INSTALLATION
PRE INSTALL TEST
It’s always a good idea to test the column array as a complete unit before it is installed to make sure all the connections
were properly made and all the transducers are working. If there is a problem, its a lot easier to find and correct before the
unit is physically installed.
Use one of the 3-pin connectors supplied with the assemby to connect audio to the loudspeaker and the power cord to
connect the power. You do not need the digital control cable to conduct a simple audio test.
Notice that these connections can be made inside any one of the access chambers. This Iconyx feature gives you a choice
of where the audio, power and digital control connections are made. You can, for example, bring the power into the bottom
module and the audio and digital control lines into the top module.
CABLING REQUIRED
POWER
Your Iconyx column was supplied with a 6-foot AC Power cord with IEC connectors
.
Note that the column(s) do not include a power on/off switch and you will have to make sure an external power on/off
switch is provided. Each module, however, does include a self-restoring circuit breaker as protection against damage in the
event of an internal failure.
Power requirements for Iconyx columns are listed below.
IC8A and IC16A-8:
Universal 100/240 VAC, 50/60 Hz; 120 Watts
IC16A and IC32A-16:
Universal 100/240 VAC, 50/60 Hz; 240 Watts
IC24A:
Universal 100/240 VAC, 50/60 Hz; 360 Watts
IC32A:
Universal 100/240 VAC, 50/60 Hz; 480 Watts
WARNING:
1. The AC mains must be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.
2. To remove power from the Iconyx column, disconnect the AC power cord.
3. If the knockout on the rear cover is used during installation, a means of preventing damage to the AC power
cord must be provided.

cable loop from column to column.
