Issue 10 Edwards Signaling Catalog u Speakers Standard Features • Unique low-profile design – The most compact UL/ULC listed speaker-strobe available – Ultra-slim, protrudes a mere one inch from the wall – Attractive appearance, no visible mounting screws • Field configurable – no need to remove the device! – ¼, ½, 1, or 2 watt operation and selectable candela output with convenient switches that remain visible even after the unit is installed • Unparalleled performance – loud 90 dBA output ensures clear, crisp audio – Exclusive FullLight strobe technology produces the industry’s most even light distribution – Precision timing electronics meet tough new synchronizing standards for strobes when used with compatibile modules – Optional field-configurable temporal strobe output – 25 Vrms and 70 Vrms models available, all supplied with a DC blocking capacitor for audio circuit supervision • Easy to install – Fits all standard 4” square electrical boxes with plenty of room behind the signal for extra wire – no extension ring or trim plate needed – #18 - #12 AWG terminals – ideal for long runs or using existing wiring Overview The Genesis line of life safety signals are the smallest, most compact audible-visible emergency signaling devices in the world. Protruding no more than one inch from the wall, Genesis speakers and speaker-strobes blend with any decor. Life safety appliances feature textured housings in architecturally neutral white or traditional life safety red. Thanks to patented breakthrough technology, Genesis strobes do not require bulky specular reflectors. Instead, an exclusive design channels and conditions light to produce a highly controllable distribution pattern. Speaker-strobes feature selectable candela output with a conven- iently-located switch on the bottom of the device. The candela setting remains clearly visible even after final installation. All Genesis speakers include a DC blocking capacitor to allow electrical supervision of the audio distribution circuit. The speaker with its sealed back construction provides extra durability and improved audibility. Patents pending MEA PENDING Genesis Speakers and Strobes Genesis EG4 Series

Issue 10 Speaker Application The suggested sound pressure level for each signaling zone used with alert or alarm signals is a minimum of 15 dB above the average ambient sound level or 5 dB above the maximum sound level having a duration of at least 60 seconds, whichever is greater. This is measured 5 feet (1.5 m) above the floor. Doubling the distance from the signal to the ear will theoretically cause a 6dB reduction in the received sound pressure level. The actual effect depends on the acoustic properties of materials in the space. Doubling the power output of a device (e.g.: a speaker from 1W to 2W) will in- crease the sound pressure level by 3dBA. Strobe Application Genesis clear-lensed strobes are UL 1971-listed for use indoors as wall-mounted public-mode notification appliances for the hearing impaired. Prevailing codes require strobes to be used where ambi- ent noise conditions exceed specified levels, where occupants use hearing protection, and in areas of public accommodation. All Genesis strobes meet UL synchronization requirements (within 10 milliseconds over a two-hour period) when used with a syn- chronization source. Synchronization is important in order to avoid epileptic sensitivity.

Speakers and speaker-strobes are flush mounted to a North- American 4” square electrical box, 21 /8” (54 mm) deep or a Euro- pean 100 mm square box. Signals may be surface mounted to a Genesis surface-mount box (see ordering information for details). Two tabs at the top of the signal unlock the cover to facilitate mounting. The shallow depth of Genesis devices leaves room behind the signal for extra wiring. Once installed with the cover in place, no mounting screws are visible. Grounding plate Optional Color-matched Surface mount box Standard electric box 5" (127 mm) 6.5"(165mm) 2.125"(54 mm) Edwards recommends that these speaker-strobes always be in- stalled in accordance with the latest recognized edition of national and local codes. Refer to installation sheet for mounting height information. Field Configuration Genesis speakers may be set for ¼, ½, 1, or 2 watt operation. The wattage setting is visible through a small window on the bottom of the device and is changed by simply sliding the switch until the desired setting appears in the window. The speaker does not have to be removed to change the wattage. Genesis speaker-strobes feature selectable candela output. The output setting is visible through a small window on the bottom of the device and is changed by simply sliding the switch until the desired setting appears in the window. The speaker-strobe does not have to be removed to change the output. 1 Bottom View Wattage switch 15 Candela switch To change strobe to temporal (private mode) cut JP1 JP1 Use the Candela Switch and the Wattage switch to set desired operation. Genesis speaker-strobes may also be configured for temporal flash. This battery-saving feature is intended for private mode signaling only. To set the device for temporal flash, snip the circuit board as shown in the Jumper Locations diagram above. WARNING: These devices will not operate without electrical power. As fires frequently cause power interruptions, we suggest you discuss further safeguards with your local fire protection specialist.
