A field configurable jumper option is available for selecting the
desired strobe signal output.

The speaker-strobe includes field configurable switches for
selecting the desired candela and wattage outputs. These
output settings lock in place and remain 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/ULC-S524, 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.

Note: When installed, these devices are not centered on the

electrical box. Make sure boxes are mounted to compensate
for this difference. See Figure 7.

To install the speaker-strobe:

1. Open the cover by depressing the tab on the side of the
unit with a small screwdriver. Hinge the cover down, to
access the mounting screws and selectable candela and
wattage switches. The cover is also detachable for
installation convenience.

2. If temporal strobe (private mode) operation is desired, cut
jumper JP1. See Figure 2.

3. Connect the speaker and strobe terminals to the signal
circuit field wiring. For the unit to function properly,
observe polarity. 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. Slide the wattage switch to the desired wattage tap (2 W,
1 W, 1/2 W, or 1/4 W) by aligning it with the indicator
below the switch. See Figure 1.
