1. Activate the locking mechanism if the detector is to be locked into the
base. To do this, remove the small portion of plastic shown in Fig 1 with
side cutters or similar tool.
2. Partially screw two screws into the mounting box or soffit at the required
centres. Place the corresponding slots of the base over the screws and
slide the base home. Tighten up the screws.
3. Fig 1 shows the wiring terminals. The terminal marked ‘4’ on the base
is provided for con-
necting the screen
or functional earth.
4. The outside of the
base is marked with
a moulded vertical
line to indicate the
position of the LED
when the detector
has been fitted. This
facilitates detector
orientation if re-
quired.
5. When all the bases
have been fitted a
voltage test for wiring
continuity may be
carried out. The base is fitted with a continuity link which automatically
opens when a detector is fitted to the base for the first time.
6. TimeSaver Base LX/TimeSaver Diode Base LX
These bases do not have the continuity link.

Unlocking the detector
To unlock the detector from the base, insert a 1.5mm hexagonal driver (part
no 29600-095) into the small hole on the detector face and gently lever the
driver outward whilst rotating the detector anti-clockwise.
TimeSaver Diode Base/TimeSaver Diode Base LX
Fire detection systems that function normally even if a detector head has
been removed usually require a diode to be fitted to the positive connec-
tions of the mounting base.
The TimeSaver base fitted with a diode is marked with ‘OD’ and the Time-
Saver Diode Base LX is marked with ‘DX’ to distinguish them from standard
bases. The diode is factory-fitted at the back of the base between the IN+
and OUT+ terminals.
