4.2 Wiring Connections

The speaker requires both audio and power connections. Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated for outdoor use.

• Audio Connection: Connect your amplifier's speaker output to the speaker's audio input terminals. This speaker has an impedance of 8 Ohm. Refer to the wiring diagram for specific connections.
• LED Light Power: The integrated LED light requires a 12V DC power supply. Connect the appropriate wires from your 12V DC source to the light's power input terminals (Black for negative, Red for positive).

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Audio Playback

Once connected to an amplifier, the speaker will reproduce audio signals. Adjust the volume and audio settings directly from your connected amplifier or audio source.

5.2 LED Light Operation

The integrated LED light provides 70 lumens of warm 3000k illumination. The light is controlled via a touch method. Depending on your installation, this may involve a touch-sensitive area on the speaker itself or an external switch connected to the 12V DC power line.

6. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your OSD Eclipse speaker, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Periodically wipe down the exterior of the speaker with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the finish.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the speaker and its mounting hardware for any signs of wear, damage, or loose connections. Ensure all wiring is intact and properly sealed, especially in outdoor environments.
• Weather Protection: While the speaker is IP65 rated for outdoor use, prolonged exposure to extreme weather conditions (e.g., heavy snow accumulation, direct prolonged sunlight in very hot climates) can still affect its lifespan. Consider protective measures if such conditions are common.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your OSD Eclipse speaker, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• No Sound:
  • Check all audio cable connections between the amplifier and the speaker. Ensure they are secure and correctly wired (positive to positive, negative to negative).
  • Verify that the amplifier is powered on and functioning correctly. Test with another speaker if possible.
  • Ensure the volume on your amplifier or audio source is turned up and not muted.
• No Light:
  • Check the 12V DC power supply connection to the speaker's LED light. Ensure power is being supplied and the wiring is correct (Black to negative, Red to positive).
  • If controlled by a switch, ensure the switch is in the 'on' position.
  • If the light is touch-controlled, ensure you are interacting with the correct area.
• Distorted Sound:
  • Reduce the volume level on your amplifier. Overdriving the speaker can cause distortion.
  • Check for loose speaker wire connections, which can cause intermittent or distorted audio.
  • Ensure the amplifier's impedance matches the speaker's impedance (8 Ohm).

If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact OSD Audio customer support for further assistance.
