Rigging concept and components
2.4 Rigging mechanism of the cabinets
The cabinets are mechanically connected to the Mounting frames/
Mounting adapter and subsequent loudspeakers using the Front
links attached to both sides of the front rigging strands of the
cabinets and the central Splay/Rear link on the rear rigging strand
of the cabinet.
All necessary rigging components are mounted to the cabinets and
slide or fold out when needed.
In principle, the Front link mechanism applies to both the TOP and
SUB cabinets. The Front links are spring loaded and therefore
extend automatically as soon as the respective Locking pins are
released and pulled out.
