Follow the sequence in the
fi
gure for
fi
xing the
fl
y bar at the
fi
rst box. Usually this is the
fi
rst step before li ing up the system. Be careful to insert
properly all the locking pins (1)(2) and (3)(4) then the shackle (5) in the right holes as speci
fi
ed by the aiming so ware.
When li ing the system always proceed gradually step by step, paying
a en on to secure the
fl
y bar to the box (and the box to the other boxes)
before pulling up the system: this makes easier to insert properly the
locking pins. Also when the system is released down, unlock gradually
the pins.
During the li ing be very careful to not let the cables enter the space
between one enclosure and the other, as their compression could cut
them.
Please note that the Rear Link Bar of the SW215FP cabinet has two holes
(see
fi
gure):
The hole signed as
nr.1
must be used for
SW215FP-SW215FP
sub-sub
link.
The hole signed as
nr.2
must be used for
SW215FP-AX2065P
sub-sat
link.
Wind loads
When planning an open-air event it is essen al to obtain current weather and wind informa on. When loudspeaker arrays are
fl
own in an open-air
environment, possible wind e
ff
ects must be taken into account. Wind load produces addi onal dynamic forces ac ng on the rigging components
and the suspension, which may lead to a dangerous situa on. If according to the forecast wind forces higher than 5 b (29-38 Km/h) are possible,
the following ac ons have to be taken:
- The actual on-site wind speed has to be monitored permanently. Be aware that wind speed typically increases with height above ground.
- Suspension and securing points of the array should be designed to support double the sta c load in order to withstand any addi onal dynamic
forces.
WARNING!
Flying loudspeakers overhead at wind forces higher than 6 b
Ō
(39-49 Km/h) is not recommended.
If the wind force exceeds 7 b (50-61 Km/h) there is a risk of mechanical damage to the components which may lead to a dangerous situa on
for persons in the vicinity of the
fl
own array.
- Stop the event and make sure that no person remains in the vicinity of the array.
- Lower and secure the array.
