Vi rigging components and arrays
Vi arrays may consist of a combination of Vi8 and Vi12

loudspeakers and/or Vi-SUB cardioid subwoofers.

Cabinets are mechanically connected using the rigging strands on

both sides of the cabinet front and a central strand at the rear of

the cabinet. All necessary rigging components are mounted to the

cabinet and fold out or slide out when needed.

Note: The Splay link of the Vi-TOP cabinet is designed as a

straight link with drilled holes, as shown in the graphic

opposite. For visual reasons the Splay link of the last cabinet

of an array can easily be removed.

A detailed description of the Vi rigging components is given in the

Vi Rigging manual which is provided with the Z5387.xxx

Mounting frames.

A detailed description of planning and designing V-Series arrays is

given in the technical information "TI 385 d&b Line array design,

d&b ArrayCalc" which is provided with the V Flying frame.

The d&b ArrayCalc simulation software can be downloaded from

the d&b website at

2.2. Connections
The cabinet is fitted with NLT4 F/M connectors. All four pins of

both connectors are wired in parallel. The cabinet uses the pin

assignments 1+/1–. Pins 2+/2– are designated to actively driven

subwoofers. Using one connector as the input, the second

connector allows for direct connection to a second cabinet.

Cabinets with the weather resistant option (WR) are equipped with
a fixed input cable (PG type, H07-RN-F, 2 x 2.5 mm

d&b LoadMatch
Starting with the D80 amplifier platform, the LoadMatch function

enables the amplifier to electrically compensate for the properties

of the loudspeaker cable used without the need for an additional

sense wire. For applicable loudspeakers, LoadMatch is therefore

independent of the connector type used.
