5800CO Carbon Monoxide Detector
with Built-in Wireless Transmitter
INSTALLATION AND SETUP GUIDE
GENERAL INFORMATION
The 5800CO is a 3V battery powered wireless Carbon Monoxide (CO)
detector intended for use with wireless alarm systems that support
5800 series devices. Refer to control/communicator installation
instructions for compatibility.
Compatible Controls: This detector can be used with 5800 series
compatible controls (Listed to UL864 and/or UL985) that support a
carbon monoxide zone type and utilize a 5881 receiver.
The detector consists of an electrochemical carbon monoxide
sensor assembly coupled to a wireless transmitter. The
transmitter can send alarm, trouble, end-of-life, tamper, and
battery condition messages to the system’s receiver. Refer to the
wireless system’s instructions for the maximum number of
transmitters that can be supported.
NOTICE: These instructions should be left with the
owner/user of this equipment.
IMPORTANT: This detector must be tested and maintained
regularly following NFPA 720 requirements.
WARNING: This product is not intended for use in industrial
factories or commercial parking garages.
Detector Description
• Listed to UL standard 2075
CO sensitivity is evaluated to UL 2034
• Supervised
• Local sounder
• Dual LED’s
• Test/Hush button
• Surface mount to wall or ceiling
• Optional drywall anchors included
The 5800CO contains a piezoelectric horn which generates the ANSI
S3.41 temporal 4 pattern in an alarm condition (see note below Table
1 for temporal 4 pattern). In alarm, a message is also sent to the
control panel and the detector’s zone number is displayed at the
console. The alarm message is transmitted every 4 seconds until the
carbon monoxide condition has cleared and the detector has reset.
During an alarm condition, pressing the detector’s test button will
silence the piezoelectric horn for five minutes. Once the detector has
reset, a RESTORE message is transmitted to the control panel and
the transmitter’s zone number can be cleared from the panel. The
mounting base installation is simplified by the incorporation of
features compatible with drywall fasteners or other methods that
provide a method for securing the detector in place.
Two LEDs and a sounder on the detector provide local visual and
audible indication of the detector’s status as listed in Table 1.
During initial power-up, the red and green LEDs will blink together
once every 10 seconds four times. It takes about 30 seconds for the
detector’s CO sensor to stabilize (see Table 1).
After power-up has completed and the detector is functioning
normally, the green LED blinks once every 10 seconds. The LED
indication must not be used in place of the tests specified under
TESTING THE DETECTOR.

a five second pause. If ambient conditions return to normal, the
detector will self-restore out of alarm and into the previous mode.
†† Red and green LEDs blink a total of four times, once every 10
seconds.
Hush feature: If required, the audible alarm can be silenced for five
minutes by pushing the Test button. The red alarm light will
continue to flash in temp-4 pattern. If carbon monoxide is still
present after the 5-minute hush period, the audible alarm will sound.
The hush feature will not operate at levels above 350 ppm (parts per
million) carbon monoxide.
Trouble feature: When the sensor supervision is in a trouble
condition, the detector will send a trouble signal to the panel. The red
LED blinks once every five seconds. Trouble conditions include an
open circuit, sensor removal (tamper), and sensor end of life.
End of Life Timer feature: When the detector has reached the end
of its life, the detector will send a trouble signal to the panel. This
indicates that the CO sensor inside the detector has passed the end
of its life and the detector must be replaced. This detector’s lifespan
is approximately six years from the date of manufacture. Refer to
Detector Replacement section.
Low Battery Detection: The 5800CO is powered by a single 3-volt
CR123A or DL123A Lithium battery (included). The detector checks
for a low battery at least every 65 minutes. If a low battery is
detected, the transmitter sends a low battery message to the control
panel, which beeps and displays the detector’s zone number. In
addition, the red LED of the detector will blink every 45 seconds.
