Installation
a. The sounder is installed by first mounting the base unit and making the
external wring connections to the base. The head unit then automatically
connects when it is attached to the base.
b. The sounder head is separated from the base by unlocking the four
¼-turn fasteners in the corners of the sounder. (Recommended
screwdriver: Philips No. 2, min 100mm long).
c. Note that the head only fits onto the base one way around.
Wiring
