12 VLS Series Speakers Quick Start Guide 13
Mounting and xing
Wall Bracket
Each VLS Series loudspeaker is supplied with a standard wall bracket suitable for mounting on most wall surfaces. The bracket is supplied as two interlocking U plates.
One plate attaches to the rear of the loudspeaker with four supplied screws. The other part is secured to the wall. The bar on the bottom of the speaker plate slides
into the bottom notch of the wall plate, while the top is secured with the two supplied screws. The bracket for the VLS 7 (EN 54) and VLS 15 (EN 54) is slotted to allow
an angle between 0 and 6 degrees (Fig.3). Aligning the top two screw holes of the VLS 30 results in a at ush mount; using the lower two screw positions provides a
4 degree downwardtilt. (Fig.4)
Pan-Tilt Bracket (optional)
A pan-tilt bracket is available which allows panning and tilting for exible orientation along both horizontal and vertical axes. Installation instructions are provided
with the bracket.

Outdoor applications
VLS Series loudspeakers are rated IP64 for resistance to dust and moisture ingress, and are resistant to both salt spray and UV exposure, making them suitable for use
in most outdoor applications. Please consult with your Tannoy dealer before installation in applications with extreme exposure to adverse environmental conditions
such as prolonged heavy rainfall, prolonged temperature extremes, etc.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The mounting of a permanently installed sound system may be dangerous unless undertaken by quali ed personnel with the required experience
and certi cation to perform the necessary tasks. Walls, oors or ceilings must be capable of safely and securely supporting the actual load. The mounting accessory
used must be safely and securely xed both to the loudspeaker and to the wall, oor or ceiling.
When mounting rigging components on walls, oors or ceilings, ensure that all xings and fasteners used are of an appropriate size and load rating. Wall and ceiling
claddings, and the construction and composition of walls and ceilings, all need to be taken into account when determining whether a particular xing arrangement
can be safely employed for a particular load. Cavity plugs or other specialist xings, if required, must be of an appropriate type, and must be tted and used in
accordance with the maker’s instructions.
The operation of your speaker cabinet as part of a own 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
