INSTALLATION

To ensure years of enjoyment from your NADY AUDIO
Ensemble PA-4180, please read and understand this
manual thoroughly before using the unit.

1. INSPECTION

Your NADY AUDIO Ensemble PA-4180 was carefully
packed at the factory in packaging designed to protect the
units in shipment. Before installing and using your unit,
carefully examine the packaging and all contents for any
signs of physical damage that may have occurred in transit.

[Please note: Nady Systems is not responsible for shipping
damage.  If your unit is damaged, do not return to Nady, but
notify your dealer and the shipping company (if shipped to
you) immediately to make a claim. Such claims must be
made by the consignee in a timely manner.]

CONTENTS:

• PA-4180 Mixer Section
• PA-4180 Left Speaker
• PA-4180 Right Speaker
• (2x) 20' Speaker Cables
• AC cord
• Instruction Manual
• Warranty Card

2. SETUP

After transporting the PA-4180 to the desired location,
stand the unit up on its feet and wheels.  Unclasp and
unhook the side panel latches and carefully remove the top
speaker by lifting on the latch panel of the speaker and
pulling apart the hinge connection.  Lift off the mixer section
in the same manner.

Position the PA-4180 mixer section on a flat surface with
the control panel facing front. Parts of the unit can become
very warm during use. This is normal during operation.
Care should be taken to ensure that there is enough space
around the Mixer Section for cooling. Make sure the side
panel vents are not obscured and have plenty of
ventilation.  Also, do not place the PA-4180 on high
temperature devices such as power amplifiers, etc., or the
unit may overheat in operation.  Although the PA-4180 is
shielded against radio frequency (RF) and electromagnetic
interference (EMI), extremely high fields of RF and EMI
should be avoided.

Please make sure that the power unit supplied is marked
for the correct voltage in your area (120VAC/60 Hz or
230VAC/50 Hz). Power requirements for electrical
equipment differ from area to area. In new installations and

portable sound systems, or any situation in which the AC
power is in question, it is wise to confirm the voltage and
use the appropriate power supply unit before connecting it
to power sources.

Europe (except UK): 230V, 50Hz

UK and Australia: 240V, 50Hz

USA and Canada: 120V, 60 Hz

For other areas, please check with local authorities.

Connect the speaker cables to the input jacks on the rear
panel of both the Left and Right speakers.  The connecting
terminal offers Speakon™ and two 1/4" jacks for easy daisy
chaining.  Connect the other end of each cable to the
corresponding Left and Right speaker outputs on the rear
panel of the PA-4180 mixer section.  Position the length of
the cables so they will not be a safety hazard to people.

Connect all sound sources to the appropriate inputs i.e.,
microphones, keyboards, CD players, karaoke machines.
When ready to operate, plug the AC cord into the power
source. Make sure that the unit is turned off before
connecting to the AC power source to avoid possible loud
transients which can damage your speakers or your ears.
Before turning on, connect up the speakers and all inputs
and outputs desired and turn down the Master Volume.
