General Description
The National Fire Protection Association has published
standards and recommended practices for the installation
and use of the appliances described in these instructions.
System Sensor recommends that the installer become familiar with these standards and practices, local codes, and
any special requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.
The speaker can operate at any one of four input power levels (1/4, 1/2, 1, or 2 watts) at either of two input voltages
(25V
or 70.7V
rms
). The rms voltage and power levels are
rms
selected at the time of installation, but can be changed, if
necessary.
The speaker is equipped with a capacitive input to allow
for DC supervision.
Optional strobes are available for use with the speaker. Although they are assembled into a unit at the time of installation, the strobe and speaker are electrically independent
and require separate power sources. Strobes must be powered by means of an uncoded full-wave rectified, filtered or
unfiltered supply. Model SS12LO is for use with 12 volt
panels and Models SS24LO and SS24M are for 24 volt panels. The strobe CANNOT be supervised when it is attached
to the speaker and is considered a supplementary signaling
device.

Installation
Electrical
Install the electrical wiring in compliance with all applicable local codes as well as any special requirements of the
authority having jurisdiction, using the proper wire size.
1. Connect the speaker and strobe as shown in Figure 1.
Keep in mind that if an optional strobe has been attached to the speaker, the speaker and strobe are electrically independent. The speaker must be connected to a
25V
or 70.7V
rms
DC power supply.
Even though V400 series speakers can be used with
25V
or 70.7V
rms
sult if the speaker is improperly connected. Therefore,
be sure to use the COM and 25 terminals when a 25V
amplifier is being used. Similarly, use the COM and 70
terminals if a 70.7V
NOTE: Do NOT loop electrical wiring under terminal
screws. Wires connecting the device to the control
panel must be broken at the device terminal connection to ensure electrical supervision.
2. See Figure 1. The speaker is equipped with five posts
and an associated plug with red and black wires. The
center post is labeled COM (common) while the others
are labeled 2W, 1/4W, 1/ 2 W, and 1W, respectively.
These posts enable the installer to select any one of four
power levels by installing the plug onto COM and the

appropriate power post. When connecting this plug,
make sure the black wire is connected to the COM post
and the red wire to the numbered post.
NOTE: The plug MUST be installed for the speaker to oper-
ate. The speaker cannot sound or produce a trouble
indication at the panel if the plug is not installed.
Mounting
NOTE: The descriptions in this section assume that all prepa-
rations necessary for the installation of the speakers
have been completed. This includes the installation
of all conduit, electrical boxes, and wiring.
A. General
Both slotted head and phillips head screws are supplied
with the speaker/strobe. Use the slotted head screws to
mount the device or combination of devices on the electrical box. Use the phillips head screws in the two remaining
holes when only a speaker is being installed.

B. Surface Mount
1. Speaker Only (Figure 2)
(a) Wire the speaker as described in Electrical.
(b) Attach the speaker to a standard 4-inch electrical
box, using the two 8-32 X 17/16 slotted screws provided. Fill the remaining holes with the short #8
sheet metal screws.
2. Speaker with Strobe ( Figure 3)
(a) Use a small bladed screwdriver to remove the plastic
flash from the two strobe lug slots on the speaker.
(b) Identify the two diagonally opposite speaker holes
that will be needed for mounting the speaker on the
electrical box. The other two holes will be used to
attach the strobe and flush mount plate to the
speaker.
(c) Position the strobe over the speaker and guide its
two power lugs into the slots formed when the flash
was removed in step 2(a). Attach the strobe and
flush mount plate to the speaker using #8 phillips
head sheet metal screws through the pair of strobe
mounting holes that was selected in step 2(b).
(e) Slide the right angle connector on the red wire onto
the strobe power lug nearest the “F” in “FIRE”. Similarly, connect the right angle connector on the black
wire to the remaining lug on the opposite side of the
speaker.
(f) Connect the free end of the red wire to the STROBE
+ terminal (1) and black wire to STROBE – (5).
Then, connect a source of uncoded (continuous) 12
VDC or 24 VDC, as appropriate for the strobe model,
to the STROBE + and STROBE – terminals (1 and 5,
respectively). Be sure to observe polarity.
(g) Wire the speaker as described in Electrical and at-
tach it to the box, using two 8-32 X 17/16" slotted
screws.
