Genesis High Candela Ceiling Horn-Strobe
Installation Sheet

Description

The Genesis High Candela Ceiling Horn-Strobe is a fire alarm
notification appliance designed for indoor ceilings and walls.
See Table 1 for a list of model numbers.

Field configurable jumper options are available for selecting
the desired dB output, temporal or steady horn output, and
strobe signal output.

The horn-strobe includes a field configurable switch for
selecting the desired candela output. The candela output
setting is locked in place and remains visible after final
installation.

This strobe features an enhanced synchronization circuit to
comply with the latest requirements of UL 1971 Signaling
Devices for the Hearing Impaired and the latest Canadian
standard CAN/ULC-S526. Synchronized operation requires a
separately installed synchronization control module. See
Table 2 for a list of compatible synchronization modules.

Install this device in accordance with applicable requirements
in the latest editions of the NFPA codes and standards and
Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, Section 32 and CAN/ULC­S524, Standard for the Installation of Fire Alarm Systems, and
in accordance with the local authorities having jurisdiction.

Installation

WARNING: To reduce the risk of shock, disconnect all power

and allow 10 minutes for stored energy to dissipate before
handling.

Caution: Electrical supervision requires the wire run to be

broken at each terminal. Do not loop the signaling circuit field
wires around the terminals.

To install the horn-strobe:

1. Remove the cover by depressing the tab on the side of the
unit with a small screwdriver. Turn the cover
counterclockwise to release.

2. Set the horn signal, sound output level, and strobe signal
to the desired settings. See Figure 2.

3. Connect the strobe terminals to the signal circuit field
wiring. You must observe polarity for the unit to function
properly. See Figure 4.

4. Slide the candela switch to the desired candela output (95,
115, 150, or 177 cd) by aligning it with the indicator below
the switch. See Figure 1.

5. Mount the unit onto a compatible electrical box. See
Figure 5.

6. Replace the cover by positioning the alignment arrows
together and rotating the cover clockwise.

7. Test the unit for proper operation.
