Truss or Other Support System

If you are mounting the fixture(s) on a truss or another type of support, verify that the truss or
support will handle the weight of all the devices you are mounting. The Studio Command fixture
weighs 1200/700 Model - 24.9 kg (55 lbs) H Model - 21.7 kg (48 lb).

Safety Cable

High End Systems strongly recommends that you use a safety cable when mounting any fixture.
You must supply your own safety cable and verify that the cable is capable of supporting the
weight of the fixture. You can order galvanized safety cables from your High End Systems
dealer/distributor (see Related Products and Accessories on page 4).

Clamp

You must supply your own clamps and verify the
clamp is capable of supporting the weight of the
fixture. You can order deluxe C-clamps for a two-
inch truss from your High End Systems dealer/
distributor (see Related Products and Accessories
on page 4).

Mounting Procedure

Note: Due to the wide variety of possible lighting
designs, High End Systems cannot make
specific mounting recom-mendations.
Consider the following procedure as a
suggested guideline only.
To mount Studio Command fixtures on a truss:
1. Disconnect power to the fixture. If the fixture
has been operating, allow the fixture to cool
before handling.
2. Always stand on a firm, stable surface when
mounting a fixture to its support. The fixture
should be at a height where you can
comfortably work on it, and should either be
resting on a stable surface, or held securely.
3. Attach suitable clamps through the center
holes on the base of the fixture. Install two
locking washers per clamp when attaching the
clamps to the fixture's base.
4. Tighten the clamps firmly to the fixture's base and to the support.
5. Loop one or more suitable safety cables around the support, through the side holes in the
fixture's base, and around the fixture's handles.
