8. Installation / Activation / Wireless
You do NOT need a home wi-fi system to use these units. Multiple wireless units create their own indepen-
dent wireless alarm network (wireless interconnect between multiple alarms).
WARNING: THIS ALARM SHOULD BE INSTALLED BY A CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN.
WARNING: FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL AND ACTIVATE THIS ALARM WILL PREVENT
PROPER OPERATION AND RESPONSE TO HAZARDS.
If you are installing alarms and will use the wireless interconnect function, proceed to section
8.1 “Set Up a Wireless Alarm Network (Wireless Interconnect)” If you are not using the
wireless alarm-to-alarm interconnect function, then proceed with the following two steps.
1. After selecting the proper location for the alarm, attach the mounting bracket (trim plate) to the wall or
ceiling. To ensure aesthetic alignment of the alarm with the hallway, or wall, the “A” line on the mount-
ing bracket (trim plate) must be parallel with the hallway when ceiling mounted or horizontal when wall
mounted.
2. Install the alarm fully on the mounting bracket (trim plate) by rotating the alarm in a clockwise
direction.
NOTE
: Installing the alarm on the mounting bracket (trim plate) will automatically activate the battery.
The power up sequence is indicated by the LED ring slowly glowing GREEN on/off one time.
NOTE:
Alarms will emit a series of slow RED LED glowing on/off as the alarm searches for a wireless
network. If you are intending to use the alarms without the wireless interconnect function, ignore these
notifications, and the wireless interconnect function will eventually turn off (~15 minutes) OR to immediately
finish this process, push the Test/Hush button until two beeps are heard (approximately 4 seconds).
The LED will change to glowing GREEN on/off every second. Repeat the button push/hold for another 4
seconds, until two beeps are heard, and then release the button. This will close the network.
•
When the network has been closed, each alarm’s GREEN LED will change from glowing on/off every
second to flashing once every 60 seconds to indicate normal operation.
NOTE:
The battery activation is a one-time feature. After activation, the battery cannot be turned off, and
can only be discharged at the end of unit life. If the alarm is removed from the mounting plate, the battery
will remain active. See Permanently Disable Alarm / Discharge Battery section to de-energize the alarm.
