2. Mount Smoke Detector Backplate
Secure backplate to the
mounting
surface
using the screws pro-
vided.
CAUTION: The dust
cover
protects
the
unit when not in ser-
vice.
Remove
the
dust
cover
before
use.
3. Install Batteries
If batteries are not
installed, install batter-
ies in the sequence
indicated.
Use
only
approved
Panasonic
CR123A,
Sanyo
CR123A or Duracell
DL123A batteries. If
batteries are installed,
remove the ‘Pull’ tab
to activate.
4. Mounting
• Detector Installation
Position the detector on to
the base plate using the
detector and base plate
alignment marks. Press the
detector gently in place
while rotating the detector
clockwise until the detector
snaps into place. Remove
the side tab from the lock-
ing tab to lock in place
(optional).
• Removal
Depress tab with a small slotted screwdriver. Rotate detector coun-
ter-clockwise until the alignment marks line up. Remove detector.
Installer Compensation Reset
Cleaning or replacement of the smoke sensor chamber changes the
background signal/noise of the detector; this requires the drift com-
pensation be reset. Compensation trouble is one of the faults indi-
cated when the LED indicator is OFF while the sounder is chirping.
1. Remove batteries, then short the detector battery contacts for 5
seconds to power down unit.
2.Replace batteries to power up unit while pressing the test but-
ton.
3.The tamper switch must not be pressed.
4.The LED will flash when 5 seconds has elapsed. Release the test
button within 2 seconds of the LED flash.
5.The LED will flash every 2 seconds for 1 minute. During this
period, the detector must be mounted.
Allow an additional 2 minutes for the detector to make back-
ground level checks.
6.Test the detector to verify normal operation.
5. Test Unit
NOTE:
The central monitoring station (if used) should be notified
prior to the test being generated. This will prevent a false alarm and
an unnecessary response from the central monitoring station.
Initiate test by pressing the test button for 5 seconds minimum.
Alarm activation is indicated by the flashing LED, the sounder, and
transmission of the alarm signal to the control panel. The detector
restores to normal when the test button is released.
NOTE:
Allow a minimum of 20 seconds after power up and , after
test, alarm or tamper restore activations. Do not use test button
when smoke is present.
NOTE:
If the detector is in one of the following states when a test is
initiated; it will not enter an alarm state.
•
Tamper, (detector not installed on mounting plate)
•
Compensation Trouble
•
Other internal faults that could prevent a smoke or heat alarm.
NOTE:
Smoke sensitivity of installed detectors can be measured
without removal or an alarm being generated using the FSD-100
Smoke Detector Test Meter.
To test the unit using the FSD-100, set the test meter up to read
devices as per the instructions supplied. Depress the test button on
the smoke detector for 1 second and release.
NOTE:
If the test button is held for 5 seconds or longer, an alarm
will be generated.
Move the test meter over the center of the detector, wait until you
hear the test meter beep, remove the unit and the information can
be immediately reviewed. Please see the instructions supplied with
the FSD-100 Smoke Detector Test Meter for more information.
6. Device Enrollment
The 6 digit serial number located on the back of the smoke detector
housing must be enrolled into the alarm control panel with Installer
programming. Refer to the receiver
Installation Manual
for details.
For placement tests remove detector from backplate for one second
(tamper) then reattach. Wait at least 30 seconds for test result before
activating again.
