5. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps for proper installation of your wired strobe siren:

  1. Choose a Location: Select a suitable indoor or covered outdoor location for mounting. Ensure it is visible and audible, yet protected from direct weather elements. Consider a location where the siren is difficult for intruders to reach.
  2. Prepare Mounting Surface: Mark the positions for the mounting screws using the siren's mounting holes as a template.
  3. Mount the Siren: Secure the siren to the wall or desired surface using appropriate screws (not included). Ensure it is firmly attached.
  4. Wiring:
    • Identify the red and black wires extending from the siren.
    • Connect the red wire to the positive (+) 12V DC output terminal of your security alarm panel or power supply.
    • Connect the black wire to the negative (-) or common ground terminal of your security alarm panel or power supply.
    • Ensure all connections are secure and insulated to prevent short circuits.
  5. Test the System: After wiring, activate your alarm system to trigger the siren and verify that both the audible alarm and the flashing strobe light function correctly.

Important: Always refer to your security alarm panel's manual for specific wiring diagrams and compatibility information.

6. Operating Instructions

The Sonew Wired Strobe Siren operates in conjunction with your existing 12V DC security alarm system. It does not have independent controls.

  • Activation: When your security alarm system detects an intrusion or emergency and sends a 12V DC signal to the siren's input wires, the siren will immediately activate.
  • Alarm Output: Upon activation, the siren will emit a loud 120 dB audible alarm, and the integrated red LED strobe lights will begin to flash rapidly.
  • Deactivation: The siren will cease operation when the alarm system deactivates the 12V DC output signal, typically by disarming the system or resolving the alarm condition.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your strobe siren.

  • Cleaning: Periodically wipe the exterior of the siren with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Inspection: Annually inspect the wiring for any signs of wear, fraying, or damage. Ensure all connections remain secure.
  • Functionality Test: Test the siren's functionality regularly (e.g., monthly) by triggering your alarm system to ensure both the sound and strobe light are working.
  • Environmental Protection: If installed outdoors, ensure it remains protected from direct heavy rain or snow.
