You can install the device standing or hanging. When in use, the device must be mounted at a solid surface or clamped to an approved truss.
Installation WARNING! Risk of injury caused by falling objects Make sure that the installation complies with the standards and rules that apply in your country. Always secure the device with a secondary safety attachment, such as a safety cable or a safety chain. CAUTION! Risk of injury due to heavy weight Due to the heavy weight of the device, at least two persons are required for trans‐ port and installation.
Installation NOTICE! Use of stands When mounting the device onto a stand, ensure that the stand is in a safe and stable position and that the weight of the device does not exceed the maximum permissible load capacity of the stand. 4.1 Tips on handling speakers We recommend you to set up the speakers in a way, that the sound signals can reach the audi‐ ence unobstructedly. It will often be helpful to mount the speakers on tripods.
Installation 4.2 Hanging the speaker box To hang the speaker box on special mounting devices (aka ‘flying’), top, bottom and sides of the box have M6 threads (item no. 299659) or M8 threads (item no. 299657 and 299658). Safety eyes can be screwed into these threads. Check the secure connection of the safety eyelets with the box carefully, before you use it in ‘flying mode’. 4.3 Pin assignment You may use XLR and jack connectors with either balanced or unbalanced pinout.
Installation XLR connections for signal inputs/outputs XLR panel sockets are provided for signal inputs. XLR panel plugs are provided for signal out‐ puts. The figure and the table show the XLR pin assignment.
Installation Jack plug for signal in and out‐ puts The figure and the table show the pin assignment for ¼-inch jack plugs.
