Description

Radio communication
The detector connects to the controller/control panel at regular time intervals to provide information about its state (periodical communication). Additional communication takes place in the case of alarm (smoke / high temperature is sensed by the detector) or tamper (tamper switch has been opened) and after the restoration of alarm (smoke / high temperature is sensed no more by the detector) or tamper (tamper switch has been closed).
Fire alarm
Smoke detection
An optical method is used for the detection of visible smoke. When the concentration of smoke in the optical chamber exceeds a given threshold, an alarm is triggered. The smoke sensor operating parameters are modified depending on the temperature changes recorded by the heat sensor (thermistor). The detector automatically compensates for gradual changes in the optical chamber caused by the deposition of dust.
Temperature detection
The temperature exceeding 54°C or a too fast temperature rise (see table 1) will trigger an alarm.

Air temperature rise velocity	The lower limit of response time	The upper limit of response time
1°C/min	29 min	40 min 20 s
3°C/min	7 min 13 s	13 min 40 s
5°C/min	4 min 9 s	8 min 20 s
10°C/min	1 min	4 min 20 s
20°C/min	30 s	2 min 20 s
30°C/min	20 s	1 min 40 s

Table 1. Response time limits for the heat sensor.

Fire alarm signaling
The alarm is indicated visually (LED steady light) and acoustically (continuous sound) for 5 minutes. Pressing the test/reset button (Fig. 1) during the alarm will clear the alarm condition.

Detector test
If you want to test the operation of the detector, press the test/reset button (Fig. 1). A short sound will be heard. After a few seconds, the fire alarm should be triggered.
Tamper
Opening the enclosure (opening the tamper switch) is treated as a tamper.
Test mode
The test mode makes diagnostics of the detector easier because the detector LED indicates periodical communication and alarm memory. How to start and end the test mode is
described in the ABAX 2 / ABAX controller manual / the INTEGRA 128-WRL control panel manual.
The alarm memory is cleared after ending the test mode.
LED
LED indicates:

• low battery – 3 short flashes every 30 seconds,
• alarm – ON for 5 minutes.

When the ABAX 2 /ABAX system is running in the test mode, the LED indicates additionally:

• periodical communication – short flash (80 milliseconds), and when the chamber is soiled – 2 short flashes,
• the memory of alarm triggered by the smoke sensor – flashing rapidly,
• the memory of alarm triggered by heat sensor – flashing slowly.

Energy-saving mode (ECO)
If you want to prolong the battery life, you can enable in the detector the “ECO” option.
When the “ECO” option is enabled, the periodical communication takes place every 3 minutes. Thus the battery life can be increased as much as fourfold. The option is only available in the ABAX 2 system.
Detection of optical chamber soiling
The detector is monitoring the state of the optical chamber. Deposition of dust in it may lead to malfunctioning of the device. When the optical chamber requires cleaning, this state is indicated by the LED.
Battery status control
When the battery voltage is lower than 2.75 V, the detector indicates a low battery: 3 short flashes of LED and 3 short beeps every 30 seconds. The low battery info is sent during each transmission to the controller/control panel.

Selecting a mounting location

• The detector is designed for indoor installation.
• The detector should be installed in a location close to the building/apartment exit (e.g. in the hall, lobby, etc. – Fig. 2 and Fig. 3).
• In a typical home or office application, the detector should be installed on the ceiling, as close as possible to the center of the room, at a distance of at least 0.5  meters from the walls or other objects (Fig. 4).
• Do not install the detector in places with high concentrations of dust and/or formation and condensation of water steam.
• Do not install the detector near heaters, cookers, fans, or air-conditioner outlets.
• Do not install the detector in places where there is no unobstructed movement of air (e.g. in recesses, niches, etc.).
• It is not advisable to install it in close vicinity of electrical systems, because it can adversely affect the range of radio signal.

