APPLICATION
LSS's SF15DC is a 2-way self-powered loudspeaker system that provides high output, low distortion sound reinforcement for the entire range of pro audio applications. SF15 uses a 380 mm (15") low frequency cone with 75 mm (3") voice coil and Neodymium magnet and 75 mm (3") voice coil high frequency compression Titanium/Neodymium driver. SF15 is ideal for better performance in both touring and permanently installed applications. The
SF15A digital amplifier with DSP controller allows the pilotage in BI-AMP mode 750W for LF woofer + 200W for HF driver.
LSS's SF15DC was designed as main speaker in live events, as monitor system, front or delay fill and can be used stand alone or with one or more other loudspeaker to create horizontal array.

INSTALLATION AND WIRING
SF15 speaker can be mounted on the floor, on a pole or suspended through the dedicated hardware.
For installation on a pole, use the pole mount plate in the bottom of the case, speaker can be mounted on a tripod or on another speaker like a sub.

SF15DC_______________________________________________________________________________
SF15DC speaker can be mounted on the floor, on a pole or suspended through the dedicated hardware.
For installation on a pole, use the pole mount cup in the bottom of the case.
For suspended installation, follow the procedure below:
Insert ALUBAR SF15 in the guide slots on the sides of the case. If one speaker must be mounted, insert only the ALUBAR in the upper side.
Install the LIFTBAR SF15 on the ALUBAR, then lock them with a M8 BOLT.
10| Operating Manual ver. SF15DC-EN-1.1
______________________________________________________________________________
Install BUMPER SF15 and connect it with the LIFTBARs using four
GRILLO16. Another GRILLO16 can be used to hook the BUMPER.
Choising different holes in the LIFTBAR, allow to have different degrees of inclination. Inclination depends too from the way and the number of speakers installed.
To install more SF15 speaker suspended in horizontal configuration, mount
ALUBAR SF15 in the upper and lower guide slots on the sides of two adjacent cases.
Install BUMPER SF15 as previously explained and connect it with the
LIFTBARs using four GRILLO16. Another GRILLO16 can be used to hook the BUMPER

12| Operating Manual ver. SF15DC-EN-1.1
For suspended installation in vertical configuration, mount the ALUBAR in the cases of speakers.
To connect a case with the lower one use the JOINT SF15, then lock them with the locking pin.
It is possible to install a maximum of three speaker in horizontal configuration and three in vertical configuration.
Use plugs suitable to support the weight of the entire apparatus.
______________________________________________________________________________
Choose a safe mounting location, so as to prevent the cables can be stepped on or create tripping hazards.
Before making connections between mixer and speakers, make sure the mixer volume is turned down.
Connection are made via 3-pin XLR connector.
Before making connection between mixer and active speaker, make sure all the switches of the speakers are turned off and the mixer volume is turned down. To avoid a sudden signal, making connection, then turn on the mixer first and then the speakers. Turn on the amplifier by the power switch to position 1 (on).
When the system will start turn on 3 LEDs, after a few seconds will stay on only two or three if the input signal is present, when the amplifier turn on, start with the preset the previously loaded.
You can now use the system.
If necessary, adjust the volume by adjusting the potentiometer.
If you want to change the preset, follow the instruction below.
LOADING A PRESET
The active preset is indicated by the corresponding LED. It is possible to change presets by pressing the center pushbutton P.
P1
– preset 1 (green): indicates the factory presets SMOOTH
P2
– preset 2 (green): indicates the factory presets VOCAL
P3
– preset 3 (green): indicates the factory presets LOUD
P4
– preset 4 (green): indicates the factory presets FLAT

TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem Possible cause (s) Action
1. No Sound
Amplifier
Connect a known working test speaker to the amplifier outputs. If there is no sound, check that all the electronics are on, the signal routing is correct, the source is active, the volume is turned up, and so on. Correct/repair/replace as necessary. If there is sound, the problem is in the wiring.
Check the amplifier is On, the green LED is On and SIGNAL
LED blink. Then control Volume Knobs is open.
Verify that you have connected the correct XLR connector to the amplifier. Play something at low level through the amplifier (for
2. Poor Low
Frequency
Response
3. Intermittent output such as crackling or distortion
Wiring
Speakers wired outof-polarity
Faulty Connection example, from a CD player or tuner). If the sound level has gone or is very weak, the line has a short in it (possibly a severe scrape, pinch, or staple puncture). If the sound level is normal, the wire is open (possibly a cut wire or a missed connection).
When two speakers are connected out of polarity observe the wire markings on your XLR connector. Verify that pin 2 is + terminal and pin 1is - negative.
Check all connections to ensure they are all clean and tight. If the problem persists, it may be in the amplifier or wiring. See
Problem 1 above.
4. Constant noise such as buzzing, hissing, humming
Defective amplifier or other electronic
Devices
Poor system grounding or ground loop
If the noise is present but no program material is playing, the likely cause is the signal chain in the electronics. Evaluate each component as necessary to isolate the problem.
Check and correct the system grounding, as required.
If these suggestions do not solve your problem, contact your nearest LSS dealer or LSS distributor.
