The battery is charged by tting the battery pack into the
charge cradle and connecting to a mains socket using the
supplied power adaptor (Fig. 1)
• Ensure the battery is fully charged before use.
• Do not charge the battery outside of the specied
operating temperature range (5-45°C).
• At low ambient temperatures (5-10°C), the battery
may not charge completely but may continue to indi-
cate that charging is in progress.
• If the battery pack detects that the temperature is
outside of the operational temperature range for
charging, a fault will be indicated by a red ashing LED.
• In the event of a battery charging fault, remove the
battery from the charging cradle, ensure the battery
is within the operational temperature range and retry
charging the battery.
• Open the back cover
• Remove protective packaging of generator. Do not
touch exposed electrical contacts.
• Insert generator rmly into recess, engaging clips 1 and
2 (see Fig.2)
• Once the generator is inserted, do not remove it until
indicated that a replacement is necessary.
• When replacing a generator, any dust or debris within
the Testire XTR2 housing can be removed using an air
duster. Any condensation can be removed by wiping
with a lint-free cloth.
• Empty generators may be returned to the manufacturer
via the reseller for environmentally friendly disposal
to comply with WEEE (Waste Electrical & Electronic
Equipment) Regulations.

Testire XTR2 is designed for use with the Solo range of access
poles (purchased separately). The product is not compatible
with alternative poles.
Take the Solo access pole and press down the locking button on
Testire XTR2. Align it with the location hole and push the
Testire XTR2 handle further into the pole until the button
springs up through the hole. Twist to lock (Fig. 5)

No more than three Solo 101 extension poles
should be used at the same time.
CAUTION
When working at height it is recommended that a
competent person carries out a suitable risk
assessment. This will identify any risk to the user
and/or the environment and hence any need for
Personal Protective Equipment.
WARNING
NOTE:
A Solo 101 extension pole can extend the Solo 100 and 108
telescopic poles, or may be used separately.
For further information on the correct use of poles, see
“instructions for Solo Poles” document in the support section
of detectortesters.com
https://www.detectortesters.com/manuals/
NOTE:
If Testire XTR2 has been left unused for a period of time
then a manual purge may be required.
With the generator, cartridge and battery securely tted and
the back cover closed, the unit can now be powered on. Power
the unit on by holding down the power button for 3 seconds.
NOTE:
After replacing a generator and powering on, a ‘purge cycle’ will
run. During this the sound of the pump operating may be heard.
This will last for approximately a few seconds after which, the
unit will be ready for use. If no smoke is observed during a test
a manual purge may be required (see section 5.8 for more detail
on how to perform a manual purge).
The unit is functioning correctly if the status indicator LED’s
are solid blue and a Smoke test is selected on the LCD display
(Fig. 6). If the status indicator LED’s are not solid blue refer to
the LED Reference Chart in section 4.3.

Testire XTR2 indicates events as follows:
Correct head angle adjustment is important to make sure that
the detector to be tested is correctly positioned within the
tester cup and that the user is in a safe and appropriate position
to carry out the test.
The detector should touch the base of the Testire XTR2
clear standoff and should be level with the base of the
detector (Fig. 7)
Adjust the head unit for the correct angle to access the
detector. Hold the body of Testire XTR2 and gently move
the cup forwards or backwards to the desired position.

After you have completed the
preparation procedures your Testire
XTR2 will be ready for use.
When powered on, Testire XTR2 LCD
will be congured to perform a smoke
test by default. The smoke icon will
be visible on the LCD display and the
status LED’s will be solid blue (Fig. 8).
An infrared beam across the tester
cup controls the test.
The test will begin automatically
when the tester cup is placed over the
detector, breaking the infrared beam.
The status LED will ash blue to
indicate smoke is being generated
and the test started (Fig. 9).
When the detector is activated, the
optical LED reader inside the tester
cup will sense the detector activation
LED and automatically end the test.
The status LED’s will ash triple
green to indicate the test has been
successful and clearing mode will
begin automatically (see section 5.5).
To end clearing, remove Testire XTR2
by gently lowering it (Fig. 10).

TIP:
Rotating Testire around the
detector can speed up a test on
detectors with offset thermistors
Avoid placing hands near the
duct outlet during heat testing or
within 5 minutes of conducting
heat testing. Hot air is emitted
from the duct and the top of the
duct will get hot to the touch.
CAUTION

Using Testire XTR2 to carry out
combined testing means that a
number of operations (Smoke, Heat
and Clearing) can be pre-programmed
into the unit before it is raised up to
the detector. This saves time, reduces
handling and enables the testing of
certain multi-sensor detectors.
Select the Combined function using
the navigation arrows on the LCD
display. Once selected the status LED’s
will alternate between solid blue
and solid red (Fig. 14).
The test will begin automatically
when the tester cup is placed over the
detector, breaking the infrared beam.
When performing a combined test,
the status LED will ash blue and red
alternately to indicate both smoke
and heat are being generated
simultaneously (Fig. 15).
When the detector is activated, the
optical LED reader inside the tester
cup will sense the detector activation
LED and automatically end the test.
The status LED’s will ash triple

the detector. This saves time, reduces
handling and enables the testing of
certain multi-sensor detectors.
Select the Sequential function using
the navigation arrows on the LCD

status LED’s will turn solid red to
identify the rst test in the sequence
as heat. Sequential tests follow the
following predened order:
The test will begin automatically
when the tester cup is placed over the
detector, breaking the infrared beam.
When the detector is activated, the
optical LED reader inside the tester
cup will sense the detector activation
LED and the next test mode will begin

Once the Sequential test is complete,
the status LED’s will ash triple

Clearing

Testire XTR2
Once activated any lingering smoke can be cleared from the
detector using the ‘Clearing mode’. Air is blown around the
detector – clearing any lingering smoke via the vent in the cup.
To perform clearing after a smoke, combined or sequential test,
continue to hold Testire XTR2 over the detector. If the test
was successful, clearing will begin automatically and the status
LED’s will ash white (Fig. 20).
On occasions, it may be necessary to test detectors that do not
easily t into the Testire XTR2 tester cup or are obstructed
in some way. To allow testing of such detectors or aspirating
smoke detection systems, Testire XTR2 has the facility to
delay the start of a test.
To use this function, use the navigation arrows on the LCD
menu until Delayed Start is displayed and tap the icon to begin
the timer (Fig. 21).
In low light levels, an LED torch will automatically illuminate
from inside the cup. This makes for easy alignment and testing
of detectors in dark environments.
Upon alignment and the starting of the test the LED torch
will switch off to allow a clear view of the status LED’s and to
enable the optical LED reader inside the tester cup.
To perform clearing on its own, download the Detectortesters
Connect app start a new Test Job:
1. Open the Detectortesters Connect app on your mobile
device
2. Pair your Testire XTR2 device and start a new test job
3. Select your test location and tap “next step”
