ELX200 Passive Loudspeakers 1 Safety 1.1 Important safety instructions 1. Read these instructions. 2. Keep these instructions. 3. Heed all warnings. 4. Follow all instructions. 5. Clean only with a dry cloth. 6. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. 7. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer. 8.
en 1.3 5 Precautions Do not use Electro-Voice loudspeakers in an environment where temperatures ! are below 0°C (32°F) or exceed +40°C (104°F). Never expose an Electro-Voice loudspeaker to rain, water, or high moisture. ! Electro-Voice loudspeakers are easily capable of generating sound pressure ! levels sufficient to cause permanent hearing damage to anyone within normal coverage distance. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to sound pressure levels exceeding 90 dB. 1.

ELX200 Passive Loudspeakers 3 Tripod and floor monitor operation 3.1 Tripod or pole mount ELX200-10, ELX200-12, and ELX200-15 loudspeakers mount on a tripod stand or on a pole above a subwoofer. Mounting a loudspeaker on a tripod stand Figure 3.1: Full-Range models on a tripod stand Caution! ! Tripod is not evaluated for safety with this loudspeaker. Check the specifications of the tripod stand to be certain it is capable of supporting the weight of the loudspeaker.
en 9 Mounting a loudspeaker on a pole Caution! ! Two person lift and placement is recommended for the heavier loudspeakers. Single person lift and placement of heavier loudspeakers could cause injury. To mount a loudspeaker on a pole, do the following: 1. Place the subwoofer on a level and stable surface. 2. Insert the M20 threaded pole into the combo pole cup on the top of the subwoofer. 3. Turn the M20 threaded pole clockwise to secure the pole to the subwoofer. 4.
ELX200 Passive Loudspeakers 3.2 Floor monitor ELX200-10, ELX200-12, and ELX200-15 loudspeakers may be used as a floor monitor by placing the loudspeaker on the integral monitor angle. To set up a loudspeaker as a floor monitor, do the following: 1. Place the loudspeaker on a level and stable surface. 2. Safely route cables to prevent injury to performers, production crew, and audience members. Notice! Secure cables with wire ties or tape whenever possible.
en 4 11 Suspension The ELX200 enclosures have three M10 threaded points; two points on top of the enclosure and one point on the bottom. Forged shoulder eyebolts rated for overhead suspension may be used to suspend an individual loudspeaker, such as the EBK1-M10-3PACK accessory. Warning! Suspending any object is potentially dangerous and should only be attempted by individuals who have a thorough knowledge of the techniques and regulations of suspending objects overhead.
ELX200 Passive Loudspeakers Installing the eyebolts To install the eyebolts, do the following: 1. Remove the three fly point covers from the suspension points. 2. Install M10 eyebolts and washers into the suspension points. Warning! ! Eyebolts must be fully seated and oriented in the plane of pull. Always use washers under the eyebolt to distribute the load on the enclosure. A B Figure 4.2: Eyebolt shown with washers (A) and without washers (B) 2017.10 | 01 | F.01U.326.

ELX200 Passive Loudspeakers Troubleshooting 6 Problem Possible Cause(s) Action 1. Amplifier Connect a known working test loudspeaker to the No sound amplifier outputs. If there is no sound, verify all the electronics are on, the signal routing is correct, the source is active; the volume is turned up, etc. Correct/repair/replace as necessary. If there is sound, the problem is in the wiring. Wiring Verify you have connected the correct cables to the amplifier.
