YELP (Yelp Tone)
- When the rotary knob is in the YELP position, a fast, rise and fall tone is produced. Pressing the
MAN button or the vehicle’s steering wheel horn button (if the vehicle’s horn has been wired to the WS295HFS1),
changes the siren tone to a simulated air horn tone for as long as the button is pressed. Releasing the button causes
the siren to return to the Yelp tone. Please note that the WS295HFS1 microphone will override the siren function.
PIER (Piercer
TM
Tone)
- When the rotary knob is in the PIER position, an extremely fast, rise and fall tone is produced.
A pressing the MAN button or a single “tap” on the vehicle’s steering wheel horn button (if the vehicle’s horn has been
wired to the WS295HFS1), changes the siren tone to a simulated air horn tone for as long as the button is pressed.
Releasing the button causes the siren to return to the “Piercer
TM
” tone. Please note that the WS295HFS1 microphone
will override the siren function.
Volume Knob
The Volume Knob controls the volume of Public Address function.
Volume is increased by rotating the knob in a clockwise direction.
Rotating the volume knob in a counter-clockwise direction decreases
the volume produced by these features. The volume knob has no effect
on any siren tones produced.
To Adjust the Radio Repeat Levels:
Before using the 295HFS1, the Radio Repeat output volume must be adjusted to satisfactory operating
levels. To adjust this level, a small, flat blade screwdriver is needed.
Radio
Locate the Radio Repeat adjustment port (potentiometer) to the right
Repeat
of the Rotary Knob on the face of the control head. Set the volume
Volume
level of the vehicle’s two-way radio to it’s normal operating volume.
Turn the Rotory Knob on the control head to RAD to activate Radio
Repeat. Insert the screwdriver in the Radio Repeat adjustment port
and turn in clockwise direction to increase the sound level.
SI-TEST
®
SI-TEST
®
is a diagnostic feature of the WS295HFS1 and allows the
operator to confirm the proper operation of the siren speakers
connected to the WS295HFS1 without activating an audible siren
tone. To initiate SI-TEST
®
cycle, set the rotary knob to the RAD
position. Now press and hold the MAN button for at least 5 seconds.
As the siren is tested, its diagnostic indicator will turn on if no
problems are detected. If the indicator flashes, a problem with either
the siren or it’s connectors has been detected. Check the wire
connections of the failed speaker and repeat the SI-TEST
®
. If the
speaker fails the test again, have the siren itself inspected by a
qualified technician.
NOTE:
Installed speakers are tested by
generating an ultra-high frequency tone through each speaker.
Although these tones are inaudible to humans, be sure that there is
nobody within 5 feet of the speakers when SI-TEST
®
is running.
