8. Coverage Pattern of the Line 212 --- SP Systems
The Line 212 can be operated in a vertical or horizontal position. The coverage pattern
of the speaker can be adapted to special needs by a 90° rotatable horn.
The following graphics demonstrate how to recognize how the built-in horn emits in a
standing speaker: To determine the coverage pattern of the high frequency horn,
shine a flashlight through the front covering at the level of the horn. You will find a
silver stripe that determines the position and coverage angles of the horn.

8.1 Changing the Coverage Pattern
The front grille of the Line 212 - SP is divided into two sections (except the version ‘Out-
door Installation’). Changing the coverage angle is possible by only removing the upper
section of the grille. To turn the horn, follow these steps:
1) Disconnect the power plug!
2) Make sure that no objects fall into the enclosure!
3) Remove the four grille mounting screws from the top on the sides of the speakers
with a 3 mm Allen key and remove the grille from the speaker enclosure. It may be
necessary to use a screwdriver in the middle of the top grille edge to pry up the
grille. There is a groove in the grille in this position (under the locking profile) just
for this purpose.
4) Remove the six screws from the high frequency horn (also using a 3 mm allen key).
Loosen the high frequency horn by using both hands, palms to the outside, to
grasp into the horn and lift the horn with even pressure from the palms of your
hands towards the outside. Never use a screwdriver or similar objects to reach be-
hind the edge of the horn, as this could damage it.
5) Rotate the horn 90° and screw the horn on tightly again (do not force it!).
6) Screw the grille on tightly.
If the coverage angle needs to be changed often, make sure that the horn is not always
rotated in the same direction, as the connecting cable may cause the contacts of the
driver to become loose. Open wires may hit other live parts: Danger of electrical
shock.
