Tilt-Angle Extender Bar
The X-Line Very Compact Tilt-Angle Extender Bar features a rigging attachment position to allow a single column composed of an X-Line
Very Compact Grid and Loudspeaker Array to be flown and tilted to obtain desired sound coverage. The X-Line Very Compact Tilt-Angle
Extender Bar offers up to 18 different angle positions either in declination or inclination depending on how the bar is positioned on the
grid.

Simplified Rigging-Rating Guidelines
1. These simplified rigging-rating guidelines provide ratings for
typical arrays based on the:
A. The total weight of the grid and all enclosures suspended
below the XLVC-TAE.
B. The pick-up hole on the XLVC-TAE.
C. The total height of the array from the pick-up hole in the XLVC-
TAE to the bottom of the bottom loudspeaker.
D. The assumption that one pick-up point will be used.
Determining the forces throughout an array requires complex calculations.
These guidelines eliminate the need for weight-distribution calculations by
using conservative working-load ratings. Other array configurations may
be permissable – Consult the XLVC Users Guide and LAPS Software.
2. Never exceed the weight limit for any XLVC-TAE pick-up hole.
3. Never exceed the height limit for any array using the XLVC-TAE.
4. Make sure that the two quick-release pins that secure the
spreader bars on the grid to the XLVC-TAE are fully locked.
5. Do not remove any bolts or dissasemble the XLVC-TAE.
6. Only use Electro-Voice rigging hardware.
7. Only suspend using the XLVC-Series grids.
8. Read the XLVC Users Guide before suspending any loud
speakers overhead.
9. All non-Electro-Voice hardware is the responsibility of others.
