Smartsiren 100 or 200 watt?

[Mattdecker]

Question for y'all. I have the SS2000SS-D. Are these 100 watt or 200 watt?

Someone told me 200 but I didn't think that was correct since it only has 3 speaker wires: a common, 100 watt, and 58 watt.

Thanks.

200

200

Ok thanks.

So my dumb question right now, cause I didn't find anything in the manual.

How to I wire it up to a second speaker? I'm debating on either running it as 200 watts or running it as a 100 watt and running a 100 watt remote galls siren to the accessory switches.

As of right now it is just wired up to a single 100 watt AS124 speaker.

Thanks. Guess I misread the speaker sections.

Guessing it won't hurt anything by running 1 100 watt speaker on it. May attempt to hook another up. Not sure.

Question again.

If I wire the 58 watt speaker wire up to the 2nd 100 watt speaker, will it be 200 watt?

I'm confused as how to make this 200 watt.

I have 3 speaker wires on it: common, 100 watt, and 58 watt.

1. Speaker.
The unit is designed to operate with
one 11-ohm 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 power cable lead and the two
speaker leads marked “2” to the SPEAKER HI
POWER or SPEAKER LO POWER power cable
leads.
Using 18 gauge wire, connect the
speaker leads (58W speakers to SPEAKER LO
POWER and 100W speakers to SPEAKER HI
POWER) as shown in Power Cable Wiring Diagram,
figure 3-6.

Both speaker wires labelled "1" to the common, both speaker wires labelled "2" to the HI POWER lead.

The siren will sense if there is one or two speakers hooked up. You do not hook up one of the speakers to the low power lead.

Ok. Mine must be just 100 watt. Mine only has the 3 I listed above. Just a common and a high and low power only.

Yes. That is what you use for 200 watt as well. The common and high. Wire both speakers to those two leads.

Oh ok. I think I'm understanding now. Sorry for the confusion.

So all I need to do is run the common and the high to the 1st speaker, then run another set from those wires to the 2nd speaker. Essentially making a "Y" on the common and the high.
