INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of a Renkus-Heinz RHAON Empowered digitally steered Iconyx ( IC Squared) loudspeaker system We hope
you enjoy it.
Your Iconyx IC Squared loudspeaker was carefully tested and inspected before leaving our
factory and should have arrived in perfect condition. Please carefully inspect the shipping
carton(s) and loudspeaker(s) for any noticeable damage, and if any damage is found, immediately notify the shipping company. Only you, the consignee, may institute a claim with the
carrier for any damage incurred during shipping. Be sure to save the carton(s) and all packing
material for the carrier’s inspection. It is also a good idea to save the carton and packing material even though the loudspeaker arrived in good condition. If you should ever need to ship the
loudspeaker, it should be shipped in its original factory packaging.
TECHNICAL SUPPORT
If you have any questions about IC Squared loudspeakers or encounter a problem designing,
installing, setting up or operating a RHAON system, please call our technical support staff at
949-588-9997 and ask the operator for technical support on RHAON. Call Monday through
Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Pacifi c Time.
The latest information on RHAON Technical Support is always available online at

IC Squared Digitally Steerable Loudspeaker Systems
Your IC Squared loudspeaker system is a unique device that combines the advantages of point
source design with the control and fl exibility of digitally steerable line array technology.
Unlike traditional vertical line arrays that need to be curved to steer the sound, IC Squared arrays use digital control to steer the sound while the array remains a straight vertical line.
Individual transducer control maximizes the acoustical advantages of the design and producing
unsurpassed vertical pattern control. Individual sonic beams can be shaped and steered up or
down and their acoustical center placed anywhere within the array.
IC Squared loudspeakers are powerful and versatile. They can be used as a stand alone high
performance loudspeaker, in a small stack when additional control and output are needed or
fl own in large multi cabinet arrays when even more p@ower is needed.
Matching IC212S-R and IC118-R subwoofers can be used as a base for the array modules or used as a
suspension platform when the array modules and subwoofers are fl own.

Installation.
Your IC Squared system was designed to be easy to fl oor stack or to be suspended from a ceiling. Note that it was not designed to be mounted
directly on a wall. The amplifi ers are convection cooled and their heat sinks require at least several inches of separation from the nearest
surface.
The actual installation should be made either by or under the close supervision of someone experienced in installation techniques and rigging.

IC2-R Mobile Array Module Assembly
Floor Stacks
IC2-R mobile array modules and their matching subwoofers are often fl oor stacked
using the subwoofers as a mounting base for the array modules.
Typical fl oor stacks include two or three array modules plus one or two matching
subwoofers. Floor stacks can be built without the subwoofers, but the stack won’t bet
as stable as one built with one or two subwoofers as the base.
To assemble an IC2-R fl oor stack.
1. Remove the cabinet ( subwoofer or array module) that will be used as the base
for the array from its carton and place it into position.
2. Remove a second array module from its carton. Place it in position on top of the
fi rst cabinet making sure the steel channels on both ends of the cabinet are aligned
with the ones on the subwoofer.
3. Remove (pull out) the quick disconnect pins from the channels at the top
of the lower cabinet. Then use the knurled knobs on the top cabinet’s joining
bars to move the end of the bars down into the lower cabinet’s channels.
In other words, grab the knobs and one by one slide the joining bars in the
channels on the top cabinet down into the top of the channels on the lower
cabinet.

4. After the joining bars from the top cabinet are slipped into the top of the
channels on the lower cabinet, secure them in place with the lower cabinet’s
quick disconnect pins. The lower cabinet’s joining bars should be left in their
position at the bottom of their channels unless and until they are needed to
add another array module.
5. Repeat the procedure with each of the four joining bars until the cabinets
are isecurely fastened together. Note that if a second subwoofer had been
included to form base, the two subwoofers would have been joined together
in the same fashion
Flying Arrays
The procedure for assembling fl ying arrays is similar to the one used to assemble
ground stacks, except that the order is reversed. Ground stacks are assembled from
the bottom up while fl own arrays are usually assembled from the top down using the
RHANG-IC2 Flybar assembly; see photo
To assemble an IC2-R fl ying array using the RHANG-IC2 Flybar:
1. Insert the 2 heavy attachment arms into the top of the metal channels on the array
module and secure them in place with the quick disconnect pins.
2. Attach the lifting device (chain hoist, fork lift, etc) you will use to raise the array to
the fl ybar. One commonly used arrangement is shackles and a sling.

3. Raise the array high enough to let you roll or slide the next cabinet into position
beneath it. Lower the array assembly into position on the second cabinet and secure
it into position with the joining bars and quick disconnect pins.
4. Repeat the procedure until the array is complete.
