Voltex SAS115BW User manual

Where it is not possible to place the alarm on the ceiling,
the smoke alarm may be installed on the wall at a minimum
of 300mm and a maximum of 500mm off the ceiling at the
junction of the wall.
There are special requirements for stairways, sloping ceilings
and ceilings with exposed beams. Specific requirements are
explained in the relevant Building Regulation.
¬ This Voltex Smoke Alarm is designed for use in
residential dwellings. It is intended to detect smoke
before it reaches the sleeping occupants of a
building. The ensuing alarm is designed to wake the
occupants and give them time to evacuate the building.
¬ This smoke alarm SHALL be installed in accordance
with national and local council building regulations
and the latest edition of the Australian and New
Zealand wiring Rules AS/NZS 3000. Building codes
and regulations may vary from each state jurisdiction.
¬ The smoke alarm incorporates a non-replaceable
battery which is manufactured to power the
smoke alarm for at least 10 years without being
recharged subject to normal use and regular
maintenance from the date of manufacture.
To reduce the likelihood of nuisance alarms, do not install a
smoke alarm near cooking appliances, in bathroom, laundry
room, or close to heating and cooling supply vents.
Do not install a smoke alarm in dusty or dirty areas.
Do not install a smoke alarm where bugs or insects are
present.
NOTE: Recently the wireless paring signal has changed. You
will ONLY be able to pair alarms marked with this symbol
on the inner box and sticker on rear of product.
Please contact Voltex on 1300 722 275 in case of needing to
pair with an earlier version.
¬At least one smoke alarm shall be fitted on each storey
(including basements) - in each bedroom and in corridors
or hallways which connect bedrooms and the rest of
the dwelling or as required by relevant local legislation.
¬Where practicable smoke alarms should be placed on
the ceiling.
¬It is important to install the smoke alarm in the centre
of the room, avoiding dead air spaces (an area in which
trapped hot air will prevent smoke from reaching the
alarm). Smoke alarms must not be placed within:
¬ Smoke alarms must be paired (interconnected) with
every other smoke alarm so they all activate together
› 300mm of a corner of a ceiling and a wall
› 300mm of a light fitting
› 400mm of an air-conditioning vent
› 400mm of the blades of a ceiling fan

WIRELESS TEST PROCEDURE
Press and hold the test button on any alarm for at least 2 seconds
to test all alarms. After a short delay, all paired alarms will chirp and
flash a RED LED on the front face twice a second for 5 minutes or until
the button is pressed. Check all smoke alarms are paired correctly.
NOTE: If the MASTER smoke alarm fails to pair within 30 seconds or
the button is pressed again 3 times in 2 seconds the unit will return to
normal standby mode. To continue pairing, repeat step d) and e). Once
a SLAVE smoke alarm is paired, the 30 seconds count down will be
reset. More SLAVE smoke alarms can be added into connected group
later by repeating the pairing process but must pair with previous
MASTER smoke alarm.

NOTE: Smoke alarms can be paired and unpaired indefinitely.
PAIRING
Turn on each alarm by rotating the mounting bracket to ON
position.
Test each smoke alarm individually by pressing and holding
the test button on the front centre of the smoke alarm for 2
seconds. The smoke alarm will sound after a short delay.
c) Press the test button on any smoke alarm 3 times within 2
seconds to enter “Pairing Mode”. This unit now becomes the
MASTER smoke alarm. Suggest to mark the MASTER unit at
back for adding more SLAVE smoke alarm in the future.
d) The MASTER alarm will search for any slave alarms to pair
with. MASTER alarm will exit pairing mode after 30 seconds of
inactivity has elapsed.
On the SLAVE alarm press the test button 3 times within 2
seconds to enter pairing mode. If the LED on both alarms is
GREEN for 5 seconds they have been successfully paired. The
MASTER alarm LED will then turn BLUE until another pairing
request is received. The SLAVE alarm LED will turn off and the
MASTER alarm is now ready to pair to the next SLAVE.
When all SLAVE alarms have been paired successfully, press
the test button on the MASTER smoke alarm to exit pairing
mode, or wait 30 seconds to automatically exit. The BLUE LED
will TURN OFF.
Repeat pairing process for any additional SLAVE smoke
alarms required.
The Network status is indicated on the NET LED on the back
of the alarm.
• RED LED indicates there is no network available yet.
• BLUE LED indicates device is sending pairing request
• GREEN LED indicates the device is pairing
Take the smoke alarms into the rooms where they will be
installed and perform Wireless Test Procedure.
3Turn off each smoke alarm by rotating the mounting bracket
to OFF position.
1Remove the unit from the mounting bracket and ensure the
internal switch is in the OFF position.
2Press and hold the test button while shifting the switch to the
ON position. A RED LED should be lit for 3 seconds.
3When the RED LED turns off, release the test button. The
RED LED should light again for 3 seconds. During these 3
seconds, press the test button momentarily to unpair the
smoke alarm. The RED LED should flash for a few seconds.
4When the RED LED stops flashing the product has been
returned to its factory state.
5Turn the smoke alarm off by moving the internal switch back
to the OFF position.
4Place the bracket in the desired location and mark the
mounting holes. Mount the base plate using the plugs and
screws provided or an equivalent method.
5Insert the smoke alarm into the mounting bracket and rotate
until it clicks positively into place. This will turn the smoke
alarm back on.
6Test interconnection again using the Wireless Test Procedure.
While the unit is sounding an alarm, pushing the test button
will hush the alarm for approximately 10 minutes. The red
LED will flash once every 8 seconds to indicate the smoke
alarm is running in hush mode.
If more than one alarm is paired, identify the alarm with the
red flashing LED, as this will be the only alarm that can be
hushed. All paired alarms will stop sounding thereafter.
