TrueAlert ES Addressable UL Listed Multi-Candela Weatherproof Notification Appliances Installation Instructions
Setting the strobe candela setting
1. The jumpers are factory set to FACP. Use this setting when programming the candela setting at the
4100ES FACP. The candela setting is visible through the strobe lens.
2. For manual selection, pull up the jumper and position the pins to select the correct candela setting: 15,
75, WP75, WP185 candela or FACP.
Note: To avoid a programming mismatch trouble, an authorized service personnel must program one
of the four candela outputs for each appliance. For additional information, see the 4100ES Programmer’s
Manual (574-849).
Setting the device configuration
Use the Device Configuration switch (SW3), on the back of the device, to configure certain options for the
horn and strobe directly on the device. See Figure 6.
