e-Q2B Siren System

Connecting the Federal Signal Microphone (P/N 258B8577-03)
The Federal Signal microphone provides high quality voice reproduction in for public address over
the siren speakers. The microphone push-to-talk switch overrides all siren functions, except radio
rebroadcast, for instant PA use. The microphone connection is not required for the siren to operate
properly.
There are two options for connecting the microphone through the FS Convergence Network: to
the control head or to siren amplifier. The options provide greater flexibility in selecting mounting
locations for the microphone. For instructions on adjusting the PA volume, which is available only
when the microphone is connected to the control head, see “Setting the Gain for Public Address
(PA)” on page 33.
To connect the microphone to the control head:
1.
Remove the rubber cover from the telephone jack on the front of the control head
(Figure 3.14).
2.
Insert the plug of the microphone cable into the microphone jack until it locks.
To connect the microphone to the front of siren amplifier, insert the plug of the microphone cable
into the microphone jack labeled
REMOTE MIC
until it locks.
