A. GENERAL.

The 100-watt output of the basic Model PA300 was designed to drive a single high power speaker. However, the essential difference between models is that the PA300*012-NY can drive one or two 11-ohm impedance, high or low power speakers. When two speakers are used they must be connected in parallel. B. MANUAL CHANGES.

The unit is designed to operate with one 11ohm impedance speaker or two 11-ohm impedance low power (58W) or high power (100W) speakers, connected in parallel and in phase. On FEDERAL speakers, this can be accomplished by connecting the two speaker leads marked "1" to the SPEAKER COMMON control cable lead and the two speaker leads marked "2" to the SPEAKER HI POWER or SPEAKER LO POWER control cable leads See the Control Cable Wiring Diagram (new). A speaker is not included as part of the electronic siren. FEDERAL speakers are weatherproof
