2. Prepare the electrical box or mounting surface according to standard practices.
3. Secure the device's mounting plate (if applicable) to the electrical box or surface.
4. Ensure the device is securely fastened and flush with the mounting surface.

3.2 Đấu dây

Wiring must be performed with power disconnected from the FACP. The GX93-W supports 12 AWG to 18 AWG wires. Observe proper polarity.

1. Connect the positive (+) wire from the FACP or power supply to the positive terminal on the GX93-W.
2. Connect the negative (-) wire from the FACP or power supply to the negative terminal on the GX93-W.
3. If using a synchronization module (e.g., Gentex GX91/GX93), refer to the synchronization module's manual for specific wiring instructions.
4. Đảm bảo tất cả các kết nối đều an toàn và cách điện đúng cách.

3.3 tậptage and Tone Selection

The GX93-W allows for field selection of operating voltage (12VDC or 24VDC) and tone type (temporal or continuous). Consult the device's internal jumpers or switches for configuration. Refer to the markings on the device for specific settings.

4. Hoạt động

The Gentex GX93-W mini-horn functions as an audible signaling device within a supervised fire alarm system. When activated by the FACP, it will emit an audible tone according to its configured settings (temporal or continuous).

• Temporal 3 Tone: This is a specific pattern of three short bursts followed by a pause, commonly used for fire evacuation signals. Note that the sound output rating for temporal 3 tone is averaged, meaning the peak sound pressure during the tone burst is higher than the stated average.
• Âm thanh liên tục: A steady, uninterrupted audible signal.
• Đồng bộ hóa: If connected to a compatible synchronization module, multiple GX93 Series horns will activate in a synchronized pattern.

5. Bảo trì

Regular maintenance ensures the continued reliable operation of your GX93-W mini-horn.

• Vệ sinh: Periodically clean the exterior of the device with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

KHAI THÁC. Xử lý sự cố

If the GX93-W mini-horn is not functioning as expected, consider the following:

• Không có âm thanh:
  • Check power supply to the FACP and the device.
  • Verify wiring connections for proper polarity and secure contact.
  • Ensure the FACP is activating the signaling circuit.
  • Xác nhận đúng voltage selection (12VDC or 24VDC) matches the power supply.
• Giọng điệu không chính xác:
  • Verify the tone selection settings (temporal or continuous) on the device.
  • If using a synchronization module, ensure it is correctly configured and functioning.
• Hoạt động không liên tục:
  • Kiểm tra dây dẫn xem có mối nối lỏng lẻo hoặc lớp cách điện bị hư hỏng không.
  • Kiểm tra voltage fluctuations from the power source.

If issues persist after troubleshooting, contact qualified fire alarm service personnel.
