Genesis WG4 Outdoor Horn-
Strobe Installation Sheet
Description
The Genesis WG4 Outdoor Horn-Strobe is a life safety notification
appliance designed for indoor or outdoor use on ceilings or on walls.
See Table 1 for a list of models and Table 2 for a list of accessories.
For surface mount applications, mount the WG4 onto a Model 449
electrical box using the gasket shipped with the appliance. For flush
mount applications where the mounting surface is flush with the
surface of the wall or ceiling, use the WG4GSKT gasket kit.
Note that you need a Model 449 electrical box for waterproof
applications, or a standard mount 4 in. square box for all other
applications.
The horn-strobe includes field-configurable jumper options that allow
you to set the strobe pattern to temporal or continuous, the horn
pattern to temporal or continuous, and the horn volume to low or high.
The horn-strobe also includes a field-configurable switch for setting the
strobe candela level. This setting is locked in place and is visible after
final installation.

synchronization source. See Table 3. When connecting the horn-
strobe to a listed control panel, verify synchronization operation on the
compatibility list for the corresponding panel.
