINE 212-6 / LINE 212-9

8. Mounting Instructions for Speakers

Mount the speakers securely. To avoid injury or damage, always be sure to mount the speakers securely so that they do not fall. Speakers, which are stacked, must be secured with securing straps. When laying the connecting cables, make sure that nobody can trip.

The stability of stacked systems (also valid for the use of stands and distance rods!) is

We recommend using the optionally available transport covers with castors when transporting and positioning the system. These covers have handles, which considerably simplify the carrying and stacking of the Line 212 Systems. We therefore recommend removing the covers after

the systems have been positioned. Always loosen the lower

catch first so that the cover does not fall over.

8.1 Proper Arrangement of the Loudspeakers

Be aware of the fact that the logical targeted alignment of this high quality speaker system can lead to a significant qualitative increase in the acoustic result. It is not possible to make generalities about the alignment of specific systems because the room has a substantial influence on the signal and the audible result.

As a rule, the mid- and high-transducers of loudspeakers should be mounted above the audience's face value, so that the sound distribution cannot be shadowed.

In many cases it is advisable to mount a loudspeaker higher, so that the sound will be distributed throughout the room more evenly. Low standing systems result in a greater difference in volume between front and back seats than higher standing systems.

Please note that this is only a general guideline and the best possible result may vary from room to room.

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.kling-freitag.de.

The following graphics will assist in making a rough estimate as to the distance range of speaker 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.

8.2 Arrayed Speaker Systems (Cluster)

If the loudspeakers are operated through the optional K&F C2 System Controller, we recommend to turn on the ‘Top Low Cut’ switch for clustered operation. Thus the frequency response for this application can be optimised (see also K&F C2 User's Manual).

If the Line 212 Systems are operated in a cluster without the C2 Controller (speakers are

set up directly next to one another), then lower the 'EQ LOW CUT' frequency as de-

scribed below!

EQ LOW CUT

Frequency 120Hz

Quality (Q) 0.55

Bandwidth (oct.) 2.35

Level -2.95dB

1. If several Line 212-6 with a horn coverage pattern of 65°h x 50°v are arranged on

one side (cluster / array), it is recommended for the Line 212-6 to have a horizontal array angle of 38.5° to one another (see fig. 2).

2. In a cluster comprised of a combination of the Line 212-6 with Line 212-9, we

recommend an array angle of 45° (see fig. 3).

3. With a rotated horn (Line 212-6 standing: 50°h x 65°v / Line 212-9 standing: 50°h

x 90°v), an array angle of 30° is recommended for both versions (see fig. 1).

Because increased interference effects occur when several 90° systems are arranged next to one another, the clustering of several Line 212-9 is only conditionally recommendable.

9. Operations with the K&F C2 Controller

The use of carefully adjusted filters (EQ) on the system plug-in cards enables the C2 Controller to optimise the feedback stability and the frequency response of the Line 212 System. We do not recommend operations without the C2 Controller.

Operating safety and maximum performance of the LINE 212 System can only be guaranteed when used with the C2 Controller. We cannot offer a guarantee for overload damage resulting from use with a controller aside from the C2. As a rule, the Line 212 systems should only be operated with a system equalisation (filter). If, despite this risk,

Important

the LINE 212 system should be run with another controller, we will send further instructions upon request.

The C2 Controller optimises the operating safety of speakers and power amplifiers through special peak and RMS limiters with sense technology:

With other (universal) controllers, the gain of the selected power amplifiers must be known. The limiter on the C2 Controller, on the other hand, uses a special control circuit to determine the actual output voltage of the power amplifiers. The limiter then reduces the input level only when the power amplifier actually provides more power than the speakers can handle. The amplifier's gain and the position of the input level control for the power amplifiers are insignificant for the limiter function of the C2 Controller.

9.1 Operations with Additional Bass Systems via C2

With the K&F bass systems, it is no problem to expand the low frequency range with additional bass systems. The C2 with specific plug-in system cards offers a 2-way stereo crossover to separate the transmitted signals into frequency bands for the Line 212 system and for the connected subwoofer systems. It adjusts the delay times and phases of the Line 212 system and the subwoofers. Because of this, an optimal combination of the Line 212 systems and all K&F bass systems is made possible. In doing so, the bass system B10 plays a special role. More information in the following section.

When operating using additional bass systems, it is, however, very important that when adjusting the power amplifier, the levels of the tops and the bass systems are matching. This adjustment is done by the sound engineer with the sub gain control of the C2 Controller.

9.1.1 Line 212 via C2 and Bass B10 via C10 Controller

When used parallel to the Line 212 System, the subwoofer system ACCESS B10, controlled by the K&F Controller ACCESS C10, provides an ideal bass supplement.

The C 10 Controller is equipped with configuration switches for various configurations and uses. A special electronic circuit frees up reserves from the B10 for the sub-low range. Compared to the possible use with a C2 Controller, the operations with a C10 Controller provide increased bass performance.

9.1.2 Line 212 and Bass B10 via C2 in 2-Way Active Mode

When operating in this mode, the ‘Full-range’ switch on the C2 Controller should not be pressed, the corresponding ‘Full-range’ LED is not lit!

In the 2-way active mode, the Line 212 is relieved of the high-energy bass signals and can, therefore, produce a significantly higher sound pressure level. With this, the number of necessary bass speakers to reproduce the correct sound level relationship is increased.

The C2-Controller is configured for 2-way active mode in the following way:

If 2 or 3 Line 212 systems are mounted on top of 2 stacked B10 bass systems, the gain of the power amplifier for the Line 212 should equal the gain of the bass amplifier in stereo or dual mono mode (with level controls in maximum position).

