GENERAL:

AMT Multitone Appliances are UL Listed under Standard 464 for Audible Signal Appliances for Fire Protective Service and for General Signaling Service.
They are also ULC Listed under Standard CAN/ULC-S525-07 for Audible Signal Appliances for Fire Alarm Systems. They are listed for both indoor and
outdoor use with the backboxes specified in these instructions. (See Mounting Options A,B,C,D,E,F,G). Cooper Notification's AMT Appliances are
unique multitone alarm appliances with separate input terminals for each sound. They are the ideal choice for Halon Protection Systems and emergency
signaling systems where distinctive multiple alarm conditions are required. Eight groups of three self-prioritized sound outputs are provided with
separate electrically isolated input terminals for each sound (see Table 2 and 5 for sound selections). Sound output can be field set to provide either
HIGH (HI) dBA or STANDARD (STD) dBA sound output level. AMT Multitone Appliances can be field set for either 12VDC or 24VDC operation and are
designed for use with either filtered or unfiltered Full-Wave-Rectified (FWF) input voltage. All inputs are polarized for compatibility with standard reverse
supervision of circuit wiring by Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP).
