Please retain all packaging in case of future returnshipment.

About this Quick Start Guide

This QSG describes details of the MC15-R loudspeaker and shows various options such as the MC15-FB y bar, MC15-RS rigging set, MC15-RC rigging chain, and

MC15-WB wheel board, in readiness for suspending. These instructions shall only be used with these components.

The optional rigging components (MC15-FB y bar, MC15-RS rigging set, MC15-RC rigging chain) shall only be used in conjunction with Turbosound MC15-R

loudspeakers as described in this quick start guide.

The instructions do not show details of external lifting equipment and do not contain details of safe lifting procedures or installation.

Possession of these instructions and procedures does not imply authorisation for their use.

General Safety

The operation of your product as part of a suspended system, if installed incorrectly and improperly, can potentially expose persons to serious health risks and

even death. In addition, please ensure that electrical, mechanical and acoustic considerations are discussed with qualied and certied (by local, state or national

authorities) personnel prior to any installation.

Installation and setup should only be carried out by qualied and authorised personnel observing the valid local, state and other safety regulations applicable in your

country. If any parts or components are missing please contact your dealer before attempting to set up the system.

It is the responsibility of the person installing the assembly to ensure that the suspension/xing points are suitable for the intended use.

We also recommend you schedule Turbosound training with our sales partners and applications team.

Equipment used to connect to the Turbosound rigging system must be properly rated and must conform to the local, state and other safety regulations. Do not

use Turbosound rigging with other types or brands of loudspeakers. This practice may compromise safety standards and Music Tribe Global Brands Ltd will not be

responsible for damage or injury so caused. Do not modify the accessories, or use them in a way other than that described in this QSG. Rigging components supplied as

part of a complete assembly are non-interchangeable and must not be exchanged with the component parts of any other assembly.

Welding, or any other means of permanently xing rigging components to each other or to cabinet xing points is not allowed. Rigging components or assemblies

must only be xed to Turbosound loudspeaker cabinets using the cabinet xing points.

Music Tribe Global Brands Ltd assumes no liability for any damage or personal injury resulting from improper use, installation or operation of the product. Regular

checks must be conducted by qualied personnel to ensure that the system remains in a secure and stable condition. Make sure that, where the product is suspended,

the area underneath the product is free of human trac. Do not suspend the product in areas which can be entered or used by members of the public.

Always refer to EASE FOCUS modeling software error and warning indications prior to installation.

Secondary Safeties

All loudspeakers own in theatres, studios or other places of work and entertainment shall, in addition to the principle load bearing means of suspension, be provided

with an independent, properly rated, and securely attached secondary safety. Only steel wire ropes or steel chains of an approved construction and load rating shall be

used as secondary safeties. Plastic-covered steel wire ropes are not permitted for use as secondary safeties.

The secondary safety suspension must be independent of the primary suspension points and capable of carrying the total system weight. The additional safety device

must be mounted in a way that the loudspeaker is caught by the safety device without any drop and swing, in the event that the primary suspension fails.

Operational Safety

The procedures require the use of two or more authorised persons.

Produce a lift plan: before any lift takes place, you must formulate a lift plan that describes the exact steps and procedures that will be carried out.

The plan must be shared with all assistants and stake-holders in the lift so that each person will understand their responsibilities.

Observe all instructions given on the respective instruction labels of the rigging components and loudspeakers.

When using chain hoists, make sure nobody is directly underneath or in the vicinity of the loudspeakers.

During assembly pay attention to the possible risk of crushing.

Wear suitable protective clothing.

Safety Inspections

Carefully inspect rigging system components and cabinets for defects or signs of damage before proceeding to assemble the array to be own. If any parts are

damaged or suspect, or if there is any doubt as to the proper functioning and safety of the items DO NOT USE THEM and withdraw them from use immediately.

System Requirements

The MC15-R is a bi-amp 3-way loudspeaker with a passive network used on the mid and high frequency bands, and it requires 2 channels of amplier and DSP in

bi-amp mode.

All Manchester series Loudspeakers exclusively use LAKE pre-sets via Lab Gruppen PLM+ and D series L platforms. No other amplier and DSP platforms are supported.

Manchester series has a powerful yet simple pre-set strategy utilizing the latest functionality of LAKE software (explained later in this QSG).

Pre-set data is found either via the LAKE LOAD Library or can be downloaded from www.turbosound.com

Recommended Lab Gruppen PLM+ models for Touring applications are the PLM12k44 and PLM20k44.

For installations using Lab Gruppen D series L models, please use Lab Gruppen ‘CAFE’ software - available for download from www.labgruppen.com -

to determine the optimum amplier conguration for your system.

System Cabling Requirements

To avoid wasting amplier power, you should use heavy-duty speaker cable with a minimum wire size of 2.5 mm² (14 AWG), and preferably 4 mm² (12 AWG)

for longer runs or where total cabinet input impedance is less than 8 ohms. For extreme cable lengths, be aware of cable impedance and resistive losses.

Always observe the correctpolarity.

Use genuine 2 x NL4M Connectors for reliable operation.

Attach and support the speaker cables from your ampliers to the loudspeaker cabinets, so that no signicant additional weight or lateral force is applied to the array

by the input wiring. Input cables or link cables should never be used to angle the array or used as rigging in any way.

Bi-Amping

NOTE: Since the MC15-R cabinet is wired (1+/- = LF and 2+/- = MHF), it makes sense to use either (LF: 1 +/- HF: 2 +/- ) or (LF: 3 +/- HF 4+/-) for the output patching

from the Lab Gruppen PLM+ amplier.
