NOTICE:
THE THREE PULSE TEMPORAL PATTERN IS TO BE USED FOR EVACUATION USE ONLY.
THE SOUND OUTPUT FOR THE TEMPORAL 3 TONE IS RATED LOWER SINCE THE TIME THE HORN IS OFF IS AVERAGED INTO THE SOUND OUT PUT RATING. WHILE THE HORN IS PRODUCING A TONE
IN THE TEMPORAL 3 MODE ITS SOUND PRESSURE IS THE SAME AS THE CONTINUOUS MODE. UNITS HAVE BEEN TESTED TO 0°C, 49°C AND 93% HUMIDITY.
* Operating the horn in this mode at this voltage will result in not meeting the minimum ANSI/UL 464 sound level required for public mode fire protection service.
These settings are acceptable only for private mode fire alarm signaling use. Use the high dBA setting for public mode applications (the chime tone is always private mode).

Strobe light can not be seen when objects such as doors, furniture or walls block strobe light.
NOTICE:
THE VISUAL SIGNAL MUST BE IN THE DIRECT VIEWING AREA OF THE OCCUPANT IN ORDER TO BE SEEN.
VISUAL SIGNALS FOR THE HEARING IMPAIRED ARE ONLY ONE METHOD OF ALERTING THE HEARING IMPAIRED. VISUAL SIGNALS MAY NOT BE THE PREFERRED METHOD
FOR NOTIFYING ALL HEARING IMPAIRED INDIVIDUALS.
THE STROBE LIGHT MUST BE SEEN BY THE SLEEPING PERSON. IF THE PERSON HAS HEAD TURNED OR OTHERWISE UNABLE TO BE ALERTED BY VISUAL, THE STROBE
WILL NOT BE EFFECTIVE.
