Battery
Line In
Charge the battery for at least 10 hours before the first use of the PA919SD, PA919, or the PA919PS. Simply plug the
power cord into an AC outlet and charging begins automatically. The charging indicator will flash until fully charged,
then it will stay green. The unit can be used while it is plugged in for charging.
Insert both RCA plugs into the RCA jacks when using a stereo input. The left and right channels are combined so no
program material is lost. If the source is monaural, either RCA jack can be used. The Line In volume control is used
to increase or decrease the level of the input signal.
There are two indicators above the main power switch. When the unit is turned on, the one on the left will light “red”
when the battery has a low charge. The one on the right will glow “green” if the battery is fully charged or if operating
on A/C power.
Line Out
It is recommended that the battery be recharged after several hours of usage, rather than stored with a low battery. This
will prolong battery life. Storing more than 30 days without recharging will deteriorate the battery.
The two RCA jacks are used to connect to the input of another piece of equipment such as a tape recorder, mixer or
another amplified speaker. The outputs are monaural and volume level will depend on the volume of the source. For
example, the tape or CD player level is controlled by the tape/CD volume control. Lie out is independent of the Master
Volume Control.
Digital Master Volume Control
When the main power switch is turned on, the Digital Master Volume Control is at the lowest level to prevent accidental
damage to the amplifier or internal speakers. The volume can be controlled in two ways; using the “Up”“Down” buttons
on the mixer panel or using the RC-300 infrared remote control. The remote sensor must be used in front of the speaker
as the sensor is behind the speaker grille.
Tone Controls
The separate base and treble controls provide a wide range of adjustment for increasing or decreasing either the bass or
treble from “flat”frequency response. The center or “12 o’clock”position is flat.
Recommended Set-up Procedure
Speaker Mute Switch
Ideally the master volume should be at maximum volume before the wireless receiver and microphone volumes
are adjusted to the desired loudness. Since there are always at least two (2) volume controls to contend with, it is
suggested that prior to turning the power on the UHF receiver volume controls be set at “10 o’clock”. Also set the
microphone volume controls at “10 o’clock”. Turn on the main power switch and use either a wireless microphone
or cabled microphone to adjust the master volume.
Engaging this switch will cut off the sound of all speakers, internal and external, except as explained in the section under
“PA919PS operation”.
Voice Priority
This feature is used for voice override of the music program when using a microphone. The “ducking” circuit attenuates
the music when a person speaks into the microphone. After a 3 second delay in the speech, the music returns to the
previous level.
Digital Audio Player/Recorder & CD Player
The main power switch does not control the Digital Audio Player/Recorder and CD player. A separate power switch is
combined with the MP3/CD volume control to limit battery drain when the Digital Audio Player/Recorder or CD are not
being used.
Wired Microphones
There are two (2) independent combination XLR/1/4” jacks for using microphones with cables. Each jack has a volume
control which effects the loudness of both wired and wireless microphones. Also each has a “Voice/Music” switch. On
“music”program the sound is full fidelity, while on“voice”the sound is tailored to give maximum projection while limiting
battery drain.

Wireless UHF Receivers
OE-316
Over Ear Mic
Wireless receiver“A”is preset at the factory for channel 4 and receiver
“B” is set on channel 6. There are three (3) LEDs on the receiver;
power (green), RF reception (red) and Audio reception (amber).
There are also LEDs on the front of the speaker above the grille
making it easy to see if the microphone and receiver are working
properly. A red LED indicates RF (radio frequency) from the mic,
while an amber LED indicates audio.

NOTE: There are two wireless 900MHz mic receivers on the PA919SD and PA919 (and 1 on the PA919PS).
These frequencies are not compatible with any PA916 series PAs, M-316 or Q-316 microphones.

Channel
Up/Down
The PowerPro PA919SD incorporates a 16 channel UHF transmitter with its own power switch for wireless transmission
to another PA919 or the Powered Companion Speaker PA919PS. The transmitter is preset at the factory to channel 13. It
is recommended that the user not randomly change this setting. If using the transmitter function change wireless receiver
“A”from channel 1 to any other channel except channel 13 to prevent the transmitter from blocking the receiver.

Microphone Lockout
CM-316
Collar Mic
Two wireless microphones can be used at the same time, but separate channels (frequencies) must be used. For instance,
if using receiver “A” on channel 4, two microphone beltpack transmitters cannot be used at the same time. The first
transmitter turned on will dominate and lock out the other. The second microphone should be used with receiver“B”on
a different frequency which will allow two persons to talk at the same time.
Turn the transmitter power switch to OFF when not being used to minimize battery drain.
The M319 and Q319
are designed to work
with the PA919 series PAs.
They are not compatible
with the PA916 series PAs,
M-316 or Q-316.
Feedback
Feedback is a shrill screeching sound produced by the speaker system when a microphone is being used too close to the
front of the speaker. The microphone picks up the sound of the speaker system and it becomes reamplified. It is a self-
sustaining loop which can damage the system if allowed to continue, not to mention the annoyance caused to persons
nearby. Always stand 4 to 6 feet from the speaker to minimize the opportunity for feedback from the speaker system.

• Built-in headphone output.
A computer can be used to transfer files to or from the digital audio player by connecting to the USB port.
Follow this process to connect your computer and transfer files to/from the digital audio player/recorder:
1. Connect a USB cable to the USB ports on both the player and computer.
2. The player will then show the“connecting sign”as seen below:
Troubleshooting
3. The internal (Flash) memory will now show up as a removable hard drive on you computer.
4. Any SD card plugged into the digital audio player will show up as an additional removable hard drive on you computer.
5. Copy, move, rename, delete files, etc. on these drives as you would on your computer. When you unplug the USB
cable the changes will have taken effect.
• Why won’t some files be recognized by the digital audio player? Some MP3 or WMA files won’t play.
• This digital audio player supports most standard bitrate and file settings, but due to the large number of
compression types, and with new types being added all the time, not all files are recognized. Try to convert
any files that don’t play into a standard bitrate (128kbps, 196kbps, etc.) mp3 or wma file without special
settings in the encoder. Then upload the new file to the digital audio player and try again.
• The track’s playback time is not correct. Why?
6. Notes & Warnings:
a. Warning: When downloading or transmitting files to or from the player, do not disconnect the connector to
prevent damage to the player or PC.
b. If you are using Windows 98 you may need to install drivers first before the system will recognize the player.
c. Before using a new (unformatted) SD card with the digital audio player/recorder, please format the card first.
d. If the flash or SD card are not formatted or get corrupted somehow, you may format them by clicking on
“My Computer” and then right clicking on the drive and clicking“Format.”Note that all data on the drive will
be deleted and become unrecoverable. Don’t disconnect during the format process or it could completely
disable the player so that it will not work. Once formatting is complete, disconnect the USB cable
and reconnect it again.
• VBR format MP3 files may not display the proper track time. Try a fixed bitrate filetype if an accurate
track time is needed.
e. If the player freezes up for any reason, turn it off for 3 seconds, and then turn the power back on.
