INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
AMT MULTITONE APPLIANCES
AMT-12/24-NYC
Use this product according to this instruction manual. Please keep this instruction manual for future reference.
GENERAL:
AMT Multitone Appliances are UL Listed for Fire Protective Service, General Signaling Service and UL Standard 464 for Audible Signal Appliances. They are
listed for both indoor and outdoor use with the backboxes specified in these instructions. (See Mounting Options A,B,C,D,E,F,G). Cooper Notification's AMT
Appliances are unique multitone alarm appliances with separate input terminals for each sound. They are the ideal choice for Halon Protection Systems and
emergency signaling systems where distinctive multiple alarm conditions are required. Eight groups of three self-prioritized sound outputs are provided with
separate electrically isolated input terminals for each sound (see Table 2 and 4 for sound selections). Sound output can be field set to provide either HIGH (HI)
dBA or STANDARD (STD) dBA sound output level. AMT Multitone Appliances can be field set for either 12VDC or 24VDC operation and are designed for
use with either filtered or unfiltered (full-wave-rectified) input voltage. All inputs are polarized for compatibility with standard reverse supervision of circuit
wiring by Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP).

WARNING: CHECK THE MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM OUTPUT OF THE POWER SUPPLY AND STANDBY BATTERY AND
SUBSTRACT THE VOLTAGE DROP FROM THE CIRCUIT WIRING RESISTANCE TO DETERMINE THE APPLIED VOLTAGE TO THE
SIGNALING APPLIANCE.
WARNING: FOR UL APPLIANCES THESE APPLIANCES WERE TESTED TO THE OPERATING VOLTAGE LIMITS OF 16-33 VOLTS
FOR 24V APPLICATIONS AND 8.0-17.5 VOLTS FOR 12V APPLICATIONS USING FILTERED (DC) OR UNFILTERED FULL-WAVE-
RECTIFIED (FWR). DO NOT APPLY 80% AND 110% OF THESE VOLTAGE VALUES FOR SYSTEM OEPRATION.
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE TOTAL RMS CURRENT REQUIRED BY ALL APPLIANCES THAT ARE CONNECTED TO THE
SYSTEM’S PRIMARY AND SECONDARY POWER SOURCES, NAC CIRCUITS, OR COOPER NOTIFICATIONS POWER SUPPLIES DO NOT
EXCEED THE POWER SOURCES’ RATED CAPACITY OR THE CURRENT RATINGS OF ANY FUSES ON THE CIRCUITS TO WHICH
THESE APPLIANCES ARE WIRED. OVERLOADING POWER SOURCES OR EXCEEDING FUSE RATINGS COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF
POWER AND FAILURE TO ALERT OCCUPANTS DURING AN EMERGENCY, WHICH COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS.
