5) Take off the strobe light attached to the top of the ETP-MT/R4 OP 4 tower arm along with cabling and reattach it to the new tower arm using the same screws.
6) Take off the optional CCTV camera attached to the bottom of the ETP-MT/R4 OP 4 tower arm along with cabling and reattach it to the new tower arm using the same screws.
7) Feed all the cabling through the Cable Opening into the tower and reattach the new tower arm to the ETP-MT/R OP 4 tower with the four carriage bolts included with the arm.

(C) Installing Amplifiers
1) Remove the rear access panel from the ETP-MT/R OP 4 Tower.
2) Fasten amplifiers onto mounting plates with hex nuts provided.
3) Connect two WEBS® loudspeakers to each extension wire using the plug-in connectors. Connect the other end of the cable to each one of the amplifiers using the COM and 25V screw terminals (it does not matter which wire goes to which screw terminal).
4) Place a washer along with the amplifier mounting bracket on the desired anchor bolt. After adjusting the mounting plate with the help of the obround slotted hole, fasten the plate to the anchor bolt with another washer and hex nut (see Figure 3).

Figure 3. Installing the Paging Amplifier: (1) 3/4"-10 hex nut, (2) 3/4" washer, (3) Base plate of the tower, (4) Anchor bolts, (5) Paging Amplifiers, (6) Amplifier Mounting Bracket, (7) 3/4"-10 hex nut for tightening anchor bolts, (8) 3/4"-10 hex nut for leveling anchor bolts.
Depending on the length of threading available on the anchor bolt, you may need to use the additional washers provided to elevate the amplifier mounting bracket so that the anchor bolt does not interfere with the amplifier. If there is not enough threading available to install as shown above, either do not use the additional washers, or remove the existing nut and washer and mount directly above the tower base plate.
Because this kit is being added to existing towers, installers may find conduit, electrical boxes and other objects obstructing the area above the anchor bolts where the amplifier brackets mount. These brackets can be installed on any 2 of the 4 anchor bolts—if you find that it is not possible to fit the brackets in the towers due to specifics of your existing installation, please call Talk-A-Phone technical support for assistance.
5) Repeat steps 3 and 4 to install the second amplifier with a mounting bracket to the second anchor bolt
of an ETP-MT/R OP 4 Tower.
Although the amplifier mounting brackets have rain shields, it is the installer's obligation to ensure that proper drip loops are created with the help of the extension wire, in order to prevent condensation from damaging the amplifiers.
6) Connect the power supply to a paging amplifier, blue light/strobe and any other optional devices (e.g. VOIP-CM-1.)
