Creating Your multiLINX Network

The EX20-HT Alarm communicates on its own private multiLINX network. This

network is created simply by powering up new alarms one at a time.

General Note: The multiLINX network is limited

to 18 total units. Only 12 of these units may be

smoke alarms, the remaining units can be CO and

heat alarms

The blue RADIO light will begin to flash slowly.

While the blue RADIO light is flashing at this rate,

additional alarms may be added to your network.

Activate your next alarm by moving its slide

switch as shown above.

This alarm has been added to

your network!

Activate your first alarm by moving the slide

switch located on the back side of the alarm in

the direction indicated by the arrow.

The switch will lock into place. This allows the

alarm to be mounted to its bractet

One minute after activating the last alarm, the

RADIO light will stop flashing on the original

alarm, and it will join the network. The network

is now closed.

Continue activating each new alarm, one alarm

at a time, until all alarms have been added to the

network. This should include smoke and heat

alarms as well.

General Note: It is easiest to first create the

multiLINX network while all alarms are located

together, such as on a table.

The blue RADIO light will flash briefly, then the

alarm will chirp twice and all four of the lighted

icons will strobe on in succession.

Note: This switch is connected to a lock-out

mechanism that will prevent installation on the

bracket until activated.
