IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER

When mounting a wireless device a comprehensive radio survey should have been carried out to establish the location that provides the best coverage and optimum reach. Taking into consideration the building structure and materials, the survey identifies the wireless infrastructure required and product locations for optimum performance, identifying  any factor that could prevent radio integrity.

Avoid fixing or mounting the unit close to the following:

• Equipment that utilises large electrical currents
• Large metal objects or structures
• Fluorescent lighting fittings
• Metal ceiling structures
• IT cabling

Keep 2 meters minimum spacing between other wireless equipment in the area to avoid signal interference.

 EN54 approved environmental temperature range is -10°C to +55°C

UNBOXING

• When unboxing the Sounder Base you will find the unit and its mounting base.
• This comes with pre-formed mounting holes to mount the mounting base.
• A securing screw is fitted to ensure unwanted removal of the attached device.
• Two screws are supplied to fix the sounder to the mounting base and one screw (optional) can be used to fix the battery cover, when the base is topped by the lid.
• Dip switches are found inside the sounder to select your desired tone and volume.

For more information, please refer to the complete product manual.

MOUNTING STEPS

Proceed as follows to complete the device installation.

1. Remove the mounting base from the sounder.
   

2. Locate the mounting holes and mark them using a pencil on the desired surface your are drilling.

   • Using a suitable-sized drill bit (6 mm) drill the marked screw points on your chosen surface.
   • Ensure you use the correct fixings for the type of surface you are mounting to.
   •  Screw the base to the ceiling using all fixing holes and appropriate-sized screws.
     

3. Put the sounder back onto the mounting base and secure with the two screws supplied.

   • Select the tone and volume you require (see next page)
   • Ensure the programming switch in the base of the sounder is in position ON
     

4. Fit the 2x CR123A batteries ensuring you have checked they are the correct way round observing the polarity indications on the base of the sounder base.

   •  The LED will signal 4 times red.
   •  Move the switch in the base of the sounder base to position 1.
   •  The LED will blink few seconds green and then signal alternatively green/red 4 times.
   • Ensure you replace the battery cover as this forms part of the sounder base anti tamper protection
     

5. Fit the battery compartment cover on the base.
   

6. Fit the detector or the blanking cap to the top of the device and secure the safety screw using a M3 allen key.

   • Put the QR code available in the box either on the system map or on the dedicated pages at the end of translator or expander manual.
