OBSERVE PROPER POLARITY when 

making these connections. The striped 

wire is common and goes to position 2. 

The solid colored wire is signal high 

and goes to position 1. Each speaker 

connection  is color coded. Refer to the 

table below for wiring and position. 

 

The bottom module in the speaker 

array is an inactive module. This 

means there are no drivers contained 

in the module. The next module up is 

called module number one. The next 

one above module one  is called 

module number two etc.  These are 

referred to as active modules. Each 

active module contains four (4) drivers 

(2 pairs).  
 

Each pair is connected in parallel. The 

drivers contained in module number 

one are labeled A 1 and 2 (wired in 

parallel) and B 1 and 2 (wired in 

parallel).  A, C, E, G, I, and K drivers 

are in line with the conduit fitting at 

the base of the siren. Module number 

2 contains drivers C and D etc. Refer 

to figure 3-3  for driver orientation and 

wire location for active module one 

only. 

 

 

Each speaker array is supplied 

with a 50 foot cable. The number of 

conductors and colors vary from 

module to module. Model MOD4016 

and MOD6024 contain junction boxes 

in series with the 50 foot cable to allow 

connection to the speaker array. Refer 

to list below for number of wires per 

module and how many wires are used. 

 

 

MOD1004  

8 wires only 4 

are used. 

 

MOD2008 

8 wires all are 

used. 

 

MOD3012 

16 wires only 

12 are used. 

 

MOD4016 

16 wires all 

are used. 

 

MOD6024 

24 wires all are 

used.

   

   

MOD6048 

24 wires all are 

used.

 

 

 

 

 

3-4.  PRE-OPERATION CHECKOUT.

 

 

 

After the siren has been 

completely installed, perform the 

following checks before putting the 

siren into service. 

 

WARNING

 

 

The output sound level of a siren is 

capable of causing severe hearing 

discomfort or permanent hearing 

damage. Therefore, ALWAYS wear 

appropriate hearing protection when 

performing tests or maintenance on 

the siren, and post warnings to warn 

people before they are exposed to 

excessive sound pressure levels. 

 

 

 

A.  Make sure all connections in 

the Control Unit/Battery Box are 

correct and properly tightened. 

 

 

B.    Activate wail  on the control 

panel. Check for proper  sound output 

and siren tone. 

 

 

C.  After the installation is 

complete and it has been established 

that the siren is operating properly, 

Federal recommends that all control 

devices be padlocked to discourage 

tampering and vandalism.
