Tamper alarm warning
If any device tamper switches are disturbed a
tamper alarm will be activated with the siren
sounding and the strobe flashing. The alarm can be
silenced as described above. If there is a persistent
siren tamper fault then a series of 5 pips and flashes
will be given when the system is armed, then the
siren should be checked for any mounting problems
and if the siren lid is secure.
Previous alarm warning
Should there be an alarm that was triggered and
expired (while the user was away), the siren will
sound and flash for 3 seconds after disarming (user
returning home).
* Warning: should this happen the intruder could still
be in the premises.
Using the help button
Activate: press and hold panic button for 2 seconds,
The will light briefly and the siren will be activated.
Silence: press and hold panic button for 10
seconds, the LED will light briefly and the siren will
be silenced.
* Please note that silencing the alarm with the help
button does not disarm the system. If the alarm is
armed prior to activation, the system will re-arm
after being silenced with the help button.
Using the smoke detector
The smoke detector will indicate a fire by sounding
its built-in siren, lighting the LED and activating the
external siren and strobe.
Smoke detection
When smoke is detected the device will activate for
a minimum of 10 seconds with a two tone alarm and
flashing LED for a local fire alarm. The detector will
also activate the external siren and strobe.
• Pressing the test button when in an alarm
condition will silence the alarm for 10 minutes, it
will automatically resume smoke detection again
after this period.
• If the smoke density is still over the alarm
threshold, then the smoke detector will remain in
an alarm condition and it will repeat the local fire
alarm and activate the external siren and strobe
again.
Testing
Smoke detector testing should be done on a regular
monthly basis. Pressing the test button will make
the LED flash, the audible sounder chime and will
send a radio test signal to the siren when the button
is released. If nothing happens after pressing the
test button then change the batteries.
Recalibration
The smoke detector might need recalibrating after
time to ensure it is working at its optimum. This is
done by pressing and holding in the test button until
the LED flashes and it beeps after 10 seconds. The
detector will then start its self-calibration routine.
