INTERCONNECTING SMOKE ALARMS
• This smoke alarm may be interconnected with as many as 11
other Firex model FADC, AD, ADC, PAD or FX1218 smoke
alarms, and as many as 6 Firex model ADH heat alarms for a
total of not more than 18 interconnected devices. DO NOT con-
nect to any other type or model smoke alarm.
• Connect smoke alarms to a single AC branch circuit. If local codes
do not permit, be sure the neutral wire is common to both phases.
LED INDICATOR(S)
Model FADC features one combined LED indicator. The following
section explains what condition the LED indicator is describing:
• Constant GREEN on - AC power is present
• GREEN is off - AC power is NOT present
• RED blinks once a minute - testing for presence of good
battery
• RED blinks once a second - smoke alarm senses smoke
and simultaneously sounds
an alarm
• RED blinks once every 10 - smoke alarm is quieting an
seconds unwanted alarm (Models
ADC and FADC only)
• RED is off and detector in alarm - another smoke alarm in the
(interconnected systems only) network has sensed smoke
and is signaling this alarm.
Item 4718 only
