5.6 Physical Installation

This section details the physical requirements and methods for installing the module. Specific mounting procedures detailed herein may require some variation depending on the particular situation. However, the basic methodology is the same in all cases.

Basic installation tasks include:

Installing the Enclosure and Wall Brackets

Mounting the module

5.6.1 INSTALLATION WARNINGS

DANGER: DSAi SERIES MODULES MUST BE SECURELY MOUNTED TO STRUCTURE CAPABLE OF SUPPORTINGTHEIR WEIGHT. THE USER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR PROVIDING PROPERLY ENGINEERED ATTACH- MENT OF THE SUPPLIED WALL BRACKETS TO STRUCTURE, USING HARDWARE RATED FOR THE LOAD. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING MAY RESULT IN FAILURE OF THE MOUNTING CAUSING THE MODULE TO FALL DOWN, WITH POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT DAM- AGE, INJURY, OR DEATH.

DANGER: ONLY PERSONS WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF PROPER HARDWARE AND INSTALLATION TECHNIQUES REQUIRED SHOULD ATTEMPT TO INSTALL DSAi SERIES MODULES OVERHEAD. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS PRECAUTION MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT, INJURY, OR DEATH.

CAUTION: The actual coverage provided by a DSAi Series module will be largely determined by DSAPilot adjusting its signal processing settings. However, the module must still be positioned in a location that is within the possible adjustment range for the desired coverage.

CAUTION: It is physically possible to mount a DSAi Series module either end up. Because of the transducer-specific signal processing, it will NOT provide the desired performance if installed upside down in its intended application.

CAUTION: For DSAi Clusters with two or more modules mounted one over the other, it is recommended to make all cable connections before lifting each module onto the wall brackets. See Sections 5.2 through 5.6. Once the modules are mounted, access to the connectors may be difficult.

5.6.2 PHYSICAL ORIENTATION – SIGNAL END / POWER END

The directionality of the DSAi Series modules partly depends on using specific signal delays to each transducer to control its sound arrival to the listeners. As such, DSAPilot makes assumptions about the physical location of each transducer in the enclosure. This means there is a correct “top” and “bottom” to each enclosure that is specific to each application.

The two ends of DSAi modules are referred to as the Signal End and Power End. In addition to this physical difference, there is a built-in LED indicator on the front of the Signal End of each module.
