• Verify the truss or support will handle the weight of all the devices you are mounting.
Cyberlight fixture weights are listed in the section titled "Physical Specifications" on page
1-3.
• The use of user-supplied safety cable is strongly recommended. You must supply your
own safety cable and you must verify the cable is capable of supporting the weight of the
fixture as listed in the section titled "Physical Specifications" on page 1-3. You can order
galvanized safety cables from your High End Systems dealer/distributor (part number
12040001). Also see Figure 2-6 on page 2-11.
• You must supply your own clamps to attach the fixture to the support. You can attach one
or two clamps to the Cyberlight yoke. Verify that the clamp(s) you use are capable of
supporting the weight of the fixture as listed in the section titled "Physical Specifications"
on page 1-3. You can order deluxe C-clamps for a two-inch truss from your High End
Systems dealer/distributor (part number 55000004). Also see Figure 2-5 on page 2-11.
• Make sure the fixture cannot be rotated all the way around (360
good way to do this.) Allowing the fixture to rotate 360
bolts.
Because of the variety of conceivable lighting designs, you should consider the procedure
below as a suggested guideline only. High End Systems cannot make specific
recommendations for your particular lighting design or venue.
You should use three people to mount each Cyberlight fixture: two people to hold the fixture
while it is being secured in place, and one person to secure the fixture to its support and to
attach clamps and safety cables.
Always stand on a firm, stable surface. The fixture should be at a height where you can
comfortably work on it, and should also be resting on a stable surface. Do not try to hold up
the fixture yourself while you are working on it; as Step 1 suggests, the ideal method is to have
a crew of three people to install the fixture.
Attach a suitable clamp through one of the holes on top of the Cyberlight fixture yoke. If you
are attaching one clamp, use the middle hole on the yoke. If you are attaching two clamps (as
shown in Figure 2-5), attach one clamp to each of the holes on either side of the center hole.
Use locking washers when attaching the clamp to the yoke.
