GENERAL:

The Multitone Strobe Appliances can provide a non-synchronized strobe appliance when connected directly to a Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP), or
provide a synchronized strobe appliance when used in conjunction with a Sync Module (SM), Dual Sync Module (DSM) or Wheelock's Power Supplies.
All models in the MT Series are for wall mount only, with the backboxes specified in these instructions (See Mounting Options). An outdoor backbox is
required for outdoor installation. The Multitone Strobe Appliances use a Xenon flashtube with solid state circuitry enclosed in a rugged Lexan® lens to
provide maximum visibility and reliability for effective visible signaling.
NOTE: "Lexan" is a registered trademark of General Electric Company.
Multitone Strobe Appliances can be field set to produce any one of eight commonly used alarm tones. Sound output can be field set to provide either
HIGH (HI) dBA or STANDARD (STD) dBA sound output level.
All Multitone Strobe models are designed for use with either filtered DC or unfiltered Full-Wave-Rectified (FWR) input voltage. The Multitone Strobe
Appliances have separate input terminals for alarm tone activation and strobe activation. Shunt wires are provided to operate both the alarm tone and the
strobe simultaneously on a single input circuit (See Wiring Diagram). All inputs are polarized for compatibility with standard reverse polarity
supervision of circuit wiring by a Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP).
