PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The 2GIG-CO1-345 is a carbon monoxide (CO) alarm with a built-in 
transmitter designed for use with the 2GIG-CNTRL-345 security system. 
The detector gives warning to alert against both the acute and chronic 
effects of CO poisoning. When carbon monoxide is detected, the alarm 
sounds a loud local alarm. When the local alarm sounds, the built-in 
transmitter sends a digitally coded wireless signal to the Control Panel 
every 20 seconds until the air has cleared and the detector is restored.

The 2GIG-CO1-345 detector can send four different signals: alarm, test, 
low battery, and status.

The local alarm can be silenced once by pressing the TEST/RESET 
button. The detector will continue to send an alarm signal every 20 
seconds. After 7 minutes, the alarm will sound again if there is still an 
unsafe CO concentration level. The reset function can be used only once 
for each alarm occurrence.

The Control Panel must be programmed to the detector’s serial 
number before system testing and operation.

 Refer to the Control 

Panel’s instructions for details on programming.

The detector is powered by one 3-volt lithium battery. The battery is 
supplied with the detector and can power the unit for more than one year. 
If the battery voltage drops below a preset level the alarm will sound a 
low battery chirp every 45 seconds and a low battery signal will be sent 
to the Control Panel.

When the detector reaches the end of its serviceable life (after about 6 
years) a permanent trouble condition will occur and cannot be reset.

Maintenance:

 Occasionally clean the outside casing with a cloth. Ensure 

that the holes on the front of the alarm are not blocked with dirt and dust. 

Do not paint, and do not use cleaning agents, bleach, or polish on 
the detector.
