rent draw for various tone settings for chimes is listed in Table 
5. The sound measurements for various chime tone settings 
are shown in Table 6 for chime and chime/strobe products.

Mounting

Figure 4.

1.  

Attach mounting plate to junction box. The mounting 
plate is compatible with 4˝ square, single gang, double 
gang, and 4˝ octagon junction boxes. If using a back box 
skirt, attach the mounting plate to the skirt and then at-
tach the entire assembly to the junction box.

2.  

Connect field wiring according to terminal definitions.

3.  

If the product is not to be installed at this point, use the 
dust cover to prevent contamination of the wiring termi-
nals of the mounting plate.

4.  

To attach product to mounting plate, hook tabs on the 
product housing into the grooves on mounting plate. 
Then, swing product into position to engage the pins on 
the product with the terminals on the mounting plate. 
Make sure that the tabs on the back of the product hous-
ing fully engage with the mounting plate.

5.  

Secure product by tightening the single mounting screw 
in the front of the product housing.
