2. 

Attach the Wall Brackets to structure. You must provide attachment
hardware and ensure the attachment method and structure are 
capable of supporting the intended load. Position the Wall Bracket 
weld nuts left or right to allow clearance for later insertion of the 
Retainer Bolt.

3.  Ensuring they are oriented properly, install the two Enclosure

Brackets on the loudspeaker. Insert and hand-tighten the supplied 3/8-16 
Enclosure Bracket Bolt and Lock Washer for  each Enclosure Bracket.

4.  Lift the enclosure onto the installed Wall Brackets.

WARNING

: Use at least two people for lifting enclosure onto the

brackets.

5.  Insert and snugly tighten at least one of the supplied 1/4-20 Retainer

Bolt and Lock Washer through the side of either of the Wall and 
Enclosure Brackets. This prevents the enclosure from being lifted off 
the Wall Brackets.

6.  Securely tighten each 3/8-16 Enclosure Bracket Bolt to lock the 

enclosure at the desired horizontal angle.

The vertical coverage is determined by programming the loudspeaker’s
digital signal processing.

Use the DSAPilot to determine the desired coverage. The DSAPilot calculates
and optimizes the signal processing required to achieve the desired results.

High pass/low pass filters, parametric EQ, delay, and gain are user adjustable
for each of the two inputs.
