Toa HY-CN1W-WP User Manual

TOA's HY-CN1 series brackets are used to join 2 HX-5 series speaker systems, typically for the purpose of achieving better speaker directivity control in lower frequencies. Such directivity control helps achieve clearer and longer-range sound reproduction in locations where sound efficiency may be hampered by conditions like long reverberation time or a high level of background noise.

INSTALLATION MANUAL

1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Before installation or use, be sure to carefully read all the instructions in this section for correct and safe operation.

• Be sure to follow all the precautionary instructions in this section, which contain important warnings and/or cautions regarding safety.

• After reading, keep this manual handy for future reference.

• Install the unit only in a location that can structurally support the weight of the unit and the speaker. Doing otherwise may result in the speaker falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage.

• (HY-CN1B and HY-CN1W only) Since the unit is designed for indoor use, do not install it outdoors. If installed outdoors, the aging of parts causes the unit to fall off, resulting in personal injury.

• Do not use other methods than specified to mount the unit. Extreme force is applied to the unit and the speaker could fall off, possibly resulting in personal injuries.

• Tighten each nut and bolt securely. Ensure that the unit has no loose joints after installation to prevent accidents that could result in personal injury.

• Use the specified speaker in combination. Doing otherwise may cause the speaker to fall off, resulting in personal injury.

• Do not mount the unit in locations exposed to constant vibration. The unit can be damaged by excessive vibration, potentially causing the speaker to fall, which could result in personal injury.

• Avoid installing the speaker in locations close to the seashore or in indoor swimming facilities that are not well ventilated. In such locations the unit may be vulnerable to corrosion, eventually allowing the speaker to fall resulting in personal injury.

2. PRECAUTIONS WHEN INSTALLING THE HY-CN1B-WP AND HY-CN1W-WP

Only the HY-CN1B-WP and HY-CN1W-WP can be installed outdoors.

• Only the HX-5B-WP and HX-5W-WP speaker systems

can be installed outdoors.

• Install the speaker so that all speaker modules face

downward from the horizontal axis. Doing otherwise could adversely affect the speaker's weather resistance and possibly lead to malfunction or failure.
