1. Do not use the apparatus near water.

2. Clean only with dry cloth.

3. Do not block any ventilation openings.

4. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or

other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

5. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug.

A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding- type

plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong

is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult

an electrician for replacement of the outlet.

6. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs,

convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

7. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of

time.

8. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the

apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is

damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the

apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has

been dropped.

9. When the mains plug or appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, it shall

remain readily operable.

10. Please keep the unit in a good ventilation environment.

11. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus

to rain or moisture.

INSTALLATION

SELECTING MOUNTING LOCATION

The Topcat is shipped ready to mount in a standard suspended ceiling grid. All hardware

needed to secure the Topcat into the ceiling grid is provided. Additional hardware may be

required if building structure tie-points are metal. A licensed electrician will need to provide

necessary materials if Topcat is permanently connected to the building AC mains.

Topcat will distribute sound throughout a classroom of up to 1200 sq  (112 sq m) with ceiling

heights of 9 to 12 . The location of the Topcat is critical to ensure even sound distribution.

1. Identify the center of the listening area of the classroom for optimum location (Figure 1).

2. Select a ceiling tile that is free of fixtures (lighting, HVAC, etc.) nearest to the center point.

3. Remove the selected ceiling tile for Topcat installation.

OF THE LISTENING AREA

TOOLS AND MATERIALS

In addition to the contents of the Topcat system, you may need the following tools & materials:

• Flat blade screwdriver (small)

• Pliers

• Wire cutters

• Drill

Before beginning installation, make sure you have the necessary tools and materials on hand and that the area underneath the proposed Topcat location is cleared.

Installation Planning

NOTE: Topcat is designed for installation in a 2’ x 2’ or 2’ x 4’ suspended ceiling grid (or 600mm x 600mm international ceiling grids). If you do not have this type of ceiling,

please contact your local Lightspeed Territory Manager.

• Utility knife

• Safety wire anchors

• Wire ties

TOPCAT CEILING INSTALLATION (U.S. & CANADA)

The dimensions of Topcat are 1’ x 2’ and it is designed to fit into any

standard 2’ x 2’ or 2’ x 4’ suspended ceiling tile grid.

1. The ceiling tile will need to be cut to accommodate Topcat.

2. Set the ceiling tile on a flat work surface with the patterned side

facing down.

3. Using a straight edge, cut a 1’ x 2’ section from the ceiling tile,

leaving a 1’ x 2’ section and a 2’ x 3’ section (Figure 2), or two 1’ x 2’

sections (Figure 4).

SECURING TOPCAT (U.S. & CANADA)

To comply with Building Codes, the Topcat MUST be secured with two

safety wires.

1. Locate the 20  length of safety wire. The safety wire needs to be permanently

attached to the solid building structure above.

2. Cut the safety wire in half, leaving two 10  pieces.

3. Install anchors (or eye screws if necessary) into the building structure.

4. Loop one end of the safety wire through the anchor (or eye screw), then twist it

around itself at least five times (Figure 1). Repeat for second anchor.

5. Li the Topcat up and lay it into the desired ceiling grid location.

CAUTION:Ensure that Topcat is stable on the grid rails with the side brackets

hooked over the rails. If not stable, there could be a danger of it falling until

safety wires are attached.

6. Loop the other end of the safety wire through one of the tabs on Topcat (located

in opposite corners). Pull the wire through until it is taut and twist it around itself

at least five times to secure Topcat. Cut o excess wire if needed.

7. When hard wiring AC power to Topcat, electrical codes require for Topcat to

be attached to the ceiling rail. Utilizing existing holes on the vertical section of

the ceiling rail (center of the hole to the base of the rail must be a minimum of

15mm) drill two screws on each 2’ side of the Topcat. Drilling these screws into

the designated areas of the Topcat chassis will not cause harm to the product

(Figure 3).

NOTE: Do not drill in the area designated with yellow tape.

8. Continue to page 12, Installing and Wiring Electrical Power.

TOPCAT CEILING INSTALLATION (OUTSIDE U.S. & CANADA)

For 600mm x 600mm Ceiling Grid

Topcat has spacer brackets mounted on each of the four sides. With

these brackets installed and the ceiling tile is cut in half, the Topcat will

fit into a standard 2’ x 2’ suspended ceiling grid with an additional tile

support. With the brackets removed, it will fit a 300mm x 600mm ceiling

grid with an additional tile support (Figures 4 & 5).

Remove the spacer brackets from each of the four sides of the Topcat

(Figure 1, next page).

NOTE: If your ceiling grid is any other dimension than mentioned above,

contact your local Lightspeed Representative.

To comply with Building Codes, the Topcat MUST be secured with two

safety wires and to the ceiling grid with four screws.

1. Remove the spacer brackets from each of the four sides of Topcat (Figure 1).

2. Locate the 6m length of safety wire. The safety wire needs to be permanently

attached to the solid building structure above.

3. Cut the 6m safety wire in half, leaving two 3m pieces.

4. Install anchors (or eye screws if necessary) into the building structure.

5. Loop one end of the safety wire through the anchor (or eye screw), then twist it

around itself at least five times (Figure 2). Repeat for second anchor.

6. Li the Topcat up and lay it into the desired ceiling grid location.

CAUTION: Ensure that Topcat is stable on the grid rails. If not stable there

could be a danger of it falling until safety wires are attached.

7. Loop the other end of the safety wire through one of the tabs on Topcat

(located in opposite corners). Pull the wire through until it is taut and twist it

around itself at least five times to secure Topcat. Cut o any excess wire if needed

(Figure 3).
