NOTE: The LoudMouth is designed to assist in electrically monitoring Infloor Sales
& Serivce electric floor warming products for potential damage during product
installation and floor covering installation. Infloor Incorporated in no way ensures that
the potential damage will be found by the LoudMouth and is not liable for damage or
location, repair, labor, or any other costs associated with damage
that is found or not found by the LoudMouth.
9-volt battery
OPERATION
Make sure the mats and/or cables to be monitored are
not connected to a power source.
The LoudMouth is designed to monitor the mats or cables
individually. However, by making a temporary “series” con-
nection of multiple mats or cables, it can monitor up to three
products at one time.
1. FOR A SINGLE MAT OR CABLE: Insert each lead wire
from the mat or cable into the L1 and L2 terminals
(no polarity) with the ground wire inserted into the G ter-
minal. Tighten the terminal screws onto the wires.
FOR UP TO THREE MATS OR CABLES: Connect one
non-ground lead wire from one mat or cable into the L1
terminal. Connect one non-ground lead wire from a
DIFFERENT mat or cable into the L2 terminal. Now
connect the remaining lead wires so that the mats or
cables are in “series” with one another. If this is not done
properly, the LoudMouth may not correctly
monitor the mats. Lastly, connect all ground wires
from the mats or cables together to the G terminal using a
jumper wire. See schematics on reverse side
for proper connection to the LoudMouth.
2. Set the switch to the “ON” position.
3. A green light indicates the LoudMouth is operating.
4. Hang or place the LoudMouth where it can be seen and
heard during heating product installation.
5. A red light and alarm indicate lead wires have come loose
from terminals or damage has occurred to the heating
product.
6. Press the TEST button to simulate a damage condition
before beginning work and anytime during installation if
desired to confirm LoudMouth operation.
Call Infloor Sales & Service at 800 608-0562 if damage
or problems occur. Refer to the heating product Installa-tion
Manual for detailed installation instruction.

3. The alarm should sound and the red light
should be lit when there are no connec-
tions to a mat or cable. If these things

tion or replace the battery.

is monitoring the mat or cable for damage. Should the green light go out, replace
the battery before continuing work.
