Genesis GC Series signaling appliances feature:
• Field-configurable horn and strobe outputs. See Figure 2.
• Enhanced synchronization circuitry to comply with the latest
requirements of UL 1638 and CAN/ULC-S526.
• Input wiring test points on the front of the appliance when the
cover is removed.
Note: Synchronized operation requires a separately installed
synchronization device. See the control unit or remote booster/auxiliary
power supply compatibility list for compatible synchronization devices.
Configuration
Caution: Equipment damage hazard. Using excessive force when
removing the appliance cover may damage the cover and prevent it
from latching in place.
To configure the signaling appliance:
1. Remove the appliance cover. See Figure 1.
Insert a small, flat-bladed screwdriver into the slot at the bottom of
the appliance.
Gently pull up on the screwdriver to pry the bottom of the
appliance cover down and away from the appliance.
Lift the bottom of the cover out and over the top of the appliance.
2. Set the light and sound output switches. See Figure 2.
