PROGRAMMING

 

 

Smoke Time.

  The length of time that the Smoke Screen 

will produce ‘smoke’ can be varied 

between 15 seconds and 6 minutes.  The delivery smoke time setting is 15 seconds, which is 
equivalent to approximately 75 cubic metres of smoke.  The smoke time is set as follows: 
 

 

Change Dip Switch 2 to ‘ON’ (LED should alternate Red / Green to indicate in programming 
mode). 
 

 

Press the ‘PB1’ button for 10 seconds. When the buzzer beeps twice the timer is set to 15 
seconds. 
 

  Each subsequent press of 

the ‘PB1’ button will extend the smoke time by 15 seconds, up to 

a maximum of 6 minutes. 
 

  When the required smoke 

time setting is reached change Dip Switch 2 to ‘OFF’. 

 

 

If a mistake is made in programming the run time change Dip Switch 2 to ‘OFF’ and start 
again.  

 

UPS Monitoring.

  The Sentinel S30 can be set to monitor the UPS (if fitted) and enable the UPS 

relay output.  To alternate UPS monitoring between on and off follow this procedure: 
 

 

Change Dip Switch 2 to ‘ON’ (LED should alternate Red / Green to indicate in programming 
mode). 

 

Press ‘PB2’ for 10 seconds.  When the buzzer beeps twice the UPS monitoring has been 
changed between on and off.  

 

When finished change Dip Switch 2 to ‘OFF’. 

 

Note: If there is a UPS fault or no UPS is fitted the LED will flash twice every 5 seconds 
accompanied by 3 short beeps every 30 seconds.  

 

Trigger Mode.

  The delivery settings of the 3 sets of input connections on the Smoke Screen 

(Alarm Set, Trigger and Hold Off) 

are normally closed going open to activate (Dip 1 set to ‘ON’).  

These can be chang

ed to normally open going closed to activate by changing Dip 1 to ‘OFF’. 

 

OPERATION

 

 
While the Smoke Screen is heating up the LED indicator will be Red.  If any of the access panels are 
open the LED indicator will flash yellow once every 5 seconds; a tamper indication will prevent the 
Smoke Screen from producing smoke.  When the Smoke Screen reaches the correct working 
temperature, all tamper circuits are closed and a full Smoke Fluid Bag has been correctly installed, the 
LED Indicator will go Green. 
 

Stopping smoke.

  

If the ‘Hold-Off’ is closed during an activation the Smoke Screen will continue to 

produce smoke for the set Smoke Time.  An activation can only be stopped by closing the ‘Alarm Set’ 
and/or the ‘Trigger’. 
 

Re-triggering smoke 

(Hold-off attached)

.

  If, after it has made smoke for the pre-set time, the Smoke 

Screen receives another hold-off alarm with 

open ‘Alarm Set’ and ‘Trigger’ inputs it will ‘re-trigger’ and 

make smoke again.
