1 Introduction
Telefire's TIP-224 is a conventional device that integrates an indoor horn and an
addressable output card, eliminating the need for an output module installed in a
separate box, therefore reducing material and labor cost. As an added benefit, the unit
contains a high-brightness LED.
The sounder contains an alarm LED that is viewable from 360°. This LED flashes when
polled by the control panel, indicating normal operation. During an alarm THE TIP-224
will sound interrupted beeps and the LED will flash more rapidly and brightly than during
normal operation.
2 Compatibility
2.1 Control Panels
The TIP-224 is compatible with the following control panels:
• All TSA-1000 models
• TSA-1000X
• TSA-200 and TSA-200X
• All GSA-1000 models
• GSA-2B
• The TIP-224 is compatible with Telefire's ADR-3000 Addressable Control Panel
when used with an ADR-823 or when connected directly to the HORN output.
2.2 Bases
The TIP-224 is compatible with Telefire's TFB-110 Standard Sounder Base.
3 Installation
Planning of quantity and location of sounders shall be done according to the local codes
and regulations and in accordance to the planning consultant's requirements.
The TIP-224 should be installed in an indoor location.
Mount the module on a solid wall at a height that will allow comfortable access to
connecting the cables and maintenance personnel for ongoing operations and in a
location where it is possible to supervise and clearly see the indicators.
