LEO-M OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

LEO-M GUIDEALINKS
LEO-M is equipped with four captive GuideALinks and four
mating link slots that link to adjacent units in flown arrays.
Located at the top corners of the cabinet, GuideALinks
extend up and into the link slots of the cabinet above it, or
into the link slots of the MTG-LEO-M grid, making it easy to
link cabinets once they are stacked. GuideALinks extend
and retract with knobs and are secured with two quick-
release pins: one each in the top and bottom cabinets. Each
LEO-M loudspeaker ships with 10 1/2 x 1.25-inch quick-
release pins (blue button) (PN 134.044).
CAUTION: GuideALinks must be secured with
the included quick-release pins. At no time
should the weight of the loudspeaker rest on the
GuideALink knobs when the links are fully extended
(without the pins inserted). GuideALink knobs are for
extending and retracting the links only.
LEO-M Splay Angles
Rear GuideALinks attach at a fixed splay angle of 0 degrees
and act as a pivot point between linked LEO-Ms, with the
splay angle between the units determined by the front
GuideALink positions. Rear GuideALinks can be pinned in
either of two positions: extended or stowed.
Front GuideALinks determine the loudspeaker splay angles
and are configured with the yellow ANGLE positions when
the cabinets are resting in the caster frame. After the stack is
lifted with the motors, the loudspeakers rotate on the axis of
the rear GuideALinks and the front GuideALinks slide into
position as the weight of the loudspeakers causes the cabi-
nets to shift, at which point, quick-release pins are inserted
in the corresponding blue LOCKING positions to lock the
splay angles.
Available splay angles for linked LEO-Ms include 0.0, 0.5,
1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0 degrees and are indicated
by the blue and yellow GuideALink labels.
CAUTION: Splay angles of 0 degrees should
only be used for the top cabinet attached to
the grid. Splay angles of at least 0.5 degrees are rec-
ommended for cabinets near the top of the array. If
multiple cabinets are set to 0 degrees and the array is
