2.1 Suspension options

The center bar of the Flying adapter is equipped with a total of 19
holes to allow for the suspension of the array and the setting of
different vertical angles.
The holes are numbered in increments of five.
Single or dual pickpoint operation
The array can be suspended using one or two E6507 1t shackle(s)
and appropriate lifting devices or steel wire ropes.
In "Single pickpoint operation", the overall vertical aiming of
the entire array is defined by using a particular hole of the hole
index on the center bar.
The corresponding hole position is calculated using the d&b
ArrayCalc simulation software. For this purpose, ArrayCalc can be
downloaded at www.dbaudio.com
Note: Please note that in ArrayCalc, you have to go to the
«Rigging plot» page as the «Sources» page only indicates
hole numbers for the Flying frame, not for the Flying adapter.
Provided the corresponding array is selected on this page, the
hole closest to the pickpoint and the exact distance in cm/inch
are displayed in the «Main» array section Þ
«Pickpoints and load» (last entry).
In "Dual pick point operation", the vertical aiming of the
entire array is set by trimming the respective lifting devices.
Z5147 Rota clamp option
Alternatively, the array can be suspended and horizontally aligned
from a single pickpoint using the d&b Z5147 Rota clamp. The
clamp allows the load to be attached to overhead bars or truss
with a tube diameter of up to 51 mm (2").
Attachment
Choose the appropriate hole position on the center bar according
to the ArrayCalc calculation and attach the clamp
correspondingly.
Note: Please observe the relevant mounting instructions
which are enclosed with the clamp.

2.2 Locking pins

WARNING!
Potential risk of personal injury and/or
damage to material!
The steel wires of the Locking pins are not intended to carry any
load. The cabinet's weight must only be carried by the Front and
Splay/Rear links in conjunction with the front and rear rigging
strands of the loudspeaker cabinets and the rigging components.
Ensure all Locking pins are fully inserted and securely locked
before lifting any load.
