NOTICE:
This manual shall be left with the owner/user of
this equipment.
General Description
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has pub-
lished standards and recommended practices for the speak-
ers described in this manual. As a result, the installer must
be familiar with these requirements as well as all local
codes and special requirements of the authority having ju-
risdiction.
SP200 series speakers can be operated with distribution
amplifiers having an output voltage of either 25 volts or
70.7 volts.
The speakers operate at any one of four input power levels.
The output sound level is selected at the time of installa-
tion, but can be changed, if necessary.
The speaker is also equipped with a capacitive input to al-
low for DC supervision.
Installation
All wiring must be installed in compliance with the Na-
tional Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes as
well as special requirements of the authority having juris-
diction, using the proper wire size. This also includes all
applicable NFPA Standards, ANSI/UL 1480, and NEC 760.
Electrical
1. Connect the speaker as shown in Figure 1.
NOTE:
Do NOT loop electrical wiring under terminal
screws. Wires connecting the device to the control
panel must be broken at the device terminal con-
nection in order to maintain electrical supervision.

2. See Figure 2 as an example of how to select a 1/4 Watt
input when a 25 volt amplifier is being used. Notice that
the header, SW1, has two shunts. One shunt is used to
select either 25 or 70.7 volts input. The other shunt is
used to select input power of 1/4, 1/2, 1 or 2 Watts.
