Introduction to Ei140RC
Smoke/Heat Alarms
The Ei140RC series is supplied with an Easi-Fit
base that allows very quick and simple installation
of the Smoke Alarm, combined with simple detector
head removal and replacement. The Easi-Fit base
automatically connects both mains power and battery
as the detector head slides on to the Easi-Fit base.
Up to 12 Smoke/Heat Alarms can be interconnected so
that when one senses fire all the units alarm.
Interconnection can be achieved by hardwire or through
a RadioLINK Base, the Ei168RC.
A green LED indicates the presence of mains power. A
red LED will flash rapidly in an alarm scenario.
All Alarms feature a combined test/hush button.
The "Test/Hush" button will either silence false alarms
or perform a unit self-test.
In "Test" mode the Alarm will perform a self-test and
sound the horn.
In "Hush" mode the Alarm will be silenced for a period
of approximately ten minutes to overcome false alarm
conditions. It will then automatically reset itself.
RF Interconnection
The Ei140RC series may be interconnected with any
other Ei Electronics RadioLINK or RadioLINK
through fiiting onto an Ei168RC RadioLINK Base.
This base will enable the Ei140RC series Alarms to
communicate RF messages to other Ei Electronics
products such as the Ei450 RadioLINK Alarm Controller
where you can remotely locate, test and hush your
Ei140RC Series Alarms using this wireless controller.
For detailed user instructions on using the RF
interconnection base Ei168RC with the Ei140RC series,
