emerald op and speaker placement
HELPFUL HINT
It may be helpful to mark each speaker with a magic marker on the bottom for each Emerald OP, each
channel and speaker number, for example: Emerald OP #1, channel 1 - mark the speaker EOP1A.
Also when you get to the end speaker on each channel, add “END” to this designation.
Place the Emerald speakers by walking the floor and set the speakers on the floor at
approximate installation locations.
Place Emerald OPs on the floor at approximate locations (check drawing for correct
sequence). Make sure the Emerald OPs are not put in harm’s way of people working
or walking.
NEVER PLUG AN EMERALD OP INTO ANY COMPUTER OR NETWORK EQUIPMENT
OTHER THAN AN i.LON OR ANOTHER EMERALD OP.
NEVER INSTALL POWER WIRES WHILE THE POWER IS ON. IT IS DANGEROUS AND
WILL DAMAGE THE OPs, ONLY TURN THE POWER ON WHEN THE POWER WIRES ARE
FULLY AND PROPERLY WIRED AND INSTALLED.
INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT:
Lencore suggests installing equipment in this sequence:
Hang
speakers*
Hang Emerald OPs
Run wire with power OFF
ATTENTION: DO NOT HOOK UP POWER UNTIL THE SYSTEM IS FULLY INSTALLED.
POWER CONNECTIONS MUST BE DOUBLE-CHECKED TO ENSURE PROPER
POLARITY.
CRITICAL: CHECK WIRING POLARITY (+ AND -) BEFORE FIRING THE SYSTEM ON,
OTHERWISE, IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE WILL OCCUR TO SOME OR ALL OF THE
EMERALD OPs.
* Speaker units will hang from the ceiling using the attached chain (supplied by Lencore).
Chain length should be cut to enable each speaker to hang a minimum of 6” above the ceiling
tile and a maximum of 12” above the ceiling tile, unless otherwise noted on the drawing.
NOTE: TO HELP MAINTAIN UNIFORMITY, KEEP THE CHAIN LENGTHS/HEIGHTS
CONSISTENT THROUGHOUT THE INSTALLATION AND SPACE.
