INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
SERIES SM AND SMX SYNCHRONIZATION (SYNC) MODULE
Use this product according to this instruction manual. Please keep this instruction manual for future reference.
GENERAL:
Wheelock’s Sync Modules (Series SM) are uniquely designed to accept two independent strobe and audible inputs and convert to a
single output that connects to Wheelock’s Series AS and NS appliances. When interfaced with the sync module, the audible strobes
produce the synchronized code 3 horn and synchronized strobe upon actuation. The audible portion of the AS and NS can be
controlled independently from the strobe, using only a 2-wire alarm circuit. They are the ideal choice for alarm systems where an
audible silencing feature is required during an alarm condition. The SM is UL Listed under Standard 1971 (Emergency Appliances
for the Hearing Impaired) for indoor use Fire Protective Service and ULC Listed under CAN/ULC-S525-99 for Audible Signaling
Appliances for Fire Alarm Systems. All inputs are polarized for compatibility with standard reverse polarity supervision of circuit
wiring by a Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP).
The table below shows the additional Wheelock products that can be used with the SM Sync Modules.
