Quick Start

The following steps will help you get started using your RS112A/RS115A Loudspeaker with a mixer.

1. Turn the RS Loudspeaker and mixer Power switch to the OFF positions.

2. Turn the VOLUME control on the rear panel of the RS Loudspeaker down, fully

counterclockwise.

3. Following the manufacturer’s instruction, connect your audio sources to your mixer.

4. Connect either a XLR or 1/4” cable from the output of your mixer to the INPUT 1 jack on

the RS112A/RS115A rear panel. Set the LINE/MIC switch to the LINE position.

5. Connect the supplied power cable to the IEC socket on the back of the loudspeaker. Plug

the power cable into an AC outlet.

Note: Always make sure that the AC outlet is congured with the correct voltage as

indicated on the rear panel of the RS Loudspeaker.

6. Turn the power on the mixer and RS Loudspeaker.

7. Run an audio signal from your mixer and check that you are getting a good level using the

mixers output meter.

8. Slowly raise the RS Loudspeaker’s VOLUME control until you have reached the desired level.

9. If the volume from the speakers gets really loud, or you see the Limit indicator blinking

frequently, turn down the VOLUME control on the RS112A/RS115A a little until the

indicator does not light, or only lights occasionally with signal peaks.

Note: Before plugging in and turning on, remember the “last on, rst

off” rule of powered audio gear - When powering up your system, be

sure that all the wires are connected, rst turn on your mixer and

any other outboard gear, then turn on your RS Loudspeakers. When

powering down, turn off your RS Loudspeakers off rst and then your

mixer and outboard gear.

Follow these steps to connect a microphone level signal to your RS Loudspeaker and daisy-

chain the signal to a second RS Loudspeaker:

1. Set the both RS Loudspeaker’s POWER switch to the OFF position.

2. Turn the VOLUME control down, fully counterclockwise.

3. Connect the power cables for each cabinet to an AC socket.

4. Connect a standard XLR cable from the main RS Loudspeaker’s MIX OUT to the second

RS Loudspeaker’s INPUT 1 XLR input.

5. On the second RS Loudspeaker, set the SENSITIVITY switch to the LINE position.

6. Using a standard XLR cable, plug a dynamic microphone into the RS Loudspeaker’s XLR

INPUT.

7. Set the SENSITIVITY switch to the MIC position.

8. Switch the Power switch to the ON position.

9. While speaking or singing into the microphone, slowly raise the VOLUME control until you

have reached the desired level.

10. For larger sound reinforcement you can run several monitors using the Link Output to

daisy-chain one RS Loudspeaker to another. Set the input Sensitivity on the additional

cabinets to the LINE level position.

Connecting a Wired Microphone

1. XLR & 1/4” Combo Input - Use

these XLR - 1⁄4” input for

balanced microphone or line level

devices.

2. SENSITIVITY Switch (Mic/Line) -

Matches the channel sensitivity to

the input audio source signals.

3. COMPRESSOR - These knobs adjust

the level of compression applied

to the channel. As the knob is

turned clockwise, the compression

ratio is raised and the output

gain is adjusted accordingly. The

dynamic range of the channel is

narrowed, where softer signals will

be magnied and loud signals will

be subdued to sit better in the

mix. Too much compression can

create a pumping effect, eliminate

all dynamic range, and lead to

feedback.

4. Volume Control - This knob adjusts

the level of the Channel 1 and 2

input signals.

5. Pairing Indicator - Displays the

Bluetooth®status of the RS

loudspeaker.

6. Pairing Button - Press this button

to enable discoverable mode to pair

with a Bluetooth audio device.

7. Volume Control - This knob adjusts

the level of the Bluetooth and Aux

In.

8. 1/8” AUX IN - Connect a line level

device using a 3.5mm audio cable.

9. XPD WIRELESS Input - Connect a

Samson XPD digital wireless USB

receiver to this input.

10. MIX OUT - Male XLR connector used to link multiple RS Loudspeaker cabinets.

11. SIGNAL / LIMIT Indicator - This indicator lights green when signal is present. It will light red

when the amp is near the clipping point and the limiter is engaged.

12. POWER Indicator - This LED lights GREEN when amp is active.

13. POWER Switch - Switches on the RS Loudspeaker’s main power.

14. AC Power Inlet - Connect the supplied standard IEC AC power cable here.
