Strobe: The strobe will flash and the corresponding red
(alarm) LED will also flash
Vibrating Pad: The Vibrating Pad will vibrate.
Repeat the procedure with all alarms in the wireless
network.
Testing the network from the Strobe
Briefly press the test button on the strobe and release.
The Strobe will flash, and the Vibrating Pad will vibrate.
At the same time any alarm that is wirelessly interlinked
(“learned in”) to the network will also sound, the sound
pattern on each alarm corresponding to its type (smoke
or CO – see previous section). The flashing Strobe and
Vibrating Pad will be activated for the length of time
that the alarms sound. Both red (alarm) LEDs on the
Strobe will flash for a short time.
This confirms that the units are wirelessly interlinked.
Weekly Testing
It is recommended that a self-test of all the units in your
Wi-Safe 2 network is carried out weekly.
TESTING THE WI-SAFE 2 STROBE
AND VIBRATING PAD WITH
SMOKE/CO ALARMS
Testing the network from the Smoke Alarm or CO
alarm
Briefly press the test button on the smoke alarm or CO
alarm and release (fig5). The alarm will give an audible
sound (consisting of 2 cycles of 3 loud beeps on smoke
alarms, 2 cycles of 4 rapid beeps on CO alarms), then
stop automatically. The red (alarm) LED on the alarm
will flash rapidly during the audible signal. Any other
wirelessly interlinked alarms which are also part of the
network will also give an audible alarm, and then stop
automatically.
