Setting rear link angles

This section provides the steps to set rear link angles for the X1/X2 full-range elements and
the X12-125F flying subwoofer.
The rear link angle is selected by choosing corresponding holes in the white ANGLE SELECT
sections of the rear rigging on each side as determined by the Electro-Voice line array
configuration software. Unless the rigging is locked into a rigid configuration by secondary
pins in the lower black ANGLE LOCK sections, the elements always default to 0° when lifted.
Use of the bottom pull-up grid accessory enables the array to be easily compressed with each
element stopping at its pre-selected splay angle. Smaller arrays may be rigidly pinned by lifting
the rear of each element until it hits the pre-selected angle stop, then inserting a second pin
on each side into the appropriate hole in the ANGLE LOCK section. There should be no
fumbling for pin holes because when lifted, the rigging will stop at the pre-selected position.
