Correct use of all rigging hardware is required for secure system suspension. Careful calculations should always be performed to ensure that all components are used within their Maximum Load Limit before the array is suspended. Never exceed the maximum recommended load ratings.
W ARNING: Do not use the older VRX932LA-AF array frame to suspend powered VRX932LAP or VRX918SP systems INST ALLING THE ARRA Y FRAME The array frame is attached to the internal rigging of the VRX900 system using the provided Quick Release Pins W ARNING: Do not use any substitute for these pins.
25 GROUND-ST ACKED , UPWARD FIRING ARRA YS Applications such as covering stadium bleachers from the playing field may be addressed by installing the array frames to the bottom of the array . Up to four VRX932LAP loudspeakers may be locked together and ground stacked using the VRX array frame kit, as shown.
26 SECTION 8 : INTRODUCTION T O THE VRX-AF The VRX-AF is an array frame designed to be used for suspension of the VRX932LAPand VRX918SP loudspeaker systems.
