Wireless Connection Setup Guide:
1. Complete installation and turn on the mains power supply.
2. Select the wireless base with a smoke alarm as the MASTER
unit. Place the MASTER label near the RF pairing button. Treat all
other units as BRANCH units.
3. To initiate the self-learn process on the MASTER wireless base,
press and hold the RF pairing button manually for 5 seconds. The
unit will enter the self-learn mode, indicated by the LED remaining
illuminated for 2.5 minutes.
NOTE: To exit self-learn pairing mode, press the RF pairing button
once. The Red LED will turn off.
4. While the LED of the MASTER unit is illuminated, pair the
BRANCH units by quickly pressing their RF pairing button two times.
The LED of the BRANCH unit will flash five times, indicating
successful interconnection.
If a BRANCH UNIT fails to flash its LED five times, it indicates that
the wireless connection has not been successful. In such cases,
please verify that the LED of the MASTER unit remains illuminated
and is still in self-pairing mode while pairing the BRANCH unit.
Ensure that only one unit is designated as the MASTER, while all
others are subordinate BRANCH units. If reactivating the master
self-pairing mode, previously paired units do not need to be paired
again.
5. Repeat step 4 on all other BRANCH units.
