Smoke Detector (SD-16UL) z General Information Before installation of the Smoke Detector, please read through this instruction manual thoroughly to understand the Smoke Detector functions, responses and the guidelines to installing the Smoke Detector. Please leave this manual with the user of the Smoke Detector. z General Description The SD-16 Smoke Detector is a wirelessly operated photo-electronic smoke detector designed to operate with the VST-2700 series, the M Series and the HPGW Series Climax wireless Control Panels. The Smoke Detector’s alarm situations, battery condition, operating conditions, supervisory data and general fault information are sent to the Control Panel wirelessly. The Smoke Detector calibrates for the air contents after warming up to determine a standard condition for the environment. It can be manually instructed to calibrate for air content. It is also pre-programmed to automatically calibrate once a month. When the Smoke Detector is triggered, a Smoke Alarm Signal is transmitted to the Wireless Control Panel. The built-in buzzer will start a local alarm siren of 85dB (in compliance with the UL Standard 217) and the Red LED will flash quickly for 10 seconds as a local warning. The Smoke Detector will continuously check the smoke concentration and turn the local warning on every 10 seconds if smoke concentration does not drop below the set value. The alarm signal is transmitted every 2 minutes until the smoke condition is cleared to reset the Smoke Detector. The local alarm siren will also continue to siren if the alarm signal is continuously being sent every 2 minutes. The test button of the Smoke Detector can be pressed to silence the alarm for 10 minutes. When the smoke condition is reset, a smoke alarm restore signal is sent to the Control Panel. The condition of the Smoke Detector will be sent to the Control Panel every 30 to 50 minutes as a supervisory signal. Mounting the Smoke Detector is simplified with the mounting bracket, where the mounting bracket is fixed to the surface using screws and dowels. The Smoke Detector is then fixed to the mounting bracket by hooking itself onto the mounting bracket. z Identifying the Parts 1. Red LED When the battery voltage is low, the Red LED will flash every 45 sec. While the Smoke Detector is transmitting a signal, the Red LED will turn on. After the battery is inserted and the Smoke Detector is in warming and calibration process, the Red LED will flash once every 2 seconds for 2-7 min. 2. Yellow LED When auto calibration (1 calibration per month) fails, the yellow LED will flash once every 5 seconds. 3. Test Button Pressing the Test Button to: z Transmit a radio signal for learning-in the Smoke Detector. z Transmit a radio signal for testing the radio communication range. z Test if the Smoke Detector is functioning normally. z Silence the Smoke Detector’s alarm 4. Buzzer When the Smoke Detector is triggered, the buzzer will start a local alarm of 85dB (in compliance with the UL Standard). One local alarm cycle is of the pattern: 0.5 second beep, 0.5 second silence, 0.5 second beep, 0.5 second silence, 0.5 second beep, 1.5 second silence. The cycle is repeated continuously.

5. Mounting Hole The Hook of the Mounting Bracket can hook into this Mounting Hole 6. Battery compartment To fit in a 3V CR123A Lithium Battery 7. Battery Compartment Cover 8. Mounting Bracket 9. Hook z Battery z A 3V CR123A Lithium Battery is used to supply power to the Smoke Detector. z When the Smoke Detector is low on battery, a low battery signal will be transmitted along with regular signal transmissions. If the battery voltage is low, the Red LED will flash with accompanying low-volume beep once every 45 seconds and inform the Control Panel regularly. Low Battery warning typically starts 1 month before complete exhaustion. <NOTE> ) When changing batteries, after removing the old batteries, press the Test button twice to fully discharge before inserting new batteries. z Installation Procedures Step 1. Insert the 3V CR123A Lithium Battery into the battery compartment orient the battery according to the battery compartment polarity indication. Step 2. After the battery is inserted, the Smoke Detector will sound 2 short beeps, Red LED will start to flash and initiates a 1-minute warm-up period. Step 3. During the 1-minute warming period, you can learn the Smoke Detector into the Panel. To Learn the Smoke Detector: a). Put the Control Panel into “Add Device” Mode (or “learning” mode) to learn the ID code of the Smoke Detector. (Please refer to operation manual of the panel.) b). Press the Test Button on the Smoke Detector, the Red LED will be on for 2 sec and the buzzer will sound a 2-tone beep to indicate it is functioning normally and is transmitting radio signals successfully. c). If the Control Panel successfully receives the signal, the panel will respond accordingly to indicate the completion of the learning-in process. Please refer to the manual of the panel. Step.4 When the 1-minute warming period is over, one short beep will sound to indicate that the Smoke Detector is starting calibration process. The process will be repeated every 40 seconds and notified by a short beep respectively. The completion of calibration process will be notified by a 2-tone beep and the Red LED will turn off. Normally it takes about 2-7 minutes to do the calibration (a maximum of 8 calibration attempts). However, after 7 minutes, if the Smoke Detector gives out continuous beeps instead, it indicates that the Smoke Detector has failed the calibration. Remove the battery to silence the beeps. Start from step 1 to try again after a pause of at least 30 seconds. <NOTE> ) During the calibration period, pressing the Test Button is prohibited. If you are not able to do the learning process (Step 3) during the 1-minute warming period, please do the learning process after the calibration period (Step 4). ) A strong transmission path between the Control Panel and the Smoke Detector is mandatory at the desired mounting location. Step 5. After the warming-up and calibration process, if the Smoke Detector is not learnt into the Control Panel, please refer to “To learn the Smoke Detector” section of Step 3 to learn the Smoke Detector into the system. Step 6. To check if there is a strong transmission path between the Control Panel and the Smoke Detector after learning in, put the Control Panel into “Walk Test” mode. Decide upon a suitable mounting location and press the Test button to confirm the transmission strength (Please refer to the Control Panel user manual on how to determine the transmission strength). Step 7. Using the bracket as a template, drill two holes in the exact location, the device is to be mounted and insert the dowels. Step 8. Screw the bracket on by screwing the screws into the dowels. The two hooks will need to be facing away from the surface.

