Expedition Express 10 Quick Start Using a microphone • Set the Expedition Escape's power switch to the OFF position, and fully turn the volumes controls counterclockwise to 0. • If an outlet is available, connect the included power cord to the AC INPUT of the speaker, and plug it in. • Connect a microphone using a 1⁄4" cable to the MIC INPUT. • Switch on the Expedition Escape power. • While speaking into the microphone, slowly raise the channel MIC until you have reached the desired level. NOTE: If not using the MIC input, turn the volume control all the way down to keep out any unwanted noise. Pairing with a Bluetooth® device • Turn all MASTER VOLUME control all down counterclockwise to 0. • With the Expedition Escape and your Bluetooth device powered on; press the PAIR button on the rear panel of the Expedition Escape speaker to make the speaker discoverable. The Bluetooth indicator will slowly flash blue. • In the settings of your Bluetooth device, set it to “discover” available devices. • From the Bluetooth device list, select the "Samson Escape" device. • If your device asks for a passkey, enter digits 0000 (four zeros) and press OK. Some devices may also ask you to accept the connection. • As the Expedition Escape is connecting to your device, the Bluetooth indicator will quickly flash blue. • The Expedition Escape speaker indicates that pairing is complete when the indicator turns steady blue. You can now stream audio from your device to the Expedition Escape speakers. • With the volume control on your Bluetooth device turned up, play some music, and slowly raise the Expedition Escape channel MASTER VOL control until you have reached the desired level. Charging the Battery The Expedition Escape has an internal, rechargeable battery capable of 20 hours of continuous audio on a full charge. Even though the system may have some charge when first taken out of the box, we recommend fully charging your Expedition Escape before first using the system. To charge the battery for the first time: • Set the power switch to the “OFF” position. • Connect the Expedition Escape to an AC power outlet using the included power adapter. • Keep the system plugged in until the Battery indicator changes to green, indicating the battery is fully charged. The Expedition Escape utilizes a sealed lead-acid gel cell battery. When not in use, the battery will slowly self-discharge. If you are planning not to use the Expedition Escape for a long period of time, it is advised to fully charge the unit before storing. It is also important to charge the unit every six months when not used. This will ensure a healthy battery and extend its life. If the battery is left with a very low charge for an extended period of time, it is possible to recharge the battery to working condition, but the charge time can take over 24 hours. If you find that the operation time of the Expedition Escape becomes noticeably decreased, even after fully charging, the battery should be replaced. Contact Samson customer service or your local distributor for a replacement battery. Expedition Express Speaker Placement The Expedition Escape provides three different placement options for your specific situation. For maximum sound coverage the Expedition Escape can be used with a standard 13⁄8” speaker stand. The speaker should be raised above the heads of the listening audience. Take care when placing the speaker on a stand, to ensure that it is on a level, steady surface and will not tip over. When using the speaker on the floor, or when the speaker is below the listener, the Expedition Escape features a monitor angle position to project the sound up, towards the audience. For smaller settings, the speaker can be placed vertically on a table or desk. Take care when placing the Expedition Escape in direct sunlight for long periods of time, as this may discolor or damage the unit. Do not place the speaker on wet surfaces, as it can cause malfunction. If you notice condensation on the unit, dry the speaker before using or storing. Avoiding Feedback Feedback is the annoying howling and squealing that can heard when the microphone picks up sound from the speaker. The sound is then re-amplified back through the speaker again, creating a feedback loop. Follow these steps to minimize the likelihood of feedback: • Avoid pointing the microphone directly at the speaker. In general it is recommended that the microphone be positioned behind the speaker enclosure. This uses the directional characteristics of the speaker and microphone to your advantage. • Keep the microphone as far from the speaker as possible. This will help achieve isolation between the speaker and the microphone, and allow you to increase the output of the Expedition Escape. • Position the microphone as close to the sound source as possible. This will enable the microphone to pick up more direct sound, and allow you to reduce the microphone input gain control. • Reduce the overall level of the speaker. 10 Specifications Amplifier Mic Input . . . . . . . . . . . . ¼" Aux Input . . . . . . . . . . . . ¹∕8" LEVEL Controls . . . . . . . . .
