Starting Up; Operation - Omnitronic XO-23 Bedienungsanleitung

The device must only be connected with an electric installation carried out in compliance with the IEC
standards. The electric installation must be equipped with a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a maximum
fault current of 30 mA.

STARTING UP

Make sure to power up before your power amplifier is turned in order to avoid loud transients which could
damage your speakers or annoy your audience.
System test
After connecting all cables, you should carry out a system test. Press all four Mute buttons in order to mute
all outputs.
Activate the HF outputs first. In case of wrong cabling, HF signals will come out of bass speakers that cannot
be harmed this way. Vice versa, the LF signals would destroy your HF speakers.
Starter's guide to crossovers
With an active crossover, you can separate the output signal of your mixer in different frequency ranges. In
this way you can define which signal portion will go to which amplifier.
The Omnitronic crossover can either be run in 2-way stereo or in 3-way mono mode.
Stereo operation is to be used in medium-sized and larger discotheques.
Mono operation is to be used for larger PAs and requires 2 crossovers.
The crossover is delivered in 2-way stereo mode. If you wish to run the crossover in 3-way mono mode,
please press the stereo/mono switch.
