Installation and Wiring
Step 3: Attach Wiring to the Ceramic Connector
Insert the bare end of wire into the appropriate connector terminals as
described below and screw down the hold-down screw until tight, using a
small screwdriver, as shown in Figure 6.
Step 4: Connect an Auxiliary Support Line
note the support ring on the back of the speaker. The ring allows for con-
nection to a independent and secure anchor point, as shown in Figure 7.
Construction codes often require the use of this secondary support point.
InSTALLATIOn nOTE: CEILInG TILE
When mounting the units into 2’x2’ or 2’x4’ suspended ceiling tiles, DO nOT
install them in lightweight fiberglass-type tiles without full secondary support
for the speaker as noted in Step 4. Such tiles are not designed to support
any substantial weight. Speaker installation without secondary support will
cause the tile to sag and distort, even with the tile bridge installed. The sec-
ondary support line at the rear of the speaker MUST be strung taut in these
situations and MUST remove most of the force of the speaker on the tile to
ensure that the speaker does not deform the tile.
