Test mode
The test mode makes diagnostics of the detector easier, because the detector LED indicates
periodical communication and alarm memory.
How to start and end the test mode is
described in the ABAX 2 / ABAX controller manual / the INTEGRA 128-WRL control panel
manual.
The alarm memory is cleared after ending the test mode.
LED
LED indicates:
low battery – 3 short flashes every 30 seconds,
alarm – ON for 5 minutes.
When the ABAX 2 / ABAX system is running in the test mode, the LED indicates additionally:
periodical communication – short flash (80 milliseconds), and when the chamber is soiled
- 2 short flashes,
memory of alarm triggered by smoke sensor – flashing rapidly,
memory of alarm triggered by heat sensor – flashing slowly.
Energy saving mode (ECO)
If you want to prolong the battery life, you can enable in the detector the “ECO” option. When
the “ECO” option is enabled, the periodical communication takes place every 3 minutes. Thus
the battery life can be increased as much as fourfold. The option is only available in the
ABAX 2 system.
Detection of optical chamber soiling
The detector is monitoring the state of the optical chamber. Deposition of dust in it may lead
to malfunctioning of the device. When the optical chamber requires cleaning, this state is
indicated by the LED.
Battery status control
When the battery voltage is lower than 2.75 V, the detector indicates low battery: 3 short
flashes of LED and 3 short beeps every 30 seconds. The low battery info is sent during each
transmission to the controller / control panel.

Selecting a mounting location
The detector is designed for indoor installation.
The detector should be installed in location close to the building / apartment exit (e.g. in
the hall, lobby etc. – Fig. 2 and Fig. 3).
In the typical home or office applications, the detector should be installed on the ceiling,
as close as possible to the center of the room, at a distance of at least 0.5 meters from
the walls or other objects (Fig. 4).
Do not install the detector in places with high concentration of dust and/or formation and
condensation of water steam.
Do not install the detector near heaters, cookers, fans or air-conditioner outlets.
Do not install the detector in places where there is no unobstructed movement of air (e.g.
in recesses, niches, etc.).
