Physical installation

Mounting in a rig

Both the DMX 5.3 Splitter

and the RDM 5.5 Splitter

can be flown in a rig. To

install them in a rig:

1. Fasten a suitable rigging

clamp for the truss or

suspension bar to the

Splitter with a minimum

grade 8.8 M12 bolt as

shown in Figure 6.

Warning! The bolt

thread must protrude

10 mm (0.4 in.)

minimum and 25 mm

(0.9 in.) maximum into

the Splitter when the

bolt is tight.

2. Fasten the rigging clamp

securely to a truss or

suspension bar.

3. Loop a safety cable that

is approved for the

weight it will support

through the eyelet in the

back of the Splitter and

around the truss or

suspension bar.

Fastening to a surface

Both the DMX 5.3 Splitter and the RDM 5.5 Splitter can be fastened to a

flat, stable surface in any orientation. To fasten to a surface,

1. Fasten the supplied L-brackets to the outer ends of the Splitter using

the eight supplied Torx 10 M3 x 4 thread-forming screws as shown at

A in Figure 7. The L-brackets can be fastened as shown at A or

rotated through 180°, allowing the Splitter to be fastened on or under a

surface with four suitable screws.
