Installation Instructions for 6300, 6301, 6310 and 6311 ... - Faraday

Installation Instructions for 

6300, 6301, 6310 and 6311 Electronic Signal 

and 6304, and 6314 Electronic Signal W/Adapter Strobe 

(Selectable Candela / Sync/Non-Sync Strobe) 

IMPORTANT - All audible and visual signaling appliances must be installed in 

accordance with all applicable national and local fire alarm codes and any 

other required regulatory agency 

The Electronic Signal and the Adapter Strobe lights are designed for DC and 

FWR power sources 

The Electronic Signal and the Adapter Strobe lights must be connected to a 

compatible signal circuit with a steady current output and appropriate voltage 

The Adapter Strobe lights is designed to operate as a synchronized strobe 

when properly wired to a Model 5406 Sync Control unit or a compatible 

source of Faraday Sync Protocol When the Adapter Strobe light is connected 

to a conventional notification circuit, it will flash at a 1 Hz rate but it will not be 

synchronized 

The Model 6310 Series Electronic Audible Signal may be configured for steady 

or non-sync temporal operation When selecting temporal pattern output, the 

Electronic Audible Signal must be powered from a Non-Pulsing Notification 

Appliance Circuit See diagram at bottom of page for location of jumper for 

configuring Model 6310 Series Electronic Signal for steady or temporal output 

The Adapter Strobe lights can also be installed in systems needing synchronization 

(See Fig 8) For synchronization a Model 5406 Sync Control unit or a 

compatible source of Faraday Sync Protocol must be wired electrically 

before the strobes For synchronization load requirements see Installation 

Instructions for the 5406 Sync Control unit or compatible source of Faraday 

Sync Protocol 

NOTE: Audible part of 6304 and 6314 Electronic Signals are NOT 

for use in circuits needing synchronization and are NOT 

to be connected to a source of Faraday Sync Protocol 

Jumper Location for Model 6310, 6311 and 6314 

NOTE: When Selecting Temporal 

Pattern, the Horn Must be Powered 

From a Non-Pulsing Notification 

Appliance Circuit 

ON=TEMPORAL 

OFF=STEADY 

Temporal Selector Jumper 

Note: The 3 pulse temporal pattern is to be used for evacuation 

use only 

The Electronic Signal and the Adapter Strobe lights were only tested to the 

operating voltage limits of 16v and 32v Do Not apply 80% and 110% of 

these values for system operation 

The Electronic Signal and the Adapter Strobe lights are for indoor use only, 

+32ºF to 120ºF (0ºC to 49ºC) with a maximum humidity of 85% RH They can 

be either wall mounted or ceiling mounted 

The maximum number of 15 cd sync Adapter Strobes per circuit is 42 The 

maximum line impedance between any two adjacent Adapter Strobes to still 

remain in sync is 30 ohms Note: Do not exceed maximum recommended line 

impedance specified for the Notification Appliance Circuit 

Field repair of these signals is not to be attempted Malfunctioning units should 

be returned to the factory for repair or replacement 

As with all fire equipment periodic testing is required (Ref NFPA 72) Signals 

should be tested at least two times a year and more often if required by local 

and/or state codes Defective devices must be replaced immediately

adapter plate 

3 Mount the adapter plate to the electrical box using the appropriate 

screws provided Making sure that the adapter plate is mounted in 

the upright position 

(Note: When using a single gang outlet box make sure to use the holes 

labelled "single gang") 

4 Connect wiring (see fig 5) 

5 Mount the grill on to the adapter plate by first engaging the two 

slots in the bottom of the grille with the two tabs in the bottom of 

the adapter 


Mounting Instructions 

Wiring Note: Individual wires (especially heavy gauge wire) should be bent at 90° before attaching to screw Wiring should then 

carefully be pushed back into back box to minimize stress on the terminal block
