and check the Passport fuses. Be sure to replace any blown
fuses with fuses of the correct value. Reconnect the power
and speaker cables and turn the rear panel power switch on.
Re-set the system by turning on the power switch. If the
Power LED illuminates red, the system is indicating a thermal
protect mode or cooling problem. Be sure to check the air
inlet filter at the base of the unit by removing it and making
sure it is clear of debris.
Turn power off and wait for a few minutes allowing heat to
dissipate and the Passport to reset itself. If after doing so the
Power LED continues to glow red this indicates a fault with
your system and you should consult an authorized Fender
service center.
If no audio is present in one of the speakers, check to see if
your control settings are correct. Next, unplug the cable from
your working speaker and reconnect it to the other speaker. If
the second speaker now works, this indicates that the first
cable is bad, and should be repaired or replaced.
SET-UP SYSTEM VOLUME AND LEVELS
To set system volume and operating levels, be sure to follow
these simple set-up guidelines:
1. First, slowly raise the large Master volume control to its 12
o'clock notched position.
2. Use a microphone (or other source) in the same position as
it will be used on stage and in the manner in which it will be
used for the event. Slowly bring up the appropriate channel
input level control listening for the onset of feedback or
howling or until the required level is reached. Have a helper
"walk" the audience area to make sure coverage and levels
are sufficient for your needs. The system's overall volume can
be raised simply by rotating the Master volume control to the
desired level.
3. Consider the application and needs of the event and set the
System EQ control as appropriate. This is best achieved by
playing recorded material of the same type as your show
program, or by having an assistant speak into the microphone
while you listen in the audience area.
For public address (spoken voice), it is advisable to rotate the
System EQ control clockwise to enhance the mid and high
frequencies, and limit the low frequency content. For large
outdoor spaces this will also give the maximum headroom
and output capability. Carefully consider the individual event's
needs and set your control for the maximum effect.
POWER TOWER™
In setting up the system, the Passport Mixing console should
ideally be placed where system performance can be
evaluated by the operator. If no ongoing adjustments will be
necessary, the mixer may be placed conveniently and where
the cable lengths allow.
Take care to place the Power Tower where the cables will not
trip anyone. All cables should be carefully secured.
The storage compartment in the rear of the Tower can hold
cables, microphones and other system parts. To open simply
slide the catch upwards and pull open.
The mains (AC) fuse holder is under the IEC (power cord)
socket on the right rear of the Tower. To change a fuse,
remove the IEC plug and, using an appropriate tool pull out
the fuse holder. Note there is a spare fuse in the fuse holder;
the Passport utilizes a T4AH, 250V fuse. Only replace fuses
with one of an identical value and size.
The Passport System is weather resistant in its packed
transport mode. However, when operating outdoors, take
care to fully protect the Power Tower in the event of exposure
to rain. Remember to allow free air flow through the front
air inlet located at the bottom of the front panel on the
Passport power tower.
