    For maximum weatherproofing the unit should be flat to the wall. 1.3 Adjusting Tamper Sensitivity Some Texecom external sounder models now include a patented* tamper adjustment feature. If greater wall/lid tamper sensitivity is required, the microswitch position can be adjusted by loosening the locking screw and altering the orientation of the microswitch as shown.

    * Premier Elite Sounders only Output to Activate Strobe For safety reasons, each Texecom sounder and strobe unit incorporates a unique patented engineer Hold‑Off mode. This mode prevents the unit from self-activating during installation and maintenance, thereby allowing only bona fide engineers...

    Grade 3 to monitor the status of the battery, the supply voltage and the integrity of the trigger wire. The two diagrams below show wiring configurations for Texecom control panels, and other manufacturers. Please check the Control Panel installation manual for any programming requirements relating to Grade 3 installations.

    recommend that the unit is initially powered on battery only for no longer than 24 hours. 1.6 Installing Multiple Units The following diagram illustrates how to wire multiple units together: If the first unit is opened it will self-activate and a tamper will be signalled to the control panel.

    battery rather than from the control panel. Although volume is somewhat reduced, lowering the current demand on the control panel will enable the connection of additional sounder units. To select SCB Mode, the unit should first be powered from the built-in battery by either using the jumper included on some models or by connecting the red battery wire from the “N/C”...

    2.0 Servicing Most control panels have a method of testing the siren and strobe, which should be utilised. Failing this, simply arm the system and cause an alarm to confirm correct operation. Temporarily disconnect the positive supply to the unit at the control panel to confirm that the sounder self-activates.

    3.0 Safety All strobes produce hazardous voltages. However, the unit includes dual circuit safety interlocks. When the strobe is de-activated it invokes a final flash to discharge the high voltage. Back-up circuitry guarantees discharge of the high voltage within 3 minutes. For your own safety be sure to observe the following precautions when installing and servicing the unit: NEVER remove the cover when the strobe is flashing.
