The user must determine the load requirements, dynamic loading, and any other contributing factors affecting the loudspeaker installation.
2. INTRODUCTION This bracket allows the SMS1990 loudspeaker to be mounted to the wall, and electrically connected in the same operation. The bracket can be wired and mounted in place, and the loudspeaker added at a later time. Once the bracket has been wired and mounted to the wall, the SMS1990 can be quickly pressed onto the input connector and held securely in place. It can be easily adjusted in vertical and horizontal angle, and locked in place with a locking wheel.
3. INSTALLATION Unpacking and Inspection Visually inspect the outside of the shipping carton and check for any damage. After unpacking, if you find concealed damage to the bracket, save the packing materials for the carrier’s inspection, notify the carrier immediately, and file a shipping damage claim. Although EAW Commercial will help in any way possible, it is always the responsibility of the receiving party to file any shipping damage claim. The carrier will help prepare and file this claim.
CF-1TX Electrical Installation Before the clip-fit bracket is mounted to the wall, the electrical connections to your system should be made. Note: Observe all local and national codes when installing the CF-1TX. All connections must be made with the power amplifier turned off. The following examples of 70 V and 100 V connections show an EAW Commercial CAM160, a typical mixer/amplifier. Its speaker-level output is a screw terminal strip, with outputs for 25 V, 70 V, 100 V, ground, and 4 ohm.
Selecting the power tap (CF-1TX only): Make sure the power amplifier is turned off when adjusting the power taps or making connections. 1. Select the desired power tap by turning the switch with a flat-ended screwdriver. If you are using a 70 V system, the wattage ratings are: 4, 8, 16, and 32 W. If you are using a 100 V system, the available wattage ratings are: 8, 16, and 32 W. Make sure that you do not overload the amplifier.
CF-1LZ Electrical Installation Note: Observe all local and national codes when installing the CF-1LZ clip-fit bracket. All connections to the loudspeaker must be made with the power amplifier turned off. The following example of a low-impedance connection uses a EAW Commercial CAZ800 amplifier. This amplifier uses a screw-terminal output.
CF-1LZ and CF-1TX Mechanical Installation Mounting the clip-fit brackets to the wall: a. Mount the wall bracket to the desired surface, in this vertical orientation only. Note that the bracket has two mounting holes with vertical spacing that allows them to be used with a standard wall J-box. The hardware for securing the wall bracket to a mounting surface or a J-box is not supplied. It is recommended that you consult a rigging professional to determine the proper hardware for mounting the bracket.
Mounting the loudspeaker onto a bracket: a. Once the clip-fit bracket has been wired and secured to the wall, press the loudspeaker onto the input connector, until it clicks into place. Make sure it is fitted on correctly. It is possible to fit it on upside-down, but it will not click in place, or be securely held on the bracket, or make an electrical connection.
