8.1 Alarm Factor 
The detector calculates sensitivity relative to the ambient environmental conditions. Higher Alarm Factors 
provide reduced sensitivity (the Alarm threshold is maintained further away from the ambient level). Refer 
to the Remote Software manual for further details. 
NOTE: Changing the Alarm Factor starts a new FastLearn cycle: during the initial 15 minute learning 
period, the detector is incapable of reporting an alarm. The unit will take 24 hours to achieve 
optimum performance, based on the ambient conditions. 
8.2 ClassiFire
®
 Enabled 
Allows the artificial intelligence system to continuously adjust Alarm thresholds in order to avoid unwanted 
Alarms from environmental changes (recommended). 
NOTE: Enabling this feature means that nuisance alarms due to fluctuations in the ambient environment 
become less likely.
