4903 4904 TrueAlert Non Addressable A V and Free Run Strobe Instructions and Warnings NOT INSTALL ANY SIMPLEX PRODUCT THAT APPEARS DAMAGED Upon unpacking your Simplex product inspect contents of the carton for shipping damage If damage is apparent immediately file a claim with the carrier and notify Simplex HAZARD Disconnect electrical power when making any internal adjustments or repairs should be performed by qualified Simplex Representatives HAZARD Static electricity can damage components Therefore handle as follows Ground yourself before opening or installing components Keep uninstalled component wrapped in anti static material at all times use the 553 484 Static Control Kit FREQUENCY ENERGY This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual may cause interference to radio It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device pursuant Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such when operated in a commercial environment Operation of this equipment in a residential area may interference in which case the user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures may be to correct the interference Non Addressable A V and Strobe Operation TrueAlert 4903 Audible Visible A V and 4904 Strobe see Figure 1 are non wall mounted Notification Appliances that provide an audible and or A V or a Visible Only Strobe warning indication of an alarm condition activated from the control panel of a UL listed Simplex Fire Alarm System the Notification Appliance emits sound and or light it indicates the of an emergency situation that requires your immediate attention TrueAlert A V and Strobe are Notification Appliances that operate on a reverse Notification Appliance Circuit NAC When this NAC is in the reverse or supervision state these appliances do not operate and present a high to the circuit They operate their notification appliance actuators when respective NAC changes polarity entering the state Switchable A V 4 wire A V utilizes two circuits that operate independently The first circuit NAC1 controls the A V strobe circuit A V strobe is configured using a single position DIP switch The DIP switch set to configures the A V strobe circuit to Free Run the DIP switch set to configures the A V strobe circuit to synchronous operation Synchronous operation requires a Simplex sync module not supplied 4009 IDNet NAC Extender or 4010 Fire Alarm Control Panel FACP with a synchronous NAC circuit The factory default setting for SW1 is synchronous operation second circuit NAC2 controls the A V horn operation the A V horn follows the On Off state of the second NAC Free Run Strobe 2 wire Strobe activates a high intensity pulsed light output at a free run rate determined by circuitry within the unit The of the Strobe appliance flashes at a minimum rate of 1 Hz its flashing is asynchronous to any other signals are 3 models of each version of the 4903 A V and 4904 Strobe each has a different light output rating 15 candela 75 candela and candela TrueAlert A V and Strobe units are available in red and white color versions Table 1 through Table 3 describe A V and features and current ratings 1 TrueAlert Notification Appliances A V Strobe 2000 Simplex Time
