5. Operation and Tone Selection
The MTG-10 operates by receiving an audio input and generating a selected tone at its output. The primary operational aspect is the selection of the desired tone.
Tone Selection Method:
The MTG-10 offers 10 distinct tones, including various siren, warble, and chime sounds. These tones are selected by making specific connections between the SELECT COM (pin 6) and the TONE SELECTION pins (1-5). The exact combination for each tone is typically provided in the detailed wiring diagram or installation manual that accompanies the product. Users should refer to that specific documentation for precise tone mapping.
Generally, connecting one or more of pins 1-5 to pin 6 (SELECT COM) will activate a specific tone. For exampLI:
- Connecting Pin 1 to SELECT COM might produce a standard chime.
- Connecting Pin 2 to SELECT COM might produce a warble tone.
- Combinations of pins (e.g., Pin 1 and Pin 3 to SELECT COM) may produce other unique tones.
The device also supports priority override for siren and evacuation tones, ensuring critical alerts are heard. The 15-second recording notification tone is a configurable feature, which can be enabled or disabled based on system requirements.
