Introduction
Sounds that lasts
The VIRO is a powerful 2-way performance speaker which is designed for outdoor and indoor use, ensuring true-to-nature,
high delity reproduction of music and speech in every environment, ranging from residential applications to the most
demanding outdoor applications in parks, hotels and even clubs.
Its stunningly design is made of robust and elegant aluminium. The aluminium construction and grill with hydrophobic cloth
provides the necessary protection for all weather conditions. The combination of the cloth, sealing rubbers and drainage
holes on the bottom of the speaker make it IP55 compliant. The VIRO loudspeaker is available in Black (/B) or White (/W).

Overview VIRO: Back
1) Cable entry plate
To connect the VIRO, the cable must pass through the
backplate. The VIRO has two standard cable grommets in
the provided openings. This grommet provides water tight
protection.
An optional speakON connection plate with two NL4MP
connectors (CVS102) is available. It can be installed by
loosening the four screws of the cable entry plate. To
connect, the back plate must be released.
3) Bracket
The bracket of the VIRO is attached to the centre point of
the speaker. It is designed in such a way that it can be fully
rotated around the centre point. This allows the bracket to
be mounted in all directions . More information about the
bracket in ‘Chapter 3’.
2) Drop safety bushing
The VIRO5 has a M6 safety bushing. This provides the
option of mounting drop safety wires. Please check your
local regulations if this is required.
4) Water drainage holes
Two drainage holes are located at the bottom of the VIRO.
The loudspeaker has a protection class of IP55 thanks to the
sealing rubbers, the water-repellent cloth behind the grill and
the drainage holes.
Install VIRO at a minimum down tilt of 5°. Standing water is
avoided trough this installation. At the same time, make sure
that the drainage holes are located at the bottom.

The bracket of the VIRO is attached to the centre point of the speaker. It is designed in such a way that it can be fully rotated
around the centre point. This allows the bracket to be mounted in all directions, on the ceiling, wall or oor. As a result, VIRO
can be attached to various accessories.
For a solid xation of the loudspeaker, it should always be attached by at least two screws. The position of the fastening
holes depends on the surface to be mounted. Always use the proper fasteners depending of the mounting surface. Once
the bracket is mounted on the desired location, the loudspeaker can be xed to the bracket.
Multiple VIROs can be connected to each other. Make sure that all devices are switched off.
Connect the amplier to the far left +/- of the 4-pin terminal block. The right-hand +/- at the terminal block is the connection
to the next VIRO. If the optional transformer module is installed, the linktrough must be done at the primary side of the
transformer.
