Step 5: Wire the Speaker

Connect the wires to the speaker using the detachable 4 pole phoenix connector as
illustrated in Figure 10. The 4 connections allow for convenient loop through wiring to
the next speaker system wired in the system.

Step 6: Secure the Seismic Tab Connection Point

The rear of the enclosure includes an eyebolt for connection to a seismic restraint.
Connect it to a properly rated hardware fitting that is securely installed independently of
the SAM™ bracket. Maintain a 12" (305mm) maximum length of slack or less. Even if
your local construction code does not require the installation of secondary support, its
use is highly recommended as additional security.

10) contains a troubleshooting table to assist in locating many speaker-related
problems.

Your Zx1™ system has been designed and manufactured to provide years of durability
and reliable service. No routine maintenance is necessary. Units may be cleaned by
