ENGLISH OPERATION MANUAL ENGLISH OPERATION MANUAL OPERATION MANUAL Thank you for buying this JB Systems product. To take full advantage of all possibilities, please read these operating instructions very carefully. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS The PSX-12A can easily reproduce sound pressure levels (SPL) sufficient enough to cause sever and permanent hearing damage. Always protect your ears when you are exposed to SPL in excess of 85dB! Even if the speaker cabinet is made of water resistant material, the woofer and tweeter are not protected against humid and rain. Therefore this speaker is intended for indoor use only, use of this product outdoors, in humid conditions, voids all warranties. Always mount this speaker in safe and stable matter. Take special care when the cabinets are suspended. This is potentially dangerous and should only be carried out by technicians who have perfect knowledge of the techniques and regulations of rigging speakers!

CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS CABLES TO BE USED For the line level in/outputs you can use readymade XLR-cables such as our JB SYSTEMS codes 7-0063 (5m) or 7-0067 (10m). Other lengths are also available. For the speaker output: you can use readymade cables such as our JB SYSTEMS codes 2-0505 (5m). Of course you can also assemble the speaker cables yourself. Take care to use good quality speaker cable with at least 2x 2.5mm² conductors. You will also need a pair of Neutrik Speakon® NL4FC connectors. This connector has 4contacts: +1 -1 +2 -2. Only use the +1 and -1 contacts. Your speaker cable has 2 conductors with different colors. Be sure to connect the same color on each side of the cable to the corresponding contact! (+1 to +1 and -1 to -1). If you inverse the conductors, poor sound quality with a lack of low frequencies will be the result. 1. 2. 3. 4. MICROPHONE LEVEL: Used to set the input level of the microphone input (5). LINE LEVEL: Used to set the input level of the line input (6) TONE CONTROLS: Used to adjust the treble and bass of the master signal. MASTER LEVEL: Used to set the overall volume of the amplifier. Always set the master level to zero when you switch the cabinet on, after this turn up the volume to the desired level. 5. MICROPHONE INPUT: This input accepts both balanced and unbalanced microphones. You can use both ¼"jack and male 3pin-XLR connectors. Attention: To prevent damage to the tweeters of your speaker cabinet, please set the micro input level (1) to zero before you connect the microphone. Once connected you can turn the level up to the desired level. 6. LINE INPUT: This input accepts both balanced and unbalanced line level signals. The output makes it possible to connect several speaker cabinets to the same line output of a mixer. 7. SPEAKER OUTPUT: you can connect a second "passive" speaker cabinet to this Speakon output. Connections are +1 and -1. Attention: This output only supports 8 loads!!! Never connect a 4 speaker or more than one 8 speaker cabinet to this output! This can damage the built-in amplifier.

The LED will turn on when the cabinet is switched on. 9. FUSE HOLDER: houses a slow blow 20mm glass fuse. 10. MAINS INPUT: use the supplied power cable to connect the speaker cabinet to the 230V wall outlet socket. 11. MAINS OUTPUT: with a special IEC male/female power cable you can supply 230V mains voltage to a second powered PSX-speaker cabinet. REMARK: while the cabinet is in use, you will see a blue LED blinking on the front side of the PSX-12A. This makes it possible to check from a distance if the cabinet amplifier is switched on and receives an audio signal.

These can be used to suspend (fly) the cabinet in the air. For this purpose you can use heavy duty eyebolts with metric M8 thread. In most cases 2 cables will be attached to the top and one is used to pull up the back. Anyway always take special care when the cabinets are suspended. This is potentially dangerous and should only be carried out by technicians who have perfect knowledge of the techniques and regulations of rigging speakers! Every information is subject to change without prior notice STAND ADAPTER The PSX-cabinets also have a stand adapter on the bottom that can be used to put the cabinet on a proper and stable speaker stand. Examples of proper Speaker Stands are our SS-58, SS-AIR, LS-64, ... . Tighten the screw of the stand adapter to prevent the speaker from rotating during use. MONITOR ADAPTERS The PSX-cabinets are supplied with a pair of monitor stand adapters. You can use these to put the cabinet in monitor position on a stage. Just position the adapters as shown on the drawing: they will perfectly fit in the holes on the back and side of the cabinet. MAINTENANCE Clean the cabinet with a sponge and some non aggressive soap solution. Don't use any chemical solvents as they attack the enclosure!
