INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- To obtain the best acoustic intelligibility in high reverberant spaces the ACO12T must be aimed to point directly at the head of the listeners, carefully evaluate the dimension of column speaker, the best position where the loudspeaker can be placed on the wall, the angle required and where is the best position to fix the support, see figure 1 and 2.
- To mount the support in the back of the column firstly remove the top cover of the column unscrewing the two screws that fix it, separate the two brackets of the support and assemble at the speaker bracket the supplied nuts washer and screws, insert the bracket into the slot on the back of the column, as shown in figure 3 and put back the top cover.
- In the figure 4 is shown how to drill the wall and how to mount the bracket on the wall.
- Remember to fix tightly all screws after you have aimed the speaker as shown in figure 5.
- As shown in figure 6, remove the bottom cover and insert the speaker line cables into the PG-9 cable glands (please note that also the latest cable gland of the system must be filled with a false cable to maintain the sealing of the enclosure). Use a proper speaker cable with two insulated wires in a single jacket to maintain the IP44 properties. The PG-8 cable glands can accept cables with overall diameter from 4mm to 8mm.
Take out the ceramic terminal and connect the speaker line wires to the ceramic terminal, choosing the right power to be sent to the speaker and taking care to follow the +/- polarity.
The powers shown on the terminal are referred to a 100V constant voltage line, in the case of connection to a 70V line, consider that these values will be halved (÷2).
