Alarm Memory
The Alarm memory is an important feature where even if the house
is unoccupied during an alarm condition it warns the homeowner
that the device has previously detected Fire and been in alarm.
The device which has alarmed will flash the red led twice every 48
seconds for the next 24 hours.
In addition, the next test button event after the alarm condition will
give a “chirping sound pattern” and rapid flashing red led to indicate
that this device has previously alarmed. The action of pressing the
test button will also reset the alarm memory.
AudioLINK
AudioLINK is an added feature available in the EiA600i series only.
This feature allows an authorized person to download information
from the Alarm through the use of a mobile App. For more
information on using this feature, please refer to the relevant
section on www.ei-electronics.com.
Introduction
You can easily install these Alarms on each level of the
property, in hallways/corridors outside any sleeping area, in
each bedroom and in other rooms throughout the property to
give warning of fire.
Heat Alarms can be installed in kitchens, garages and other
areas where Smoke Alarms are unsuitable.
NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION REQUIRED
PROTECTION
Smoke Detection. Where required by applicable laws, codes,
or standards for the specified occupancy, approved single- and
multiple-station Smoke Alarms shall be installed as follows:
(1) In all sleeping rooms and guest rooms
(2) Outside of each separate dwelling unit sleeping area
within 21ft of any door to a sleeping room, the distance
measured along a path of travel
(3) On every level of a dwelling unit, including basements
(4) On every level of a residential board and care occupancy
(small facility), including basements and excluding crawl
spaces and unfinished attics.
(5) In the living area(s) of a guest suite
(6) In the living area(s) of a residential board and care
occupancy (small facility)
Are More Smoke Alarms Desirable? The required number
of Smoke Alarms might not provide reliable early warning
protection for those areas separated by a door from the areas
protected by the required Smoke Alarms. For this reason, it is
recommended that the occupant consider the use of additional
Smoke Alarms for those areas for increased protection. The
additional areas include the basement, bedrooms, dining
room, furnace room, utility room, and hallways not protected
by code mandated Smoke Alarms. The installation of Smoke
Alarms in bathrooms/shower rooms, kitchens, attics (finished
or unfinished), or garages is not normally recommended, as
these locations occasionally experience conditions that can
result in improper operation.
The equipment should be installed using wiring methods in
accordance with the National Fire Protection Association’s
Standard 72, Chapter 11. (National Fire Protection Association,
Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269).
IMPORTANT!
Specific requirements for Smoke Alarm installation vary from
state to state and from region to region. Check with your local
Fire Department for current requirements in your area.
