Well, you got one monitor send on that mixer, so that's easy.
You've got two amp channels.
You've got 4 speakers.
Power specs were not provided, so I don't know how the power pairings work out, but you have no options with your current gear inventory; there is only one way to do it.

Cheers,

Lets choose the RIGHT out for the mains.

RIGHT OUT ---------CHANNEL A INPUT, IPR3000

MON OUT -----------CHANNEL B INPUT, IPR3000

Hook your PV15's into the CHANNEL A output and your monitors into the CHANNEL B output.

This is assuming you don't have an equalizer on either the mains or the monitors. If you do (and you should) then the hookup goes Mixer-----EQ's-----IPR3000.

Got it? Good. Now download and read these two items:

Both of them are good reads and if you follow the advice contained in them, you will be well on your way to having good sound and good fun with your gear.
