Installing the Array frame. 1. The array frame is attached to the internal rigging of the Compact Array using the included quick Release pins. Warning: Do not use any substitute for these pins. Place the entire frame on top of the Compact Array and flip up the drop levers (B) found on both sides of the speaker to be received by the mounting frame arms.
Connection Cables Take care of the connector cables, always holding them by the connectors and avoiding knots and twists when coiling them: This gives the advantage of increasing their life and reliability, which is always to your advantage. Periodically check that your cables are in good condition, that they are correctly wired and that all their contacts are perfectly efficient: a great number of problems (faulty contacts, ground hum, discharges, etc.) are caused entirely by using unsuitable or faulty cables.