After 7 days the detector’s horn will “chirp” about every 45 seconds
(red LED continues to blink) for up to 30 days. Pressing the test
button during this time will silence the chirps for 12 hours, if no
other trouble conditions exist. The battery should be replaced
BEFORE the chirps begin. Be sure to replace the battery with a fresh
one.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules and RSS210 of
Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
Unauthorized changes or modifications could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.

BATTERY INSTALLATION AND REPLACEMENT
To replace the battery:
1. Remove the detector from its mounting base by twisting the
detector counterclockwise. Remove the battery and dispose of
properly.
2. To ensure proper power-down sequence, wait a minimum of 20
seconds before installing new battery.
3. Install a new 3-volt CR123A Lithium battery in the battery
compartment. Follow the polarity diagram inside the
compartment.
4. Reinstall the detector onto the mounting base by turning the
detector clockwise.
5. Test the detector as described in the TESTING SIGNAL
STRENGTH section of this manual. The green LED should blink
about once every 10 seconds to indicate normal operation. If the
battery is not installed correctly, the detector will not operate and
the battery may be damaged. If the detector does not appear to be
sending a signal during any of the tests, check for correct battery
installation and for a fully charged battery.

d. Check that the detector is enrolled as loop 1.
6. Exit Programming mode when programming is complete, and
test the detector. Refer to the Testing Section.
See the control unit’s installation instructions for more details.
MOUNTING THE DETECTOR
First, determine the best location for the detector, one that provides
proper carbon monoxide detection (see Figure 4 for suggested
detection locations) and a strong wireless transmission path.
Proper Carbon Monoxide Detection Location
In a wall location, the detector should be at least as high as a light
switch, and at least six inches from the ceiling. In a ceiling location,
the detector should be at least 12 inches from any wall.
Where to install, ideally:
• Within 10 feet of all sleeping areas
• Inside the bedroom if it contains a fuel burning appliance
• On every floor of the building
• Ideally, install in any room that contains a fuel burning appliance
• If the appliance in the room is not normally used, such as the
boiler room, the detector should be placed just outside the room so
the alarm can be heard more easily
Where NOT to install, ideally:
• Detectors operate best if not installed within 10 feet of any cooking
appliance
• Directly above a sink, cooker, stove or oven
• Next to a door or window that would be affected by drafts i.e.
extractor fan or air vent
• Outside
• Do not install in any environment that does not comply with the
detector’s environmental specifications
• In or below a cupboard
• Where air flow would be obstructed by curtains or furniture
• Where dirt or dust could collect and block the sensor
• Where it could be knocked, damaged, or inadvertently removed
Good Transmission Path
A GOOD TRANSMISSION PATH MUST BE ESTABLISHED FROM
THE PROPOSED MOUNTING LOCATION BEFORE
PERMANENTLY INSTALLING THE DETECTOR. To check,
perform the test described in the TESTING SIGNAL STRENGTH
section. Prior to mounting the detector to the mounting base, you
must “enroll” the detector’s serial number into the system (see the
PROGRAMMING section).
Mounting Procedure
Once a suitable location is found, mount the detector as follows:
1. Refer to the diagram below and install the mounting base on the
ceiling or on the wall (if local ordinances permit) using screw
locations “A” or “B” as required. Use the two screws and anchors
provided. Maneuver the base so the screws are at the elbow of the
screw slots and secure.
2. Fit the detector inside the base by aligning it over the base as
shown (detector’s alignment notch should be slightly offset from
mounting base tamper release tab), then turn the detector in a
clockwise direction until it clicks into place.
3. Test the detector after completing the installation (as described
in the TESTING THE DETECTOR section of this manual) and
refer to the control system’s instructions for additional
information concerning the use of wireless devices.

Tamper Protection
This detector has a built-in tamper switch that will cause a CHECK
signal to be displayed at the console of the alarm system if it is
removed from its mounting base while the system is disarmed (alarm
occurs if system is armed). The 5800CO detector includes a tamper-
resistant feature that prevents removal from the mounting base
without the use of a tool. To engage the tamper-resistant feature, cut
the small plastic tab located on the mounting base (Figure 2), and
then install the detector. To remove the detector from the base once
it has been made tamper resistant, use a small screwdriver to
depress the square tamper release tab, located on the skirt of the
mounting base, and turn the detector counterclockwise.
