[9] DETECTOR STATUS INDICATION
Detector Status is indicated by the sensor LEDs. Refer to Table 3 on page 7 for
more details.
Note: The power board contains a diagnostic status indicator LED. However,
this LED is not visible under normal operating circumstances.
[10] INTERCONNECTION (MULTIPLE FAN SHUT DOWN)
When using the interconnect feature, an alarm from an initiating device will
switch the Aux Relays on the other devices interconnected.
[10.1] IMPORTANT INTERCONNECTION NOTES:
• When using the interconnect feature, all interconnected units must be
powered using the same independent supply.
• Polarity must be maintained throughout the interconnect wiring. Connect
the INT+ terminal on unit 1 to the INT+ terminal on unit 2 and so on.
Similarly, connect the INT/AUX- terminal on unit 1 to the INT/AUX- ter-
minal on unit 2 and so on.
• Up to 30 DSD240 units may be interconnected.
NOTE: Alarm can be reset only at the initiating device and not at the devices
interconnected.
[11] VERIFICATION OF OPERATION
[11.1] POWERING THE UNIT
Apply 24 VDC power to 9 and 10 terminals on the power board or apply 240
VAC on terminals named 240VAC. See Figure 7 and electrical specifications for
details.
[11.2] PERFORM DETECTOR CHECK
VERIFY STANDBY AND TROUBLE TEST per
Table 3
on page 7. The use of a
remote accessory for visible indication of power and alarm is recommended.
[11.3] SENSITIVITY VERIFICATION
The sensitivity of the sensor is confirmed to be operating within its allowable
range each time the sensor LEDs blink green every 5 seconds. Note in a main-
tenance condition, the sensor LEDs will blink red every 5 seconds as depicted
in
Table 3
on page 7. The maintenance condition indicates that the sensor is
operating outside its original factory preset sensitivity and shall be cleaned or
replaced. Replacement 2D51 sensors are available as a separate item. See Sec-
tion 9 for reference. This is a valid UL test.
[11.4] DETECTOR TESTING AND MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
Notify the proper authorities that the smoke detector system is undergoing
maintenance, and that the system will temporarily be out of service. Disable the
zone or system undergoing maintenance to prevent unwanted alarms and pos-
sible dispatch of the fire department.
[11.4.1] SMOKE RESPONSE TESTS
Option 1: Utilize smoke test port as described in
Table 2
.
Option 2: To determine if smoke is capable of entering the sensing chamber,
visually identify any obstructions. Plug the exhaust and sampling tube holes
to prevent ducted air from carrying smoke away from the detector head, then
blow smoke such as cotton wick, or punk directly at the head to cause an alarm.
REMEMBER TO REMOVE THE PLUGS AFTER THIS TEST, OR THE DETECTOR
WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY.

[11.4.2] SMOKE ENTRY USING AEROSOL SMOKE
This test is intended for low-flow systems (100-500 FPM). If the air speed is
greater than 500 FPM, use a conventional manometer to measure differential
pressure between the sampling tubes, as described in Section 7.1.
Drill a
1
/
4
inch hole 3 feet upstream from the duct smoke detector. With the air
handler on, measure the air velocity with an anemometer. Air speed must be
at least 100 FPM. Spray aerosol smoke* into the duct through the
1
/
4
inch hole
for five seconds. Wait two minutes for the duct smoke detector to alarm. If the
duct smoke detector alarms, air is flowing through the detector. Remove the
duct smoke detector cover and blow out the residual aerosol smoke from the
chamber and reset the duct smoke detector. Use duct tape to seal the aerosol
smoke entry hole.
*Aerosol smoke can be purchased from Home Safeguard Industries at home-
safeguard.com, model 25S Smoke Detector Tester, and Chekkit Smoke Detector
Tester model CHEK02 and CHEK06 available from SDi. When used properly,
the canned smoke agent will cause the smoke detector to go into alarm. Re-
fer to the manufacturer’s published instructions for proper use of the canned
smoke agent.
CAUTION
Canned aerosol simulated smoke (canned smoke agent) formulas will vary by
manufacturer. Misuse or overuse to these products may have long term ad-
verse effects on the smoke detector. Consult the canned smoke agent manufac-
turer’s published instructions for any further warnings or caution statements.
[11.5] INSTALL THE COVER
Install the covers making sure that the cover fits into the base groove. Tighten
the seven screws that are captured in the covers.
[11.6] DUCT CLEARING
After an ALARM event occurs, the unit may be reset by pressing the RESET
pushbutton. If the duct is not clear of smoke, the AUX relay will open for 20
seconds, to allow the fans to run and clear the duct of smoke. If the smoke
has cleared the unit will go into STANDBY, otherwise the unit will remain in
ALARM.
