Figure 3. Mount Detector Across Ceiling Panel Support
DO NOT attach the detector to removable ceiling panels. Attach
the detector across panel support as shown in Figure 3.
Airborne dust particles can enter the detector. Honeywell
recommends the removal of detectors before beginning construction
or any other dust-producing activity. Carbon monoxide detectors are
not to be used with detector guards unless the combination has been
evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.

TAMPER PROTECTION
This detector has a built-in tamper switch that will cause a CHECK
signal to be displayed at the console of the alarm system if it is
removed from its mounting base while the system is disarmed (alarm
occurs if system is armed). The 5800CO detector includes a tamper-
resistant feature that prevents removal from the mounting base
without the use of a tool. To engage the tamper-resistant feature, cut
the small plastic tab located on the mounting base (Figure 2), and
then install the detector. To remove the detector from the base once
it has been made tamper resistant, use a small screwdriver to
depress the square tamper release tab, located on the skirt of the
mounting base, and turn the detector counterclockwise.
FUNCTIONALLY TESTING THE DETECTOR
NOTE: The 5800CO detector must be tested after installation. The
5800CO's features include a Functional Gas Test mode which can be
used to verify the detector's ability to sense carbon monoxide gas. To
perform the functional gas test, follow these steps:
1.
With a small screwdriver, depress and hold the recessed
Test/Hush switch for approximately 2 secs. The detector will
temporarily sound in alarm and the red LED will illuminate.
2.
Within a few secs, the green LED will start to blink rapidly,
indicating the detector is in functional test mode. At this time,
the unit is waiting for the user to dispense the test CO sample.
3.
Spray a very small amount of Solo
3 gas entry ports located at the center of the detector's front face
(seen at left in Figure 5). Solo
security equipment vendors.
4.
Upon successful gas entry and if functioning properly, the
detector will begin sounding in a temporal 4 pattern and the red
LED will blink. An alarm signal is sent to the panel, providing
verification of the alarm signal.
5.
The alarm condition at the detector will stop after 20 - 60 secs,
or when the CO gas has cleared.
6.
If gas entry is unsuccessful, the test will automatically end after
27 secs.

TESTING SIGNAL STRENGTH
NOTE: Remove battery tab before installation.
This test should be performed before installation to determine a
strong communication path with the control panel. The test should
be repeated after installation is complete. Also, the owner/user
should test the unit's signal strength at least weekly.
1.
Activate the wireless system's GO/NO GO TEST mode from the
keypad (refer to the control panel's instruction manual).
2.
Depress and hold the detector's TEST/HUSH button. If the
detector has not previously sensed a low battery condition and is
operating within proper sensitivity limits, it should immediately
transmit an alarm signal to the control panel. The built-in horn
will start to sound about 2.5 secs after pressing the button.
3.
The wireless system's keypad should emit at least 3 tones when
the alarm transmission is received and will display the
transmitting detector's zone number.
4.
When the control panel has received the test signal, release the
TEST/HUSH button. The horn will stop and a few seconds later
the detector's zone number will clear from the console display.
5.
If the console does not respond as described above:
a.
Make sure the battery is installed with the correct polarity.
b.
Make the battery is fresh.
If this is an initial installation, try moving the detector to
another location that provides proper reception. Also be sure
that the detector has been "enrolled" by the control panel (see
PROGRAMMING). Then, repeat the signal strength test.
6.
Turn off the system's TEST mode from the keypad (security code
+ OFF).
TESTING PROGRAMMED LOOPS
This test should be performed before installation to ensure that the
detector has been programmed and is operational in the system.
1.
Activate the system's TRANSMITTER ID SNIFFER mode from
the keypad (see the control panel's instruction manual). All
programmed wireless zones will be displayed, one by one, on the
system keypad. Make sure the detector zone is displayed in the
sequence. (If not, recheck that the detector zone has been
properly programmed.)
2.
With the detector mounted to the mounting base, press the
detector's TEST/HUSH button. The zone associated with the
detector should disappear from the keypad on the next display
cycle. This means that the system has received a transmission
from the detector zone you have programmed.
3.
When testing is complete, enter the Installer code + the OFF
key to exit TEST mode.
When all system testing has been completed, notify the central
monitoring station that the system is back on line.
