the system configuration tool. When users need to disable the audible base , they will need to
select the “disable audible base” option.
When the audible base ABHW-4B and ABHW-4S is used with H/8700 series detectors, it can
be programmed to 1 output channel, and only 2 tone patterns (steady, temporal 3) can be
selected using the system configuration tool. When users need to disable the audible base,
they will need to select the “disable outputs” option.
Note: When users need to disable the ABHW-4B and ABHW-4S audible bases connected to
the entire loop consisting of H/8700 series and Global ASA/FD182 detectors, they will need to
select both the “disable outputs” and “disable audible base” options.
There are two methods for powering the audible base during alarm. They are “Loop powered”
and “External powered” which can be configured by the system configuration tool. The ABHW-
4B can be powered by loop power and external power, the ABHW-4S can only be powered by
external power.
For additional information please refer to installation manual of ABHW-4B (A6V10405587) and
