Installing the Siren Detector
1. On the Handset (or Console), Press MENU
2. Scroll to Security Setup, press SELECT and enter the Master Code
3. Scroll to Sensors, press SELECT
4. Scroll to <Add New>, press SELECT
5. Scroll to Siren Detector, press SELECT
6. Following the instructions displayed on the Handset or Console
wait 5 seconds, then press the button on the Siren Detector
Note: Once the Siren Detector is "found," the LifeShield system will require you to perform an audio test to determine if the siren
from the target hazard detector can be detected by the Siren Detector.
7. Following the instructions displayed on the Handset or Console press the "test" button on the hazard detector until
Handset or Console displays "Siren Detector Added," which indicates that the test has passed. If the test does not pass
within 10 to 12 seconds of the siren sounding, the hazard detector may not meet the requirements described earlier and may
need to be replaced. If the test fails, the LifeShield system will not permit the Siren Detector to be added.
Once the Siren Detector has been added to the LifeShield system:
8. Use the Edit feature to rename the device (optional). Press DELETE to erase text and use the keypad to type in a new name.
Once you are satisfied with the entered name, press OK
9. Scroll down to select the type of hazard detector to which this Siren Detector will be associated (SMOKE/FIRE, CARBON
MONOXIDE or BOTH) and press SELECT. Important: the selection you make during this configuration step will determine the
type of message that is sent to the Alarm Monitoring Center as described earlier in this document.
10. Press OK to return to the Main Menu
Testing your Siren Detector
Immediately replace the battery on any Siren Detector when you are notified that the battery condition is low. Replace the battery
on your hazard detectors at least once per year or whenever you see and/or hear a low battery indication. Hazard detectors and/or
the Siren Detector may not operate properly when the battery condition is low.
