TESTING

IMAGE: 1)
To test the RF transmission from the mounted position you can generate a tamper by removing the cove. This will
send a signal to the control panel. To test the audio detection, press and hold the smoke detector test button. If
you are using zone type 16 (Fire with Verification) you must press and hold the smoke detector button for at least 30
seconds to ensure that FireFighter™ has had sufficient time to identify the smoke alarm pattern and lock into alarm.
Ensure the FireFighter™ cover is on and that you wear hearing protection.
NOTE:
This system must be checked by a qualified technician at least once every three (3) years. Please test the unit once
per week to ensure proper functionality.
LED
The Firefighter™ is equipped with a multi-color LED. When a valid audio signal is heard the LED will turn red and
flash in sequence to the smoke detector sounder. When the Firefighter™ has determined the audio signal heard is
a valid alarm, the LED will turn solid red to indicate it has transmitted to the panel. On power up, the LED will stay
solid green for 2 seconds, then blink green 3 times every 5 seconds (approx.) when not enrolled with a panel.
REPLACING THE BATTERY
When the battery is low a signal will be sent to the control panel. To replace the battery:
1.
Remove the top cover to reveal the battery. This will send a tamper signal to the control panel.
2.
Replace with a Panasonic CR123A battery ensuring the + side of the battery faces as indicated on the device.
3.
Re-attach the cover, you should hear a click when the cover engages properly.
WARNING: While the audio detector monitors its own battery, it does not monitor the battery in the smoke
detectors. Batteries should be changed as per the original smoke detector manufacturer’s instructions. Always test
the audio detector and smoke alarms after battery installation to confirm proper operation
ATTENTION
: Bien que le détecteur audio surveille sa propre batterie, il ne contrôle pas la batterie dans les
détecteurs de fumée. Les piles doivent être changées selon les instructions du fabricant original de détecteur de
fumée. Toujours tester les détecteurs de fumée et alarmes audio après l'installation de la batterie pour confirmer
le bon fonctionnement.
