Genesis EG1 Series signaling appliances feature: 

• 

Field-configurable horn and strobe outputs. See Figure 2. 

• 

Enhanced synchronization circuitry to comply with the latest 
requirements of UL 1638 and CAN/ULC-S526.  

• 

Input wiring test points on the front of the appliance when the 
cover is removed. 

Note: 

Synchronized operation requires a separately installed 

synchronization device. See the control unit or remote booster/auxiliary 
power supply compatibility list for compatible synchronization devices. 

Configuration 

Caution: 

Equipment damage hazard. Using excessive force when 

removing the appliance cover may damage the cover and prevent it 
from latching in place. 

To configure the signaling appliance: 

1.  Remove the appliance cover. See Figure 1. 

Insert a small, flat-bladed screwdriver into the slot at the bottom of 
the appliance. 
Gently pull up on the screwdriver to pry the bottom of the 
appliance cover down and away from the appliance. 
Lift the bottom of the cover out and over the top of the appliance. 

2.  Set the light and sound output switches. See Figure 2. 

3.  Replace the appliance cover.
