An audible alarm buzzer is included in the wiring harness for the GOS™ 10 hub. This alarm provides alerts when various statuses or events are triggered by the system, and should be installed in a location near the helm so the captain and other users can hear it. Make sure that the buzzer is not covered or surrounded by anything that may dampen the sound, because the ABYC A-33 standard requires the audible alarm to measure a minimum of 85dB at the operator position. Installing the alarm near the helm and uncovered should meet this requirement.

The alarm is already connected to the necessary power and signal wires, so no additional wiring connections are needed other than connecting the wiring harness to the hub.

The alarm wire length is 4 m (13 ft.). If this is not long enough to reach the proper installation location, you can cut and extend this using 22 AWG (0.34 mm²) wire and waterproof splice connectors.
