2.2. xA-Series rigging components
The xA-Series loudspeaker cabinets together with the xA-Series
rigging components allow the setup of various array
configurations, either flown or ground stacked.
The following overview provides a basic description of the
intended use of each component.
2.2.1. xA-Series loudspeaker cabinets
The cabinet side panels are equipped with integrated rigging
points to accept the corresponding xA connector plates.
To attach the connector plates, the rigging points can easily be
accessed by removing the cover plates.
Once the respective connector plates are attached to both sides of
the cabinets, the cover plates are refitted to build a solid
mechanical connection between the cabinets or to the flying bar.
2.2.2. Z5413 Flying bar connector plate xA
Intended use
The Flying bar connector plate xA is used to connect the flying bar
to the entire array. For this purpose, the connector plate is
equipped with two pairs of holes.
The lower pair is used to connect the flying bar to SUB cabinets, if
these are integrated at the top of the array.
To connect the flying bar to 10A (-D) or 10AL (-D) cabinets, either
the lower or the upper pair can be used. Using the upper pair
allows the flying bar to be connected as close as possible to the
first cabinet of the entire array.
The connector plate is equipped with an additional suspension
hole of 12.5 mm [0.5"] [S] to allow the suspension of the array
(dual pickpoint operation) using a 1t Shackle (e.g. d&b E6507)
instead of the flying bar adapter.
The connector plate can also be used to attach a second pickpoint
at the end of the array to act as a pullback anchor device, if
required.
