• Battery backup for maintaining clock time
• Battery backup charging circuit for charging 9V
NiCad/NiMh batteries
• DPDT relay contacts for muting paging and
background music during event tones

Features Applications
• Signal the beginning and end of class periods,
breaks, and lunch periods for schools
• Signal the beginning and end of shifts, breaks,
and lunch periods for factories and other
businesses
• Provides a door bell and/or alarm sounds over
an existing paging system, for such appli-
cations as door entry, fire, severe weather, etc.
• Use with Viking'sdigital announcers, to provide
timed messages
The CTG-1 has three contact closure inputs for triggering an emergency siren,
evacuation signal or a door bell sound.
The CTG-1 can be programmed to output
single, double or triple alert tones or buzzer
sounds with up to 128 events in a 24 hour
period. These tone/buzzer sounds are ideal for
indicating the start and end of shifts, break
times, lunch periods, etc. for factories, schools,
oror any business requiring an audible indication of specified times.

Clock, Event Time and Mode Display
Mode Button: Press to place the CTG-1
in the Lock, Set Time, Set Events or
Review/Cancel modes.
Clock and Event Time Setting
Button: Press the +or -/CANCEL
buttons to increase or decrease time.
The -/CANCEL switch is also used to
cancel an alert tone/buzzer sound
event when reviewing programming.
Alert Tones
Programming Buttons: After
setting an event time, press single,
double or triple to program 1, 2 or 3
alert tones/buzzer sounds for that
event time.
9V Battery Backup Connection:
A standard or rechargeable
(NiCad/NiMh) 9V battery must be
installed here to maintain the clock
time during power outages.
CTG-1 Output Volume Control:
Turn clockwise to increase volume of alert
tones/buzzer sounds, emergency and door
bell (chime) sounds (See Diagram 2 below).
*Note: When the alarm buzzer sound is selected (pin 6 shorted to pin 10), a double or triple programmed event will be
sounded twice, approximately three seconds apart.

Secondary Relay Contacts: These
activate in conjunction with pins 3, 4 and
5. You may solder to these PCB pads if
a second set of relay contacts are
required.
Battery Charge Shunt:
Note: Factory set default is OFF.
For rechargeable batteries, move the
Battery Charge shunt to the ON
position.

A. Typical Installation on the Paging Port of a Phone System
Connect the CTG-1 between your phone system and your paging amplifier as shown in Diagram 2 below. A 9V
battery must be installed in the CTG-1 to maintain clock time during a power outage. Either a standard or
rechargeable 9V battery will maintain the clock time for over 8 hours.

Input of Paging Amp

When the clock time matches an event time, the CTG-1 will output the corresponding single, double or triple alert tone or
buzzer sound. The CTG-1 will also open terminals 3 and 4 (normally closed) and close terminals 4 and 5 (normally
open), allowing the capability of switching out the audio from the phone system and switching in the alert tone from the
CTG-1. Similarly, while a contact closure is made shorting pins 7, 8 or 9 to pin 10, the CTG-1 will continuously output
the corresponding sound (door bell, evacuation signal or emergency siren). This will also open terminals 3 and 4, and
close terminals 4 and 5 for the duration of the contact closure input.
A. Setting Clock Time
1. Press the MODE button repeatedly until the SET TIME indicator lights.
2. Increase or decrease the clock time by pressing the +or -/CANCEL button until the desired time is displayed.
3. Leave the set time mode by pressing the MODE button.
Note: Either the +or -/CANCEL button MUST be pressed at least once prior to leaving the set time mode. The
clock will then start to run the moment you leave the set time mode, allowing you to synchronize the CTG-1 with
your building clocks.
B. Setting Timed Alert Tones
1. Press the MODE button repeatedly until the SET EVENTS indicator lights.
2. Increase or decrease the event time by pressing the +or -/CANCEL button until the desired event time is
displayed.
3. Press one of the single, double, or triple ALERT TONES buttons to choose the desired tone you wish to output at
the specific event time. A single, double, or triple confirmation beep should be heard.
Note: If more than 128 events have been entered, a long beep will be heard indicating that the event memory is full.
C. Reviewing and/or Canceling Timed Alert Tones
1. Press the MODE button repeatedly until the REVIEW/CANCEL indicator lights.
2. Press one of the ALERT TONES buttons (single, double, or triple) repeatedly to rotate through the event times
associated with that alert tone button.
Note: Event times are stored in the order of programming, not chronologically.
3. Press the -/CANCEL button to permanently cancel an event tone. The next consecutive event for that specific
alert tone will then be displayed.
D. Adjusting Output Volume
1. Short pins 7and 10 together. The door bell sound will then begin to chime.
2. Adjust the volume control potentiometer (see Diagram 2 in Installation, section A).
E. Activating Contact Closure Alarm Tones
To activate the following sounds, short the corresponding pins with a dry contact closure (see Diagram 2 in
Installation, section A).
1. Door Bell (Ding Dong) - Short pin 7to pin 10.
2. Evacuation Sound (Slow Whoop) - Short pin 8to pin 10.
3. Siren (Yelp) - Short pin 9to pin 10.
Note: While the appropriate contact closure is maintained the sounds will be repeated continuously.
When finished programming, press the MODE button until the LOCK indicator lights. In the lock mode, the time and
alert tone keys will be disabled and the current time will be displayed with the colon flashing once per second.

Other Applications
Use Viking'sDVA-2W digital voice announcer (Fax Back Document # 110) in conjunction with a CTG-1 to provide
time activated promotional voice messages over an existing paging system. The CTG-1 will be used only to provide
time activated contact closures to the DVA-2W for initiating multiple (up to 4 minutes total length) promotional
messages.
Note: It is recommended that a UPS (uninterruptable power source) be used to
maintain the proper message order in the DVA-2W during a power outage.
