Wireless Supervisor Photoelectric Smoke Detector
10
RED INDICATOR
When the red LED indicator (see
Figure 9
) flashes once in 30 seconds, it indicates
the detector is under normal operation. When the red LED flashes very frequently
and an audible alarm sounds simultaneously, it indicates that the detector senses
smoke.
NOTE:
The red LED behaves according to one of the following set modes:
Mode 1: The red LED indicator will not reset automatically at the end of an alarm
event. This means that after the smoke chamber is cleared, the audible alarm
will stop automatically, but the red LED indicator will continue to flash, until it
is manually restored by the user. To restore – press the test button for 2-3
seconds, the LED will stop flashing.
Mode 2 (Default): The red LED will reset automatically at the end of an alarm event.
The user can check to which mode the detector is defined and switch between modes.
• To check the mode, press the Test button. The red LED will light up. If the red LED
lights up continuously the detector is in Mode 1. If the red LED is blinking the
detector is in Mode 2.
• To switch from one mode to another, press the Test button for 8 seconds. The
buzzer will sound and the red LED will change its behavior either from a continuous
light to a blinking light or from a blinking light to a continuous light.
TESTING YOUR SMOKE DETECTOR
To be sure that detector is working
correctly test the detector weekly by
performing the following procedure:
Use your finger to firmly press the
test button. If the detector is
functioning correctly, the alarm horn
sounds. To stop the alarm horn,
press the test button again. If the
detector fails to test properly, have it
repaired or replaced immediately.
If the alarm horn begins to beep once
every 35 seconds, it means that the
detector’s batteries are weak.
Replace the batteries immediately.
Keep fresh batteries on hand for this
purpose.

NOTE:
Cooking smoke or a dusty furnace (sometimes called “friendly fires”
)
can cause the
alarm to sound. If this happens, open a window or fan the air to remove the smoke or
dust. The alarm will turn off as soon as the air is completely clear. Do not disconnect
the batteries from the detector. This will cancel your protection from fire.
