INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION OF THE WHISTLE
AND SETTING OF THE SIGNAL TONES
Important notice: in order to ensure complete water-tightness, the loudspeaker driver unit is
supplied with a factory fitted electrical cable 1,0 m long, tin-plated and 2x1,5mm² section. Do not
replace this cable or open the driver unit as the cable gland has a security tag to prevent tampering
and consequential warranty invalidations. A suitable terminal junction box should be used to
complete the cable connections.
1. Mount the loudspeaker in a slightly downward tilt position in order to prevent water entrapment
inside the cone.
2. Open the Electronic Controller coverlid and identify the marked 8 pin terminal block.
3. Complete the electrical installation as shown in the attached wiring diagram.
4. Commutator and pushbutton switch connections and customisation of the tone signals(refer to
the attached installation diagram)
5. Microphone connection: look at the diagram attached
A. Manual Tone. To obtain a manually activated free tone, install a pushbutton switch
control across the terminal contacts marked 1 and 2.
NOTE - THIS PUSHBUTTON HAS ALWAYS ABSOLUTE PRIORITY OVER ALL OTHER
FUNCTIONS, INCLUDING THE MICROPHONE.
B. Fog Horn Signal-60/90 seconds. A fog-horn signal repeated at 60”or 90” intervals is
obtained with dip switch, putting connections across the terminal pins marked 1 and 3 as per the
attached diagram. The default signal is a tone of 5” duration.
Note - The activation of this tone is pre-empted by a 0.3” acoustical beep
C. Customized Tone. The Fog Horn default signal of 5” duration can be substituted by a
customized tone setting, respectively intervalled at 60” or 90” depending on the dip switch position.

Procedure to set a customized tone
1) Activate the automatic Fog Horn switch control.
2) Input a chosen series of short/long tones, maximum 8 tones, DURING THE PAUSE INTERVAL
PHASE OF THE FOG HORN CYCLE, by pressing the Manual Tone pushbutton accordingly.
Note - Short(2”) and long(5”) tones are automatically generated depending on the activation time
of the pushbutton (activation time shorter than 2” = a short tone, while activation time longer than 2”
= a long tone). To confirm the customized sequence you have to put the fog signal switch on “OFF”
position by 10 sec. from latest sound of customized sequence.
One sound beep follow this operation (5 seconds) and confirm the memorisation of customized
sequence.
3) To re-instate the default signal follow up customisation tone procedures by pressing the
Manual Tone pushbutton with a single impulse longer than 2”.
D. Aux input. To activate the external sound signal use the 4 stud terminal block as per the
attached diagram
Note - All previous functions (a./b./c./d.) are operable with optional control panel
Problem Resolutions: in the case of a system malfunction proceed as follows :
Check fuse continuity and replace if necessary
Disconnect loudspeaker connections at the controller box and check the Ω reading between the
connections using a tester.
- If reading is zero (short circuit) or infinity (open circuit), verify the loudspeaker line continuity and if
problem persists then return only the driver to your Customer Service Centre.
- If reading is between 5 - 8 Ω, then the loudapeaker unit is functional and only the electronic
controller box should be returned to your Customer Service Centre.