TESTING THE DETECTOR
NOTE: Before testing, notify the central station that the detector
system is undergoing maintenance, in order to prevent unwanted
alarms. Testing the detector will activate an alarm and send a signal
to the panel. Also, the test function cannot be used if the detector has
a trouble or end-of-life condition.
The manufacturer cannot recommend a specific agent with which to
test the detector.
Detectors must be tested after installation and following periodic
maintenance.
Testing Detector Operation
This test checks the detector’s sounds, LEDs, and transmitter.
1. A recessed test button is located on the detector housing (see
Figure 5).
2. Push and hold the recessed test button for a minimum of 5
seconds. Use a small screwdriver or Allen key with maximum
diameter of 0.18 inch. The alarm panel will trigger and then the
detector will go into alarm. The sounder begins the temporal 4
pattern and the red LED blinks. The alarm panel’s keypad
should display the detector’s zone number in alarm. If the tool is
removed from the recessed button the sounder will shut off and
red LED stops blinking.

Testing Signal Strength
NOTE: Remove battery tab before installation.
This test should be performed before installation to determine a
strong communication path with the control panel and after
installation is complete. Also, the owner/user should test the unit’s
signal strength at least weekly.
1. Activate the wireless system’s GO/NO GO TEST mode from the
keypad (refer to the control’s instruction manual).
2. Depress and hold the detector’s TEST button. If the detector has
not previously detected a low battery condition and it is within
proper sensitivity limits, the detector should immediately
transmit an alarm signal to the control panel. The built-in horn
will start to sound about 2.5 seconds after depressing the
button.
3. The wireless system’s keypad should emit at least three audible
sounds when the alarm transmission is received and will display
the transmitting detector’s zone number.
4. When the console has received the test signal, release the TEST
button. The horn will stop and a few seconds later the detector’s
zone number will clear from the console display.
5. If the console does not respond as noted, check the polarity of
the battery and be sure it is fresh. If this is an initial
installation, try moving the detector to another location that
provides proper reception. Also be sure that the detector has
been “enrolled” by the control panel (see PROGRAMMING).
Then, repeat the test.
6. Turn off the system’s TEST mode from the keypad (security code
+ OFF).
Testing Programmed Loops
This test should be performed before installation to ensure that the
detector has been programmed and is operational in the system.
1. Activate the system’s TRANSMITTER ID SNIFFER mode from
the keypad (see the control panel’s instructions). All
programmed wireless zones will be displayed, one by one, on the
system keypad. Make sure the detector zone is displayed in the
sequence. (If not, recheck that the detector zone has been
properly programmed.)
2. With the detector mounted to the mounting base, press the
detector’s TEST button. The zone associated with the detector
should disappear from the keypad on the next display cycle.
This means that the system has received a transmission from
the detector zone you programmed.
3. When testing is complete, enter the Installer code + the OFF
key to exit TEST mode.
When all system testing has been completed, notify the central
station that the system is back on line.

CAUTION: Carbon Monoxide Gas and its Detection
This carbon monoxide detector is designed for indoor use only. Do not
expose to rain or moisture. Do not knock or drop the detector. Do not
open or tamper with the detector as this could cause malfunction. The
detector will not protect against the risk of carbon monoxide
poisoning if not properly installed. The detector will only indicate the
presence of carbon monoxide gas at the sensor.
Carbon monoxide gas may be present in other areas.
This carbon monoxide detector is NOT:
• Designed to detect smoke, fire or any gas other than carbon
monoxide
• To be seen as a substitute for the proper servicing of fuel-burning
appliances or the sweeping of chimneys.
• To be used on an intermittent basis, or as a portable alarm for the
spillage of combustion products from fuel-burning appliances or
chimneys.