Step 9. Locate the single line mark on the detector and line it up with one of the hook of the bracket. After both hooks fits in the two mounting holes on the detector, rotate the detector as shown in the picture on the right to lock it in onto the bracket. The installation is now complete. z Testing the Smoke Detector By pressing the Test button on the Smoke Detector, you can test if the Smoke Detector is functioning normally. z If the Smoke Detector functions normally, the Red LED will be on for 2 seconds followed by a 2-tone beep. z If the buzzer sounds 2-tone beeps 3 times, the “Optical Chamber” on the Smoke Detector is either dirty or out-of-order. z If the Red LED doesn’t light and no beep is sounded, it means the Smoke Detector is out-of-order. z Supervisory Signal z After installation, the Smoke Detector will automatically transmit Supervisory Signals every 30 to 50 minutes. z If the Control Panel has not received the signal from the Smoke Detector for a preset period of time, the Control Panel will indicate that the Smoke Detector is out-of-signal range or is out of order. z Detecting the Smoke z Once the concentration of the smoke exceeds the set threshold value, the Smoke Detector lights up its Red LED to indicate it is sending the Smoke Alarm signal to the Control Panel. After the transmission is completed, the Smoke Detector then activates its buzzer with the Red LED flashing rapidly for 10 seconds for local warning. z After this 10-second local warning period, the Smoke Detector proceeds to perform a follow-up smoke check. If the smoke concentration is found to be alarming still, the Smoke Detector will repeat another 10 seconds of local warning with buzzer and rapid flashing Red LED. z The Smoke Detector will repeatedly perform follow-up checks until the smoke concentration is lower than the set value, then the alarm will be stopped automatically or the alarm can be stopped manually by using the “Alarm Silence” function. z Once a Smoke Alarm Signal has been transmitted, the Smoke Detector will continue to send alarm signals every 2 minutes when the smoke concentration continues to be higher than allowed. This 2-minute cycle will be repeated until the smoke concentration is lower than the set value, then the alarm will be stopped automatically or the alarm can be stopped manually by using the “Alarm Silence” function. z Alarm Silence z Once the alarm is sounding, pressing the Test button will put the Smoke Detector into Alarm Silence mode for 10 min. and the alarm will be stopped. z During this 10-min. Alarm Silence period, the Red LED will flash once per second. z After this 10-min. period is over, the Smoke Detector will sound a 2-tone beep and then returns to normal operation mode. If the Smoke concentration is still over the set threshold value, the Smoke Detector will sound the alarm again. z Recalibration As the operation condition of the smoke detector may vary after being installed for some time, you may wish to recalibrate the smoke detector to take a new smoke detection threshold value and ensure optimal performance of the smoke detector. To do this, z Press 10 seconds on the TEST button and hold until the Red LED starts to flash. The Smoke Detector will sound 2 short beeps then follow the process described in calibration process to take the new reference value. z Every time the battery is removed and reinserted, the Smoke Detector will also take the new threshold value following the warming and calibration process. z Auto-Calibration z After first installation, Smoke Detector will perform auto-calibration after 4 hours. Afterwards it will perform auto-calibration once every month. During the auto-calibration process, Smoke Detector will not emit any sound. Each calibration sampling process takes 40 seconds. If the process fails, it will retry. The Smoke Detector will sample for a maximum of 5 times (including the initial auto-calibration). If the last retry fails, the Yellow LED will start to flash once every 5 seconds and the Smoke Detector will send calibration failure code to the control panel. The Yellow LED flashing can be cancelled by removing and reloading the battery, or by manually starting the calibration process. However if the manual calibration fails again, Smoke Detector will emit continuous beeps and the Red LED will also flash continuously. In this case you need to remove and reload the battery to stop the beeping sound (please wait for 30 seconds after removing batteries before reloading them.)

<NOTE> ) When Smoke Detector auto calibration fails, the smoke alarm function will still work normally using the threshold value taken from last successful calibration z Installation Note z It is recommended that the installation site be in the center area of the ceiling. z Do not locate the detector in the following locations: ¾ The Kitchen – Smoke from cooking might cause an unwanted alarm. ¾ Near a ventilating fan, florescent lamp or air-conditioning equipment – air drafts from them may affect the sensitivity of the detector. ¾ Near ceiling beams or over a cabinet – stagnant air in these areas may affect the sensitivity of the detector. ¾ In the peak of an “A” frame type of ceiling.
