1. Install Sensors:

a. Verify that the sensor type matches the type written on the label in the base.
b. Set the address on the sensor per job drawings.

Note: Some panels support extended addressing. In order to set
the sensor above address 99 on compatible systems, carefully
remove the stop on the upper rotary switch with thumb or finger
as shown in Figure 2.

c. Place the sensor into the sensor base.
d. Turn the sensor clockwise until it drops into place.
e. Continue turning the sensor clockwise to lock it in place.

2. Tamper Resistance
The sensor base includes a tamper proof feature which when activated prevents
removal of the sensor without the use of a tool. See the installation instruction
manual for the sensor base for details in using this feature.

3. After all sensors have been installed, apply power to the control unit.

4. Test the sensor by placing a magnet against the sensor plastic, as shown in Figure 3. The alarm level should be rec-

ognized at the panel and the LED controlled by communication command from the panel.

5. The reset of the sensor LED is controlled by communication command from the panel.

TESTING SENSITIVITY

Sensors must be tested after installation and periodic maintenance. The sensitivity may be tested in the following ways.

A. Test Magnet (p/n M02-04-01 or M02-09-00)

1. Place the optional test magnet against the cover in the magnet test area, as shown in Figure 3, to activate the test

feature.

2. The LEDs should latch on within 10 seconds, indicating alarm and annunciating the panel.
3. Reset the detector at the system control panel.

B. Direct Heat Method (Hair dryer of 1000 – 1500 watts)

1. From the side of the detector, direct the heat toward the sensor. Hold the heat source about 6 inches (15 cm) away

to prevent damage to the cover during testing.

2. The LEDs on the detector should light when the temperature at the detector reaches the alarm setpoint. If the LEDs

fail to light, check the power to the detector and the wiring in the detector base.

3. Reset the detector at the system control panel.

Detectors that fail these tests should be returned for repair.
