How to Set up and Interconnect Wireless Alarms
All X-Sense Link+wireless interlinked alarms contain a built-in RF module that
enables you to wirelessly connect 2 or more interlinked alarms and create an
interlinked network. When one unit is triggered, all interconnected alarms
will sound. The X-Sense Link+series contain wireless interlinked smoke
alarms, wireless interlinked carbon monoxide alarms, and wireless interlinked
combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarms. This model is designed to
be wirelessly interlinked with other X-Sense Link+ alarms, but is not designed
to communicate with wireless interlinked alarms from other manufacturers.
The X-Sense Link+wireless interlinked alarms in one multi-pack have
already been interconnected, and the alarms in each multi-pack have
their own independent interlinked network. If you have more than one
multi-pack, you will need to connect them all to the same network.
Choose one multi-pack as your base network and connect the other
multi-packs to it.
NOTE! The following instructions regarding wireless interconnection are
applicable to the X-Sense Link+ wireless interlinked alarms only.
How to Interconnect
1. Make sure you only work with 2 units at a time, and make sure that they
are both turned on to ensure successful connection.

04 05
NOTE: To turn on XS01-WR, remove the battery insulating lm from
the battery compartment. To learn how to turn on dierent models of
wireless interlinked alarms, please refer to their specic user manuals
for more details.
2. Quickly press the test/silence button on one of the 2 units 4 times; it will beep
once and the red LED will flash slowly, indicating it has entered pairing mode
and is waiting for a new unit to be added. Quickly press the test/silence button
on the other unit twice; it will beep once and the red LED will flash rapidly,
indicating it is searching for a device to connect to.
3. After the search is successful and an interconnected group is created, both
units will beep once and automatically exit the interconnection mode. At
this point, both units will only flash once 60 seconds, indicating they are in
normal standby mode.
4. If you want to connect a third alarm to this group, first activate a new
device according to its operating instructions and then quickly press the
test/silence button on either of the 2 previously interconnected units 4
times. This unit will beep once, and the red LED will flash slowly, indicating
it is ready to add a new device to the network. Next, quickly press the test/
silence button on the new unit twice, and the red LED will flash rapidly as it
searches for a network to connect to. After the third unit successfully joins
the interconnected network, both units will beep once and automatically
exit the interconnection mode.
5. If you want to connect more units, simply repeat step 4. Up to 24 alarms
can be interconnected this way. To ensure that all alarms enter the same
interlinked network, make sure you only work with 2 units at a time one
unit enters the pairing mode and the other unit enters the searching
mode.
6. Test the alarms according to the steps in the section“Alarm Test.”
NOTES
1. The alarm will enter the searching mode or the pairing mode for 60
seconds with the red LED ashing. After 60 seconds, repeat step 2 to
connect the alarms. If needed, press the test/silence button once while
the alarm is in the searching mode or the pairing mode, and the red
LED will stop ashing and the alarm will quit the pairing mode to enter
normal status.

2. If you have purchased the old version of the XS01-WR alarms, you can
add X-Sense Link+wireless interlinked alarms into the existing XS01-WR
interconnected network.
1. To ensure that an X-Sense Link+wireless interlinked alarm successfully
connects to an X-Sense XS01-WR network, choose one of the previously
interconnected XS01-WR smoke alarms, remove it from the mounting
bracket, and keep this alarm at least 33 ft (10 m) away from the other
alarms in the existing network.
2. Turn on one X-Sense Link+wireless interlinked alarm according to its
operating instructions. Quickly press its test/silence button twice; the
alarm will beep once, and the LED will flash red rapidly as it searches for a
network to connect to. Next, quickly press the test/silence button 4 times
on the XS01-WR alarm that was removed from the mounting bracket; it
will beep once and the LED will flash red rapidly, indicating it is ready to
add a new device to the network.
3. After the two units successfully pair, both units will beep once and
automatically exit the interconnection mode. At this point, the X-Sense
Link+alarm has also joined the existing XS01-WR network. Both units will
only flash once per minute, indicating they are in normal standby mode.
4. If you want to connect more X-Sense Link+wireless interlinked alarms,
simply repeat step 1-2. Up to 24 alarms can be interconnected this way. To
ensure that all alarms enter the same interlinked network, make sure you
add X-Sense Link+wireless interlinked alarms one at a time.
5. Test the alarms according to the steps in the section“Alarm Test”.
2. Test all wireless alarms to ensure they are interconnected before
installation.
3. A maximum of 24 wireless alarms can be interconnected on the same
network.
4. The model can only be interconnected with other X-Sense Link+wireless
interlinked alarms.
How to Add X-Sense Link+Wireless Interlinked Alarms to the X-Sense
XS01-WR Network
The XS01-WR model has 2 versions: the old version, XS01-WR, and the
new version, X-Sense Link+XS01-WR, which have different interconnection
methods. The new version belongs to the X-Sense Link+series and there is
a“Link+” icon on the label on the back of the unit. Check whether the “Link+”
icon is on the label to distinguish between these 2 versions.
NOTES:
1. The following instructions for wireless interconnection are only
applicable to the old version of the X-Sense XS01-WR wireless interlinked
smoke alarms, not the X-Sense Link+wireless interlinked alarms.

How to Disconnect
Quickly press the test/silence button 4 times; the smoke alarm will beep
once. Then, hold down the button until it beeps once more to disconnect.
After disconnecting, it can be reconnected to the same network, or added to
a new network.
NOTE: The X-Sense Link+wireless interlinked alarms in one multi-pack
have already been interconnected. To create a new network, you will rst
need to disconnect each alarm individually in this multi-pack to avoid
having them all join the same network.
Alarm Test
Be sure to test your smoke alarms when you turn them on for the first time,
or when the group configuration has changed. In addition to the weekly
tests you should perform, it is recommended to test the alarm after returning
from a long trip or vacation.
If your X-Sense Link+XS01-WR is interconnected to other wireless smoke
alarms, we recommend that every individual smoke alarm is tested during
the weekly test.

1. Prioritize the installation of an alarm in the bedroom and walkways, and
make sure you can hear the alarm from all sleeping areas. In a home with
several bedrooms, install an alarm in every bedroom. If you install only one
smoke alarm in your home, install the alarm near to all bedrooms where
possible, and not in a basement or furnace room.
2. Install an alarm above the stairway and on every floor of the house.
3. Smoke, heat and anything burning will spread horizontally after rising to
the ceiling, so install the alarm in the middle of the ceiling where possible.
Ensure that the alarm is installed at the minimum distance away from
corner.
4. If an alarm cannot be installed in the middle of a ceiling, install it at a
distance of 20 inches (50 cm) away from the corners of the room.
5. If an alarm is installed onto a wall, a distance of 4-12 inches (10-30 cm)
should be kept below the ceiling.
6. If the length of a room or hall is beyond 30 feet (900 cm), several alarms
should be installed in the same room.
7. When the wall or ceiling is angled, the alarm needs to be installed within 3
feet (90 cm) of the highest wall or ceiling point (measured horizontally) in
the room.
8. In multi-level houses or apartments, install at least one wireless smoke
alarm on each level and keep them installed in a straight vertical line
(see diagram) with as few obstacles between each of the interconnected
alarms as possible to ensure optimal signal transmission.

14 15
Locations to Avoid
1. Near large metal surfaces and/or bundles of wire.
2. Near fluorescent lights, amateur radios, electrical equipment, or other
