Care and Maintenance Problem Excessive Noise or System Hum What to do • When connecting a microphone to the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker, make sure the INPUT 1, SIGNAL INPUT switch is set to MIC. • Check to make sure that all system connections are secure. Lines that are not completely ­connected could create noise. • If using a mixing console, external source or receiving input from the F1 Subwoofer, make sure the INPUT 1 SIGNAL INPUT switch on the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker is set to LINE. • For best results, use balanced (XLR) connections on the system inputs. • Keep all signal-carrying cables away from AC power cords. • Light dimmers can cause hum in loudspeaker systems. To avoid this, plug the system into a circuit that is not controlling lights or dimmer packs. • Plug the audio system components into power outlets that share a common ground. • Check cables at mixing console inputs by muting channels. If the hum goes away, replace the cable at that mixing console channel. LED Indicators The following table describes LED behavior on both the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker and F1 Subwoofer.
