RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROPER PROTECTION
The Following Recommendations for the Location of Fire and Burglary Detection Devices Help
Provide Proper Coverage for the Protected Premises.
Recommendations for Smoke and Heat Detectors
With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we subscribe to the
recommendations contained in the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard #72
noted below.
•Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and
areas of the household as follows: For minimum protection a smoke detector should be installed outside of each
separate sleeping area, and on each additional floor of a multi-floor family living unit, including basements. The
installation of smoke detectors in kitchens, attics (finished or unfinished), or in garages is not normally
recommended.
•For additional protection the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke detectors in the living room,
dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen, hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements and
attached garages.
In addition, we recommend the following:
•Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where a smoker sleeps.
•Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom where someone sleeps with the door partly or completely
closed. Smoke could be blocked by the closed door. Also, an alarm in the hallway outside may not wake up the
sleeper if the door is closed.
•Install a smoke detector inside bedrooms where electrical appliances (such as portable heaters, air
conditioners or humidifiers) are used.
•Install a smoke detector at both ends of a hallway if the hallway is more than 40 feet (12 meters) long.
•Install smoke detectors in any room where an alarm control is located, or in any room where alarm control
connections to an AC source or phone lines are made. If detectors are not so located, a fire within the room could
prevent the control from reporting a fire or an intrusion.
THIS CONTROL COMPLIES WITH NFPA REQUIREMENTS FOR TEMPORAL PULSE
SOUNDING OF FIRE NOTIFICATION APPLIANCES.

Recommendations For Proper Intrusion Protection
•For proper intrusion coverage, sensors should be located at every possible point of entry to a home or
premises. This would include any skylights that may be present, and the upper windows in a multi-level
building.
•In addition, we recommend that radio backup be used in a security system. This will ensure that alarm
signals can be sent to the alarm monitoring station in the event that the telephone lines are out of order (alarm
signals are normally sent over the phone lines, if connected to an alarm monitoring station).

in Canada). Refer to the wiring table below for wire gauge and length. In the event of an AC power loss, the
system is supported by a long life backup battery that is supervised for connection and for low voltage
conditions. If the battery is missing, or a low battery condition is detected, a “low battery” message is
displayed and a report is sent to the central station. In addition, the system will beep once every 45 seconds
to audibly indicate a low battery condition (press any key to stop the beeping).
Use only the provided 300-04705 or 300-04065 (300-04063 Canada) Power Supply. Wiring to the Power
Supply must not exceed 300 feet using 16-gauge wire.
Do not plug the power supply into the AC outlet until after all wiring connections have been made. Ensure the
