SpectrAlert Advance selectable-output horns, strobes and
horn/strobes are rich with features guaranteed to cut installa-
tion times and maximize profits. The SpectrAlert Advance
series of notification appliances is designed to simplify your
installations, with features such as: plug-in designs, instant
feedback messages to ensure correct installation of individual Indoor Ceiling Outdoor Ceiling
devices, and eleven field-selectable candela settings for wall Horn/Strobe Strobe
and ceiling strobes and horn/strobes.

More specifically, when installing Advance products, first
attach a universal mounting plate to a four-inch square, four-
inch octagon, or double-gang junction box. The two-wire
mounting plate attaches to a single-gang junction box.
Then, connect the notification appliance circuit wiring to the
SEMS terminals on the mounting plate. Indoor Wall Indoor Ceiling

Finally, attach the horn, strobe, or horn/strobe to the mounting
plate by inserting the products tabs in the mounting plates
