    SmartLINK Troubleshooting...
  • Page 35 It is important that all Alarms in your system communicate with each other. The number of walls, ceilings and metal objects in the signal path will reduce the strength of the SmartLINK signals between the Alarms. Accordingly, one or more Smoke/Heat/CO Alarms may have difficulties in communicating to all the other Alarms in the system.