If only one top is stacked on one bass system B10, then the gain of the bass system's power amplifier should be increased by approx. 4-5 dB.

User's Manual LINE 212-6 / LINE 212-9

9.1.3 Line 212 via C2 in Full-Range Mode and Bass B10 via C10

When operating in this mode, the ‘Full-range’ switch on the C2 Controller should be pressed, the corresponding ‘Full-range’ LED is lit!

Because a large portion of the bass range in full range mode is covered by the Line 212, less bass systems are necessary than for 2-way active mode in order to produce a balanced sound level ratio between the tops and the bass speakers. In this mode of operations, the maximum possible top level is lower than for 2-way active mode. Depending on the music programme, it is, for example, recommendable to use one bass

system B10 for two or three Line 212 systems.

Note

The recommended ratios between bass systems and Line 212 systems are intended to be used as reference values. The correct ratio of the numbers of bass speakers and mid/high speakers may vary with different configurations and applications. This results from the different coverage patterns of the bass and mid-high speakers. The sound level of the stacked basses increases by max. +6dB when doubling the number of speakers (+3dB efficiency plus 3dB by doubling the power amplifier level). The loudness of the tops increases in a different manner because of the directivity. The position of a bass speaker is also crucial for its actual sound level. A bass speaker, which is on the floor, can be a few decibels louder than a flown bass system because of the floor reflections. Because of this, a sound engineer must always fine-tune the system using the level control of the C10 or the sub gain control of the C2 (not on the mixing console!).

Operating instructions for the C10 Controller are in the user’s manual ‘ACCESS SYSTEM’ and for the C2 Controller in the user’s manual ‘K&F Controller C2’.

10. Wiring

The Speaker is equipped with two parallel-wired Speakon connectors.

Before connecting your Line 212 system as shown in chapter 10.3 , be sure to switch off all connected appliances and turn down all level controls.

− We recommend the use of high-quality 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 10.2 )

− Please pay attention to the respective pin diagrams in this manual!

− To ensure an in-phase operation and, consequently, a homogeneous sound, 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.

− To avoid loss of power, the cables should have a minimum wire gauge of 2.5 mm² - more for longer cabled distances. A minimum wire gauge can be easily calculated with the following formula:

Minimum wire gauge (mm²) =

required cable length (m) 2 x speaker’s impedance (Ω)

If several loudspeakers are connected, the signal can be linked through from one loudspeaker to the next. Please make sure that the total impedance of the loudspeakers R (W) is not lower than the minimal impedance indicated on the power amplifier.

+ 1/R2 + 1/R3 + ... = 1/R

10.2 Avoiding Ground Loops

10.2.1 What is a Ground Loop?

Every component of a P.A. or Hi-Fi System has its own internal 0V 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.

10.2.2 Avoiding Ground Loops

If there is a loud humming or buzzing after the speaker has been connected, then check that a "ground loop" has not been built into the system. Some power amplifiers and system controllers facilitate a ground lift switch. Set these ground lift 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 or controllers (e.g. mixing console, effects 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 inter-

ference.

Warning

Please observe the following basic rules:

− Never!!! try to avoid a ground loop by disconnecting or taping the pro- tective earth contact at the mains connector! Extremely dangerous!

− If possible, only use high-quality audio appliances with balanced signal outputs and power cords 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.

− 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.

11. Operating the LINE 212 System

− Switch off all equipment and turn down all level controls.

− Wire the LINE 212 System according to the connecting diagrams overleaf.

− 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 mid-frequencies such as voices cannot be located.

− Switch on first the peripheral units (mixer, effects, etc.), then the C2 Controller and

connect lastly your equipment. Switching on the units in a different order could cause a cracking noise, which could damage the system.

− Now turn up the input controls of the amplifier. If there is interference, turn off all

appliances in the reverse order and check all cable connections (see instructions for avoiding ground loops).

Next, turn on the C2 Controller and the other peripheral equipment and make sure there

−

is no interference.

the power amplifiers. Always adhere to this sequence when switching on

Important

− Now put a low level signal into the system and check for the correct function of the

system. In doing so, all amplifier input controls need to be turned down again. Now turn on the control for the left Line 212 system and check that the correct signal is coming out of the top speaker. The ‘Sense’ LED for the top speaker (i.e. CH 1 TOP signal) of the C2 Controller will light up green at a level of at ca. -40dB. The other channels of the system are checked in the same way. If the wrong LED lights up or a wrong (i.e., in 2-way active mode, low signal from a high frequency speaker) or distorted signal occurs, then there is a mistake in the wiring.

− The system is now ready to operate. The power amplifiers can now be turned on all the

way. Use the gain control on the C2 Controller to set the level of the system to the desired setting.

The levels on the mixing console can now be turned up. 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.

12.2 Fuses and Protection Circuits

The LINE 212 is equipped with protection circuits, which cut off the signal current when highly overloaded - for the 1.5" high frequency speaker as well as for the crossover. If the high frequency speaker of the Line 212 turns off, reduce the volume. After a few seconds, it will turn back on automatically.

If there is operating trouble, the low-mid crossover circuits are protected with fuses. Blown fuses can only be replaced with fuses with the following specifications:

250V T4L (DIN EN 60127-2-3)

Warning

Do not use fuses with different specifications and do not try to bypass the fuse as this may cause fire hazard.

13. Touching Up Damage to Paint / Changing the Front Foam

Although the PU structured paint used by KLING & FREITAG is extremely resistant, we recommend using protective covers 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.
