7 Installation 

 

Before installing your TheatreCom portable LED stage lighting, it is worth setting up one or two 

LED 

floodlights

 with a

 Lighting control

 to become familiar with the connections and controls. 

 

7.1 Mounting Arrangements 

 

The bracket fitted to your 

LED Floodlights

 can be used to mount the light in several ways. 

The light can be fitted to a TheatreCom TL-B base and placed on the floor. 
 
The light can be hung from a standard 50mm lighting bar. You are advised to fit a safety chain 
in order to ensure the light is secure. 
 
The bracket has screw holes which allow the light to be screwed directly into a wall, ceiling or 
beam. Once again, it may be appropriate to consider a safety chain or other restraint. 
 

7.2 Positioning the lights 

 
As a guide, one 

LED floodlight

 will illuminate approximately 1m of stage. However, more lights will 

improve your lighting coverage. 

The 

LED floodlights

 have a beam angle of approximately 30 degrees from centre. Allowing the beams 

to cross will minimise shadows and improve the overall lighting effect. If you are using floor-mounted 
lights to light a stage, consider adjusting the angle of the outer lights as shown below.
