Field-configurable jumper options are available for selecting the
desired dB output, temporal or steady sound output, and strobe signal
output.
The sounder strobe includes a field-configurable switch for selecting
the desired candela output. The candela output setting is locked in
place and remains visible after final installation.
This strobe features an enhanced synchronization circuit to comply
with the latest requirements of UL 1971 Signaling Devices for the
Hearing Impaired.
Synchronized operation requires that you connect the DC-M9416
Series Ceiling Mount Sounder Strobe to a NAC output set for Synch
Mode, or to a separate DC-M9410 Signal Synchronization Module.
