NOTE: Cat. No. 89STR(*)-AQ and Cat. No. 89SMSTR(*)-AQ potentially generate timing signals or pulses above 9 kHz and therefore have been tested
and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to ra dio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference
at his own expense.
CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to
operate the equipment.

WARNINGS
To reduce the risk of shock, do not connect power
to the strobe until directed in these instructions.
To reduce the risk of shock, do not tamper with unit
when circuit is energized. Disconnect all power
and allow 5 minutes for stored energy to dissipate
before handling.
CAUTION
This unit is not serviceable or repairable. Should
the unit fail to operate, contact the supplier for
replacement.
3. (Figure 1) Position the mounting plate onto the electrical
box. Fasten the plate using two pan head slotted screws
(supplied).
4. For indoor surface mounting, ensure all conduit holes are
plugged.
5. (Figure 2) Connect the strobe wiring terminals on the unit to
a signal circuit that outputs a constant (not pulsed) voltage.
Polarity must be observed for units operating on 24V DC.
6. After connections are complete, mount the unit onto the
mounting plate. Fasten it using two countersunk Phillip head
screws (supplied).
7. Apply power and activate the strobe unit to verify that it is
operating properly.
Maintenance
Perform a visual inspection and an operational test twice a year.
