TQ600BC & TQ600M External Bell Connection
Please consult your local electrician for installation.
All wiring must comply with all local and national electrical codes,
ordinances, and regulations. Failure to comply could cause serious
electrical shock and damage to equipment that will void the warranty.
It is necessary to install a relay in order to control an External Signal Device such as a
bell, horn, buzzer or strobe. When a signal is activated the internal contacts close
completing the circuit. These internal contacts are dry and supply no voltage. Voltage
applied to these contacts must not exceed 30 volts. The relay activates the external
signal device.
A 24 Volt Switching Relay made by Honeywell (Acroprint p/n 01-0230-000) is available
from Acroprint (see below):

1) Mount the Relay vertically on a solid wall or partition as near as possible to the
TQ600BC (Barcode) or TQ600M (Mag Stripe). Select a location that is easily
accessible for installation and service.
2) Disconnect the TQ600BC/M from the power then connect it to the Relay
(Acroprint p/n 01-0230-000) per the diagram below.

5) Connect the TQ600BC/M to the power supply then plug the power supply
into a power outlet.
Program bell schedules (see pg. 5).
6) Verify that the External Signal Device is working properly. If it doesnt
activate check to see if the TQ600BC/M is set to the correct time. If the
time is correct check to see that the bell schedule is correct and verify
the schedule for AM or PM settings. If the external device still does not
activate check all connections and verify that the power outlet is working.
