Mounting through a suspended ceiling grid

On the rear of the enclosure install and tighten two 3/8-16-thread forged

steel eyebolts (one is included) with a 3/8" flat washer under each. Cut

two pieces of ordinary drop ceiling L angle (wall track) 23 3/4" long and

screw them to the top and bottom of the enclosure with 3/4"-long sheet

metal screws, as shown in Figure 10. Connect all of the wires and

suspend the enclosure, face down, by the eyebolts in accordance with

accepted safe rigging practice. Adjust the length of the rigging cables so

the tips of the installed L angles just rest on the ceiling cross-tees. This

stabilizes the enclosure from rocking. Trim the ceiling panel to fit the new

opening(s) and drop into place. It is the installer’s responsibility to assure

that the chosen rigging points are strong enough to support the load.

Warning: Never try to install this speaker in a suspended

ceiling without proper rigging support!

Floor Mounting

The EVID™ 12.1P may be placed directly on the floor in a corner or on

its side along a straight wall by simply attaching the four rubber mounting

feet to the side that will sit on the floor.

Step 5: Test System Operation

After all connections are made test the complete system operation.

Appendix C on page 10 contains a troubleshooting guide to assist in

locating a variety of speaker related problems.
