● Predict direct SPL levels and frequency response at any point in any venue ● Calculate mechanical load ● Factor environment conditions into the calculations ● Supports multiple EAW products ● Arrays of EAW loudspeakers can be entered manually or created with embedded auto designer 4.2 ENGINEERING DESIGN Isophasic Waveguide The Isophasic Waveguide transforms the acoustic input source to a true Isophasic output.
This is achieved by adjusting the array curvature as described above. 4.5 USER ADJUSTMENTS 4.5.1 Equalization EAW recommends that 1/3 octave or careful use of parametric equalization be used to modify performance to accommodate a particular program, venue characteristics, or personal taste.

4. Safety: Use adequate safety precautions and back-up systems. 6.3 Rigging Hardware and Accessories Rigging EAW loudspeakers will invariably require hardware not supplied by us. Various types of load-rated hardware are available from a variety of third-party sources. There are a number of companies specializing in manufacturing hardware for, designing, and installing rigging systems.
6.4 Suspension Procedures 6.4.1 Flow Arrays with Sub 1. Attach stinger to the frame using 2x M10 bolts w/washer on inside and nut on outside. 2. Place flybar on top of sub and use M8 X 30 bolts to rig front and rear positions.
Page 16
3. Attach shackle to desired stinger position and raise array. 4. Place second sub on surface underneath array and lower to attach using M8 X 22 threaded bolts to front and rear rigging. 5. Repeat to use desired sub amount in array. 6.
Page 17
8. Raise array and place first KF810 array item underneath, then lower array to KF. 9. Using M8 x 30 bolt to secure front rigging, then M10 bolt to secure rear rigging angle. 10. To connect a second KF810, repeat the same process but with M8 X 22 threaded bolt on front rigging.
6.4.2 Flow Arrays without Sub 1. Attach stinger to the frame using 2x M10 bolts with washer on inside and nut on outside. 2. Place flybar on top of KF810 and use M8 X 30 bolts to rig front position. 3.
6. Using M8 x 22 bolt to secure front rigging, then M10 bolt to secure rear rigging angle. 7. To connect a second KF810, repeat the same process but with M8 X 22 threaded bolt on front rigging. 6.5 Ground Stacking Procedures WARNING: Ground-stacked arrays, especially the maximum recommended arrays, requires assembly by personnel qualified to ensure adequate stability from tip over for the particular application.
providing a balanced system for most music applications. Quantities may need to be adjusted up or down for specific situations. 6.5.1 Ground-Stack with Subwoofer 1. Place your subwoofer on the ground. 2. To attach additional subs, lift sub on top of sub beneath and use M8 x 22 bolts to secure front and rear rigging.

4. Place the first KF810 on top of frame, and secure front rigging with M8 x 30 bolts. 5. Using the rigging arm on the frame, choose splay angle, and secure rigging with M10 bolt.
6. Repeat this process to add additional KF810s, but with M8 x 22 threaded bolt on front rigging and rigging arm on module beneath. 6.5.2 Ground-Stack without Subwoofer 1. Place frame on the ground. 2. Place the first KF810 on top of frame, and secure front rigging with m8x30 bolt 3.
