SIGNAL TRANSMISSION VIA RADIO (e.g. W-DMX or audio radio systems, Bluetooth):
The quality and performance of wireless signal transmissions generally depends on the
environmental conditions.
Influence on the range and signal stability, for example:
• Shielding (e.g. masonry, metal structures, water)
• High radio traffic (e.g. strong W-LAN networks)
• interference
• Electromagnetic radiation (e.g. LED video walls, dimmers)
All range specifications refer to free field use with visual contact without interference!
The operation of transmitters is subject to official regulations. These can vary from region to
region and must be checked by the operator before commissioning (e.g. radio frequency and
transmission power).
WARNING:
Devices with wireless signal transmission are not suitable for operation in sensitive areas in
which radio operation can lead to possible interactions. These include, for example:
• Hospitals, health centers or other healthcare facilities that perform patient treatments
with specialized staff and equipment.
• Class I, II and III hazardous areas
• restricted areas
• military facilities
• airplanes or vehicles
• Areas where cell phone use is prohibited
NOTES FOR PORTABLE INDOOR DEVICES
1.
Temporary operation! Event equipment is basically only designed for temporary operation.
2. Continuous operation or permanent installation can lead to impairment of the function
and premature aging of the devices.

PROPERTIES
The MAILA® COL full-range column module makes MAILA® truly versatile. The elegant column element
with its 4x 6.5'' woofers not only provides an extended low-mid range, but also includes a 4-channel DSP
amplifier with 2.5 kW total power, which drives both the column itself and the MAILA® SAT satellites.
In this way, MAILA® sets with column module can not only be used as a ground stack variant, but also
as a flown array consisting of MAILA® COL and up to eight MAILA® SAT - particularly useful for festivals
and fixed installations. In addition, as with a classic line array, users can select different subwoofer
arrangements and adapt them to the sound reinforcement requirements on site.
On the ground, the use of MAILA® COL provides a further advantage: The interconnected column module
allows ground stack sound reinforcement to be implemented that is significantly higher (up to 3.2
metres) than conventional systems and, with its greater throw, also enables uniform sound coverage in
the far field.
With LogoLink®, LD Systems has added another innovation to MAILA®. Via the free MAILA® app (iPadOS),
every MAILA® system can be adapted quickly, easily and in detail and supplied with software updates
wirelessly. Once connected, the app automatically recognises the existing MAILA® components and
allows the system to be optimally set up in advance as well as during an event. The clincher:
The required wireless antennas are invisibly integrated into the LD logo of the MAILA® COL.
MAILA® APP (iPadOS)
The MAILA® app for iPadOS is available free of charge in the App Store.
CONSTRUCTION AND TRUSS MOUNTING
DANGER:
Always place the speaker system in a suitable location on a sufficiently stable, level and
horizontal surface. Make sure that the speaker system cannot fall off the edge of a stage
(e.g. due to vibration).
DANGER:
Overhead installation requires extensive experience, including calculation of working load limits,
installation materials used and regular safety checks of all installation materials and equipment.
If you do not have these qualifications, do not attempt an installation yourself, but use the help
of professional companies. There is a risk that equipment that has not been correctly mounted
and secured will come loose and fall down. This can seriously injure or kill people.
The LD MAILA® COL speaker column has 2 ergonomic carrying handles for comfortable transport.
To mount the speaker column on the subwoofer, insert the 4 steel bolts on the underside of the speaker
column into the 4 retaining sockets of the connecting plate in the subwoofer as far as they will go.

Use the optionally available EasyMount+ flying bracket for truss mounting (item number LDMAILATMB).
To secure the MAILA COL speaker column during truss mounting, there is an M10 thread
on the back of the enclosure in the recessed grip 1.
Remove the inserted blind screw using a suitable tool. An M10 eyebolt is included in
the scope of delivery of the MAILA COL. Screw the eyebolt into the now free thread and
make sure it is firmly fixed. Use a suitable safety rope to secure the speaker column
and also take into account the total weight of the satellite speakers mounted on the
column.
NOTE
The satellites do not need to be secured by a safety rope, as the SmartLink+®
connection meets the criteria for inherent safety.
However, if desired, the satellite speakers can be secured using the second M10 thread
2on the speaker column if desired.
