Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT
- The unit should be fitted with a fused spur incorporating an all pole disconnection device providing 3mm contact separation in all poles. Ensure fuse, cable size and gland type are rated sufficiently for the total load on the sounder circuit.
- Isolate the unit from the electricity supply before removing cover. Only suitably qualified personnel should gain access to the unit to perform adjustments to the tone or volume. WARNING: no user serviceable parts contained within the unit.
- For installations requiring ingress protection from water the 0- ring must be fitted between the sounder head and base.
To lock the sounder head onto the base simply locate and twist the head
clockwise until it clicks home. A locked head is released by inserting a tool
in the small hole on the side of the head and pressing to release the catch as
the head is rotatedanti-clockwise. The bung must be replaced to maintain the
weatherproofing.
Connect the unit to the 110V or 230V AC supply as marked on the terminals. Two
terminals are provided for each connection to allow cables to be looped in and
out.
Tone Selection and Volume Control
- The tone is selected using the 5 way dipswitch on the bottom of the sounder head. Refer to the table overleaf for details of the available tones and the switch settings required to select them.
- The sound output of the unit can be reduced by adjusting the potentiometer on the bottom of the sounder.
