CONVENTIONAL WALL SOUNDER
COMPATIBILITY
This acoustic device is only compatible with conventional control panels and systems, unless an approved optional module is fitted. For more
specific information regarding compatibility refer to your fire security system supplier and the technical documentation concerning the control
panel in use.
INSTALLATION - IMPORTANT NOTES
Refer to national and international standards in use for spacing and positioning of the fire security's system devices; refer also to specific
standards and your supplier if the system is going to be installed in particular environments or environments where specific risks exist.
This device is to be used only with conventional control panels and systems (check the COMPATIBILITY paragraph).
This device must be wired according to the connection details described in this manual.
Disconnect the sounder line from the control panel before installing this device.
Test the device after installation.
SOUNDER OPENING PROCEDURE
In order to detach the upper sounder body from the base:
1) Insert the pins of the compatible key into the holes of one of the two side locking mechanisms.
2) Turn the key 90° to the left whilst applying light pressure.
3) Repeat this step for the second side locking mechanism; the locking mechanism appears as in picture 1 when
in the open position (flush).
4) Detach the sounder body from the base by pulling gently to separate (picture 3).
SOUNDER CLOSING PROCEDURE
In order to assemble the sounder body to the base:
1) Assemble the sounder body to the base using gentle pressure (picture 3).
2) Insert the pins of the compatible key into the holes of one of the two side locking mechanisms.
3) Turn the key 90° to the right.
4) Repeat this step for the second side locking mechanism, starting from point 2; the locking
mechanism appears as in picture 2 once closed (recessed).
5) To secure use the retaining screws, using the location holes on both sides of the base (picture 4).

picture 12.
Picture 12
The switches positioned upwards acquire value "1"; on the other hand, if positioned downwards acquire value "0".
1) From the MAIN TONE SET table or the ALTERNATE TONE SET table (the choice of the table depends on how the sounder's wiring has
been carried out) select the output alarm tone triggered when the sounder is activated.
2) Refer to the corresponding line of the "DIP configuration" column to select the five switch selection settings.
OUTPUT VOLUME SETTING
Use the DIP switch at the back of the sounder body to select the output volume; in particular, switches 6 and 7, highlighted in picture 13, are
used.
