STEP 1: 
 

Set desired input voltage and dBA sound output level as follows (Refer to Figures 2 and 3): 
 
AMT Multitone Appliances are field set for input voltage and dBA sound output level by inserting a Jumper Plug (DP1) and adjusting a four position 
Switch (SW1) as shown in Table 4 and Figures 2 and 3.  Use DP1 to select the desired voltage and SW1 Position 1 to select the dBA sound output level.

WARNING:  DO NOT APPLY 24VDC INPUT IF THE JUMPER PLUG (DP1) IS SET ON 12.  THIS CAN DAMAGE THE UNIT.  DOUBLE CHECK 

THE JUMPER PLUG (DP1) AND SWITCH (SW1) SETTINGS TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE CORRECT.  IMPROPER SETTINGS CAN DAMAGE THE 
UNIT OR RESULT IN NO SOUND OUTPUT OR A dBA SOUND OUTPUT LEVEL THAT IS BELOW THE MINIMUM CODE REQUIREMENTS FOR 
PUBLIC MODE FIRE PROTECTION, WHICH COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU AND/OR 
OTHERS. 
 
STEP 2: 

Set desired alarm tone as follows (refer to Figure 3 and Table 5). 
 
AMT Multitone Appliances are field set for any one of eight groups of self-prioritized tones by setting a four-position switch (SW1) as shown in Figure 3 
and Table 4.  Use SW1  POS 2, 3, 4 to select the desired alarm tone (refer to Table 5 below).

NOTE:

  The prioritized tones contained in each group is factory pre-set which can not be changed. 

 

NOTE

  The Code 3 Horn and Code 3 Tone (set on HIGH dBA) incorporate the temporal pattern specified by ANSI/NFPA for standard emergency 

evacuation signaling.  They should be used only for fire evacuation signaling and not for any other purpose. 
 
The Horn and Bell Tones can be used on coded systems with a minimum On-Time of 1/4 second if the audible and strobe are wired to operate 
independently.  All other tones are recommended for use only on continuous (non-coded) systems. 
 

WARNING:  THE AMT APPLIANCE IS A “FIRE ALARM DEVICE – DO NOT PAINT”.
