Supplemental Alerts

Alerting devices notify people working in noisy areas of outside, transferred, and intercom calls. Connect an alert to one of the following:

Single-line telephone

MLX telephone with an MFM

Supplemental Alert Adapter (SAA) and analog multiline telephone

Alerts compatible with the SAA include horns, bells, chimes, and strobes. See “Supplemental Alert Adapter” for installation instructions.

NOTE:

The MFM in SAA mode and SAA support devices operate on 48 V DC.

You can connect alerts operating on 20 through 30 Hz to an MFM in tip/ring mode or a single-line telephone jack.
