Removing an Alarm from a multiLINX Network
In the event that an alarm must be removed from your network, the alarm’s
multiLINX data must be erased.
Press and hold the button on the front cover of
the alarm. The red FIRE light will flash rapidly
and the alarm will sound three tones.
Continue holding the button down.
Next, the WARNING light will begin to flash
yellow. Count
10 flashes of the yellow
WARNING light and release the button.
The alarm will chirp twice and all four of the
lighted icons will strobe on.
All multiLINX data has been erased from
the alarm. It will now perform as a single
station alarm or it can be joined to a new
network.
