Branchport Ave. Long Branch, N.J. () Thank you for using our products. www.coopernotification.com STALLATION STRUCTIONS SPSVC SAFEPATH SUPERVISED VOLUME CONTROL Use this product according to this instruction manual. Please keep this instruction manual for future reference. GENERAL: The SPSVC Supervised Volume Control is a watt volume attenuator that is listed under UL for installation with the Safepath SPS along with the SPB, SPB/, or SPB. It can be used to control the volume of a single speaker, multiple speakers or an entire audio loop up to watts. The SPSVC contains an override relay that will bypass the attenuator when the system is put into an alarm condition, thereby allowing the emergency notification message(s) to be announced at the maximum volume. The SPSVC is designed to be compatible with a UL listed volt supervised notification appliance circuit (). It is compatible with class B wiring and with class A wiring if used with the SPAPS Addressable Paging Splitter. NOTE: This model is recommended for use with.vrms supervised audio systems, but it can be used in.vrms systems if the speaker load is reduced to watts. NOTE: All CAUTIONS and WARNGS are identified by the symbol. All warnings are printed in bold capital letters. WARNG: PLEASE READ THESE STRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ANY OF THE FOLLOWG STRUCTIONS, CAUTIONS AND WARNGS COULD RESULT IMPROPER APPLICATION, STALLATION AND/OR OPERATION OF THESE PRODUCTS AN EMERGENCY SITUATION, WHICH COULD RESULT PROPERTY DAMAGE AND SERIOUS JURY OR DEATH TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS.

Only one SPSVC can be installed per audio zone; however, multiple units can be controlled by the same.. All fixed volume speakers must be placed before the SPSVC in the audio circuit. Any speakers placed after the unit will be able to be attenuated.. If the SPSVC is installed in a supervised audio system with class B wiring, then an endofline resistor () must be installed on the last speaker connected to the volume control unit.. Attach wires according to the label on the terminal block. The DC input/output terminals are interchangeable. If the SPSVC is the last unit on the, then an endofline resistor must be installed.. The maximum wire impedance between devices shall not exceed ohms. CAUTION: The SPSVC is not designed to be used on coded systems in which the applied voltage is cycled on and off. P G Sheet of

MOUNTG FORMATION: Although the limits shown for each mounting option comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC), Cooper Notification recommends use of the largest back box option shown and the use of approved stranded field wires, whenever possible, to provide additional wiring room for easy installation and minimum stress on the product from wiring. The back box must be UL listed. A B EXTENSION RG CAUTION: Check that the installed product will have sufficient clearance and wiring room prior to installing back boxes and conduit, especially if sheathed multiconductor cable or /" conduit fittings are used.. The SPSVC can be mounted to a ½ deep double gang box (Figure A) or a inch square, ½ deep box with a ½ extension ring and double gang ring (Figure B).. Conduit entrances to the back box should be selected to provide sufficient wiring clearance for the installed product.. When terminating field wires, do not use more lead length than required. Excess lead length could result in insufficient wiring space for the appliance. Do not pass additional wires through the back box. Such additional wires could result in insufficient wiring space for the device.. Verify that the SPSVC is oriented correctly before wiring. Position the unit so that the number is at the top.. The terminal block can accept wires from # to # AWG with one wire per each position. Strip wires ¼ of an inch. Insert the wires into the terminal block and turn the screws tightly to secure the wires. If using stranded wire, use care when inserting the wires to ensure that the wires do not fray and cross with the other wires.. Carefully push the unit into the back box. Use care and proper techniques to position the field wires in the back box so that they use minimum space and produce minimum stress on the product. If using rigid, heavy gauge wires, it may be necessary to prebend the wires so that the unit can be easily pushed into the back box.. Insert the mounting screws through the holes in the cover plate and fasten them.. Verify correct installation by testing the unit and the system in background music mode and alarm mode.
