Description, Installation, and User Manual
Federal Signal

• All effective warning sounds may, in certain circumstances, cause permanent
hearing loss. Take appropriate precautions, such as wearing hearing protection. The
maximum sound level exposure limits specified in OSHA 29 CFR 1910 should not be
exceeded.
• For optimum sound distribution, do not install the loudspeakers where objects would
block any portion of the front of the system.
• Establish a procedure to check the signal system for proper activation and operation
routinely.
• Any maintenance to the unit MUST be performed by a trained electrician in
accordance with NEC Guidelines and local codes or a Federal Signal certified Service
Provider.
• Never alter the unit in any manner.
• The nameplate should NOT be obscured, as it contains cautionary and/or other
information of importance to maintenance personnel.
• After installation and completion of the initial system test, provide a copy of these
instructions to all personnel responsible for the operation, periodic testing, and
maintenance of the equipment.
• File these instructions in a safe place and refer to them when maintaining and/or
reinstalling the device.
Failure to follow all safety precautions and instructions may result in property damage,
serious injury, or death.
Installation and Service
• After installation or service, test the system to confirm that it is operating properly.
Test the system regularly to confirm that it will be operational in an emergency.
• If future service and operating personnel do not have these instructions to refer to,
the system may not provide the intended audible warning, and service personnel
may be exposed to death, permanent hearing loss, or other bodily injuries. File
these instructions in a safe place and refer to them periodically. Give a copy of these
instructions to new recruits and trainees. Also give a copy to anyone who is going to
service or repair the system.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than what
is contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel. Always test the system before using it after
repairs have been made.
Ethernet Wiring
• Unless shielded or run in conduit, Ethernet wiring must be at least six feet from bare
power wiring or lightning rods and associated wires, and at least six inches from
other wire (for example, antenna wires, doorbell wires, wires from transformers to
neon signs), steam or hot water pipes, and heating ducts.
• Do not place Ethernet wiring or connections in any conduit, outlet, or junction box
containing high voltage electrical wiring.
