Electro Detectors Zerio Plus EDA-D6000 Installation Instructions

EDA-D6000 Radio Combined Heat Detector and Sounder
The EDA-D6000 Radio Combined Heat Detector and Sounder is used as part of the Zerio Plus Radio Fire Alarm
System. It cannot be used with other ranges of Electro-Detectors products.
The device is IP rated to IP21C and should only be used indoors.

To fix the base to the ceiling

The D6000 should be fitted in an appropriate position as detailed in BS5839 Part 1. The base plate should be separated
from the device by rotating the detector anti-clockwise and pulling apart. The base should be screwed to a flat surface
using 2 x No 8 (4mm) screws of appropriate length for the material that the device is being mounted on. If the surface is
not flat, the base plate may warp when screwed too tightly to the surface, which could cause tamper fault conditions. It
is recommended that the base plate not be secured too tightly or a rigid mounting plate be fixed to the wall first. The
devices should not be fitted covering holes in ceilings where water could possibly drip through. Any hole should be
made good prior to installing the device. The device should be fitted away from any metal objects or electrical items to
avoid radio interference and a radio survey for the position should have been carried out prior to installation.

Adding the device to the system

Before the D6000 will operate on a system, it must be programmed via the control panel. To program the unit the panel
must be set in the appropriate mode to add a device to the system. If a device is being added or replaced on the system
then the appropriate menu option should be selected on the control panel. Please refer to the panel manual for further
information. Before adding/replacing the device on the system you will need to know what unit number/address the unit
is to be programmed to. The zone number, sensitivity, volume, area and text location information should also be to
hand but this can be added/changed later.

Zone Number

The zone number is a logical way of grouping devices and is used as a way of indicating where the alarm is in a
building. Careful attention to BS5839 should be exercised when allocating devices to zones and would usually be
defined when the system is designed. The number of zones available depends on the type of control panel that is being
installed. There are 8, 20 and 100 zone models available.
