TABLE NOTES: 1) *Operating the horn in this mode at this voltage will not meet the minimum UL reverberant sound level
required for public mode fire protective service. These settings are acceptable only for private mode fire alarm use. Use the high
dBA setting for public mode application (not applicable when using the chime tone — the chime tone is always private mode).
2) The sound output for the temporal 3 tone is rated lower, as the time the horn is off is averaged into the sound output rating.
While the horn is producing a tone in the temporal 3 mode, its sound pressure is the same as when in continuous mode.
