Wireless Smoke Detector
Installation Instructions
1 Overview
The wireless smoke detector features an onboard sounder, a smoke
sensor, an LED indicator and local test capability to allow the user total
visibility of its functionality. It is self-monitoring, alerting the user when
sensor maintenance is needed or batteries are low, and automatically
supervising the radio link.
The EN1244 and EN1244-60 wireless smoke detector have been designed
for operation in the United States; the EN1244A wireless smoke detector
has been designed for operation in Australia; and the EN1244Z wireless
smoke detector has been designed for operation in New Zealand.
The EN1244 wireless smoke detector is intended for open area protection
and for connection to a compatible power supply or control unit for
operation as part of a household fire alarm system (UL985).
Note: For UL 2560 installations, refer to the EN6080 Area Control
