EDA-D5000 Radio Heat Detector Installation Instructions
The EDA-D5000 Radio Heat Detector is used as part of the Zerio Plus Radio Fire Alarm System. It cannot be used with
other ranges of Electro-Detectors products.

To fix the unit to the ceiling

The heat detector should be fitted in an appropriate position as detailed in BS5839 Part 1. The base plate should be
separated from the unit by rotating the detector anti-clockwise and pulling apart. The base should be screwed to a flat
surface using 2 x No 6 screws of appropriate length for the material that the unit is being mounted on. It is
recommended that the base should be used as a template for the screw holes. If the surface is not flat, the unit may
buckle and cause tamper conditions, when screwed tightly to the surface. It is recommended that the units not be
secured too tightly or a rigid mounting plate be fixed to the wall first. The units should not be fitted covering holes in
ceilings where water could possible drip through. Any hole should be made good prior to installing the detector. The
unit 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 unit 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 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.

  • Page 2 Should the unit detect enough heat, it will indicate the alarm condition by illuminating the LED red. The internal buzzer on the detector will also beep. An alarm transmission will be made to the control panel and the alarm will be indicated on the panel. EDA-D5000 Installation Manual Page 2 of 3 Ref: EDA_D5000_Install_V105.doc...
  • Page 3 To change the battery in the detector:- replacement part: 1 x EDA-Q690 The battery should last approximately five years in the heat detector. Always use batteries supplied by Electro Detectors otherwise this will invalidate the certification. Many similar battery technologies are available but only the ones that meet certain properties can be used with these units.
