NOTE:
Smoke detectors are not to be used with
detector guards unless the combination has been
evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.
Pick smoke-detector location.
Referring to the
NFPA standard on page 3, select a suitable loca-
tion to mount the GEMC-WL-SMK.
Note:
Mount-
ing the GEMC-WL-SMK on foil-backed wallpaper is NOT
recommended because the radio range will be reduced.
Install mounting plate.
Use the two screws
and anchors provided to attach the mounting
plate to the wall or ceiling.
NOTE:
Do not install
on removable surfaces such as ceiling tiles.
Map the GEMC-WL-SMK Transmitter.
Referring
to the instructions for the panel and keypad in use,
enter the following:
•
the zone to which the transmitter will be mapped;
•
the 6-digit RF identification number/1-digit check-
sum number printed on the transmitter (include all
numbers and/or letters and leading zeros, if any);
and
•
the transmitter point number ("1").
NOTE:
In fire alarm installations, the control panel
must be programmed to activate the fire alarm bells or
horns upon detection of a fire.
Low Battery Chirp Silence
Allows temporary disabling of the Low Battery Chirp ("sleep")
for 12 hours. Press TEST button during low battery condition
to enter Mode.
Smoke Alarm
Sounder and red LED both turn on continuously.
Silencing the Unit
To silence the unit
during a smoke alarm, press and hold
the TEST button for 10 seconds to temporarily silence the unit
for 5 minutes.
Maintenance Warning
The smoke detector will warn that it must be cleaned when
the unit flashes the red LED every 5 seconds and the unit
does not pass the weekly test by the user (see #8 at left). To
clean the smoke detector, vacuum the outside of the unit at
least once a year (preferably every six months) using a soft
brush attachment.
Do not attempt to clean the unit in any
other way.
If this maintenance procedure fails to clean the
unit sufficiently, call for service and/or replace the unit.
Test system weekly with unit mounted.
If the
system is monitored, notify central station of im-
pending test. Press and hold TEST button (using a
non-conductive pointed object such as a toothpick) for 5
seconds after the local alarm sounds. The sounder will
turn on while the button is pressed; if the unit is operating
within its proper sensitivity limits and is not in a low battery
condition, the green LED turns off and the red LED turns
on continuously. Verify that the GEMC-WL-SMK triggers
the correct zone on the control panel and that the correct
report is sent to the central station.
HOLD BUTTON FOR AT LEAST 5 SEC-
ONDS AFTER LOCAL ALARM SOUNDS
TO SEND AN ALARM TRANSMISSION
Attach the GEMC-WL-SMK to mounting
