CONSIDERATIONS
An Extra Alert Switch allows you to turn an extra alert device on and off and
alternately select between two different connected alerting devices, such as a
strobe during business hours and a bell off-hours. You may also alternate
between two extra alert devices installed in different locations.
In addition, an extra alert switch allows you to use two extra alert devices
simultaneously. However, you may need a voice terminal power supply
when you have more than one extra alert device connect to the SAA. The
extra alert switch is compatible with MERLIN Plus extra alert devices (-48V).
If you want the SAA to automatically turn on the extra alert devices
connected to
the extra alert switch, plug the extra alert switch into the Alerter jack of the SAA.
If you want to use extra-alerting devices simultaneously, you need to plug the
modular cord for each device into a Line Bridging Adapter which you can
connect to either position (1) or position (2) on the bottom of the extra alert
switch.
For more information, contact your equipment dealer.

HOW TO USE
To set up your SAA:
1 Unplug the appropriate voice terminal from its modular wall jack, and
plug it into the jack labeled V.T. on your SAA.
2 Plug one end of the modular cord into the jack labeled C.U. on the SAA
and the other end into the voice terminal’s modular wall jack.
3 Plug the modular cord from the extra alert device into the jack labeled
Alerter on the SAA.
To have the extra Bert device turn on when a call rings at the appropriate
voice terminal, turn the SAA to the On position.
If you want to use more than one extra alert device alternately:
1 Turn the extra alert switch’s knob to the appropriate On position labeled
(1) or (2).
For example, if you connect a bell to position (1) and a strobe to
position (2), turn the control switch to position (1) to operate the bell and
to position (2) to operate the strobe.
If you want to use more than one extra alert device simultaneously:
1 Turn the extra alert switch knob to the appropriate On position labeled (1)
or (2). For example, if you connect a bell and a strobe to a line bridging
adapter and the adapter to position (1) on the SAA, turn the control
switch to this position.
