STEP 2:
Set desired alarm tone as follows (refer to Figure 3 and Table 6).
Multitone Strobe Appliances are field set for any one of eight alarm tones by setting a four-position switch (SW1) as shown in Figure
3 and Table 6. Use SW1 POS 2, 3, 4 to select the desired alarm tone.

NOTE:
The Code-3 Horn and Code-3 Tone (set on HIGH dBA) incorporate the temporal pattern specified by ANSI/NFPA for
standard emergency evacuation signaling. They should be used only for fire evacuation signaling and not for any other purpose.
The Horn and Bell Tones can be used on coded systems with a minimum On-Time of 1/4 second if the audible and strobe are wired to
operate independently. All other tones are recommended for use only on continuous (non-coded) systems.
WIRING INFORMATION:
Audible appliance and strobe operate independently.
Audible appliance and strobe operate in unison. Red and black shunt-wires are supplied.
1) Multitone Strobe models have in-out wiring
terminals that accept two #12 to #18 American
Wire Gauge (AWG) wires at each screw
terminal. Strip leads 3/8 inches and connect to
screw terminals.
2) Break all in-out wire runs on supervised circuits
to assure integrity of circuit supervision as
shown on right. The polarity shown in the
wiring diagrams is for operation of the
appliances. The polarity is reversed by the
FACP during supervision.
