1. Introduction:
The Smoke Alarm Remote Control model
6000THL allows compatible Lifesaver Smoke
Alarms to be conveniently tested, hushed and
located. It has a memory feature and status
indication. This controller is wireless and will
provide home owners with a more convenient
method to identify which smoke alarm has
activated, easily silence alarms and also promote
regular testing of smoke alarms. The Smoke
Alarm Remote Control will only control compatible
240VAC mains powered smoke alarm models that
are mounted on the 6000WB Wireless Base.
Important: Only compatible smoke alarms will
operate with the remote control. Failing to use the
correct smoke alarm and accessories may render
the system inoperable.
One Smoke Alarm Remote Control can operate
up to 23 smoke alarms on a wireless system.
Compatible: Models
Smoke Alarm 6000DCW, 6000, 6000RL,
6000W, 6000RLW
Wireless Base 6000WB

45
The wireless signal uses radio frequency to
create an interlinked network of smoke alarms.
When one smoke alarm activates, it will trigger
other smoke alarms within the same wireless
network. The Smoke Alarm Remote Control will
test, hush and locate smoke alarms within the
same wireless network.

4. Programming the Network
Before using the Remote Control, the unit needs to
be programmed to an existing wireless network of
smoke alarms.
4.1 Definitions:
OOB: Out Of Box. Factory Default status. When first turned
ON, an OOB device will auto-search and join an existing
wireless network.
Standby: Normal mode, connected to a wireless network.
Stand alone: Not connected to a network. Stand alone
mode.
4.2 New Wireless Network Setup
If you are joining this Remote Control at the same
time as other new wireless smoke alarms, then follow
the setup procedure in the wireless smoke alarm
User Guide as well.
1. First, create or open a wireless network of smoke
alarms before joining the smoke alarm control.
2. Slide the power switch (at the back of the Remote)
to ON position. The Remote will automatically
search for a wireless network; its red LED will flash
ON and OFF every alternate second.
When the Remote has successfully joined a
wireless network, its LEDs will light up in a rotating
sequence.
3. Close the network on the smoke alarms by press-
ing 6000THL or 6000DCW or 6000WB button
2 times. And then all RF devices will go into stand-

10
by mode. The network will also timeout after 15 min-
utes and automatically close. But if it didn’t connect
to any network after 15 minutes, the Smoke Alarm
Remote Control will go into Stand Alone mode and
the Green LED will flash twice every 30 seconds.
NOTE: It is recommended to first create the wireless
smoke alarm network. Then use the Push To Test
(PTT) to confirm it is working properly (See wireless
smoke alarm User Guide). And then join this Remote
as an additional device in the wireless network.

a Coordinator.
