[. . . ] CAUTION: These servicing instructions are for use by qualified personnel only. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the Operating Instructions unless you are qualified to do so. Security regulations as stated in the EN 60065 (VDE 0860 / IEC 65) and the CSA E65 - 94 have to be obeyed when servicing the appliance. Use of a mains separator transformer is mandatory during maintenance while the appliance is opened, needs to be operated and is connected to the mains. [. . . ] It is in our category the manufacturer's responsibility to properly dispose of their waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) at the end of its life. Due to the differences in each EU country's management of WEEE, please contact your local distributor. We are committed to facilitate our own electronic-waste-management-system, for the free of charge return of all EVI Audio GmbH products: Telex, DYNACORD, Electro-Voice and RTS. Arrangements are made with the dealer where you purchased the equipment from, for the returning of all unusable equipment at no cost, to the factory in Straubing, for environmental protective disposal. Due to line current harmonics, we recommend that you contact your supply authority before connection. With buying a DYNACORD PowerSub 312 you have decided on getting one of today's most advanced active subwoofers incorporating most sophisticated technology. The PowerSub 312 active 12" subwoofer with an integrated 3-channel power amplifier provides a total of 1300 watts output power. It has been specially designed for the quick and easy setup of a subwoofer satellite system. Two passive loudspeaker systems like for example DYNACORD D8 are needed as satellites, which are simply connected at the designated Speakon outputs of the PS312. Manufactured from multi-ply wood the PowerSub 312 withstands even the hardest strain during transport and operation. The integrated lightweight digital power amp with 800 W + 2 x 250 W output power optimally matches the integrated DYNACORD DND 12S400 woofer offering highest dynamic and audio performance and at the same time ensures that the DYNACORD DND 12S400 woofer is always operated in its optimum operating range. While speaking or singing loud into the microphone adjust the channel's `Gain` control so that the green `SIGnal` LED lights. The red `PeaK` LED should not light at all or blink only once in a while. The red LED indicates that the audio signal is already distorted within the input channel. Slowly raise channel fader and master faders on the mixing console to the desired positions ­ i. Now you can balance the sound between the bass and mid-high range using the `SUB LEVEL` control on the PowerSub 312. Using a CD-Player is also an effective way to adjust the sound balance. a CD-Player of course has to be connected to the `LINE` inputs or via the `2TRACKRET` RCA-type sockets on the CMS 1000 mixer. Individual sound adjustments necessary can be made using the controls of the mixer's corresponding input channels. If the reproduced sound asks for extreme accentuation or lowering of the bass level, adjust the `Sub Level` setting on the PowerSub 312. Input channel sound controls of the mixing console should be reserved for moderate settings. extreme settings indicate that the PowerSub 312's `SUB LEVEL` is incorrectly adjusted. [. . . ] CLIP indicates, when lit, that the internal power amplifier is actually operated in the border range before clipping. Short-term blinking is uncritical, because the amp's audio limiter keeps distortion under control leaving the sound unaffected. Constant lighting of this indicator signals that the input section is probably overdriven and sound degradation could be the result. During normal operation this switch should be left at the 100Hz setting. [. . . ]
