UNIVERSAL TELEPHONE ALERT WITH STROBE
Use this product according to this instruction manual. Please keep this instruction manual for future reference.
MODEL: UTA-WH
A 115 VAC LINE CORD IS REQUIRED FOR STROBE AND PIEZO ACTIVATION.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: THIS UNIT REQUIRES TWO SEPARATE VOLTAGE INPUTS TO OPERATE: 115VAC, 60Hz AND AN INPUT VOLTAGE
LISTED IN TABLE 5 TO TRIGGER THE RINGING CIRCUIT.
GENERAL INFORMATION:
The UTA-WH has a loud attention getting electronic ringer designed for use in noisy locations or for wide area coverage. It is FCC
Part 68 and IC CS-03 Registered for the public telephone network and can be used behind PBX and key systems that use interrupted
ring voltages from 40-130V, 20-30Hz or 20-30VDC/VAC or 36-60VDC.
The UTA-WH, when used indoors, will accommodate a modular plug that mates with an RJ-11C jack (USA) or a CA-11 jack
(Canada) for ringing voltage. The input voltage triggers the strobe and audible, which receive their operating power from the
115VAC, 60Hz source.
UTA-WH includes a high intensity flashing strobe for visual signaling and offers a choice of four selectable sound patterns (horn,
bell, single chime or vibrating chime) with a volume control. The UTA-WH is equipped with a weather resistant backbox for
optional outdoor use with conduit enclosed wiring.
APPLICATION INFORMATION:
The installation of this product must conform to the following instructions. IF ANY WORDS OR LETTERS APPEAR ON THE
PRODUCT INDICATING A PARTICULAR USE, THE PRODUCT MUST BE USED ONLY IN THE MANNER SO INDICATED.

WARNING: SHUT OFF ALL POWER BEFORE INSTALLING. ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSE DEATH OR
SERIOUS INJURY.
FCC REGULATIONS:
• This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. The label affixed to this product contains, among other information, the
FCC Registration Number and the Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this product. This information must be provided to the
telephone company if requested.
• The REN is used to determine the quantity of appliances, which you may connect to your telephone line and still have all of those
appliances ring when your telephone number is called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the REN's of all appliances
connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of appliances that you may connect to your line,
contact your local telephone company.
• This equipment should not be used on coin telephone lines. Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs.
• If trouble is experienced, disconnect this equipment from the telephone line to determine if it is causing the malfunction. If the
equipment is determined to be malfunctioning, its use shall be discontinued until the problem has been corrected.
• Should the equipment cause harm to the telephone network, the telephone company shall, if possible, notify the customer that
temporary discontinuance of service may be required; however, where prior written notice is not possible, the telephone company
may temporarily discontinue service without notice, if such action is necessary under the circumstances. The telephone company
may make changes in its communication facilities, equipment and operations procedures, where such action is reasonably
required in the operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and regulations of the Federal Communications
Commission.

INDUSTRY CANADA REGULATIONS: (Only applicable for use in Canada)
• NOTICE: The Industry Canada (IC) label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets
certain telecommunications network protective operational and safety requirements as prescribed in the appropriate Terminal
Equipment Technical requirements document(s). The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user's
satisfaction.
• Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. The customer
should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
• Repairs to certified equipment should be coordinated by a representative designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations
made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the
user to disconnect the equipment.
• Users should ensure for their own protection, that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and
internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly
Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection
authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
• RINGER EQUILAVENCE NUMBER: The Ringer Equivalence Number
(REN) assigned to each terminal device provides an
indication of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The termination of an interface
may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer Equivalence Numbers of all
the devices does not exceed 5.
