Installation Considerations
Proper location of detection devices is one of the most
critical factors in a fire alarm system.
Here are some general considerations:
Do not install smoke detectors in "dead air" spaces
or close to ventilating or air-conditioning outlets
because smoke might be circulated away from the
detector. Locations near air inlets are favored.
Avoid areas subject to normal smoke
concentrations such as kitchens, garages, or near
fireplaces.
Do not install smoke detectors where normal area
temperatures are above 38 °C (100 °F) or below 0
°C (32 °F).
Avoid areas of high humidity and dust
concentrations.
Install ceiling-mounted detectors so the edge is no
closer than 10 cm (4 inches) from any wall.
Place the top edge of wall mounted detectors from
10 to 30 cm (4 to 12 inches) from the ceiling.

Emergency Keypad Alarms/
Silencing Alarms
The Emergency Alarm Keys [
generate Fire, Special Emergency, and Panic Alarms if
programmed by the installer. Ask your installing
company to explain the function of these keys. To use
an Emergency Key, you must press the button for
two seconds to generate an alarm. Use the
Disarming Command Sequence to cancel or silence
these alarms.
If the Emergency Alarm Keys are to be used, label the
keys to signify their functions.
Label the left-most key as the Fire key. This is the only
key that can be designated as the Fire key.
Label the middle key as the Special Emergency key.
Label the right-most key as the Panic key.
On RF keyfobs, the Panic signal is sent to your security
system when two keys are held down simultaneously
for at least three seconds.
