Figure 6: Horizontal Mounting
2. Insert the two screws provided and secure the
mounting plate to the wall or ceiling surface. (If
mounting in plasterboard or drywall, drill a 3/16 in.
hole and use the plastic anchors provided.)
3. After the mounting plate is secured, slide the alarm
over the mounting plate (see Figure 4 on page 2).
Important labels provided
Two labels have been provided that have important
information on what to do in case of an alarm. Add the
phone number of your emergency service provider in the
space provided. Place one label next to the alarm after it
is mounted, and one label near a fresh air source such
as a door or window.
Programming
The following section provides a general guideline for
programming (learning) the unit into control panel
memory. Refer to the panel documentation for complete
programming details.
To add the CO Alarm to panel memory:
1. Set the panel to program mode.
2. Proceed to the Learn/Add Sensors menu.
3. Select the desired sensor number.
4. Trip the wall tamper by removing the alarm body
from the mounting plate.
5. When the panel prompts you for sensor group
number, enter the appropriate group number based
on the system panel.
6. At the panel, exit program mode.
7. Place the alarm body back onto the mounting plate.
Note: Each CO Alarm is programmed with a unique ID when
manufactured. The unique ID is enrolled into the control panel
at the time of installation, allowing the CO alarm to
communicate with that specific control panel.
Testing
Note: This unit is sealed. The cover is not removable.
WARNING: The control panel must be placed into
sensor test mode while conducting any tests. Placing the
control panel into sensor test mode for all testing helps
to protect against false alarms and unintentional central
station reporting.
Due to the loudness of the alarm, we suggest that you
place your fingers over the sounder vent while testing
your alarm.
Caution: Continuous exposure to the high sound level of this
alarm over an extended period of time may cause hearing loss.
The CO Alarm provides three test modes:
• Normal CO Alarm test. Conducts an internal self
test and tests the sounder.
• RF communication test. Tests the communication
path with the control panel.
• CO Alarm functional gas test. Tests the functional
operation of the CO sensing element.
Normal CO Alarm test
1. Wait at least 10 minutes after installation to test the
CO Alarm.
2. Make sure the green Power LED is flashing for
normal operation.
3. Set the control panel to sensor test mode.
4. Press and hold the Test/Hush button until the unit
beeps once (approximately 1 second), and then
release the button. If the unit is operating properly,
you will hear four quick beeps, followed by 5
seconds of silence, followed by four quick beeps.
5. At the control panel, exit sensor test mode.
Note: This test mode does not test communication with the
control panel. You will receive a “Sensor Test Fail or Abort”
message when the control panel exits sensor test mode.
RF communication test
This section provides general guidelines for testing the
CO Alarm with the panel. Refer to the specific panel
documentation for complete testing details.
Before testing, ensure that your control panel is set to
sensor test mode. Setting your panel to sensor test
mode prevents an alarm signal from being transmitted to
the central monitoring station (if you have a monitored
system).
1. Wait at least 10 minutes after installation to test
the CO Alarm.
2. Make sure the green Power LED is flashing for
normal operation.
3. Set the control panel to sensor test mode.
4. Press and hold the Test/Hush button until the unit
beeps two times (approximately 5 seconds), and
then release the button. If the unit is operating
properly, you will hear four quick beeps. The unit
will send the RF test packets after the first four
beeps.
5. The control panel will beep and display the
number of RF packets received.
6. At the panel, exit sensor test mode.
CO inspection and functional gas test (for qualified
service technicians only)
Note: Consult the most recent version of NFPA 720 for more
information regarding the requirement for functional testing of
CO alarms and/or your Local Authority Having Jurisdiction
(AHJ).
A canned CO testing agent must be used for the CO
functional gas test.
