AVS Series Synchronization Control Modules
Synchronize horn and strobe with only two wires
Option to silence horns while strobes continue to flash
Operates in one Class A circuit or in two Class B
circuits
Circuits rated for 3 A of continuous current; 5 A surge
or inrush current
Green LED indicates signal operation
Easy to install
The Gentex AVSM (12 V or 24 V) and AVS44 (24 V) control modules provide an easy way to synchronize multiple horns and strobe light flashes using only two wires. With the module in temporal (Code 3) mode, it synchronizes multiple horn signals and allows the horns to be silenced while the strobes continue to flash.

Although the AVS44 modules can be used with these
1
devices, the AVSM modules are recommended in loops where no HS24 or ST24 devices are used.
2
The GX91 Series Mini-horns can only be synchronized through the control panel. They cannot be used in any loop using an AVS Synchronization Control Module.
Wiring Considerations
Connect AVS modules before all other signaling devices on the loop which are intended to be synchronized.
Note Do not use these modules in coded or pulsed
signaling circuits.
The input terminals accept wires with diameters between 18 AWG (1.2 mm) and 12 AWG (2.3 mm). Do not loop the wire under the terminals. Break the wire run to provide supervision of the connection.
