EE1243 EchoStream
®
Wireless Smoke
Detector
Installation Instructions
1 Overview
The EE1243 EchoStream wireless smoke detector is a wireless, battery
powered photoelectric smoke sensor. The sensor includes a built-in
sounder for alarm alerts, a visual status LED, a back tamper, and an
Inovonics transmitter. The sensor works as part of a security/fire alarm
system and communicates with the system control panel. Under normal
(non-alarm) conditions, the LED flashes once every eight seconds while
the sensor monitors the surrounding conditions. When the sensor detects
smoke, the LED lights, the built-in sounder beeps loudly, and an alarm
signal is transmitted. The smoke sensor is powered by the two included
three-volt lithium batteries. When the EE1243 detects an inactive smoke
sensor a tamper message will be transmitted.
