TRS 1/4" phone plug or the XLR plug will provide superior interference rejection and performance. Sometimes,
with difficult interference problems, it will be helpful to lift the shield ground on a balanced cable at the PV
end. Check any input changes carefully, always turning the volume control down before plugging and unplugging
cables or making grounding changes.
Use of high quality, premium cables is recommended for the PV
materials and will provide greater long-term reliability. It is usually a good idea to leave some slack at the input to
the PV
215D and also to tape the cables down or run them under a cable guard to avoid anyone tripping over them

or pulling the PV
215D over.

Level Control Adjustment
The PV
215D is equipped with a level control (5) to facilitate use in many different applications. With the level
®
control adjusted fully clockwise, gain is at maximum and the input sensitivity is 0.650 V RMS for full-rated output.
When driving the PV
215D from a mixer, it may be advantageous to reduce the input sensitivity by turning the
®
level control to the halfway point or even less. The PV

Use of the PV
215D with a powered Subwoofer
®
Powered subwoofers often have a built-in electronic crossover to allow a high-pass filtered signal (lows rolled-off )
to be sent to the upper range speaker. The PV
type of powered subwoofer, first run the signal from the mixer or signal source to the powered sub input, then
come out of the combo jack labeled "THRU/HPF" and send that signal to the PV
Sub, the button to the far left labeled THRU/HPF should be pushed in to engage the high-pass filter (HPF). On
other powered subwoofers, if they have a similar high-pass filter function, send the signal in and out of the
subwoofer according to the Manufacturer's instructions, which should be similar to the instructions as outlined
above.
TROUBLESHOOTING
No Output at All
First, make sure the unit has AC power and is turned ON. Make sure the Power/Clip LED (8) is illuminated Green.
If not, make certain the ON/OFF switch (3) is in the ON position and check the IEC power cord connection (2) by
ensuring it is fully engaged and seated. Make certain the AC line cord is plugged into a working AC outlet. Finally,
check the fuse (2a). (See the Rear Panel: Fuse section for safety instructions.)
Once assured your unit is getting AC power, check that the PV
the cable running to its inputs and connect it to some other device capable of reproducing the signal (i.e., a power
amp and speaker). If this produces a signal, make sure that all Volume controls being used have been turned up to
a satisfactory level (one-third to halfway).
If the PV
215D has been subjected to direct sunlight or excessive heat, the built-in thermal protection may have
®
been triggered. The power/clip LED will be illuminated RED if this is the case. If so, turn off the PV
cool for a sufficient amount of time.
If there is still no output, contact your authorized Peavey
Hum or Buzz
If the PV
215D is producing a hum or buzz, this can be AC outlet related. Try plugging the PV
®
a different AC outlet. Sometimes, if a different AC power circuit (breaker) is used for the mixer and the
PV
215D, it can cause hum problems.
