Installation Instructions

Mount
Refer to the Smoke Detector System Application Guide (P/N
SPAG9101) and the Limitations of Fire Alarm Systems (P/N 800-
15144) for detailed information on detector spacing, placement
zoning and special applications. Copies of this document are
available on https://mywebtech.honeywellhome.com/.
NOTE: Before mounting the detector permanently, conduct a Walk
test (see control’s instructions) to verify adequate signal strength
and adjust the device location and orientation as necessary.
The detector can be mounted on the ceiling or on the wall (if local
ordinances permit). Select a location and mount using the included
mounting hardware.

Testing
The detector should be tested immediately after installation and at least once a year.
Recommended: Notify the Central Station that the smoke detector is undergoing tests, so they do not dispatch authorities.
Tests and testing methods:
There is no specific Test Mode that needs to be entered to test smoke, heat, or Rate-of-Rise. These can be applied to the detector
at any time as a test.
• Test Button – When the Test button is held down, the unit initiates a test on the smoke sensor, chamber, heat sensor, End-of-
Life, and battery. If all tests pass, it sounds a normal alarm and sends alarm signal to the Control. However, if one of these tests
fails, it will send a trouble signal to the Control and provide fail status on the yellow led and sounder.
The Test Button is also used to silence or hush the sounder. To silence the detector, press the large test button or disarm the
system at the Control. The detector sounds again after 10 minutes if the alarm condition still physically exists (smoke in the
chamber). When programmed for One-Go-All-Go mode, the detector can only be silenced from the Control. See the LED and
Sounder Indication Chart on the next page for details.
• Smoke Entry Test (canned smoke*) – Can be done at any time. Once the Chamber is clear, the sounder will stop, and it will
send a restore signal to the Control.
• Direct Heat Test (hair dryer 12” or further from the detector)
- 135° F fixed Heat Detection
- Rate-of-Rise >104° F (40° C) @ 15° F/minute (8.33° C/minute).
CAUTION: The detector will alarm when 135° F is exceeded and restore when it falls below 135° F. However, the thermistor will be
damaged at 195° F and the integrity of the detector itself will be compromised and will need to be replaced.
