Setting the Candela (SPPS-204 models)
The candela can be set to 15, 30, 75, 110, 185, 15/75.
Note: 185 cd setting is for General Signaling only.
The factory default setting is 15.
- Pull out the candela selector from the device.
- Re-insert the selector tab into the notch so that the desired candela setting is in the middle and shows through the window when the cover is in place.
(When removing or inserting the candela selector, ensure to keep it straight).
Note: Select the candela setting before installing the device in the
mounting plate.

| **Input*** | DIP Switch 1 |
|---|---|
| Regulated 24 VDC/FWR (Non-synchronized) | ON |
| Synchronized | OFF (default) |
*Note: Use “SYNC” when flash synchronization is required, either through
an external synchronization module or compatible FACU or PSU supporting MGC
sync protocol.
Use “NON-SYNC” when the appliances do not need to be synchronized.
Note: DIP switch 1 default setting is OFF, synchronized.
Note: DIP switch 2 is not used. By default it is OFF.

Note: This device should be installed as per applicable local codes and
standards and per the requirements of the authorities having jurisdiction. Use
the information in this document to determine the total power or current of
the devices. The total power or current of the devices must not exceed the
output rating of the power source. Refer to the FACU installation guide for
the wire size required according to the loop length and device’s power usage.
For maximum strobe operating current, please refer to Table 3.
Figure 4: Device connection
*Note: When using with Mircom or Secutron panel or sync module, use
MP-300 (3.9 kΩ).
Note: Wiring must be in accordance with CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical
Code, Part I, Safety Standard for Electrical Installations section 32 and NFPA
70.
CAUTION
FOR SYSTEM MONITORING – FOR ALL TERMINALS, DO NOT USE LOOPED WIRE UNDER
TERMINALS. BREAK WIRE RUN TO PROVIDE SUPERVISION OF CONNECTIONS.
Correct: Wire run is broken
Wrong: Wire is looped around terminal

Mounting to the Wall or Ceiling
MGC recommends spacing speaker/strobe appliances in compliance with CAN/ULC
S524 and NFPA72.
Note: Select the candela setting prior to installing the device in the
mounting plate.
Mount the unit to the wall or ceiling depending on the model.
When mounting on the wall, mount the enclosure with the word TOP at the top,
and mount the device with the MGC nameplate at the bottom.
- Before mounting, disassemble the unit as shown in figure 8.
- Secure the enclosure directly to the wall or ceiling.
- Attach the mounting plate to the 2 holes marked SP-ST on the enclosure with the 2 included mounting screws.
- Attach the speaker or speaker/strobe to the mounting plate with the 2 included screws.
- Attach the top cover with the included securing screw and snap the nameplate over the securing screw.
- Secure the transparent cover over the assembly with the 4 included screws.
