Warning

The Discovery Open Area Voice Sounder requires compatible control panel software to 

operate. Please check with the panel manufacturer for compatibility before installation.

Function*

The Open Area Voice Sounder Visual Indicator has 3 tone/message pairs, 7 volume set-

tings, independent control of sounder and visual indicator and fast turn-on functions. The 

confi guration of the sounder is set by the control panel. Please refer to the panel literature 

for details.

Mounting the backbox

The backbox is removed by using an unlocking key to press in one of the retaining lugs.

The Open Area Voice Sounder has 6 slotted drillable holes in the backbox and can be 

installed directly to the mounting surface.

Wiring Details

Note: This product is polarity sensitive (supply reversal protected) and will not function if 

wired incorrectly.

Drill holes for cable entry as appropriate for the installation. Drill guides are marked on the 

backbox. Connect the loop cables to the terminal block, observing polarity and func-

tional earth/screen if applicable. The wiring terminals accept solid or stranded cables up 

to 2.5mm².

Commissioning

It is important that the device be fully tested after installation. Many fault conditions are 

the result of simple wiring errors. Check all connections to the unit.

Setup and Test Mode

These modes allow volume adjustment and functional testing locally. In test mode no 

volume adjustment is possible.

The required mode is entered via the control panel and is confi rmed by a red setup LED 

which fl ashes once a second. Sounder state is controlled by placing a magnet adjacent 

to the fl ashing setup LED. When the confi rmation LED fl ashes, withdraw the magnet. A suit-

able extendable magnetic wand is available, part no. 29650-001.

*The Visual Indicator function does not comply with the requirements of EN54-23
