The WX-268 Public Alert radio is equipped to connect a variety of special needs
accessory devices including strobe lights, pillow vibration modules and remote sirens.
Once connected, these devices will automatically be activated when the radio
receives an advisory, watch or warning for the duration of the radio siren or until you
press the Radio OFF button.
To connect a special needs accessory,
plug the device into the Remote Alert jack
on the rear panel of the radio shown in Fig.
1. This jack requires a 3.5 mm connector.
Note
: If an alert is blocked, the
accessory will not be activated. The Alert
Volume switch does not affect devices
connected to the remote alert ouput.

Wall Mount Installation
1. Remove the wall mount bracket from the package. Hold the bracket at the mounting
location with the narrow edge at the top. Use it as a template
to mark the positions for the screw holes on the wall or other
mounting surfaces.
2. Drill two screw holes and fix the screws onto the wall, using
the drywall anchors if necessary. Leave a space of about
3mm (1/8”) between the head of the screw and the wall.
3. Put the radio and the wall mount bracket together with the AC
adapter plug installed. Make sure all the clips are properly
set and the radio is secured.
4. Hang the radio with the wall mount onto the two screws on
the wall, make sure the installation is secure. Connect the
AC adapter to a power outlet to activate the radio.
Note: Be sure to install batteries before wall mounting
