Whenever a cluster of only
units is to be assembled the procedure will be as
follows:
First step will be to attach the bumper
to the hoist. The chain sling needs to be attached
to the structure using the shackle provided with
the grid. The shackle will be inserted into the hole
recommended by the
software.
The next step will be to mechanically connect
the first to the . In order to do so
rotate the connecting links (1) and then insert the
safety pins through the labeled holes to select the
splay angle between the
and the grid
(2). Now both connecting links must be inserted
into the receptacles on the
(3). Once this
has been done two more safety pins have to be
inserted to secure the boxes (4). It is highly
advisable to check that all of the safety pins have
been correctly inserted.

Before installing the system it
is advisable to run a simulation using the
software utilizing the venue dimensions.
This way we can determine the needs that should
be met by the rigging structures such as hoists,
cranes,
beams, rigging points, etc. Besides
providing weight information, the program also
provides users with splay angle information, safety
pin positions and coverage predictions.
It is extremely important to assure that each
and every one of the aforementioned structures is
capable of supporting a superior load than that of
the complete system.
Inspection is the next step after planning and
acquiring all the necessary parts needed to elevate
the systems. All parts, including the hardware
attached to the enclosure, the safety pins, etc.
should be thoroughly inspected before each use.
Units exhibiting deformations, cracks or any other
defect should be replaced with new units.
It is important to establish an inspection routine
for the complete rigging system before each event
or installation as well as establishing the maximum
load specifications of the hoists to be used.
Rigging should be carried out by experts
familiar with the way the system functions and
their characteristics.
On occasions it may be convenient to have
additional tie down points to impede the array
from twisting or swinging.

The units can be installed in a
number of ways. Typically several
units would be assembled to form a line array
cluster, but it can also be used alone, as a frontfill
or as an under- balcony unit. A wide range of
accessories and uses are available, and have been
described in the paragraphs below.
