60 DMX512 REFERENCE GUIDE
Series 300 Hanging Hardware: VL5 / VL6 / VLM
All VL5, VL6, and VLM luminaires are provided with a truss hook and a safety cable.
Series 300 luminaires can be hung horizontally or vertically from any structure designed to accommodate the load
created by this moving luminaire. In standard hanging applications, the DMX512 utilizes a Series 300 double truss
hook, which is bolted to the pan tube. The hook can be oriented in 45 degree increments to provide flexible mounting.
(See
"Standard Hang" on page 61.)
A special third-point truss hook, which mounts to the pan tube in addition to the double hook, is available to provide a
third point of support. (See
"Three-Point Hang" on page 63.)
To attach a double truss hook:
Step 1. Determine type of installation and required orientation of truss hook.
Step 2. At pan tube, attach truss hook using four 5/16-18 x 1" bolts and 5/16-18 nuts (Figure 3-11).
Step 3. Ensure truss hook is secure.
