SOUNDER OPENING PROCEDURE

In order to detach the upper sounder body from the base:

1. Insert the pins of the compatible key into the holes of one of the two side locking mechanisms.
2. Turn the key 90° to the left whilst applying light pressure.
3. Repeat this step for the second side locking mechanism; the locking mechanism appears as in picture 1 when in the open position (flush).
4. Detach the sounder body from the base by pulling gently to separate (picture 2).

When assembling or removing the front operating section of the sounder to/from the back box be careful to ensure the interconnection block is not twisted which may cause damage.
Perform such operations without using excessive force

MODULE’S EXTRACTION

1. Gently release the locking catch allowing the module to lift and rotate to release from the side wall.
2. Remove the module.

LINKING
The translator/expander module is waiting to achieve a wireless child device.

1. Move the link switch’s cursor from ON to the opposite side (BLANK side); HFW-SIM-01 indicates “Linking to the system”.
2. If linking outcome is ok: HFW-SIM-01 stops indicating “Linking to the system”.
3. If linking outcome is not ok: perform the LINKING RECOVERY procedure.

LINKING RECOVERY
In case something goes wrong with the linking operation:

1. Take out both batteries from their holders.
2. Move alternatively the link switch to ON / BLANK five times.
3. Move the link switch to ON.
4. Reinsert both batteries into their holders, oriented as per polarity marks.
5. Perform the LINKING procedure.

During all the duration of the linking phase, the module must be only a few inches away from the translator / expander module you are linking to.