Carbon monoxide gas is a highly poisonous gas which is released
when fuels are burned. It is invisible, has no smell and is therefore
impossible to detect with the human senses. Under normal conditions
in a room where fuel burning appliances are well maintained and
correctly ventilated, the amount of carbon monoxide released into the
room by appliances should not be dangerous.
Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning: Carbon monoxide
bonds to the hemoglobin in the blood and reduces the amount of
oxygen being circulated in the body. The following symptoms are
related to carbon monoxide poisoning and should be discussed with
all members of the household:
Mild exposure: Slight headache, nausea, vomiting, fatigue (often
described as “flu-like” symptoms).
Medium exposure: Sever throbbing headache, drowsiness, confusion,
fast heart rate.
Extreme exposure: Unconsciousness, convulsions, cardio respiratory
failure, death.
Many causes of reported carbon monoxide poisoning indicate that
while victims are aware that they are not well, they become so
disoriented that they are unable to save themselves by either exiting
the building or calling for assistance.
Also young children and pets may be the first to be affected.
!
WARNING: IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE USER
Actuation of your CO alarm indicates the presence of carbon
monoxide (CO), which can cause injury or death.
Individuals with medical problems may consider using warning
devices which provide audible and visual signals for carbon monoxide
concentrations under 30ppm.
What to do if the carbon monoxide detector goes into alarm:
1. Push the Hush/Test button. If the detector reactivates or the
detector does not silence, continue with step 2.
2. Immediately move to fresh air, outdoors or by an open window.
Check that all persons are accounted for. Do not reenter the
premises nor move away from the open door/window until
emergency service responders have arrived.
3. Call your local fire department from a phone in an area where the
air is safe.
4. If your detector reactivates within a 24-hour period, repeat steps
1-3 and call a qualified appliance technician to investigate for
sources of CO from fuel burning equipment and appliances, and
inspect for proper operation of this equipment. If problems are
identified during this inspection, have the equipment serviced
immediately. Note any combustion equipment not inspected by
the technician and consult the manufacturer’s instructions, or
contact the manufacturers directly, for more information about
CO safety and this equipment. Make sure that motor vehicles are
not, and have not been, operating in an attached garage or
adjacent to the residence.
IMPORTANT: This detector should be tested and maintained
regularly following National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 720
requirements. (Generally this detector should be tested at least once
per month.)
MAINTENANCE
Occasionally clean the outside casing with a cloth. Ensure that the
holes on the front of the alarm are not blocked with dirt and dust.
Do not paint, and do not use cleaning agents, bleach, or polish
on the detector.
DETECTOR REPLACEMENT
This detector is manufactured with a long-life carbon monoxide
sensor. Over time the sensor will lose sensitivity, and will need to be
replaced with a new carbon monoxide detector. This detector’s
lifespan is approximately six years from the date of manufacture.
The user should periodically check the detector’s replacement date.
Remove the detector from its base and check the replacement date
label on the underside of the detector. The label indicates the date
that the detector should be replaced.
NOTE: When the detector is removed from its base, a message is sent
to the central station. If the system is armed, a tamper alarm
message is sent; if disarmed, a trouble message is sent.
The detector will also cause a trouble condition once it has reached
the end of its useful life. If this occurs, it is time to replace the
detector.
NOTE: Before replacing the detector, notify the proper authorities
that maintenance is being performed and the system will be
temporarily out of service. Disable the zone or system undergoing
maintenance to prevent any unwanted alarms. Dispose of detector in
accordance with any local regulations.
CAUTION
It should be noted the installation, operation, testing and
maintenance of the 5800CO is different than smoke detectors. Per
NFPA 720 section 5.3.7.2 the detector shall not be connected to a zone
that signals a fire condition (i.e. smoke detector zones). Therefore, the
5800CO detector must be programmed as a non-fire zone. See the
control’s Installation Instructions for the appropriate carbon
monoxide zone type to be programmed.
