Edwards Adaptatone is a heavy-duty , tone-selectable, stand
alone, indoor/outdoor audible signaling device intended
for industrial applications where high audible output and
microcomputer reliability are required. The Adaptatone
Millennium series are UL and cUL Listed as Audible Signal
Appliances for use in the following hazardous locations.

The Adaptatone operates from local power and sounds a
high decibel signal determined by the setting of miniature programming switches inside the unit. The
Adaptatone may be programmed for any of the 27 tones
listed in Figure 7.
Speaker direction and the output level are easily adjustable.

The Adaptatone may be mounted to any flat surface or
may be used as a freestanding unit mounted to a rigid
pipe. The Adaptatone must be installed in accordance
with the latest edition of the National Electrical Code or
other regulations applicable to the country and locality
of installation and by a trained and qualified electrician.

1. Mount Adaptatone as shown in Figure 2.
a. Flat Surface Mounting. Secure unit to
mounting surface using the (4) mounting holes in
the mounting plate on the rear of the box. Use
the #10 x 3" (76 mm) wood screws (furnished loose)
or other hardware (not supplied) suitable for the
mounting surface.
b. Rigid Pipe Mounting. Loosen the (4) cover screws
from the signal box and lift off signal box cover.
NOTE: Cover screws are captive. Do not remove from
cover.
Remove the center knockout in lower wall of box
and mount box to a 1/2" (12.7 mm) conduit pipe
using suitable connector .
2. Install wires through a knockout hole in the bottom
of the box from a raceway that is, with its connections
to the 1/2" (12.7 mm) conduit knockout hole, approved
for the same degree of protection and enclosure type
needed by the application. Use the provided plastic
tie-wrap, on the barrier to the electronics, to separate
incoming power leads from signal and tone initiating
leads, per NEC (Figure 5).

T o prevent fire and shock, wire the Adaptatone only as
described in this installation instruction.
3. Wire as follows referring to Figures 5 and 6.
a. Connect green and yellow-striped earth-ground
wires to earth-ground.
b. Connect the RS485 wires to terminals +TX/RX and
-TX/RX on the RS485 COMM board (Figure 6).
c.If using the optional MR201/C relay, connect the
relay to +RELA Y and -RELA Y on the RS485 COMM
board (Figure 6).
d. Connect incoming power to wire leads using a
butt splice or other method listed, certified, or
otherwise approved by local authorities. Leads
are black and white.

T o ensure integrity of the enclosure: Ensure the cover
gasket, part number P-007549-0069, is adhered into
groove at cover perimeter before replacing the signal box
cover.
Ensure that the (4) collar gaskets, part number P-0419300362, are in place on each cover screw before securing the
signal box cover .
When securing cover , start screws by hand, making sure
they are threaded into tapped holes in housing bosses
before securing with a screwdriver . Torque signal box cover
screws to a minimum of 20 in-lbs. This ensures the
required tight fit.
6. Tightly secure the signal box cover using (4) retained
cover screws.
7. Torque signal box cover screws to a minimum of 20
in-lbs.

WARNINGWARNING
To ensure integrity of the Adaptatone assembly when
adjusting the speaker direction, make sure threads in the
enclosure remain fully engaged and do not turn speaker
more than 360 degrees from the original factory installed
position.
8. To adjust speaker direction, loosen large star nut
(Figure 2) and turn speaker to the approximate desired
position.
WARNINGWARNING

WARNINGWARNING
T o ensure integrity of the Adaptatone assembly, prior to
completion of installation, make sure threads in the
enclosure are fully engaged and ensure that the star nut is
wrench tight.
9. Regardless of speaker direction adjustment, it is
important that the star nut be tightened wrench tight
to ensure the speaker position is maintained securely .
e. Optional. Connect external 24V DC battery (not
supplied) in series with separate diode assembly
part 2600010 (supplied) to TB1 terminals 3 and 4
on the main board as shown in Figures 3 and 4
and marked on the diode assembly .
NOTE: Terminal Block TB1 can be unplugged from the
main board to complete wiring as shown in
Figure 3.

1.0Setting Unit Address and Network Baud Rate
1.1Locate the 8-position dip switch, S1, on the top edge of the RS485 COMM board (Figure 6).
1.2Unit address range is 00-1F hex. (00-31 decimal). Refer to Table 2.2 for unit address configuration. Set S1
positions 1-5 for the desired unit address configuration.
1.3RS485 COMM supports 1200, 2400, 9600 and 19200 baud rate using 8 data bits and one stop bit. Parity is not
supported. Refer to T able 1.3 for Baud Rate switch configuration. Set S1 positions 6-7 for the desired Baud
Rate configuration.
1.4Set 100-ohm termination resistor (if required). Network termination is required if the unit is located at the
beginning or end of the network bus. Termination reduces unwanted reflections caused by data signal
propagation due to long wire runs. Refer to T able 1.4 for switch configuration. Set S1 position 8 for network
termination if required.

2.0Messaging Format
2.1The RS485 COMM utilizes the Edwards SigNet ASCII protocol for data messaging. Each unit is capable of
consuming and/or producing messages from the master controller. SigNet message format is illustrated
below.
<STX> <UA> <DDDD> <ZONE> <ETX> <CHKSUM>
<STX>The <STX> character has a value of 2 hexadecimal and is required at the start of
<UA>Two byte ASCII representation of the hex Unit. Example - If unit address 0A is
<DDDD>ASCII data field. (4 bytes total). These bytes contain commands, tone/message
<ZONE>Programmable unit Zone issued by the master or controlling computer
<ETX>The <ETX> character has a value of 3 hexadecimal and is required at the end of
<CHKSUM>Optional two byte Message Block checksum (2 bytes). Refer to Section 4.0 for
