Installation Options

Installation Options and Accessories

1. Mounting bracket (included)
2. MBPWR-50 pan-and-tilt bracket (optional)

Preparing the Weather-resistant Input Cover
The weather-resistant input cover is designed for three different wiring scenarios (see above). To change the configuration of the input cover to support your wiring scenario, cut along the perforation on the rubber conduit.
Note: Indoor-only applications do not require use of the input cover.

Note: If installing the loudspeaker with the rubber conduit facing upward, it is the installer’s responsibility to seal against water ingress into the Euroblock connector.

Note: If using the wide open rubber conduit configuration, it is the installer’s responsibility to seal against water ingress into the Euroblock connector.

Wire Gauge
The DesignMax DM5SE loudspeaker is designed to work with 18 AWG (0.8 mm2) to 14 AWG (2.1 mm2) size wire only.

Connection Diagrams
Expose six millimeters (1/4 inch) of bare wire to attach to the terminals.

Note: The loudspeaker is not rated for use with a rigid conduit.
The loudspeaker is suitable for a flexible conduit or wiring connection only.

Using a Safety Cable
Some regional construction codes require the use of a secondary method of securing loudspeakers to support structures to provide additional safety. Choose a mounting position, method, and hardware consistent with local building codes and regulations.
A safety cable can be attached to the loudspeaker using the threaded insert on the back of the enclosure.
The insert is sized for an M6 screw (not included) with a depth of 15 millimeters (0.59 inches).

Loudspeaker Orientation

Choose the loudspeaker orientation best suited for your installation.

1. Horizontal
2. Vertical

Note: Installation in close proximity to cooking surfaces where the loudspeaker may be directly exposed to cooking oils, such as in commercial cooking environments, may decrease the performance or functionality of the loudspeaker.

Installing the Bracket

Note: When choosing an installation location, at least one of the mounting bracket’s attachment points must be secured to a support structure. Attachment points not secured to a support structure must be secured using appropriate hardware for the installation. Choose fasteners that are consistent with all local building codes and requirements.

Note: Choose appropriate fasteners to support the weight of the loudspeaker (4.75 kg [10.5 lb]).

1. Mark the drill holes.
2. Drill four holes (sized for appropriate fasteners) into the wall.
3. Secure the bracket to the wall with four screws (not included). Note: Use M5 or #10 sized screw

Wiring the Connector

1. Feed the wires through the center hole of the bracket.
2. Remove the connector from the loudspeaker.
3. For outdoor installations, insert the wires through the bottom of the input cover. See Preparing the Weatherresistant Input Cover on page 4.
4. Wire the connector. For wiring information, see Wiring the Loudspeaker on page 5.

Important Mounting Information

1. Bracket lock tabs: Used to secure the loudspeaker angle.
2. Grille release tabs: Used to secure the grille to the loudspeaker.
3. Lock forks: Used to secure the loudspeaker to the mounting bracket.
4. Angle labels (on bracket): Identify your desired angle position.

Installing the Loudspeaker

WARNING: Failure to follow the steps below could lead to an unsafe mounting condition, which could create a falling hazard

1. Remove the lock forks from the lock tabs. Make sure not to pull the lock fork tethers out of the loudspeaker.

2. Attach the loudspeaker to the bracket, adjust the loudspeaker to 45°, and lock the tabs into place.

3. Attach the wired connector to the loudspeaker.

4. For outdoor installations, place the weatherresistant input cover over the connector and press it firmly against the loudspeaker to create a tight seal. See Preparing the Weather-resistant
   Input Cover on page 4.

5. Unlock the tabs and adjust the loudspeaker to your desired angle. Make sure to support the weight of the loudspeaker while you adjust the loudspeaker angle.
   Note: The angle of the loudspeaker can be adjusted to 0°, 15°, 30°, or 45°.

6. Lock the tabs into place.

7. Press the lock forks onto the lock tabs until the forks sit securely around the tabs.

Adjusting the Logo

You can rotate the Bose logo to align with your loudspeaker orientation. With one hand, press the button on the back of the grille. Rotate the logo with the other hand. The logo can be rotated clockwise or counterclockwise.
