Audio Connections; Operation - Monacor TXA-700USB Bedienungsanleitung

The remote control for the integrated MP3
player / Bluetooth receiver is supplied with a
battery. If there is a foil on the battery
holder, remove the foil prior to initial opera-
tion.
To replace a discharged battery:
1) Push the latch of the battery holder to
the right (first arrow in the following fig-
ure) and remove the battery holder (sec-
ond arrow).
2) Remove the discharged battery and
insert a new 3 V button cell of the type
CR 2025 with the positive pole facing
upwards into the holder.
3) Insert the holder into the remote control.
If the remote control / microphone is not
used for a longer time, remove the battery/
batteries as a precaution so that the remote
control / microphone will not be damaged in
case the battery/ batteries should leak.
Never put batteries in the house-
hold waste. Always take them to a
special waste disposal, e. g. col-
lection container at your retailer.
5.2 Active speaker system
The unit can be operated via the 230 V
mains or via the integrated lead gel batter-
ies.
During operation via the rechargeable bat-
teries, the four LEDs BATTERY LEVEL
(31) will indicate the charge status of the
batteries:
LEDs 1, 2, 3 light up (highest charge level) → LEDs
1, 2 light up → LED 1 lights up → LED LOW lights
up (almost discharged)
Important: To ensure a long lifetime of the batter-
ies and to prevent damage to the batteries due to
deep discharge, please observe the following
notes:
– Always fully charge the batteries prior to initial

operation.

– When the red LED LOW lights up, recharge the
batteries as soon as possible.
– Fully recharge the batteries prior to longer stor-
age and at least every two months during stor-
age.
Mains operation / charging the batteries:
To operate the unit via the mains and / or to
recharge the internal batteries, first con-
nect the mains cable supplied to the mains
jack (33) and then to a socket (230 V~/
50 Hz).
The unit will automatically be charged
when it is connected to the mains: the LED
CHARGE (34) will light up to indicate the
charge process.
– When the unit is switched off, the LED
CHARGE will extinguish as soon as the
charge process is completed (depending
on the charge status of the batteries; e. g.
after approx. 16 hours if the batteries
were discharged to such an extent that
10
the LED LOW of the indicator BATTERY
LEVEL lit up).
Note: The unit will still be connected to the mains
and will have a low power consumption even
when the charge process has been completed.
– When the unit is switched on, the LED
CHARGE will not extinguish: the unit still
consumes power, i. e. the charge process
is not completed.
Do not permanently leave the unit con-
nected to the mains: Disconnect the mains
plug from the mains socket after operation
or when the batteries have been charged.

6 Audio Connections

Always switch off the unit prior to making
any connections.
6.1 Channel CH 1
Two inputs (22) for stereo audio sources
with line signal level (e. g. CD player, MP3
player, recorder) are available: the 3.5 mm
jack AUX and the RCA jacks CD / TAPE IN.
The left channel and the right channel of
the stereo signal are combined to a mono
signal.
When the input AUX is connected, the
input CD / TAPE IN will be switched off.
6.2 Channels CH 2 and CH 3
It is possible to connect either a micro-
phone or a mono audio source with line
signal level (e. g. mono output of a mixer)
to the mono input INPUT (24) of each
channel.
The jack is balanced: When the output
of the microphone / line source is balanced
as well, use an XLR plug or a 3-pole
6.3 mm plug for connection; when the out-
put is unbalanced, use a 2-pole 6.3 mm
plug for connection.
At each channel, set the selection button
(25) for the input sensitivity according to
the connection type:
– for a line source, disengage the button
– for a microphone, press the button
6.3 Output LINE OUT
At the mono output LINE OUT (30), the
mixed signal of the audio sources is avail-
able; it will not be influenced by the setting
of the total volume control (28) and of the
tone controls (29). The jack is balanced.
Use a 3-pole 6.3 mm plug to connect the
output to a mono input of another TXA-
700USB (or to a balanced mono input of a
different unit, e. g. mixer).
7 Operation
CAUTION Never adjust the amplifier sys-
tem to a very high volume.
Permanent high volumes may
damage your hearing! Your
ear will get accustomed to
high volumes which do not
seem to be that high after
some time. Therefore, do not
further increase a high volume
after getting used to it.
1) To prevent switching noise and exces-
sive volume, set the total volume control
MASTER VOL (28) to "0" prior to switch-
ing on the unit.
2) To switch the unit on and off, use the
switch POWER (35). When the unit is
switched on, the power indicator PWR /
LIMIT (27) will light up in blue.
3) Use the selection button (20) to select
the audio source for channel CH 1:
– to select the integrated MP3 player/
Bluetooth receiver, disengage the
button
– to select the unit at the input AUX or
CD / TAPE IN (22), press the button;
when both inputs are used, AUX will
be selected
4) Turn the control MASTER VOL to the
right according to the total volume
desired. To separately adjust the vol-
ume for each audio source that is to be
audible, use the appropriate control:
– for channel CH 1 (either the MP3
player / Bluetooth receiver or the unit
connected to channel CH 1), adjust
the volume with the control LEVEL
(21) of the channel
Note: The control buttons of the MP3 player /
Bluetooth receiver can additionally be used to
adjust its basic volume. All information with
regard to operation of the MP3 player / Blue-
tooth receiver can be found in chapter 1.2.
– for channel CH 2 and channel CH 3,
adjust the volume with the control
LEVEL (23) of the respective channel
– for the wireless receiver, adjust the
volume with the control PWR / VOL (14)
Note: All information with regard to operation
of the wireless receiver can be found in chap-
ter 7.1.
Switch unused sources off or set their
volume to minimum.
5) The control REVERB (26) can be used to
add a reverberation effect to the audio
signals of the wireless microphone and of
the microphones connected. The more
the control turned to the right, the stronger
the effect (position "0" = no effect).
6) Use the controls HIGH and LOW (29) to
adjust the sound.
7) The power indicator PWR / LIMIT will
light up in red when the volume is so
high that the internal level limiter is acti-
vated. In this case, reduce the volume
level accordingly.
