Velociti™ Series
ASD-LS Intelligent Laser Smoke Sensor
INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE INSTALLING
This sensor must be installed in compliance with the control panel system
installation manual. The installation must meet the requirements of the Au-
thority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Sensors offer maximum performance when
installed in compliance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA);
see NFPA 72.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Model ASD-LS is a plug-in type smoke sensor that uses a laser based sens-
ing chamber. The sensor uses analog-addressable communications to trans-
mit smoke density and other information to the control panel. Rotary-decade
switches are provided for setting the sensor’s address. Two LEDs on the sensor
are controlled by the panel to indicate sensor status. An output is provided for
connection to an optional remote LED annunciator (P/N RA400Z).
This detector requires compatible addressable communications to function
properly. Connect this sensor to listed-compatible control panels only.
SPACING
Gamewell-FCI recommends spacing sensors in compliance with NFPA 72. In
low air flow applications with smooth ceilings, space sensors 30 feet apart. For
specific information regarding sensor spacing, placement, and special applica-
tions, refer to NFPA 72 or the Gamewell-FCI Guide For Proper Use of System
Smoke Detectors, available from Gamewell-FCI (P/N I56-407-XX).
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
All wiring must be installed in compliance with the National Electrical Code,
applicable local codes, and any special requirements of the Authority Having
Jurisdiction. Proper wire gauges should be used. The installation wires should
be color-coded to limit wiring mistakes and ease system troubleshooting. Im-
proper connections will prevent a system from responding properly in the
event of a fire.
Remove power from the communication line before installing sensors.
All wiring must conform to applicable local codes, ordinances, and regulations.
1. Wire the sensor base (supplied separately) per the wiring diagram, see
Figure 1.
2. Set the desired address on the sensor address switches, see Figure 2.
3. Install the sensor into the sensor base. Push the sensor into the base
while turning it clockwise to secure it in place.
4. After all sensors have been installed, apply power to the control unit and
activate the communication line.
5. Test the sensor(s) as described in the TESTING section of this manual.
CAUTION
Dust covers provide limited protection against airborne dust particles during
shipping. Dust covers must be removed before the sensors can sense smoke.
Remove sensors prior to heavy remodeling or construction.

TESTING
Before testing, notify the proper authorities that the system is undergoing
maintenance, and will temporarily be out of service. Disable the system to
prevent unwanted alarms.
All sensors must be tested after installation and periodically thereafter. Test-
ing methods must satisfy the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Sensors
offer maximum performance when tested and maintained in compliance with
NFPA 72.
The sensor can be tested in the following ways:
A. Functional: Magnet Test (P/N M02-04-01 or M02-09-00)
This sensor can be functionally tested with a test magnet. The test mag-
net electronically simulates smoke in the sensing chamber, testing the
sensor electronics and connections to the control panel.
1. Hold the test magnet in the magnet test area as shown in Figure 3.
2. The sensor should alarm the panel.
Two LEDs on the sensor are controlled by the panel to indicate sensor
status. Coded signals, transmitted from the panel, can cause the LEDs
to blink, latch on, or latch off. Refer to the control panel technical docu-
mentation for sensor LED status operation and expected delay to alarm.

3. Remove the screen/chamber cover assembly by pulling it straight out
(see Figure 4).
4. Clean the chamber by vacuuming or blowing out dust and particles.
5. Replace the sensing chamber cover, aligning the arrow on the top with
arrow on the printed circuit board.
6. To replace the screen, place it over the chamberassembly, turning it until
it snaps into place.
7. Replace the cover using the LEDs to align the cover and then gently
pushing it until it locks into place.
8. Reinstall the detector.
9. Test the detector as described in TESTING.
10. Reconnect disabled circuits.
11. Notify the proper authorities that the system is back on line.

LASER SAFETY INFORMATION
This smoke detector does not produce any hazardous laser radiation and is
certified as a Class 1 laser product under the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard according to the
Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968.
Any radiation emitted inside the smoke detector is completely within the pro-
tective housings and external covers. The laser beam cannot escape from the
detector during any phase of operation.
The Center of Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration implemented regulations for laser products on August 2,
1976. These regulations apply to laser products manufactured after August 1,
1976. Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in the United States.
CAUTION
Use of controls, adjustments, or performance of procedures other than those
specified in this manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
B. Smoke Entry: Aerosol Generator (Gemini 501)
The GEMINI model 501 aerosol generator can be used for smoke entry
testing. Set the generator to represent 4%/ft. to 5%/ft. obstruction as
described in the GEMINI 501 manual. Using the bowl shaped applicator,
apply aerosol until the panel alarms.
A sensor that fails any of these tests should be cleaned as described under
CLEANING, and retested. If the sensor fails after cleaning, it must be replaced
and returned for repair.
When testing is complete, restore the system to normal operation and notify
the proper authorities that the system is back in operation.

CLEANING
It is recommended that the detector be removed from its mounting base to
facilitate cleaning. The detector is cleaned as follows:
NOTE: Before removing the detector, notify the proper authorities that the
smoke detector system is undergoing maintenance and will be temporarily
out of service. Disable the zone or system undergoing maintenance to prevent
unwanted alarms.
1. Remove the detector cover by prying away the four side tabs with a
small-bladed screwdriver, and then pulling the cover from the base.
2. Vacuum the screen carefully without removing it. If further cleaning is
required continue with Step 3, otherwise skip to Step 7.
