4.2 Activating the Detector
To activate, pull the strip that protrudes from the back of the
detector.
Fig. 9 – Activation Strip
4.3 Pairing/Defaulting the Detector
To pair the detector to the control panel, you must set it to pairing
mode.
A.
Press and hold down the detector’s tamper switch.
B.
Insert the battery into the detector. Wait for the RF
module’s green LED to light.
C.
Release the tamper switch and press it again within 4
seconds. When the detector is in pairing mode, the
green LED starts to blink.
D.
Complete the pairing procedure on the control panel
(see the pairing instructions in the control panel’s
installation guide).
4.4 Testing the Unit
Before testing, set DIP switches
SW3
and
SW4
as required for
the particular application (see Para. 4.1).
A.
Insert the battery between the battery clips, at the correct
polarity.
For proper operation, only Lithium battery
(Panasonic type CR-2 or equivalent) should be used.
B.
Press the tamper switch once and release it.
Note:
Since the cover is removed and power is applied, a
tamper situation exists. Verify that the MCT-550 SMA
transmits (the LED lights briefly) once every 3 minutes,
regardless of SW4 setting.
C.
When you are satisfied that tamper alerts are transmitted
properly, put the cover on to return the tamper switch to its
normal (undisturbed) position. Wait slightly over 3 minutes to
verify that tamper transmissions cease. If all went well, secure
the front cover to the base with the case closure screw.
D.
Clean the flood sensor thoroughly with a rag. Bring the flood
sensor into contact with water and verify that the transmitter
LED lights, indicating that transmission is in progress. If SW4
is ON, wait 3 minutes to verify that the transmission is
repeated at 3-minute intervals.
E.
Dry the flood sensor using either blotting paper or a rag, thus
restoring it to the undisturbed state and observe the LED. If
SW3 is set to ON, a “restore” transmission will now take place.
F.
Refer to the target receiver’s installation instructions, and let
the receiver “learn” the ID code associated with the detector.
4.5 Maintenance
To ensure proper detector's operation, clean the flood sensor
thoroughly with a rag once a month and perform test.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If you encounter one of the following problems with the MCT-550
SMA, perform the suggested remedy:
Problem Remedy
Attempt to pair the detector is
unsuccessful.
Make sure that the detector
has been defaulted and is set
to pairing mode (see section
4.3).
The detector and the panel do
not communicate.
Perform the signal strength
testing procedure described in
the control panel installation
manual. Make sure that the
signal is sufficient. If
necessary, replace the
detector’s battery.
The detector sends a Low
Battery indication.
To ensure continuous proper
operation, replace the battery
within two weeks of the first
Low Battery indication.
Problem
Remedy
Panel does not arm because of
an unrecognized detector
malfunction
Consult with your installer or
system provider before you
disable a zone.
Disable the detector zone (see
the control panel user manual).
Note that disabling a sensor
zone lowers the overall security
level of your system.
