Troubleshooting

Display on front panel not lit

Check the following:

•There is AC power connected to the socket on the back of the 3100 loudspeaker.

•The power switch on the back panel of the 3100 loudspeaker is turned on.

If the display will still not illuminate, check any fuses in your power supply and the fuse in the inlet of the 3100 loudspeaker. If these are all intact, contact your dealer.

Remote not working

Check the following:

•The battery in the MSR+ remote.

•See if the 3100 loudspeaker has been set up as not controller in the Meridian Conﬁguration program. Note: This may be deliberate by your dealer.

Unit goes silent when played hard and displays ‘Hot‘

The 3100 loudspeakers have a temperature sensing system on board, which prevents overheating of the electronics. The sound will continue when the speaker has cooled.

There is radio interference

The 3100 loudspeaker is a digital audio and computing device which has been designed to very high standards of electromagnetic compatibility.

If this equipment does cause or suffer from interference to/from radio or television reception then the following measures should be tried:

•Reorient the receiving aerial (or antenna) or route the antenna cable of the receiver as far as possible from the DSP loudspeaker and its cabling.

•Ensure that the receiver uses well-screened antenna cable.

•Relocate the receiver with respect to the DSP loudspeaker.

•Connect the receiver and this product to different AC outlets.

•If the problem persists contact your dealer.

Drive units move when the speaker is switched on or off

This is normal as the speaker active electronics settle.

Conﬁguring the 3100 loudspeaker does not have any effect

Make sure that you are conﬁguring the 3100 loudspeaker used as the master digital loudspeaker in the system. This determines the conﬁguration of all digital loudspeakers in the system.

Unit stays in standby

•Check that it is connected correctly.

•Turn the system on from another Meridian product in the system.

Only the master loudspeaker plays

•Check the S5 cables are connected correctly.

Sound is odd or mono

•Check that the 3100 loudspeakers are correctly conﬁgured as Left and Right respectively.

The green indicator ﬂashes or stays on

This indicates that 3100 clipping is occurring.

Brief ﬂashes indicate occasional clipping which will not be audible.

If the indicator stays on for long periods this may indicate a fault in the conﬁguration of your system, and you should contact your Meridian dealer.
