There are field-configurable options for selecting dB output,
horn signal, or strobe signal output. See Figure 1.
The 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. See Figure 2.
This strobe features an enhanced synchronization circuit to
comply with the latest requirements of UL 1971
Devices for the Hearing Impaired
standard CAN/ULC-S526. Synchronized operation requires a
separately installed synchronization control module. See
Table 2 for a list of compatible synchronization modules.

WARNING: Electrocution hazard. To avoid personal injury or
death from electrocution, remove all sources of power and
allow stored energy to discharge before installing or removing
equipment.
Caution: Electrical supervision requires breaking the wire run
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 both tabs on the top of
the unit with a small screwdriver and twisting slightly.
2. Set the horn signal, sound output level, and strobe signal
to the desired settings. See Figure 1.
• To change the strobe to temporal (private mode), cut
from circle J1 to the edge of circuit board.
• To change the horn signal from temporal to steady,
cut from circle J2 to the edge of circuit board.
• To change the horn output level from high dB to low
dB, cut the J3 trace between the holes.
3. Slide the candela switch to the desired candela output by
aligning it with the indicator located left of the switch. See
Figure 2.

4. Connect the strobe terminals to the signal circuit field
wiring. You must observe polarity for the unit to function
properly. See Figure 3.
5. Mount the unit onto a compatible electrical box, making
sure not to overtighten the mounting screws.
6. Replace the cover by aligning it at the bottom, then
snapping it in at the top.
7. Test the unit for proper operation.

Maintenance
Caution: To maintain the required agency listings, do not
change factory applied finishes.
This unit is not serviceable or repairable. Should the unit fail to
operate, contact the supplier for replacement.
Perform a visual inspection and an operational test twice a
year or as directed by the local authority having jurisdiction.
