Page 4: Introduction
Introduction... - Page 5 EIB3000 series, Easi-fit mains powered Alarms. The primary function of the EIB3000MRF is to wirelessly interconnect all Brooks Alarms in a system by means of an RF signal i.e. when one Alarm senses a fire event, the EIB3000MRF module fitted to that Alarm will transmit an RF signal that will activate the sounders in all other RF Alarms in the system.

Installation and House Coding... - Page 7 N.B Disconnect Mains Before Alarm Head Removal After disconnecting the mains power supply, it is now safe to remove the Alarm from its base. Using a screwdriver, insert into the removal slot on the side of the Alarm. Push the lower half of the Alarm away from the screwdriver, in the direction of the arrow on the cover (see Figure 1 below).
- Page 8 Fitting the EIB3000MRF Module To fit the EIB3000MRF Module, first hold the flexible antenna and guide it into its designated hole in the rear of the unit until about 2/3 of its length is inserted (Fig. 2a). Then, hold the module housing (Fig.

- Page 11 You can exit this mode by pressing the House Code button on one of the RF Alarms. Keep the button pressed until the blue light comes on solid and then release. The Alarm will now send a signal to all the other RF devices in the system to exit House Code. Alternatively, the RF Alarms will automatically exit the House Code mode after 30 minutes.

Additional Features... - Page 19 The EIB3000MRF SmartLINK Module allows for the extraction of certain information from an EIB3000 Series Alarm, using a Brooks download device. Once the system has been set up, information can be accessed from within or outside a property (within RF range) if access is an issue.
- Page 20 3. Monitoring (Buddy System) The EIB3000MRF SmartLINK Module facilitates a simple monitoring or buddy system between the Alarms. The system must first be successfully house coded. Then to enable Monitoring, hold the House Code Button of one Alarm only until the green LED lights solid (typically takes about 12 seconds) and then release.

Testing the System... - Page 29 Check that the green light is on continuously to indicate that mains power is present. Frequent testing of the system is a requirement to ensure its continued and safe operation. Guidelines and best practices for testing are as follows: 1. After the system is installed. 2.
- Page 30 The local Alarm will stop sounding but you will hear the other Alarms still sounding in the distance. Switching off Mains for long periods If the premises are regularly being left without mains power for long periods the Alarms should be removed from their mounting plates and the EIB3000MRF modules (if fitted) should be removed to prevent the batteries becoming fully depleted.

Interconnected CO Alarms and Smoke Alarms... - Page 32 Identifying source of Alarm Brooks Carbon Monoxide Alarms, Smoke Alarms, Heat Alarms or Dual Sensor Alarms can be interconnected via RadioLINK, RadioLINK+ or SmartLINK so that one Alarm sensing danger will cause all the other units to sound, enabling the alarm to be heard throughout the residence.

Page 33: Smartlink Troubleshooting
SmartLINK Troubleshooting... - Page 34 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 Multi/Smoke/Heat/CO Alarms may have difficulties in communicating to all the other Alarms in the system.

Page 39: Limitations Of Radio Communications
Limitations of Radio Communications... - Page 40 Brooks radio communication systems are very reliable and are tested to high standards. However, due to their low transmitting power and limited range (required by regulatory bodies) there are some limitations to be considered: (i) Receivers may be blocked by radio signals occurring on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of the House Coding.
