Sometimes in order to resolve an wireless interconnection commu-
nication issue, e.g. Alarms have to be relocated, it may be neces-
sary to reset and house code all Radio Linked Alarms and devices
in the system again.
To reset the Alarm Controller, use the screw driver to press the
House Code button 5 times. The red LED will start flash 10 times to
indicate memory has been reset. The Alarm Controller has now
been reset. To reset the other wireless interconnected smoke
alarms in the system consult the appropriate instruction manuals.

Warranty
If, when checking the wireless interconnection, some of the Alarms
do not respond to the Alarm Controller remote control test, then:
(i) Ensure the Alarm Controller has been activated correctly. Check
that the power on procedure operates as described in the ‘Installa-
tion’ section.
(ii) Repeat House Code procedure (see ‘House Coding’ section).
(iii) Relocate the Alarm Controller and/or rotate/relocate the
wireless smoke alarms. There are a number of reasons why the RF
signals may not reach all the alarms in your system. Try rotating the
alarms or relocating the alarms (e.g. move them away from metal
surfaces or wiring) as this can significantly improve signal recep-
tion.
Rotating and/or relocating the alarms may move them out of the
range of existing units even though they may have already been
House Coded correctly in the system. It is therefore important to
check that all alarms are communicating in their final installed
positions. If alarms are rotated and/or relocated, we recommend
that all Alarms are returned to the factory settings (see the respec-
tive use and care instructions). Then House Code all alarms again
in their final positions. The wireless interconnection should then be
checked again.
Troubleshooting
Frequent testing of the system is advised to ensure its continued
and safe operation. Guidelines and best practices for testing are as
follows:
1. After the system is installed.
2. Once weekly thereafter.
3. After prolonged absence from the dwelling (e.g. after holiday
period).
4. After repair or servicing of any of the system elements or
household electrical works.
1. Press the “TEST / SILENCE” button 1 time on the Alarm Control-
ler. The red LED will light up for 2 minutes 30 seconds to indicate the
controller is in test mode. In this period, the controller will send
signal constantly to all radio linked device.
2. All device that has already linked to the controller will receive the
signals, flashes red LED and alarm.
3. To manually turn off the controller from Test mode, press the
“TEST / SILENCE” button 1 time. The red LED will turn off.
Note: The controller will turn off the Test mode after 2 minutes 30
seconds. If user has not complete testing all smoke alarm, repeat
from No.1. If the test fails go to “Troubleshooting” section.
Operation
Testing the alarm system
If there is a fire, immediately evacuate the premises and telephone
the fire brigade.
When the alarm system sounds
If the FIRE indicator is lighting and there is no obvious fire, user may
trace the source device to check. Controller receiving the signal
from the wireless interconnected smoke alarm will flash red LED.
1. Press the “LOCATE” button 1 time on the controller. The red LED
on the controller will change from flashing to steady glowing.
2. After 3 seconds, all other wireless interconnected smoke alarm
will stop alarming and flashing red LED except the source smoke
alarm.
Note: The controller will turn off the Locate Mode after 2 minutes. If
the source smoke alarm is still activated after 2 minutes (detected
smoke alarm), the wireless interconnected alarm will resume alarm-
ing and flashing red LED. If user has not yet traced the source
smoke alarm, repeat No.1
Locate the source Alarm(s)
If you are satisfied there is no fire but the smoke alarm is still
continuing to alarm you may now silence the system. Controller
receiving the signal from the wireless smoke alarm will flash red
LED.
1. Press the “TEST / SILENCE” button 1 time on the controller. The
red LED on the controller will change from flashing to steady
glowing.
2. After 5 seconds, the source wireless interconnected device will
enter silence mode. All other radio linked device will stop sounding.
The silence feature has been completed.
Silence the source Alarm(s)
The Alarm controller uses a sealed lithium battery to operate. The
Lithium Battery will operate this alarm control approximately 10
yeasr under normal usage.
The controller flashes the yellow LED light every 10 seconds
when the battery is low. User must replace for a new controller.
Purhcase a new controller from your retailer store and contact
your installer for details.
