The cycling of the sounders can be used to set CT-A1 exit delay time (see page 9 ), annunciator 

duration (see page 10), and re-trigger hold-off time (see page 10). It may also be used to check all of 
the sounders without the need for a vehicle tripping the system.

The SD-6 is a dual-probe set that works with the CF-2C and differs from the CT-6 in that it can be 

as close as 10 feet to outside cross traffic. Only one SD-6 system can be used with a CF-2C control 
unit. For installation instructions, please refer to the manual accompanying the SD-6 dual-probe 
system.

See Figure 2 on page 2. The CF-2C is engineered to accept other sensing devices in conjunction 

with or exclusive of the CT-6 probe. You may use as many and as varied sensing devices as you 
like. To do so, you will need the following: 

1. A sensing device with a normally open, floating, dry relay contact
2. A 500 - 1000 ohm resistor

To connect your sensing device to the CF-2C, attach one side of the device to terminal 17, the

other side to terminal 19 and place a 500 - 1000 ohm resistor across those two terminals.

See Figure 2 on page 2. The FC-6 photocell is designed to be mounted on a window pane with its 

"eye" looking outside. Its distance from the control unit is not important. 

To insure good adhesion, clean the window area with alcohol. Peel off the double-sided tape cover 

paper and mount the photocell on the window. The hole on the sticky side of the photocell should be 
at the top, and the screw terminals situated so that the wires will be connected from the top. 

Using a 2-wire, shielded cable, connect the two primary wires to the screw terminal on the 

photocell. The shield drain wire does not connect to anything on the photocell. Cut it off there. 

At the CF-2C control unit, connect the SHIELD drain wire to terminal No. 16, and the two primary 

wires to terminals No. 7 and 15 (see Figure 2 on page 2). 

Note: Static discharge from lightning can damage the photocell. It is therefore important to use 

shielded cable for photocell hook up. 

SPECIAL  NOTE

 

The  FC-6  and  FC-12  photocells  are  manufactured  by  Cartell  and  function  as  a  light 

sensitive resistor.  Measuring with an  ohm  meter, the resistance generally  will  be  in the  2000 to  5000 
ohm  range  in  full  sunlight.  As  the  light  diminishes,  the  resistance  instantly  goes  up.  The  CF-2C 
floodlight  timer  circuit  is  locked  out  when  the  resistance  is  below  1  mg-ohm.  When  measuring  the 
resistance between the two leads going to the photocell, if the resistance does not vary with a change in 
light level, the photocell may have been damaged by lightning; if it is shorted or open, there may be wire 
damage. A lightning damaged photocell or a shorted wire will keep the CF-2C lights from coming on at 
night. An open wire to the photocell will allow the lights to come on day and night.

MOUNTING 

Install sounders in a single-gang electric box for flush mounting. 

WIRE 

Use CAT-5 wire. To avoid corrosion, solder-tin the ends of the wires before connecting to the 

sounder and control unit . Always connect the wire to the sounder first and then to the control unit.
