located on the top of the speaker and close the
link. Make sure the chain is securely fastened
to the ceiling.
NOTE: An additional 6 feet length of chain is
available. Order Part Number V-1093-BK.
COVERAGE
The distance you can be away from a speaker
and still have good talkback depends on the
ambient noise level. The pendant speaker will
cover approximately 250 square feet when
mounted 8' from the floor (talkback from 10'). Speaker coverage is dependent on
mounting height; the greater the mounting height, the larger the area covered.
Remember: The speaker is no better than your ears. If you
cannot carry on a conversation at normal voice levels over the
required talkback distance, then talkback page equipment will
not function satisfactorily.
CONNECTIONS
Note: The cable is for electrical connections only. Under no circumstances
should the speaker be suspended from this cable.
Two conductor twisted wire is required for the 45-ohm talkback speakers. Standar d
22 or 24 gauge station wire is acceptable. Shielded wire is not required or
recommended. Connections are as follows:
• Speaker out from page control to speaker tip.
• Speaker common to speaker ring.
