2. Do not install this product near any heat sources, such as, radiators, heat registers, stove or other apparatus (including heat producing amplifiers) that produce heat.
3. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wider blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
4. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus. Do not break the ground pin of the power supply cord.
5. Only use attachments specified by the manufacturer.
6. Use only the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
7. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
8. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way; such as, power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture. When the MAINS plug or an appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device should remain readily operable.

Product Overview

The Sound Town ZETHUS-112BPW is a professional full-range line array speaker featuring a built-in Class D amplifier with Digital Signal Processing (DSP).

Rear Panel Description:

• A. Combo Input: Two balanced 1/4"/XLR combo jacks (CH1/2) for stereo input. The speaker functions with a single input.
• B. Line Output: Two XLR outputs (CH1/2) provide full-range passthrough signal output.
• C/D. Volume Control: Adjust the input signal gain to control the speaker's volume.
• E. Clip LED: Indicates when the amplifier is near clipping. Continuous illumination requires adjusting the level control and reducing the output level of connected sources to prevent premature failure.
• F. SET Knob: Used for adjusting DSP settings by rotating and pressing to confirm. Can also be used for main volume adjustment (-50dB to +10dB) on the initial LCD interface, though using the C&D volume controls is recommended for standard signal levels.
• G. LCD: Displays the DSP interface.
• H. AC Input: Neutrik powerCON receptacle for power input. Ensure proper AC line voltage. Do not connect to intermittent or faulty power.
• I. AC Output: Neutrik powerCON connector for power output to other units. Ensure proper AC line voltage.
• J. Voltage Selection: Switch to select between 115V (US Standard) and 230V (European Standard) operation. Set according to your region.
• K. Power Switch: Turns the speaker on/off.

DSP Setting Guide

The ZETHUS-112BPW features a Class D amplifier with a professional DSP module for sound curve design tailored to different venues.

Operating the SET Knob: Rotate to select options and press to confirm settings. The LCD displays the DSP interface.

Navigating the DSP Interface: From the initial volume display, press the SET knob to enter the main DSP interface, which shows 6 icons: 'MODE', 'EQ', 'CROSS', 'LIMIT', 'SAVE', and 'EXIT'. Rotate the SET knob to select an icon and press to enter its sub-interface, or select 'EXIT' to return to the initial volume display.

1. MODE: Select from five pre-set modes: 'MUSIC', 'LIVE', 'SPEECH', 'CLUB', or 'BY PASS' (default).
2. EQ: Adjust Bass or Treble levels from -15dB to +15dB (default is 0dB).
3. CROSS: Crossover settings for the LF and HF drivers. Adjust the crossover point for the LF driver's high-pass filter (LF-HPF) from 20Hz to 200Hz (default 40Hz) and the low-pass filter (LF-LPF) from 1500Hz to 3000Hz (default 1800Hz). Adjust the HF driver's high-pass filter (HF-HPF) from 1500Hz to 3000Hz (default 1800Hz).
4. LIMIT: Adjust GAIN or LIMIT settings for LF and HF drivers. LF-Gain: -10dB to +10dB (default +10dB). LF-Lmt: -10dB to +5dB (default +5dB). HF-Gain: -10dB to +10dB (default +8dB). HF-Lmt: -10dB to +5dB (default +5dB).
5. SAVE: Options include:
   • SAVE: Saves the current settings, which will be loaded upon power-up.
   • Reset to Dft: Loads the factory default settings.
   • Save as Dft: Saves the current settings as the new default. Requires password '2105'. Use with caution as it overwrites original defaults.
