Argus Security L-HT-SG User manual

OVERVIEW
This detector model samples the environmental temperature in the protected area. An alarm condition is raised when the level of temperature
or the thermal variation rate exceeds the alarm threshold.
COMPATIBILITY
This detector is compatible only with wireless systems based on the Sagittarius protocol.
For more specific information concerning compatibility refer to your fire security system supplier.
INSTALLATION - IMPORTANT NOTES
For detector spacing, placement and special applications refer to your specific national standards.
Mount the detector as far as possible from metal objects, metal doors, metal window openings, etc. as well as cable conductors, cables
(especially from computers), otherwise the operating distance may greatly drop. The detector must NOT be installed near electronic devices
and computer equipment that can interfere with its wireless link quality.
This detector must be installed according precisely to the procedures
described in this manual.
Test this detector after installation.
BEFORE INSTALLING THE DETECTOR
1) Extract the batteries cover from the back of the detector.
2) Power-up the detector removing the isolating tab in the battery
housing. LED indicators signal “Power up”.
3) Link the detector to the Sagittarius wireless system (LINKING).
4) Check the WIRELESS LINK QUALITY.
5) SELECT A GOOD LOCATION FOR THE DETECTOR.
6) Tag device’s loop and address data (IDENTIFICATION).
7) Fix the detector supporting base to the wall (BASE INSTALLATION).

LINKING
The system is waiting to achieve a wireless child device (for further information
refer to the translator’s or the Wirelex configuration software’s literature):
1) Move the link switch’s cursor from ON to the opposite side of its run (we will
call it BLANK, since it carries no indication). LED indicators signal “Linking to the
system” (picture 2).
Linking is successful when:
a) the translator indicates so (check translator’s literature)
OR
b) the Wirelex software indicates so (check the Wirelex’s literature).
If linking is unsuccessful:
2) Check if evident mistakes were made.
3) Perform the LINKING RECOVERY.
LINKING RECOVERY
1) Take out both batteries from their holders
2) Move alternatively the link switch to ON / BLANK five times (picture 2)
3) Move the link switch to ON
4) Reinsert both batteries into their holders, oriented as per polarity marks
5) Perform the LINKING procedure
DETECTOR SENSITIVITY SETTINGS
During installation using the Wirelex software it’s possible to set the heat class of the detector (see table 4).
Otherwise if the installation is performed manually through the translator keyboard, default setting will be applied.
WIRELESS LINK QUALITY
It is possible to check wireless link quality between the detector and its linked-to translator or expander in this way:
1) Move the link switch to the ON position.
2) LED indicators will start blinking according to the following table:
3) NOTE: Ensure the link switch is returned to the "BLANK" (operational) position on completion of testing.
SELECT A GOOD LOCATION FOR THE DETECTOR
Choose for the detector a placement position that:
- compliances with your specific standards
- is reached by a strong wireless signal from its linked-to
translator or expander module
- is not interfered by environmental factors.
IDENTIFICATION
For identification purposes, analogue loop number and device’s
address can be recorded on the plastic tag supplied with the
base (picture 3).
Extract the plastic tag from the bottom of the base, write or label
identification data on it and, finally, insert it in the side slot of the
base.

AB
During the linking phase, the
detector must be positioned
close to the aerial (within a few
centimeters) of the translator or
expander to which it is being linked.

BASE INSTALLATION
Fix the base to the wall with the provided screws (picture 4).
DETECTOR PLACEMENT
1) Install the batteries cover.
2) Position the detector centrally on the base
ensuring it is level.
3) Rotate clockwise applying gentle pressure.
The detector will drop into its keyed location.
4) Continue to rotate clockwise a few degrees until the detector has fully engaged in the
base.
5) When the detector is firmly engaged, check the alignment of the raised reference marks
on the detector and on the base (picture 5).
DETECTOR LOCKING
To lock the detector to the base, screw in the provided security screw; screw entry is located on the
side of the detector’s base (picture 6).
TAMPER DETECTION
When the detector is detached from the base a tamper message event is sent to the control panel.
TESTING
Test this detector after installation.
After each test reset the fire security system from the control panel, as per your control panel in-
structions.
TEST 1 - MAGNET TEST
1) Hold a suitable magnet in correspondence of the indicated area (picture 7).
2) Wait a few seconds.
3) If it works LED indicator will signal “Alarm”.
TEST 2 - HEAT TEST
Use only suitable heat test devices from approved manufacturers.
1) By following its specific instructions, apply the heat test device to the detector.
2) Wait a few seconds.
3) If it works LED indicator will signal “Alarm”.

Dust covers DO NOT provide
complete protection against
contamination: detectors
should be removed before construc-
tion, major re-decoration or other dust
producing work is started.
Dust covers MUST be removed before
the system can be made operational.

MAINTENANCE - CLEANING
1) Remove the detector from its base.
2) Thermistor area: use a small, soft bristle brush to
dislodge any obvious contaminants such as insects,
spider webs, hairs, etc.
3) Thermistor area: use a small vacuum tube or dry,
clean, compressed air to suck up or blow any remaining
small particles away.
4) Wipe the exterior housing of the detector with a clean,
damp, lint-free cloth to remove any surface film that can
later attract airborne contaminants.
5) Install the detector onto its base again.
6) Test the detector.
MAINTENANCE - BATTERY REPLACEMENT
When a low battery condition is indicated, both
batteries must be changed altogether.
During this procedure the linking switch must NOT be touched at all !
1) Detach the detector from its base.
2) Extract the batteries cover.
3) Extract the batteries.
4) Insert the new batteries into their holders, oriented as per polarity marks.
5) Reinstall the batteries cover.
6) Reinstall the detector onto its base..
7) Test the detector.

WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS
Our devices use high quality electronic components and plastic materials that are highly resistant to environmental
deterioration. However, after 10 years of continuous operation, it is advisable to replace the devices in order to
minimize the risk of reduced performance caused by external factors. Ensure that this device is only used with
compatible control panels. Detection systems must be checked, serviced and maintained on a regular basis to
confirm correct operation. Smoke detectors may respond differently to various kinds of smoke particles, thus
application advice should be sought for special risks. Detectors cannot respond correctly if barriers exist between
them and the fire location and may be affected by special environmental conditions. Refer to and follow national
codes of practice and other internationally recognized fire engineering standards. Appropriate risk assessment
should be carried out initially to determine correct design criteria and updated periodically.
WARRANTY
All devices are supplied with the benefit of a limited 3 year warranty relating to faulty materials or manufacturing
defects, effective from the production date indicated on each product. This warranty is invalidated by mechanical or
electrical damage caused in the field by incorrect handling or usage. Product must be returned via your authorized
supplier for repair or replacement together with full information on any problem identified. Full details on our war-
ranty and product’s returns policy can be obtained upon request.
