Temporal Horn
Product description Specifications
Operating voltage: 20 to 31 Vdc or 20 to 27 Vfwr
The horn must be connected to a continuous voltage when
it is set to sound a temporal tone; it may be connected to
either a pulsed or continuous voltage when set to sound a
steady tone.
Horn operating current at low volume setting

See Table 1 for model numbers of compatible boxes.
To install the temporal horn:
1. The unit is set to 104 dBA at the factory. To set the output
to 99 dBA, remove the low output jumper from the circuit
board on the rear of the unit (see Figure 1). REMOVE FOR REMOVE FOR
LOW OUTPUT CONT. TONE
2. The unit is set to temporal tone at the factory. To set the
output to steady tone, remove the continuous tone jumper
from the circuit board on the rear of the unit (see Figure 1).
