V-1001

P-TEC SURFACE MOUNT

AMPLIFIED CEILING SPEAKER

INTRODUCTION

The V-1001 is a surface mounted speaker that
is self-amplified and is capable of reproducing
voice paging as well as background music. The
V-1001 has an externally accessible volume
control that can be adjusted by a screwdriver
through the side hole on the housing. All
speakers require -24VDC, 50mA. The baffle is
designed for mounting on acoustic tile, such as
those normally found in suspended-ceilings and
can be mounted without cutting large holes in
the tile. The mounting pins can be removed for
mounting in a hard ceiling. The speaker
housing has screw holes for securing speaker
without mounting pins. Although the P-TEC
speakers are designed specifically for standard
suspended ceilings, they can be used on many
types of ceiling materials. Two pair category
3/5/5E/6 UTP cable recommended.

INSTALLATION (see Figure 1)

1. Lift the adjacent ceiling tile and slide it out of
the way.

2. Pierce hole in tile where speaker is to be

mounted with a screwdriver. Feed wire
through hole to connect to speaker.

3. Make connections to amplifier (see Figure

2).

4. Install the speaker by inserting the mounting
pins through the ceiling tile and hold the
speaker in place.

5. Place the speaker mounting clips over
mounting pins (so pins slide through clips).

6. If necessary, adjust paging volume after
installation. The volume control is located
on the side of the speaker. Use a small
screwdriver to turn the control.

7. Install the volume control cover found in the
accessory pack.
