OPERATION

 

The FireFighter™ sensor is designed to listen to the alarm sounder of any smoke detector. Once confirmed as an 

alarm,  it will transmit a notification to the z-wave controller which if connected to a central monitoring station, will 

dispatch the  fire department.

 

WARNING: 

This audio detector is intended only for use with smoke detectors but it does not detect the presence of 

smoke, heat, or fire directly.

 

 

MOUNTING 

(

see 

IMAGE: 2 & 3

)

 

Included with this device is a mounting bracket, hardware and double sided tape. To ensure proper operation 
ensure the side of the device with the small holes is directly facing the sounder holes on the smoke detector. 
Secure  the mounting bracket to the wall or ceiling using the two mounting screws and double sided tape 
provided, then  secure the audio detector to the mounting bracket using the small screw provided. 

The 

FireFighter™ must be mounted  within 6 inches of the detector for optimal operation.

 

WARNING: 

Non-interconnected smoke detectors require an audio detector by each smoke detector sounder. 

 

This equipment should be installed in accordance with Chapter 2 of the National Fire Alarm Code, ANSI/NFPA 72, 
(National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269). Printed information describing proper 
installation, operation, testing, maintenance, evacuation planning, and repair service is to be provided with this 
equipment. Warning: Owner’s instruction notice: ’Not to be removed by anyone except occupant’.

 

 

Adding Sensor

 

A)

 

Be sure that the Z-Wave Controller you are using is compatible with the FireFighter™.  

B)

 

Either mount or move the sensor as close as possible to the place in the building where the sensor is to be mounted 
in order that the new Z-Wave node is added to the correct place in the mesh network routing tables.  

C)

 

To add the sensor to an existing Z-Wave network, follow the directions to put your Z-Wave Controller into add 
(inclusion) mode. The FireFighter™ enters add and remove (inclusion/exclusion) mode on pressing the learn 
button for 1 second which is located on the PCB between the LED and the tamper switch. If the LED starts 
blinking continuously, the sensor has no node ID and was not successfully added, so start step C over again.  

D)

 

If after 5 seconds the LED is not blinking, look on the Z-Wave controller’s interface for feedback on whether the 
sensor was added successfully. If you do not see any feedback that the sensor was added, follow directions for 
removing the sensor from a Z-Wave network, and then try adding the sensor again. If you are still having 
problems, you may need to add additional Z-Wave listening devices in-between the controller and the sensor. 
   

 

Removing Sensor

 

A)

 

Any sensor can be removed from any Z-Wave network with any Z-Wave controller. Follow the directions to put your 
Z-Wave Controller into Z-Wave exclusion mode. 

B)

 

Press the learn button located near the LED and Tamper switch. If successfully removed from the Z-wave network, 
the sensor’s LED should blink continuously if successful.
