Installation instructions
Caution: Electrical supervision requires the wire run to be
broken at each terminal. Do not loop the signaling circuit field
wires around the terminals.
To install the chime:
1. Remove the cover by depressing both tabs on the top of
the unit with a small screwdriver and twisting slightly.
2. Set the chime signal, sound output level, and desired
operation settings. See Figure 1.
3. Connect the chime terminals to the signal circuit field
wiring. You must observe polarity for the unit to function
properly.
For constant non-coded voltage operation, see Figure 2.
For single-stroke coded voltage operation, see Figure 3.
4. Mount the unit onto a compatible electrical box, making
sure not to over tighten the mounting screws.
5. Replace the cover by aligning at the bottom, then
snapping in at the top.
6. Test the unit for proper operation.
Maintenance
This unit is not serviceable or repairable. Should the unit fail to
operate, contact the supplier for replacement.
Perform a visual inspection and an operational test twice a
year or as directed by the local authority having jurisdiction.
