3.3 Connections

Refer to the rear panel image for connection points.

Figure 3.3.1: Rear panel connections and controls.

1. Power Connection: Connect the supplied AC power cable to the POWER input on the rear panel and then to a suitable electrical outlet. Ensure the voltage matches the speaker's requirements (220-240V~ 50/60Hz).
2. Audio Input: Connect your audio source (mixer, microphone, instrument) to the INPUT section. The V10PLUS features a combo XLR/TRS input.
• For microphone signals, use the MIC/LINE switch to select 'MIC'.
• For line-level signals (e.g., from a mixer), select 'LINE'.
3. Link Output: The LINK output (XLR) allows you to send the input signal to another V10PLUS speaker or another audio device.

4. Operating Instructions

Once connected, follow these steps to operate your PROEL V10PLUS speaker:

1. Power On: Ensure all connections are secure and the LEVEL knob is set to minimum. Flip the POWER switch to the 'ON' position. The front LED will illuminate to indicate power.
2. Input Selection: Set the MIC/LINE switch according to your input source (MIC for microphones, LINE for line-level devices).
3. Volume Adjustment: Slowly increase the LEVEL knob to achieve the desired volume. Monitor the front LED: it should primarily show 'SIGNAL' (green). If it frequently shows 'CLIP' (red), reduce the input level from your source or the speaker's LEVEL knob to prevent distortion.
4. Tone Control: Use the HIGH and LOW EQ knobs to adjust the treble and bass frequencies to suit your preference or acoustic environment.
5. Power Off: Before disconnecting power or cables, turn the LEVEL knob to minimum and then flip the POWER switch to 'OFF'.

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps preserve the performance and appearance of your speaker.

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the cabinet. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or waxes.
• Grille Cleaning: The metal grille can be gently cleaned with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dust.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the speaker in a dry, cool place, ideally in its original packaging or a protective cover, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Cable Inspection: Periodically check all power and audio cables for any signs of wear, cuts, or damage. Replace damaged cables immediately.

Caution: Do not attempt to open the speaker cabinet. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
