Preparing the Input Cover

The input cover is designed for three different wiring scenarios (see above). To change the configuration of the input cover to support your wiring scenario, cut along the perforation on the rubber conduit. Use one 12 -inch to 12 -inch threaded coupling and two 38 -inch trade size conduit fittings for 12 -inch knockouts (see diagram below).

CAUTION: Do not use the wide open wiring scenario when installing the input cover with a flexible conduit.

Note: It is the installer's responsibility to seal against water ingress into the Euroblock connector.

Note: Flexible conduits and couplings must be UL listed, suitable for the application, and installed in accordance with the local authorities having jurisdiction.

Wiring the Loudspeaker

Wire Gauge

The FreeSpace FS2SE loudspeaker is designed to work with 18 AWG (0.8 mm) to 14 AWG (2.1 mm) size wire only.

Connection Diagrams

Expose six millimeters (1/4 inch) of bare wire to attach to the terminals.

Note: The loudspeaker is not rated for use with a rigid conduit. The loudspeaker is suitable for a flexible conduit or wiring connection only.

Note: Wiring method must be in accordance with:

In Canada, CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, Safety Standard for Electrical Installations, Section 32;

In the United States, The National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, and the National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code, NFPA 72.

Loudspeaker Settings

* NC: No Connection (do not use) Factory default

Transformer Tap Setting

Set tap by turning. Use a flat head screwdriver.

Using a Safety Cable

Some regional construction codes require the use of a secondary method of securing loudspeakers to support structures to provide additional safety. Choose a mounting position, method, and hardware consistent with local building codes and regulations.

A safety cable can be attached to the loudspeaker using one of the threaded inserts on either the rear or the sides of the enclosure. If installing the loudspeaker using the included mounting bracket, use one of the rear threaded inserts (2). If installing the loudspeaker with one of the optional accessory brackets (see page 4), use one of the side threaded inserts (1). See the diagram to the right for safety attachment points.

The side inserts (1) are sized for M5 screws (not included) with a depth of 11 millimeters (0.43 inches). The rear inserts (2) are sized for M6 screws with a depth of 12 millimeters (0.47 inches).

Loudspeaker Orientation

Choose the loudspeaker orientation best suited for your installation.

Installing the Bracket

Note: When choosing an installation location, at least one of the mounting bracket's attachment points must be secured to a support structure. Attachment points not secured to a support structure must be secured using appropriate hardware for the installation. Choose fasteners that are consistent with all local building codes and requirements.

Note: Choose appropriate fasteners to support the weight of the loudspeaker (1.63 kg [3.60 lb]).

1. Mark the drill holes.
2. Drill two holes (sized for appropriate fasteners) into the wall.
3. Secure the bracket to the wall with two screws (not included). Note: Use M5 or #10-24 sized screws.

Wiring the Connector

1. Feed the wires through the center hole of the bracket.
2. Insert the wires through the bottom of the input cover. See Preparing the Input Cover on page 4.
3. Wire the connector. For wiring information, see Wiring the Loudspeaker on page 5.

Installing the Loudspeaker

WARNING: Failure to follow the steps below could lead to an unsafe mounting condition, which could create a falling hazard.

1. Attach the wired connector to the loudspeaker.
2. Place the input cover over the connector and press it firmly against the loudspeaker to create a tight seal. Use the two included input cover screws to secure the input cover. See Preparing the Input Cover on page 4.
3. Hold the loudspeaker in between the bracket arms and insert one of the included bracket screws into each side of the loudspeaker using the threaded inserts.
4. Align the pins on the mounting bracket with the angle slots appropriate for your installation and snap the bracket into the loudspeaker. Note: The angle of the loudspeaker can be adjusted to 0^ , ± 15^ , ± 30^ , or ± 45^ .
   Note: In outdoor applications, do not install the loudspeaker with an upward pitch.
5. Tighten the screws on both sides of the loudspeaker to secure the loudspeaker to the mounting bracket. Do not over-torque the screw. Note: Before attaching the grille, adjust the loudspeaker tap settings to the appropriate setting for the installation. See Loudspeaker Settings on page 5.
6. Locate the extended grille tab on the inside of the grille. Attach the grille by sliding it into place. Be sure the extended grille tab attaches to the grille lock on the loudspeaker enclosure.

Removing the Grille

The grille is secured to the loudspeaker by the grille lock. Disengage the grille lock by inserting a small tool through the grille perforation (no larger than 1.5 millimeters in diameter). While depressing the grille lock, slide the grille away from the loudspeaker to detach it.

Note: The grille lock is located on the loudspeaker opposite of the tap switch. See the diagram below for the grille lock location.

Adjusting the Logo

The FreeSpace FS2SE comes with a pre-installed Bose logo for horizontal installations. The loudspeaker also comes with a separate logo for vertical installations. To remove the logo, seal it away from the loudspeaker grille. To apply the vertical logo, find the center of the grille and align the notches on the back of the logo with the grille perforation. Press to affix it to the loudspeaker grille.
