6/20

CONNECTION TO THE MAINS

Connect the OMNITRONIC XO-2300 only after having made sure that the right voltage (115/230 V) is
available. This device features a T 0,25 A, 250 V fuse.

STARTING UP

Make sure to power-up before your power amplifier is turned in order to avoid loud transients which could
damage your speakers or annoy your audience.

STARTERS' GUIDE TO CROSSOVERS

With an active crossover, you can separate the output signal of your mixer in different frequency ranges. In
this way you can define which signal portion will go to which amplifier.
The Omnitronic crossover can either be run in 2-way stereo or in 3-way mono mode.
Stereo operation is to be used in medium-sized and larger discotheques.
Mono-operation is to be used for larger PAs and requires 2 crossovers.
The crossover is delivered in 3-way mono mode. If you wish to run the crossover in 2-way stereo mode,
please press the stereo/mono switch.

OPERATION

2-way stereo operation

Please switch the stereo/mono switch to 2-way stereo.
The frequency is devided into two sections marked as channel 1 (left) and channel 2 (right). This user guide
will only explain the functions of one section.

Example for setting the frequency ranges (depending on the system and the room):

Bass

Highs

100 Hz - 10 kHz

100 Hz - 10 kHz

The frequency can be adjusted via the Frequency-control, depending on the Range-switch between 100 Hz
and 1000 Hz or between 1 kHz or 10 kHz (LED lit).

With the Gain-control, you can boost the incoming signal level by up to 15 dB.

With the Low Level and High Level controls, you can attenuate the respective output level in order to avoid
amplifier distorsion.

In the stero mode, both channels should be adjusted the same way.
