To connect a ShowMatch Array Frame or T-Bar Array Frame to a full-range loudspeaker module:
1. Use Bose® Modeler® software or the Bose Array Tool to determine appropriate rigging points on array
frames for required aiming angles, and to confirm that array does not exceed load limits of frame. For
more information on Modeler and the Bose Array Tool, see
pro.Bose.com
.
2. Place array frame directly under chain motors.
3. Attach included frame shackle adapters to array frame at rigging points determined by software.
4. Lower chain motors and attach chains to shackle adapters installed on array frame.
5. Raise array frame to a height slightly greater than that of the first (top) module to be installed.
6. With one person per side, place first module directly under suspended array frame.
7. Raise the links on module: Remove the pins, slide the link switch from the STOW position to the LINK
position, and replace the pins. See Fig. 1.
8. Lower array frame onto first module.
9. Adjust module position to align pin holes of module and frame.
10. Insert two front pins (one on each side), then insert rear center pin to secure module to frame. See Fig.
2.
11. Raise array frame to a height slightly greater than that of the next module.
12. With one person per side, place next module directly under suspended array.
13. Lower array onto next module.
14. Align pin holes of second (bottom) module to pin holes of first (top) module.
15. Insert two front pins (one on each side), then insert rear center pin to secure .
16. Repeat steps to install additional modules in the array. Do not exceed load limits of frame.
17. Connect field wiring, test loudspeaker operation, and then elevate array assembly to final operating
position.
