LX-F6 For a correct and safe Flying Frame usage for the Lynx LX Line Array we have created this instruction manual. Read this manual carefully before flying your Lynx system. Observe technical data, “Rainbow” software data and do not exceed maximum load capacities and usage conditions indicated in this manual.
TECHNICAL DATA The flying frame for the LYNX Line Array is compised of an upper support (SV-LXF6), constructed with steel and on which all acoustic cabinets are hung, one beneath the other correspondingly. They are supported via 4 points with 2 lateral plates incorporated in each cabinet and with two special adjustable steel pieces in each plaque, S1.
If the Lynx is installed outdoors check that the support structure will be stable against the wind strength. If the Lynx is used outdoors secure it with cable to avoid pendular movement. Do not stand underneath the system.
Fix the shackles to the elevation system (e.g motors, lifts) and elevate enough so as to fix the SVLX-F6 on to the first LX-F6 cabinet so that the S1 link of support, fit in to position in the upper lateral plates of the cabinet (1).
