Cost-Effective Ceiling Speakers for Indoor Use

The 25AE, 30AE, 35AE, and 40AE paging speakers provide additional economical paging coverage to existing Viking paging units (PA-2A, PA-15, PA-30, PA-60, HF-3W, M2W) or to any system with an 8 ohm output.
In outdoor, factory or warehouse environments, 25AE or 300AE paging horns are the best method of producing understandable sound. In these environments the directional design allows the installer to focus the sound cone down aisles and toward work areas. In office and restaurant environments, it is best to distribute sound more evenly. Ceiling mounted 30AE, 35AE, 40AE, 40-IP and 40TB-IP speakers in close proximity offer the best distribution and are cost effective. The 35AE speakers include a volume control. 40-IP and 40TB-IP are used in SIP and Multicast applications.

RETURNING PRODUCT FOR REPAIR
The following procedure is for equipment that needs repair:

  1. Customer must contact Viking’s Technical Support Department at 715-3868666 to obtain a Return Authorization (RA) number. The customer MUST have a complete description of the problem, with all pertinent information regarding the defect, such as options set, conditions, symptoms, methods to duplicate problem, frequency of failure, etc.

  2. Packing: Return equipment in original box or in proper packing so that damage will not occur while in transit. The original product boxes are not designed for shipping – an overpack box is required to prevent damage in transit. Static-sensitive equipment such as a circuit board should be in an anti-static bag, sandwiched between foam and individually boxed. All equipment should be wrapped to avoid packing material lodging in or sticking to the equipment. Include ALL parts of the equipment. C.O.D. or freight collect shipments cannot be accepted. Ship cartons prepaid to:
    VIKING ELECTRONICS 1531 INDUSTRIAL STREET HUDSON, WI 54016

  3. Return shipping address: Be sure to include your return shipping address inside the box. We cannot ship to a PO Box.

  4. RA number on carton: In large printing, write the RA number on the outside of each carton being returned.

RETURNING PRODUCT FOR EXCHANGE
The following procedure is for equipment that has failed out-of-box (within 10 days of purchase):

  1. Customer must contact Viking’s Technical Support at 715-386-8666 to determine possible causes for the problem. The customer MUST be able to step through recommended tests for diagnosis.
  2. If the Technical Support Product Specialist determines that the equipment is defective based on the customer’s input and troubleshooting, a Return Authorization (RA) number will be issued. This number is valid for fourteen (14) calendar days from the date of issue.
  3. After obtaining the RA number, return the approved equipment to your distributor. Please reference the RA number on the paperwork being shipped back with the unit(s), and also the outside of the shipping box. The original product boxes are not designed for shipping – an overpack box is required to prevent damage in transit. Once your distributor receives the package, they will replace the product over the counter at no charge. The distributor will then return the product to Viking using the same RA number.
  4. The distributor will NOT exchange this product without first obtaining the RA number from you. If you haven’t followed the steps listed in 1, 2 and 3, be aware that you will have to pay a restocking charge.
