IMPORTA T!
The setting of the dip switch must be the same on
all interconnected units.
•
Connect the wires to the correct termina s on the
mounting base and fix the mounting base in position..
Ensure the screws are fu y tightened. See Figure 5.
Figure 6 – Wiring &
Interconnect faci ity
The alarm must be wired in accordance with
ational wiring codes.
LIVE : connect to house wires coloured Brown,
Red or marked with L.
EUTRAL : connect to house wires coloured
Blue, Black or marked with .
INTERCONNECT : norma y not used except to
hardwire interconnect to the mains smoke (Garvan
mode GNS-2236) or heat a arm (Garvan mode
GNS-1263S). Never use EARTH wire for
interconnect wire.
Remark
G S-2236RF smoke alarm & G S-2263RF heat alarm
are detectors, which can be interconnected with
each other by wireless radio links.
In another case, the user will have the option to
interconnect them to the other hard wired type
smoke alarms by the wiring be the “interconnection
terminal” on the base.
WAR I G: Connection to the EARTH terminal is not
needed for correct functioning of the Smoke Alarm. It is
just for conveniently terminating any earth supply wire
coloured green or green/yellow. It does not provide
protective earthing for the Smoke Alarm
•
Insert a 9V battery firm y into battery compartment on
the rear of the a arm. NOTE POLARITY OF
CONNECTIONS. Ensure the meta tab is fu y
depressed when the battery has been fitted.
NOTE – For the safety of the end user the smoke a arm
cannot be fitted without its battery.
•
Before assemb y to base p ate test the correct operation
of the smoke a arm (operating from the battery on y) by
depressing the test button on the front of the a arm. The
unit shou d emit a oud pu sating a arm.
•
Assemb e a arm onto the mounting p ate by s iding it in
according to the direction of the arrows.
•
Restore the AC supp y
•
Test the correct operation of the smoke a arm by
depressing the test button on the front of the detector. The
unit shou d emit a oud pu sating a arm.
•
Shou d use 2.1mm wire for connection.
OPERATING YOUR SMOKE ALARM
Once the smoke a arm has been insta ed a sma GREEN
indicator ight (LED) shou d be visib e through the a arm gri
indicating that AC supp y is hea thy. A RED indicator ight (LED)
shou d a so f ash approximate y once a minute to indicate the
battery is hea thy and the unit is operating proper y.
If smoke is detected, the unit wi emit a oad pu sating a arm and
a RED indicator ight (LED) wi be f ashing quick y at the same
time unti the air is c ear.
At norma time, the radio ink modu e is working under s eep
mode. It wi open the receiving window at a short time around
every 20 seconds. In order to awake it and set it at transmission
mode, the simp est way is to press the button on top of the
smoke detector. It wi continua y transmit as ong as the button
is pressed.
To ast two units’ transmission and reception performances’
parameters, it is important to set them with the same code. The
dip switch for setting the code is avai ab e on the mounting base
of the unit. When one is at its receiving mode, it can receive a
triggering signa from the transmitting unit within 20 seconds. As
soon as the receiving unit gets the signa , it wi activate the
a arm to sound oud y unit the transmitting signa is vanished.
TESTING YOUR SMOKE ALARM
It is recommended that you test your smoke a arm once a week
to ensure the detector is working correct y.
Push and ho d the test button for approximate y 3 seconds. A
oud pu sating a arm shou d sound and a RED indicator ight
(LED)wi f ash at the same time.
NOTE – for mu tip e interconnected smoke a arms(either by
radio ink or hardwire), on y the RED indicator ight (LED) of the
originating unit wi f ash rapid y. A other units in the
interconnect system wi sound an a arm(for radio ink
interconnected units, it wi sound within 20 seconds) but their
RED indicator ight (LED) wi NOT f ash. Test each a arm
checking that the a arm is triggered on a other a arms insta ed.
HUSH OR SILENCE FEATURE
This Smoke A arm has a bui t-in Hush or Si ence feature
incorporated into the Test button. If cooking or other non-
hazardous sources cause the unwanted a arm, it can be
temporari y si enced by depressing the test button and ho ding
for approximate y 3 seconds. The a arm wi enter a dormant
period for 10 minutes. The red LED wi f ash every 10 seconds
to indicate the sensitivity is reduced. At the end of the hush
period the a arm wi reset to norma sensitivity.
OTE – If the smoke density increase during this period(i.e.
from a fire) the unit wi go into a arm mode.
LOW BATTERY WARNING
If the smoke a arm emits a short ‘beep’ once a minute the
battery is at the end of its ife and shou d be rep aced
immediate y. This ow vo tage warning wi be given for at east
30 days. In this case, the other interconnected units in the
system which are not in ow battery condition wi chirps for a
few seconds once a hour as ong as the detector with the
“dead” battery beeps.
If the red indicator ight (LED) does not f ash every minute then
rep ace the battery.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
A ways TURN OFF the A.C. supp y to the smoke a arm before
rep acing the battery. Rep ace the battery at east once
annua y, or immediate y when the ow battery signa sounds
once a minute, even though the smoke a arm is receiving A.C.
power.
Test the alarm for correct operation using the test facility
whenever the battery is replaced.
