Assembly (continued)

5.

Slide the two joining bars

into the channels as shown. 

Master / Slave Settings

The next step is to electrically link the modules together and verify the
Master/Slave assignment is correct  The bottom module always func-
tions as the Master and the upper modules as Slaves. The module 
directly above the Master module is identified as Slave 1 and the mod-
ule above it as Slave 2. .All incoming signal and AC power connec-
tions should be made to the Master module. 

Plug one end of the short CAT5e linking cable into the lower intercon-
nect socket on the Master (lower) module and the other end into the
upper socket on the upper module. Then plug one end of the short AC
power cable into the looping power socket on the lower module and
the other end into the power socket on the upper module. Follow the
same procedure to connect a third module, if one is provided.

The next step is to set the two dip switches that identify each module.
Set the Master switches first; The graphic directly below the two dip
switches shows the proper setting for a Master module (both switches
in the down position). 

Then set the Slave module(s) dip switches following the settings
shown in the graphic. Note that the Slave #3 switch is for possible 
future use.

Note: If you connected power to the array before setting the dip
switches, you will need to turn it off or disconnect it at the source and
then reconnect it before the dip switch settings will take effect. When
properly set the digital readouts will both read 20 in a dual array and
30 in a three module array.

6.

Lock the joining bars into

place with the short Quik 
Release pins to complete the
physical assembly.

Note: If you are assembling a “triple stack”, follow the same procedure to place the third module on top of the second module with one ex-
ception. The woofer sections of the second and third modules should be joined together. If in doubt, refer to page 55 for proper module ori-
entation.  

The procedure for mounting an ICL-R array onto an IC215S-R subwoofer is the same. The only difference is the the array’s rear cylinder
sleeve drops into the socket on either the top or the end of the subwoofer. When mounting a stack (two ICL-R arrays) on top of one or two
subwoofers, it is best to first mount the lower line array module onto the subwoofer and then attach the top line array. It’s easier and safer.

Do not attempt to mount a stacked ICL-R array onto a subwoofer standing vertically. The resulting assembly is unstable
