Installation Sheet
Description
The Genesis Low Frequency (520 Hz) Horn-Strobe can be
used for applications where a low frequency alarm notification
appliance with strobe light output is required. The device is
designed for wall mounting and indoor use only. See Table 1
for a list of model numbers.
When this device is used as a low frequency sounder in
sleeping quarters, the strobe's candela switch (Figure 1) must
be set to 110 cd.
The horn-strobe includes field-configurable jumper options for
selecting:
•
Temporal or steady horn output
• Low dB or high dB output
• Temporal or continuous pattern strobe
The horn-strobe also includes a field-configurable switch for
setting the strobe candela level. This setting is locked in place
and is visible after final installation.
