Smoke Detector
If your facility is using wireless Smoke Detectors in conjunction with your Series
6.0 System, a Smoke alarm event is reported in the Event List each time a Smoke
Detector is activated. A Smoke Detector is supervised; a routine signal is sent from
the device and if the signal is not received by the system, a Device Fault event is
generated in the Event List at the computer. The Smoke Detector is powered by a
replaceable 3V battery.
To mount the Smoke Detector
1. Remove the detector body from its mounting base by twisting the detector counter clockwise.
2. Hold the base of the Smoke Detector enclosure against the wall at the desired mounting height or
on the ceiling.
3. Mark the location of the two mounting holes.
4. Drill holes where the marks were made.
If the drilled holes do not hit a stud wall, you must use wall anchors.
5. Line up the holes on the base of the enclosure with the newly drilled holes.
6. Mount the base of the enclosure to the wall or ceiling using two drywall screws.
7. If necessary, insert the 3V battery (see “To replace the battery in a Smoke Detector”).
8. Replace the detector back onto its mounting base.
To set up the Smoke Detector for use with your software
1. Activate the Smoke Detector by placing it in alarm. Press the Test/Silence button until the LED
lights or the sounder activates (about 4 seconds).
2. If the Smoke Detector is working properly, the Central Server will sense the Smoke Detector when
it goes into alarm and add it to its list of devices.
3. Reset the alarming device by pressing the Test/Silence button until the LED lights or the sounder
activates (about 4 seconds).
4. At the Central Server, update the Smoke Detector information, for example, giving it a name and/or
assigning it to a room or unit. Refer to the “Update Devices” section in the Series 6.0 Software
Administrator Guide (PN 0510-1080).
To replace the battery in a Smoke Detector
1. With the Smoke Detector facing you, remove the detector body from
its mounting base by twisting the detector counter clockwise.
2. Insert two AA half-size batteries into the battery holder as shown. Be
sure to align the positive (+) end of the battery as marked on the
batteries and battery holder.
3. Replace the detector back onto its mounting base.
NOTE: More specific mounting and testing specifications can be found in the
manufacturer’s instructions (included with the product).
