continuously without any problems. The unit is equipped with a
signal sensing turn on/off that will automatically turn on the unit
when a signal is present at the inputs and turn off the unit after
several minutes when there is no longer any signal at the inputs.
If you plan to leave the VA-907.2 unused for an extended period of
time, we recommend that you turn off the unit by the master power
switch on the rear panel.
Troubleshooting & Service
Before seeking service for your VA-907.2 subwoofer, please re-
check all systems. Following is a simple troubleshooting guide to
assist you.
1. Verify unit is plugged in and power outlet used is active.
2. Is power switch on?
3. Is auto turn on/off set properly?
4. Is unit receiving an input signal from your source?
5. Have all controls on subwoofer (volume, crossover, phase,
etc.) been properly set?
6. If unit has been running at high levels, one of the protection
circuits may be engaged.
Has the built-in amplifier overheated?
Has the speaker's voice coil started to heat up?
If the protection circuitry is active, the unit may cycle on and off until
operating parameters return to normal. Under more serious condi-
tions, the unit may shut off completely. Normal operation will return
upon cooling, but you may be required to turn the power off and then
on again to reset the unit.
The following conditions require service by a qualified technician:
1. The power cord has become damaged.
2. The unit does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a
marked change in performance.
3. The unit has been exposed to water.
4. Some part of the cabinet or circuitry is physically damaged.
Thank you for purchasing a Velodyne!
