In order to prevent harm on users or other persons and damage on properties, the matters to be kept without fail are explained as follows.

■The degree of harm and damage that will occur when misuse is made by ignoring the contents of indication is classified and explained by the following indications.

WARNING

CAUTION

1.Matters to be kept without fail for Safety Purpose

WARNING

　●At the wiring and mounting of products, be sure to cut off power source.There is a risk 　 of electrical shock.

　●Do not disassemble or modify the product.There is a risk of fire, electrical shock etc. 　 For repair, check etc of inside the product, please inquire to each sales office or 　 technical consultation service written in the last page.

　●Pay attention not to mistake wiring work.If wiring is mistaken,the internal 　 circuit may burn out and it will become a cause of fire.

　●Be sure to use the power supply within the allowable voltage range of the 　 product.Otherwise,it may become a cause of fire and/or failure.

　●For the installation with execution of work,be sure to ask a professional company.Otherwise,there is a risk of electrical shock,fire and/or falling etc.

CAUTION

　●Be sure to connect the external fuse for protection of the power supply

　 circuit and internal circuit of the product.

　●

Do not use it at the place where vibration exists that is exceeding the specifications.

In addition,be sure to install on upright direction at the place where 　 vibration exists.There is a risk of damage and/or falling of the product.

The trouble occurred due to mishandling against the warning and caution matters, and/or due to disassembling, modification, natural disaster etc. cannot be guaranteed. Further, avoid the usage under conditions other than the contents described in this manual.

Request

　●Use it in the environment where strong radio waves and/or inductive noise

　 do not exist.Otherwise,there is a risk of noise generation from the Speaker.

　●Use it in the environment where corrosive gas does not exist. Otherwise,

　 it will become a cause of failure.

　●In order to avoid electrostatic breakdown,start to work after discharging static electricity

which is charged on a human body. 　 By touching an earthed metallic part with a bare hand, static electricity can be discharged.

　●Perform fitting of each part at a recommended torque value.

　●Pay attention not to lose the parts such as the terminal covers,front covers etc.

which are to be detached at performing work.

　●If this product is used for the safety-sensitive security purpose, be sure to perform daily

check, and establish the system design that can cope with the occurrence of accidental trouble and failure.

WARNING

　●

At the mounting of products, be sure to cut off power source. There is a risk of electrical shock.

　●For the installation with execution of work, be sure to ask a professional Otherwise, there is a risk of electrical shock, fire and/or falling etc.

CAUTION

　●Choose a location for the mounting surface where it has enough strength to support the 　 weight of the product, and where there is less vibration. In addition, do not use as a 　 vehicle. Failure to do so may be the cause of injury or damage to the product.

　●Be sure to use both pieces of mounting angle, and fasten them with the recommended 　 tightening torque. Failure to do so may be the cause of injury or damage to the product.

Request

　●Secure a enough space in which the mounting angle can also be installed when choosing a mounting surface.

　●Install the product on a flat surface without bumps and dips. Failure to do so may weak its resistance to water and dust.

　●To prevent the product from falling in places where vibration may be generated, applthread locking adhesive or the like, and perform periodic checking of the tightness of the mounting angle.

　●I When mounting it at a high place, choose the place where a foothold exists for facilitating repair work.

　●If it is used under the connected state to the power supply, then provide a switch which can easily cut off power supply in proximity to the product, for the safety purpose.

　●Please install it not to close the air hole.

Other Precautions

●The clamp face might resonate by the material, the thickness of the clamp face, and the reproduction volume of the product, and the vibration sound be generated. Measures can be done by reinforcing the clamp face.

5. How to perform wiring

Before wiring the product remove the terminal cover. And after the completion of the wiring attach the terminal cover.

●For the external contact of signal line, use no-Voltage contact circuit such as relay switch or open collector circuit(NPN type). As for the contact capacity,see the table below.

●The terminal screws should be fastened with the recommended tightening torque (0.3N・m)

WARNING

At the wiring of products, be sure to cut off power source. There is a risk of electrical shock.

　●

　●Pay attention not to mistake wiring work. If wiring is mistaken,the internal circuit may burn out and it will become a cause of fire.

CAUTION

　●Be sure to connect the external fuse for protection of the power supply circuit and internal circuit of the product.

　●The terminal screws should be fastened with the recommended tightening torque (0.3N・m). Otherwise, there is a risk of damage by short-curcuit, after wiring comes off.

Request

●Before switching on the power supply, confirm that the wiring is correctly performed.

●For countermeasure of noise, it is recommended to perform wiring as short as possible, and to use shielded wires. In addition, if a signal line is passing along high voltage cables or its wiring is located at the place likely to receive induction noise, there is a risk of malfunction by the effect of noise.

●If a no-voltage contact such as a relay or a switch etc. is used for power supply line, 　 select the contact for which rush current is considered. If capacity is insufficie nt, it will 　 become a cause of welding (deposition) of the contact and/or malfunction.

●The use of M3 ring terminals with insulating coating is recommended for the wiring of 　terminal block to prevent disconnection of wires. Recommended product: N1.25-3 (Product confirming to RoHS)

Other Precautions

●If power supply or signal lines are switched on simultaneously at the use of plural units, a shift of playing the voice period will occur.

●BDV-15JF comes to receive the influence of the noise easily if you connect the 0V terminal to the terminal COM.

6.How to use the product

6-1. Opening and closing the front cover

Open or close the front cover according to the procedure shown below when performing tasks such as adjusting the volume of the voice or selecting the mode switch.

①Remove the mounting screw (M3×6) for the front cover. ②Push the lower front cover section (Part A in the figure on the right) lightly with finger to slide it downward. ③When a SD card is to be used,remove the waterproof packing for the slot. ④After completing tasks, attach the parts removed in the procedure from ➀ to ➂ in the opposite order.

6-3.Rewriting the Message

By using an SD card (Model: SDV-128P Sold separately), and a sound writing tool (Model: FV-Win Sold separately), and a patlite playlist editor,the message can be rewritten. The maximum length of time for this product is a total of 63 seconds (in case of 64kbit/s, Fs=44.1kHz / internal memory size 508KB).For the method of creating data and storing it on an SD card, see the instruction manual for the sound writing tool.

Message rewriting procedure ①Turn on the power of the product, Comfirm neither COM nor CH are short-circuited. 　※The message rewriting cannot be done while the voice is playing or the test is playing. ②After opening the front cover and Inserting the SD card which be rewritten the playlist and message data, Playing the infomation sound ”PIPO” and Rewriting is begun. ③When the rewriting is completed and information sound “PI”, Remove the SD card. *Rewriting should be completed within 60 seconds. When playing the information sound other than the above,or when no response, the rewriting is not successfully completed. See Section “8. Before You Request a Repair.”Moreover, when the volume has been minimized, the information sound is not heard. 　

SD Card
