4 5Care and Cleaning EON208P systems may be cleaned with a dry cloth. Do not get moisture into any of the openings in the system. Ensure that the system is unplugged from the AC outlet before cleaning. THIS APPARATUS CONTAINS POTENTIALLY LETHAL VOLTAGES. TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK OR HAZARD, DO NOT REMOVE CHASSIS, MIXER MODULE OR AC INPUT COVERS. NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. Section 2: Precautions The EON208P PA system covered by this manual is not intended for use in high moisture environments. Moisture can damage the speaker cone and surround and cause corrosion of electrical contacts and metal parts. Avoid exposing the speakers to direct moisture. Keep speakers out of extended or intense direct sunlight. The driver suspension will prematurely dry out and nished surfaces may be degraded by long-term exposure to intense ultra-violet (UV) light. The EON208P PA system can generate considerable energy. When placed on a slippery surface such as polished wood or linoleum, the speaker may move due to its acoustical energy output. Precautions should be taken to assure that the speaker does not fall off a stage or table on which it is placed. Stand Mounting Safety Precautions The EON208P speakers contain a 36 mm receptacle cup to allow mounting on tripod stands or on a pole over subwoofers. When using stands or poles, be sure to observe the following precautions: • Check the stand or pole specication to be certain the device is designed to support the weight of the speaker. Observe all safety precautions specied by the manufacturer. • Always verify that the stand (or subwoofer/pole) is placed on a at, level and stable surface and be sure to fully extend the legs of tripod type stands. Position the stand so that the legs do not present a trip hazard. • Route cables so that performers, production crew, and audience will not trip and topple the speakers over. • Inspect the stand (or pole and associated hardware) before each use and do not use equipment with worn, damaged or missing parts. • Do not attempt to place more than one EON208P series speaker on a stand or pole. • Always be cautious in windy, outdoor conditions. It may be necessary to place additional weight (i.e. sandbags) on the base of the stand to improve stability. Avoid attaching banners or similar items to any part of a speaker system. Such attachments could act as a sail and topple the system. • Unless you are condent that you can handle the weight of the speaker, ask another person to help you get it onto the tripod stand or pole. Hearing Damage, Prolonged Exposure to Excessive SPLThe EON208P system is capable of generating sound pressure levels (SPL) sufcient to cause permanent hearing damage to performers, production crew and audience members. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to SPL in excess of 90 dB. WATCH FOR THESE SYMBOLS! The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (Servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.The lightning ash with the arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of un-insulated "Dangerous Voltage" within the products enclusure that may be of sufcient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.!WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS EQUIPMENT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.RISQUE DE CHOC ELECTRIQUE NE PAS OUVRIR

The EON208P is a self-contained, portable PA system featuring multiple input channels with individual tone controls, Bluetooth® audio streaming, reverb and convenient output routing capabilities that allow the user to integrate the system into any number of audio environments. And with its lightweight and ergonomic design, the EON208P is perfect for situations where ease and portability are just as important as quality and exibility. Included in the EON208P package are: • 2 JBL professional speakers • 1 AKG vocal microphone, 1 microphone cable and 1 microphone clamp • 1 center housing with powered mixer and compartment for storage of speaker cables and microphone • 1 pair of unshielded speaker cables • 1 power cable • User's guideGETTING STARTED1.

8 94. Connect the Mixer Module to the Speakers On the back side of the mixer you will notice two ¼" phone jacks – these are your speaker output jacks. Take the speaker cables and connect them from these jacks to the jacks on the back of the speakers.5. Connecting the AC Power Cable Connect the female end of the power cable to the mixer and plug the male end into the wall socket or extension cord. Turn the "MASTER VOLUME" control to "0". Now turn the power switch to the "on" position. You should see the "POWER" indicator illuminated. At this point you are ready to bring in an audio signal and hear the signal amplied by the system.To Left speakerAC power inlet To Right speakerGetting Acquainted with the EON208P Powered MixerThis part of the EON208P system houses the mixing board and power amplier. You will connect all of the microphones, musical instruments, Bluetooth® audio device, external sound sources (like MP3 or CD players), in addition to any recording devices or additional speakers like a personal monitor, subwoofer or "Front of House" feed.The BasicsThe mixing board is actually a very simple device. A "mixing board" brings audio sources "in" (through the inputs) and routes the signal to the outputs (MASTER VOLUME/SPEAKER OUTPUTS or MONITOR OUTPUTS). The mixer controls enable the user to affect the tone and/or volume in addition to routing the signal and adding reverb to individual input sources. Let's look at the "inputs" rst:AUDIO INPUTSAll of the inputs will route to the speakers and to the MONITOR OUTPUT SECTION.MONO MIC/LINE INPUTSMoving from left to right there are 4 identical input strips comprised of (from top to bottom) a treble control, bass control, reverb control, reverb on/off button, volume control, mic/line selector and a XLR ¼" combination connector.BLUETOOTH INPUTThe EON208P comes equipped with the ability to stream Bluetooth audio.To connect a Bluetooth device rst press the "Bluetooth Pair" button on theback of the device. Then select "EON208P" from the source device to complete the pairing. Once paired, audio can be streamed from the connected device.

The inputs labeled "CH 5/6" offer the option of using ¼" phone plugs or RCA plugs and this channel has a volume control. The inputs labeled "CH 7/8" offer the option of using ¼" phone plugs or a 3.5 mm stereo input typically found on personal music players and this channel has a volume control. This is the best way to control the volume of the unit plugged into this input.MIC/LINE “SELECTOR” allows you to select between a microphone (XLR) input and a line (1/4" phone) inputReverb On/Off allows you to turn the effect control on or off for each channelHI-Z allows for a hi-impedance signal to be provided for devices on CH3 of the mixerPHANTOM POWER allows you to turn on/off phantom power when needed for condenser microphones on CH1 and CH2 STEREO OUTPUTS: We've brought signals into the mixer now let's send them somewhere…The EON208P has Left and Right ¼" outputs: 1. LEFT/RIGHT speaker outputs - These outputs should only be connected to the EON208P speakers and under no condition should they be connected to the input of another electronic device. These outputs carry power and as such could damage the electronic device. Only use "unshielded" speaker cables (like the cables provided with your EON208P).2. MONITOR OUTPUTS These ¼" or RCA outputs allow you to route the stereo mixer signal to another destination like a recording device, personal monitor, subwoofer or to another PA system (Front of House). 3. HEADPHONE OUTPUT This 3.5 mm output allows for listening to the mix using headphones. 4. SUBWOOFER OUTPUT This RCA output allows you to connect an additional subwoofer to the solution where added range is necessary.MASTER VOLUME and "Limit" LED Your EON208P is equipped with a "Master Volume" that controls the overall output volume of the system and a yellow LED that indicates that you have approached the maximum output. In addition to the limited LED, signal meters are also displayed for each output channel.
