NOTE:
The AD-S402T is UL listed (1480A) for indoor use only
Installation
AD-S402T passive column loudspeaker systems require amplified audio signals. A pass-through on each loudspeaker permits connection to multiple loudspeakers.
The pluggable “Eurostyle” connectors allow the installer to pre-wire the audio system on site before the loudspeakers are installed.
AD-S402T Weather Cover
The loudspeaker comes with a weather cover for the input cup to protect the input connections and switches from
precipitation and other weather hazards (Figure 1). Use the weather cover for all non-UL outdoor installations or any
applications where the loudspeaker may be exposed to moisture. To ensure a good seal in the cable gland, use outdoor-rated

cable with a round jacket between 5.5 mm and 9.4 mm in diameter.
To use the weather cover:
1. Loosen the nut on the cable gland.
2. Pass the cable all the way through the nut and the rest of the gland.
3. Attach the input connector to the wires (see
4. Once the loudspeaker enclosure is installed, plug the input connector into the loudspeaker's input cup. Secure the
connector to the loudspeaker using the two captive retaining screws, one on each end.
5. Make sure that the transformer tap selection switch is set properly.
6. Place the cover onto the loudspeaker's input cup and attach it using the four screws, lock washers, and flat washers
provided.
7. Dress the cable so there is no undue strain on it. Tighten the gland nut until the grommet inside the gland has made a
tight seal onto the cable jacket.

The pluggable “Eurostyle” input connector (Figure 2) has four terminals to facilitate connection on a distributed
line. It also allows the installer to pre-wire the venue before the loudspeakers themselves are installed. The
connector accommodates wire up to 10 AWG or 6 mm2. Be sure of proper and consistent polarity at each connector
(Figure 3). If one or more loudspeakers is out of polarity with others, the acoustic performance will suffer. Always
secure the connector to the loudspeaker using the retaining screws at both ends.
Mounting
Tilt/Swivel Bracket
The bracket provided with the loudspeaker allows 0, 5,
10, 15, and 20 degrees of downward tilt (Figure 4), and
up to ±55 degrees of horizontal panning (Figure 5).
These angles may be constrained by the loudspeaker

enclosure and adjacent walls or other structural elements.
In addition, the bracket can be inverted, which allows the
loudspeaker to be tilted up.

For mounting that requires no panning left or right, the bracket kit includes a zeropan locking screw to keep the loudspeaker securely in place.
The AD-S402T has three attachment locations for the bracket. Figure 6 shows their
center points, including distances from the bottom edge of the enclosure. Two M6 ×
20 screws with flat washers are included for attaching the bracket to the rear panel of
the enclosure. Inverting the bracket offers three more configurations to choose from
and allows the loudspeaker to be tilted up instead of down (Figure 7). In addition,
the loudspeaker enclosure itself can be inverted, which doubles the total number of
mounting possibilities—exclusive of tilt—to 12.
An M6 eyebolt is included with the loudspeaker for attaching a safety tether, as may
be required by building codes in your jurisdiction. Attach the eyebolt securely to the
end mounting hole or to one of the unused ones.
The table below describes the pan range for different bracket positions and tilt angles.
