INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

SP-SVC SAFEPATH SUPERVISED VOLUME CONTROL

Use this product according to this instruction manual. Please keep this instruction manual for future reference.

GENERAL:

The SP-SVC Supervised Volume Control is a 35 watt volume attenuator that is listed under UL864 for installation with the Safepath

SP40/2 along with the SPB-160, SPB-80/4, or SPB-320. It can be used to control the volume of a single speaker, multiple speakers or

an entire audio loop up to 35 watts. The SP-SVC contains an override relay that will bypass the attenuator when the system is put into

an alarm condition, thereby allowing the emergency notification message(s) to be announced at the maximum volume. The SP-SVC

is designed to be compatible with a UL864 listed 24 volt supervised notification appliance circuit (NAC). It is compatible with class

B wiring and with class A wiring if used with the SP4-APS Addressable Paging Splitter.

NOTE: This model is recommended for use with 70.7VRMS supervised audio systems, but it can be used in 25.0VRMS systems if

the speaker load is reduced to 4 watts.

NOTE: All CAUTIONS and WARNINGS are identified by the symbol . All warnings are printed in bold capital letters.

WARNING: PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ANY OF THE

FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS, CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN IMPROPER APPLICATION,

INSTALLATION AND/OR OPERATION OF THESE PRODUCTS IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION, WHICH COULD

RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU AND/OR OTHERS.
