LED Functions
Limit LED - When illuminated this indicates that the system is approaching clipping. An occasional flicker of the red LED on the loudest peaks is acceptable. If this LED remains red for more than the duration of brief dynamic peaks, or lights continuously then the system is being overdriven. If the red LED illuminates excessively:
•Reduce the input level (see interface panel)
•Reduce the output level of the mixer, or other source to the speaker.
Signal LED – The Green LED indicates that a useable signal is present at the input.
Power LED – When AC mains is connected to the speaker and the power switch is turned on, the blue lower LED will illuminate.
Gain Structure and Limiting
The VXP gain structure is designed to allow a
Equalisation
The VXP loudspeaker requires no equalisation or correction to overcome system limitations; equalisation is necessary only to compensate for difficult acoustic environments.
Audio Connections
The signal input & link connectors are fully balanced. When connecting a balanced signal be sure to wire to the following standard:
SIGNAL | XLR CONNECTOR |
Hot (+) | Pin 2 |
Cold | Pin 3 |
Shield (GND) | Pin 1 |
In a standard balanced interconnection there are two signal conductors and a shield. The shield is normally referenced to ground at one or both ends. Many times the shield is lifted at one end, usually at the input to eliminate “ground loops” or noise. This should be done only as a last resort; although it will reduce hum, the shields can act as radio antennas and pick up radio frequency interference from the environment.
Multiple enclosures may be driven from a single audio source; simply plug the signal source output into the first XLR input socket, and patch that speaker’s XLR link to the next speaker’s XLR input socket.
