HUSH/TEST BUTTON
Operation
Approximately every 7 to 8 seconds the unit tests for a smoke or heat alarm condition. During
this sequence the unit also performs self diagnostics, and checks for tampers and faults. During
normal operation the green LED flashes every 60 seconds and the sounder does not sound.
Smoke Alarm
The smoke detector alarms when the signal level exceeds the "alarm" threshold and
automatically restores when the signal level falls below the alarm "restore" threshold. During an
the
alarm the red LED flashes once per second and the sounder sounds the evacuation temporal
pattern.
Alarm Silencing
This smoke alarm is provided with an automatically resettable alarm silencing feature. When the
sensor is in alarm, press the Test/Silence/Reset button to silence the local annunciation of the
alarm and transmit an alarm restore event to the control panel. The red LED flashes once per
second for up to 7 minutes, to indicate the alarm has been silenced.
After an alarm the red LED will flash once every 4 seconds to indicate an alarm in memory. The
alarm silence feature has a fixed time setting that desensitizes the smoke alarm for 7 minutes.
Alarm silencing does not disable the smoke alarm but rather reduces its smoke sensitivity.
Following the silenced period the smoke alarm restores automatically to its intended operation. If
smoke around the unit is dense enough to suggest a potentially dangerous situation, it remains
in alarm, or may return to the alarm state quickly.
NOTE: For UL/ULC installations use this device only in
conjunction with compatible DSC wireless
receivers: HS2128, HS2064, HS2032, HS2016
control units when connected to HSM2HOST9
wireless receiver, HS2LCDRF(P)9, HS2ICNRF(P)9
Keypads with integrated receiver, PG9920
repeater and Wireless Alarm Systems WS900-19,
and WS900-29. Transmissions occur at
approximately 915 MHz (912 MHz to 919 MHz).
