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.

2.4.1  Front link mechanism
TOP cabinets
1. Release both Locking pins.

The Front link extends automatically.

2. Reinsert Locking pin 

[1] into the upper hole.

Locking pin [2] is used to connect the first cabinets to the

frame and/or to interconnect the cabinets respectively.

SUB cabinets

Þ

Release the upper Locking pin.

The Front link extends automatically.

The Front link mechanism of the SUB cabinets provides four

different settings:
1. SUB to Frame (

Þ

 Fig. 1).

2. SUB to SUB with 0° splay between the cabinets (

Þ

 Fig. 2).

3. SUB to SUB with 2.5° splay (free) between the cabinets

(

Þ

 Fig. 3).

4. SUB to SUB with 2.5° splay (blocked) between the cabinets

(

Þ

 Fig. 4).

This setting is used to prevent the cabinets from folding up.
