First

When setting up, installing and using the Electro-Voice®ZxA5 speaker system, there are a

number of precautions that you should follow:

·When Electro-Voice®ZxA5 speakers are used for portable applications in which they will be

positioned directly on the floor, make sure that the floor or stage is solid and secure.

·Electro-Voice®ZxA5 speakers include 1-3/8 inch stand mounts to allow mounting on tripod

stands.

Make sure to:

·Check the specifications of the speaker stand to be certain it is capable of supporting the weight

of the speaker.

·Check that the speaker stand is placed on a flat, stable surface and be sure to fully extend the

legs of the stand. Do not try to make the stand “taller” and compromise its structural integrity.

·Route cables and position the stand so that performers, production crew and audience members

will not trip over the stand or cables and pull the speaker system over. Secure cables with wire

ties or tape whenever possible.

·Do not attempt to suspend more than one speaker on a stand designed for a single speaker

·Unless you are confident that you can safely handle lifting the weight of the speaker onto the

stand, ask another person to help you place it.

·If you intend to hang or fly the ZxA5 system, only do so safely with the correct hardware and

accessories.

WARNING:

Suspending any object is potentially dangerous and should only be

attempted by individuals who have a thorough knowledge of the techniques and

regulations of rigging objects overhead. Electro-Voice

strongly recommends that ZxA5

speakers be suspended taking into account all current national, federal, state and local

regulations. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that ZxA5 speakers are safely

installed in accordance with all such regulations. If ZxA5 speakers are suspended,

Electro-Voice

strongly recommends that the system be inspected at least once a year.

If any sign of weakness or damage is detected, remedial action should be taken

immediately.

There are data sheets for each EV Suspension and Array Kit that should

also be consulted prior to suspending speakers.

·Electro-Voice®does not recommend use of ZxA5 speakers outdoors without

protection from rain or in high moisture environments.

·Electro-Voice®ZxA5 loudspeakers are easily capable of generating sound pressure

levels sufficient to cause permanent hearing damage to anyone within normal

coverage distance. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to sound

pressure levels exceeding 90 dB.

To get the ZxA5 into operation as quickly as possible, please observe the following steps and

precautions:

·Plug the 3-terminal PowerCon AC cable into a grounded line receptacle. Extension cords can be

used to lengthen the AC cable as necessary but make sure that they are 3-conductor 14 gauge or

greater, and that they are properly grounded to avoid electrical hazards and extraneous noise.

·Be sure that the ZxA5 is plugged into an AC power source that is capable of supplying the correct

voltage. If the line voltage drops too much, the built-in amplifiers won’t be able to develop their

rated power and sound quality will suffer. Under high signal conditions, the 120V ZxA5 amplifier

can draw 3 - 4 amps of current (2 amps at 240V). That means that no more than

(3) ZxA5 systems should be plugged into a single 15 amp electrical service. Be cautious of what

else is plugged into the same electrical service line to avoid electrical problems and poor

performance.

CAUTION: Before turning the power on, make sure that the level controls are down to

avoid t

ansients o

unex

ected loud sound.

Input Signal Connector

Electronically balanced inputs

for the connection of high-

level signal sources such as

mixers, signal

processors, etc. Establishing

the connection is possible via

a combinaton 1/4” TRS and

XLR jack. Balanced

connection is recommended

to prevent noise or HF-

interference.

CAUTION: Before connecting or

disconnecting any plugs, make sure to set

the level control to its counterclockwise

stop, which prevents the system and

audience from contact pops and noise.

Mode Switch

Selects between 40 Hz highpass filter for Fullrange

use, and 100 Hz highpass filter for use with a

subwoofer. It is not recommended that you use a

ZxA5 in Fullrange mode with subwoofers.

Level

This control sets the output level of the ZxA5 in a

range between -

∞

dB and +6dB. The internal power

amplifier provides a nominal input sensitivity of

+6dBu.

Power Switch

C switch for switching the ZxA5’s power ON or

OFF. The switch lights after turning the power ON.

If the switch is not lit upon turning the power on,

make sure that the AC cord is correctly connected.

If the AC cord is correctly connected and the AC

switch does not light upon power-on, please

contact your local dealer.

Mains In

C connection is established via a PowerCon

connector. A 15’ (5m) long AC cord with PowerCon

plug is supplied.

Mains Out

The PowerCon AC out socket allows the

connection of additional ZxA5 Systems.

To prevent AC network overload, connecting more

than (3) ZxA5 Systems to a single AC outlet (10A -

)

is not recommended.

ZxA5 enclosures have 5 steel anchor points internally mounted on the top, bottom, and rear.

Single stud fittings can be attached to these anchor plates and used as suspension points. Each

of these anchor plates also has a M8 thread to accept rated forged M8 shoulder eyebolts. In

addition to these points there are five additional M8 threaded points; two on the handle side, and

three on the rear. These points can be used for suspending ZxA5s vertically, horizontally,

individually, in clusters, or to attach to EV mounting brackets. Working load limits for the ZxA5 and

fittings are shown in Figure 3.

Prior to each use, inspect the grid assembly or suspension point(s) and associated hardware for

any cracks, deformations, broken welds, corrosion, missing or damaged components which could

reduce the grid assembly or suspension point(s) strength. Replace any damaged hardware. Never

exceed the limitations or maximum recommended load intended for grid assembly design or

suspension point(s). As an added safety measure, it is suggested that the user install a second

suspension point back to the grid (or building structural supports). This redundant safety point

should have as little slack as possible (less than one inch is preferable).

Prior to each use, inspect the loudspeaker enclosures for any cracks, deformations, missing or

damaged components, which could reduce enclosure strength. Inspect the bracket assembly on

the enclosures for any cracks, deformations, missing or loose screws which could reduce the

flying hardware strength. Replace any loudspeaker systems that are damaged or missing

hardware. Never exceed the limitations or maximum recommended load for the ZxA5 systems.
