Califone PA916-SP Powered Companion Speaker PA916-PS, Full Wireless Operation, Audio Line Buss

Powered Companion Speaker PA916-PS

The Powered Companion PA has the same amplifier, power supply and speaker compliment as the full featured PowerPro PA916. It does not have the mixer panel because it can be controlled by the PowerPro PA916.

With the integral 16-channel selectable wireless UHF receiver, it can function as a stand alone PA speaker when using a Q-316 Handheld microphone or the M-316 Beltpack transmitter with a LM-316, CM-316 or HBM-316 microphone. Although there are 5 LEDs on the front of the PA916-PS only 3 lights function on this unit because there is only one receiver. The red LED indicates RF, the amber LED is for audio, and the green LED indicates power On.

Full Wireless Operation

As the transmitter on the PA-16 is preset on channel 13, the receiver of the PA916-PS is also set on 13. Any audio from the PA916 can be transmitted to the PA916-PS without wiring. There is no limit on the number of PA916-SP speakers that can be used with the PA-916 within a range of 300 feet.

Audio Line Buss

When linking one or two PA916-PSs to the PowerPro PA916 via audio line, the PSC-50 XLR cable is connected to Audio Line Out XLR connector on the PA916. The other end is connected to Line In XLR on the Powered Companion Speaker.

The Master Volume Control on the Audio Line panel of the master will adjust the PowerPro PA916 as well as all the Powered or Pas- sive Companion Speakers, however the loudness needs to be adjusted via the Master Volume Control on the PA916-PS as well.

Note: The mute switch on the PA916 will silence all speakers connected to it by cable. However in the full wireless mode using the transmitter of the PowerPro the mute will have no effect.
