Discovery® Sounder VAD Base
Installation Guide
General
This guide describes the installation of the following base
Part number Product Description Category
45681-700 Discovery Sounder VAD Base (White) with isolator O
45681-292 White Cap only (Lockable) n/a
45681-293 Red Cap only (Lockable) n/a
Connect the device only to control panels using the Discovery protocol.
Warning
The Discovery Sounder VAD Base requires compatible  re alarm panel software to
operate. Please check with the panel manufacturer before installation.
Function
The Discovery Sounder VAD Base combines a sounder with a visual alarm, a detector base
and a short circuit isolator in one unit. It has up to 15 tone pairs, 7 volume settings, inde-
pendent control of sounder and VAD and fast turn-on functions. The con guration of the
sounder is set by the control panel. Please refer to the panel literature for details.
When the integral short circuit isolator operates, a yellow LED is visible through the
moulding opposite the XPERT card (see Fig 1.)
Note: The Discovery Sounder VAD Base is not suitable for outdoor use.
Mounting Instructions
The Discovery Sounder VAD Base may be secured to a UK standard conduit box or surface
mounted (providing there is access through the surface for cabling). If a detector is  tted,
lock it if required by screwing in the grub screw in the detector with a 1.5mm hex driver
(part no 29600-095).
The Discovery Sounder VAD Base is a ceiling mounted device. For coverage volume infor-
mation please refer to PP2476.
Wiring Details
Note: This product is polarity sensitive (supply reversal protected) and will not function if
wired incorrectly.
Terminate all loop cables in the two way terminal blocks. Connect the incoming loop
cables to L1 IN (–) and L2 (+) and the outgoing cables to L1 OUT (–) and L2 (+). Functional
earth or screen may be connected to the EARTH connection.
When using as a stand-alone unit, a cap is available (red cap part no 45681-293 or white
cap part no 45681-292) and is secured with a 1.5mm AF hexagon socket head screw. A
hexagonal driver (part no 29600-095) is available from Apollo.

Commissioning
It is important that the device be fully tested after installation. Many fault conditions are the
result of simple wiring errors. Check all connections to the unit.
Setup and Test Mode
These modes allow volume adjustment and functional testing locally. In test mode no
volume adjustment is possible.
The required mode is entered via the control panel and is con rmed by a red LED which
 ashes once a second on the sounder VAD. Sounder state (on/off) is controlled by placing
a magnet adjacent to the  ashing LED. When all LEDs  ash, withdraw the magnet. A suit-
able extendable magnetic wand is available, part no. 29650-001.
In setup mode the volume can be adjusted by holding the magnet adjacent to the  ash-
ing LED and removing it at the desired volume level. If min or max volume is reached, the
LEDs stop  ashing. To alter the direction of adjustment, remove the magnet for one second
and re-apply. Saving the volume setting is performed at the control panel.
XPERT Card Addressing
Select the desired address for the detector and remove the pips indicated in black. Remove
pips with a small screwdriver.
The sides of the included rectangular coverage range from 3.06m X 6.28m to
5.06m X 5.06m
Coverage radius of a single VAD = 2.50m
Centre dark spot radius of a single VAD = 0.97m
Depth of section from the ceiling = 2.40m
Centre to centre spacing of VADs + 1.53m
For alternative mounting heights, please contact Apollo Fire Detectors Limited
