1.   To select the proper wattage input for the speaker.  Move the jumper to the appropriate pin.  

Refer to Section VII for the proper terminal.

2.   Always maintain electrical isolation between speaker and strobe wiring on combination units.

3.   Do not exceed 130% of rated speaker voltage.  If excessive distortion is heard, check 

amplifier for signal clipping.  If clipping exists, reduce either amplifier input or gain.

4.   When extension rings are used, the conduit should always enter through the backbox.

CAUTION

WHEN INSTALLING, ROUTE FIELD WIRING AWAY FROM SHARP

PROJECTIONS, CORNERS AND INTERNAL COMPONENTS.

NOTE:  Strobes are not recommended for use on coded or pulsing signaling circuits.

1.  Supply power to the system control panel.  The auxiliary signaling device should not be 

activated. 

2.  If the signal is activated:

a.  Check all smoke and fire detectors in the system to make sure they have not been 

activated.

b.  Check all wiring connections to make sure the signal detection circuits are not reversed or 

shorted together.  Check wire color codes and traces.

3.  To test the "SPKE" series and other signaling appliances, trip the auxiliary panel or activate 

alarm circuit at the main control panel or activate one of the fire detection units in the system.  

All auxiliary signals should be activated.

4.  An operational test on this product should be conducted in accordance with National Standards 

or at a minimum annually and more often if dictated by local and state codes or authorities 

having jurisdiction.

Your speaker meets or exceeds current audibility requirements of Underwriters Laboratories.  

However, if the appliance is located outside a bedroom it may not wake up a sound sleeper, 

especially if the room door is closed or only partially open.

Should you experience problems with your "SPKE" unit, proceed as follows:

1.  Turn off electrical power to the auxiliary alarm circuit.

2.  Unscrew the unit from the mounting box.

3.  Disconnect the unit from the field wiring.  Reconnect the two positive supply voltage circuits 

(red wires) and the two negative supply voltage circuits (black wires) of the auxiliary alarm 

circuit to maintain power to the other auxiliary alarm appliances in the system. 

4.  Carefully pack the defective unit (the manufacturer cannot be responsible for consequential 

damage due to shipping or mishandling).  Include your return address and complete details as 

to the nature of the difficulties being experienced and date of installation.
