ALL BATTERY UNITS HAVE (FIELD SELECTABLE) EMERGENCY FLASHING OPTION
If you want the unit to ash during AC power failure, place jumper (see above) on only the upper post
of J-1. If you want the unit to stay on solid during AC power failure, place jumper across both posts of
J-1.
FIRE ALARM OPTION (FAP)
The ashing FAP option requires eld wiring to the red and black wires provided on the connector P-
3 (on Battery units) and P-1 (on AC only units). The FAP can be activated with a 12 to 24 VAC signal, or
a polarized input (positive to red) of 12 to 24 VDC. The maximum current required to activate the FAP
is less than 2 MA per exit.
NOTE: If you are using a system that reverses polarity upon alarm you should connect its positive
to the black wire and its negative output to the red wire. This way when the polarity reverses the
FAP will activate. SPECIAL NOTE: Regardless of the selection of J-1, the exit will ash with the
introduction of FAP signal.
BEEPER OPTION (AVAILABLE ONLY ON BATTERY UNITS)
The audible beeper is a factory installed option on pins 3 & 4 of P-3, and requires no eld wiring. If
ordered as a FAP-BPR option (Fire alarm beeper), it becomes active only with the introduction of an
FAP signal. If ordered as a BPR option (Beeper only), it will become active with the loss of AC power.

INSTALLATION
1). Unpack and check for concealed transit damage. Report all transit damage to delivering carrier and le claim.
2). Remove END PLATE (two END PLATE SCREWS).
3). Carefully slide EXIT BOARD(s), FACEPLATE(s) and SHIELD(s), half-way out.
4). Disconnect EXIT BOARD PLUG(s).
5). Carefully remove EXIT BOARD(s), FACEPLATE(s), and SHIELD(s) from unit.
6). Select (top, end, or back) WIRING KNOCK-OUT and remove it.
7). OPTIONAL: Mount CANOPY to EXIT HOUSING with 2 CANOPY SCREWS, WASHERS & HEX NUTS (provided).
8). INSURE AC OUTLET POWER IS OFF TO PREVENT ELECTROCUTION !!!
9). Mount FIXTURE BAR to OUTLET BOX (with 2 OUTLET BOX SCREWS).
10). Screw NIPPLE into FIXTURE BAR.
11). Locate wires from exit sign transformer. Select and use either the BLACK WIRE (for 120v hookup) or ORANGE WIRE (for 277v
hookup). Use only one of these two wires. Unused wire should be capped.
12). Insert selected (BLACK or ORANGE) WIRE along with WHITE WIRE and GREEN GROUND WIRE through LOCKNUT, WASHER,
KNOCKOUT HOLE, NIPPLE, and BRACKET BAR.
13). Attach wires to service - insuring proper connection (white to white, black to black or orange to 277v, and green to GROUND SCREW
provided on FIXTURE BAR.
14). Slip HOUSING AND WASHER onto NIPPLE. (Secure with LOCKNUT. CAUTION: SECURE, BUT DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN !!!)
15). IMPORTANT: In signs with battery, red and black lead wires must be connected to battery or sign will not work upon power outage !!!
16). Select ash or no ash on AC fail with J-1 (See page 3).
17). Select proper ARROW KNOCKOUTS and very carefully remove them (SEE DETAIL ABOVE)!
18). Slide EXIT BOARD(s) back halfway into unit and reconnect EXIT BOARD PLUG(s).
19). Slide EXIT BOARD(s), FACEPLATE(s) and SHIELD(s), back into unit. Replace END PLATE (two END PLATE SCREWS).
20). Apply AC power and Push Test Button... EXIT !!!