Installation

The detector enclosure can not be closed without the battery inserted.
Do not install the battery if the sounder is disconnected.
There is a danger of battery explosion when using a different battery than recommended by the manufacturer, or handling the battery improperly.
Be particularly careful during the installation and replacement of the battery.
The manufacturer is not liable for the consequences of the incorrect installation of the battery.

1. Remove the plastic dust cap.
2. Turn the cover counter-clockwise (Fig. 5) and remove it (Fig.6).
3. Install the battery.
4. Add the detector to the wireless system (see the ABAX 2 / ABAX controller manual or the INTEGRA 128-WRL control panel installer manual). The sticker with a serial number which shall be entered when registering the detector in the system can be found on the enclosure base.
   In the INTEGRA / VERSA alarm system, the detector is identified as ASD-110.
   Simultaneous operation of the detector by the ABAX 2 and ABAX controller / INTEGRA 128-WRL alarm control panel is not possible.
5. Replace the cover.
6. Put the detector at the place of its future installation.
7. Check the level of the signal received from the detector by the ABAX 2 / ABAX controller or the INTEGRA 128-WRL control panel. If the signal level is lower than 40%, select another place for installation. Sometimes, it is sufficient to shift the device ten or twenty centimeters to obtain a considerable improvement in the signal quality. You can also try to turn the enclosure to check what effect the change of antenna position will have on the signal strength.
   The ARF-200 tester makes it possible to check the radio signal strength at the place of future installation without having to put the detector there.
8. Remove the detector cover.
9. Use wall plugs (anchors) and screws to secure the enclosure base to the ceiling. The wall plugs (anchors) delivered with the device are intended for concrete, brick, etc. For other types of surfaces (drywall, styrofoam), use the appropriately selected wall plugs.
10. Replace the detector cover.
11. Press the test/reset button (Fig. 1). A fire alarm should be triggered.
12. If in the premises where the detector is installed, any work is being carried out that may lead to the soiling of the optical chamber, put a plastic dust cover on the detector and leave it there until the work is finished.

Maintenance

The detector should be subjected to regular checks for correct functioning. The periodic checks should be carried out at least every 6 months. To check whether the detector is operating properly, press the test/reset button (Fig. 1). This should trigger a fire alarm.

Cleaning the optical chamber

It is recommended that you have the optical chamber cleaned at least once a year. Cleaning the chamber is necessary when the LED indicates fouling of the chamber (2 short flashes during periodical communication with controller/control panel).

1. Start the service mode in the control panel (if the controller is connected to a SATEL alarm control panel).
2. Turn the cover counter-clockwise (Fig. 5) and remove it (Fig. 6).
3. Remove the battery.
4. Pull aside the mounting catches (Fig. 7) and remove the electronics board with the optical chamber (Fig. 8).
5. Remove the cover from the thermistor (Fig. 9).
6. Pull aside the thermistor and its leads (Fig. 10).
7. Pull aside the mounting catch of the optical chamber (Fig. 11) and remove it (Fig. 12).
   
8. Using a soft brush or compressed air, clean the labyrinth in the cover, as well as the base of the optical chamber, paying attention to the recesses where LEDs are installed.
9. Replace the cover of the optical chamber.
10. Place the thermistor leads in the respective grooves.
11. Replace the thermistor cover.
12. Secure the electronics board with the optical chamber in the cover mounting catches.
    The board must be mounted so that the LED coincides with the light guide.
13. Re-install the battery.
14. Replace the detector cover.
15. Press the test/reset button (Fig. 1). A fire alarm should be triggered.

Battery replacement

The used batteries must not be discarded but should be disposed of in accordance with the existing rules for environmental protection.
When the detector indicates a low battery (3 short flashes of the LED and 3 short beeps every 30 seconds), the battery must be replaced.

1. Start the service mode in the control panel (if the controller is connected to a SATEL alarm control panel).
2. Turn the cover counter-clockwise (Fig. 5) and remove it (Fig. 6).
3. Remove the discharged battery.
4. Install a new CR123A 3 V lithium battery.
5. Replace the detector cover.
6. Press the test/reset button (Fig. 1). A fire alarm should be triggered.
