How to replace FireProtect 2 RB batteries (Heat/Smoke)
The detector is equipped with a siren (piezoelectric buzzer) for sound noti cation of alarms and events with a volume of up to 85 dB (at a distance of 3 m from the detector). The detector is always active and reacts to a re during 24/7, regardless of the system’s security mode.
FireProtect 2 is protected by two tampers. The rst tamper controls the removal of the detector from the SmartBracket mounting panel: the detector reacts with LED indication and sends noti cations to users in Ajax apps and the security company

monitoring station. The second tamper signals the removal of the smoke chamber lid, which is located under the front panel of the detector.
The Ajax automation devices can respond to FireProtect 2 alarms and perform user-de ned actions using automation scenarios. For example, the WallSwitch relay can turn off the ventilation system and turn on emergency lighting when an alarm occurs.
Smoke sensor
FireProtect 2 detects smoke with a bispectral optical sensor. Inside the smoke chamber, the sensor has blue and infrared LEDs which emit light at different wavelengths. This technology allows the detector to determine the size of the volatile particles inside the chamber and respond only to smoke, ignoring vapour and steam.
The smoke chamber in FireProtect 2 is protected from dust, dirt, and insects. Even if dust gets inside and settles, this does not threaten or impair re detection. The optical system is designed to prevent non-volatile particles from getting within the
eld of both blue and infrared LEDs at the same time. So that situation does not cause a false alarm.
The HazeFlow 2 software algorithm also protects against false alarms. When an alarm is detected, the algorithm additionally processes the data received from the detector and con rms the alarm.
Heat sensor
Two built-in class A1 thermistors detect a rapid rise and exceeding the temperature threshold in FireProtect 2. Such thermistors notify of alarms when a rapid temperature rise or static temperature is detected in the range of +54°C to +65°C.
FireProtect 2 will reports that the temperature threshold has been exceeded as soon as its value exceeds +64°C. The detector will reports a rapid temperature rise if the indicator increases by 10°C within one minute. If the temperature indicator rises sharply by 20°C or more, the detector signals immediately.

Test/Mute button
o activate the Test/Mute button, press lightly on the centre of the front panel with your hand. Use a suitable item (mop handle) if you can’t reach up the detector with your hand. Test/Mute is a mechanical button placed under the front panel of the detector.
The button performs several functions:
In normal mode, it starts the detector self-test.
In case of an alarm, it mutes the detector alarm or Interconnected Alarm of all re detectors in the system for 10 minutes.
In case of a fault or low battery level it mutes the sound and LED indication for 12 hours.
Interconnected Fire Detectors Alarms*
All re detectors of the FireProtect 2 product line support the Interconnected Alarm feature. This feature activates the built-in sirens of all re detectors in the system as soon as at least one of the re detectors has detected an alarm. Sirens of FireProtect 2 detectors are activated within 20 seconds after an alarm is detected. The sirens of FireProtect and FireProtect Plus are activated during the detector ping interval set in the Jeweller (or Jeweller/Fibra) settings, but no later than 60 seconds after.
The FireProtect 2 detectors have different sound and LED indications of alarm types to make it easier for users to distinguish between them. In case of interconnected alarm, all FireProtect 2 detectors indicate exactly the alarm type detected by the initiating detector. Instead, FireProtect and FireProtect Plus detectors noti es all types of alarms with the same sound.

Sending events to the monitoring station
The Ajax system can transmit events and alarms to the PRO Desktop monitoring app as well as the Central Monitoring Station (CMS) via SurGard (Contact ID), SIA DC-09 (ADM-CID), ADEMCO 685, and other protocols. The list of supported protocols is available here.
Which CMSs Ajax connects to
Addressability of Ajax devices allows you to send to the PRO Desktop and to the CMS not only events but also the type of the device, the name given to it, virtual room, and security group. The list of transmitted parameters may differ depending on the CMS type and the selected communication protocol.
The ID and detector loop (zone) number are available in the detector States.
Adding to the system

Before adding a device
1. Install the Ajax app. 2. Create an account if you don’t have one. 3. Add a hub compatible with the detector to the app. Set the required settings
and create at least one virtual room. 4. Make sure that the hub is on and has Internet access via Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and/or
mobile network. You can do this in the Ajax app or by looking at the LED indicator of the hub: it should light up white or green.

