Installer Compensation Reset

Cleaning or replacement of the smoke sensor chamber changes

the background signal/noise of the detector; this requires the

drift compensation be reset. Compensation trouble is one of the

faults indicated when the LED indicator is OFF while the sounder

is chirping.

1. Remove batteries, then short the detector battery contacts for 5

seconds to power down unit.

2.Replace batteries to power up unit while pressing the test but-

ton.

3.The tamper switch must not be pressed.

4.The LED will flash when 5 seconds has elapsed. Release the test

button within 2 seconds of the LED flash.

5.The LED will flash every 2 seconds for 1 minute. During this

period, the detector must be mounted.

Allow an additional 2 minutes for the detector to make

background level checks.

6.Test the detector to verify normal operation.

5. Test Unit

NOTE: The central monitoring station (if used) should be notified

prior to the test being generated. This will prevent a false alarm

and an unnecessary response from the central monitoring sta-

tion.

Initiate test by pressing the test button for 5 seconds minimum.

Alarm activation is indicated by the flashing LED, the sounder,

and transmission of the alarm signal to the control panel. The

detector restores to normal when the test button is released.

NOTE: Allow a minimum of 20 seconds after power up and ,

after test, alarm or tamper restore activations. Do not use test

button when smoke is present.

NOTE: If the detector is in one of the following states when a

test is initiated; it will not enter an alarm state.

• Tamper, (detector not installed on mounting plate)

• Compensation Trouble

• Other internal faults that could prevent a smoke or heat alarm.

NOTE: Smoke sensitivity of installed detectors can be measured

without removal or an alarm being generated using the FSD-100

Smoke Detector Test Meter.

To test the unit using the FSD-100, set the test meter up to read

devices as per the instructions supplied. Depress the test button

on the smoke detector for 1 second and release.

NOTE: If the test button is held for 5 seconds or longer, an alarm

will be generated.

Move the test meter over the center of the detector, wait until

you hear the test meter beep, remove the unit and the informa-

tion can be immediately reviewed. Please see the instructions

supplied with the FSD-100 Smoke Detector Test Meter for more

information.

6. Device Enrollment

The 6 digit serial number located on the back of the smoke

detector housing must be enrolled into the alarm control panel

with Installer programming. Refer to the receiver Installation

Manual for details. For placement tests remove detector from

backplate for one second (tamper) then reattach. Wait at least 30

seconds for test result before activating again.

Fire Safety In The Home

Most fires occur in the home, and to minimize this danger, it is

recommended that a household fire safety audit be conducted

and a family escape plan be developed.

Household Fire Safety Audit

1. Are all electrical appliances and outlets in safe condition? Check

for frayed cords, overloaded lighting circuits, etc. If you are

uncertain about the condition of your electrical appliances or

household service, have a professional evaluation.

2.Are all flammable liquids safely stored in closed containers, and

in a cool and well ventilated area? Cleaning the unit with flam-

mable liquids should be avoided.

3.Are hazardous materials (i.e. matches) out of the reach of chil-

dren?

4.Are furnaces and wood burning appliances properly installed,

clean, and in good working order? If in doubt, have a profes-

sional evaluation.
