Installation
With 18 alarms interconnected, it is still possible to
interconnect up to a total of 6 remote signaling devices
and/or relay modules.
• The maximum wire run distance between the first and
last unit in an interconnected system is 1000' (305 m).
• Make certain alarms are wired to a continuous, (non-
switched) power line. NOTE: Use standard UL Listed
household wire (18 gauge or larger as required by local
codes) available at all electrical supply stores and most
hardware stores.
Wiring
Figure 1 illustrates interconnection wiring. Improper
connection will result in damage to the alarm, failure to
operate, or a shock hazard.
