Deaf Smoke Alarm Kit
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
What is the Deaf Smoke Alarm Kit used for?
The deaf smoke alarm kit is designed for installation in homes occupied by deaf or hard of hearing people.
How does the Deaf Smoke Alarm Kit work?
If fire is detected the smoke alarm will sound a loud audible alert, the wall mounted control unit will flash
a strong white strobe light (excellent for day and night time alerting) and the under pillow pad will vibrate
to awake the heaviest sleeper. A call will also be made to the Control Centre or Local Manager.
Typical Tools Required
Be careful when using step ladders – always face the direction you are working.
Always make sure the correct drill bits and screwdrivers are used.
Installation
Refer to the Ei Instruction Leaflet provided in the box with the equipment for full installation details.
See below for a brief summary of the installation;
1. Fix the main control unit (with strobe light) to the wall alongside the bed.
2. Plug the vibrating pad into the VIBRATION PAD socket on the main control unit and place the pad under the pillow.
3. Fix the smoke detector to the ceiling and run the cable back to the main control unit.
Read the manufacturers instructions when choosing a location for
the smoke detector as this is a major factor in how well it will operate.
4. Plug the Tynetec Interface box into the AUX OUTPUT socket on the main control unit.
5. Plug‐in and switch on the mains supply ‐ the MAINS light on the main control unit should illuminate GREEN.
If the strobe light is flashing check the smoke detector and vibration pad connections.
The deaf smoke alarm kit must now be registered onto the Tynetec equipment.
