Operating Your Subwoofer - JBL SUB80P Manual Del Propietário

The subwoofer will automatically turn on if it receives a trigger voltage at its External Trigger Input connector and will enter the Standby mode when
the voltage ceases.
If your preamp/processor or another audio/video component has a trigger-voltage connection that supplies between 3V and 30V (AC or DC),
connect it to the subwoofer's External Trigger Input connector. If the component's trigger-voltage connection has a 3.5mm mini jack, you can use
the supplied Trigger cable to make the connection.
NOTE: Do not connect the subwoofer's External Trigger input connector to a remote control output (IR Out) of your home cinema system or
surround receiver. Doing so could lead to malfunction.

TURNING THE SUBWOOFER ON AND OFF
Set the subwoofer's Power switch to the "On" position.
If you set the Power On Mode switch to "Auto", the subwoofer will automatically turn itself on when it receives an audio signal, and it will go into
the standby mode after it has received no audio signal for 15 minutes. The subwoofer's LED will glow white when the subwoofer is on and will not
be illuminated when the subwoofer is in the standby mode.
If you set the Power On Mode switch to "On," the subwoofer will remain on at all times. The subwoofer's LED will glow white.
If you connect the subwoofer's External Trigger Input connector to a trigger-voltage source, the subwoofer will turn on whenever a trigger voltage
is present and will enter the standby mode after the trigger voltage ceases, regardless of the position of the Power On Mode switch.
If you will be away from home for an extended period of time, or if you will not be using the subwoofer for an extended period, switch the Power
switch to the "Off" position.
WIRELESS OPERATION
When the wireless transmitter receives an audio signal from the source, it will immediately turn on and the status LED will change to flashing green
or solid green:
Green (flashing): Transmitter is on but has not established a link with the wireless subwoofer
Green (solid): Transmitter is on and has already established a link with the wireless subwoofer.
Red: Standby (no signal detected, transmitter off).
The transmitter will automatically enter the Standby mode after no audio signal is detected from the source for approximately 10 minutes.
WIRELESS CODE SETTINGS
The Wireless Code selectors on the transmitter unit and subwoofer must be set to the same position for the system to function correctly.
In the unlikely event that there is interference when operating the system, or if you have more than one JBL SUB80P operating, you may change
the channel at which the system operates. Set the Wireless Code selectors on one subwoofer's transmitter module and subwoofer to one of the
other three positions.
You can also set up a maximum of two subwoofers to receive audio from the a single transmitter by setting the Wireless Code selectors on the
transmitter and both of the subwoofers to the same position.
SUBWOOFER ADJUSTMENTS: VOLUME
Use the Subwoofer Level Control to set the subwoofer's volume. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the subwoofer's volume; turn the knob
counterclockwise to decrease the subwoofer's volume.
NOTES ON SETTING SUBWOOFER VOLUME:
Sometimes the ideal subwoofer volume setting for music is too loud for films, while the ideal setting for films is too quiet for music. When setting
the subwoofer volume, listen to both music and films with strong bass content and find a "middle ground" volume level that works for both.
If your subwoofer always seems too loud or too quiet, you may want to place it in a different location. See Placing the Subwoofer, on page 4,
for more information.
SUBWOOFER ADJUSTMENTS: PHASE
The Phase switch determines whether the subwoofer's piston-like action moves in and out in phase with the satellite speakers. If the subwoofer
were to play out of phase with the satellite speakers, the sound waves from the satellites could cancel out sound waves from the subwoofer,
reducing bass performance and sonic impact. This phenomenon depends in part on the placement of all the speakers in the room.
Although in most cases the Phase switch should be left in the "Normal" position, there is no absolutely correct setting for the Phase switch. When
the subwoofer is properly in phase with the satellite speakers, the audio will be clearer, have maximum impact and make percussive sounds like
drums, piano and plucked strings sound more lifelike. The best way to set the Phase switch is to listen to music that you know well and set the
switch in the position that gives drums and other percussive sounds maximum impact.