5. Make sure that the hub does not start updates and that it is disarmed by checking the status in the Ajax app.
A PRO or a user with system setup rights can connect the device to the hub.
To connect to the hub, the detector should be within the coverage area of the hub radio network. To operate via a radio signal range extender, rst connect the detector to the hub and then to the range extender. You can do this in the range extender settings in Ajax apps.
How to connect FireProtect 2 to a hub
1. Open the Ajax app. 2. Select the hub if you have several of them or if you are using the Ajax PRO app. 3. Go to the Devices tab. Press Add Device. 4. Enter the name of the device. 5. Scan the QR code or enter the ID manually. QR code is located on the rear part
of the enclosure (under the mounting panel) and on the device packaging. The device ID can be found below the QR code. 6. Select the virtual room and security group (if the group mode is enabled). 7. Click Add; the countdown will begin.
If the maximum number of devices is added to the hub, when adding the one, you will get a noti cation of exceeding the device limit. The number of devices that you can connect to the hub depends on the central unit model.
8. Turn on the detector by holding the power button for 3 seconds. The hub connection request is sent only if the detector is enabled. If the detector fails to connect to the hub, try again in 5 seconds.

The detector cannot connect to the hub if they operate on different radio frequencies. The radio frequency range of the devices may vary by the region of sale. Please contact technical support for information on the operating frequency range of your devices.
Once connected, FireProtect 2 will appear in the hub device list in the Ajax app. Device status update depends on the ping interval set in the Jeweller or Jeweller/Fibra settings. The default value is 36 seconds.
FireProtect 2 works with only one hub. When connected to a new hub, the detector stops transmitting data to the old hub. Once added to a new hub, FireProtect 2 is not removed from the list of devices of the old hub. This must be done manually in Ajax apps.
Autonomous operation mode
FireProtect 2 detectors can be used autonomously without connecting to an Ajax hub. In this case, the detector noti es of re or smoke with only a built-in siren and LED indication. Users don’t receive noti cations on any Ajax apps, including Ajax Translator, or PRO Desktop. The Interconnected Fire Detectors Alarms feature is also unavailable for this operation mode.
To use the detector autonomously, follow these steps:
1. Select the optimal location of the detector using the recommendations in the Selection of installation place section.
2. Mount the detector on the SmartBracket panel as described in the Installation section.
3. Press the power button to switch on the detector.
4. Start a self-test with the Test/Mute button. Press the centre of the front panel and hold it for 1.5 seconds.
During a self-test FireProtect 2 noti es about each step with a built-in siren and LED indication. Once a self-test is completed, the LED indication turns off, and the detector works autonomously.

In case of an alarm, press the Test/Mute button or eliminate the cause of the alarm to mute the siren.

Battery life optimization setting

The Battery Life Optimization feature is provided to save the detectors’ battery charge. It is available only for hubs on OS Malevich 2.14 or higher with FireProtect 2 detectors connected. This feature is enabled by default. When the Battery Life Optimization feature is enabled, the hub increases the ping interval for FireProtect 2 detectors.
This feature doesn’t affect alarm noti cation delivery time.
To disable the Battery Life Optimization feature: 1. Open the Ajax app. 2. Select the hub with FireProtect 2 detectors connected. 3. Go to: Hub Settings Service Fire Detectors Settings. 4. Disable the Battery Life Optimization toggle. 5. Click Back to save the settings.
If the Battery Life Optimization feature is disabled: FireProtect 2 SB (Heat/Smoke) built-in battery life is 5 years (instead of 10). FireProtect 2 RB (Heat/Smoke) pre-installed battery life is 3.5 years (instead of 7).
Selection of installation place
The detector is designed for indoor installation only.

The coverage area of one FireProtect 2 (Heat/Smoke) is 50 to 60 m², depending on the type of premises. The detector should be installed in every room. The detector is placed in the center of the ceiling at a distance of 30 cm from light xtures, chandeliers, or any other decorative objects that may interfere with alarm detection. If there are beams on the ceiling protruding 30 cm or more, then the detector must be installed between every two such beams. If the beams protrude by less than 30 cm, installation on a beam in the central part of the ceiling is allowed. In halls or narrow corridors, detectors should be installed at a distance of no more than 7.5 m from each other. If the ceiling is sloping, the detector is installed at a distance of 60 cm from the top point of the ceiling. To select an installation place, draw a straight line down from the top of the ceiling. Then, draw a perpendicular from this line to the sloping part of the ceiling. The detector is installed at this point.
We do not recommend mounting the detector on a wall. This installation is acceptable if closely spaced beams or other obstacles interfere with the installation of the detector. Wall mounting is possible only if the detector is placed at a distance of 15­30 cm below the ceiling but above the doorways.

When installing on the wall, ensure the LEDs are visible to the user. It means FireProtect 2 must be installed upside down.
When choosing location of the detector, consider the parameters that affect its operation:
Jeweller signal strength. Distance between the detector and the hub. Presence of barriers for radio signal passage between devices: oor slabs, walls, inter oor ceilings, large objects located in the premise.
Consider the placement recommendations when designing the project of Ajax system for the object. The security system must be designed and installed by specialists. The list of recommended partners is available here.
Signal strength
The Jeweller signal strength is determined by the ratio of the number of undelivered or corrupted data packets that are exchanged between the hub and the detector to expected ones within a certain period of time. Signal strength is indicated by the icon on the Devices tab:
Three bars — excellent signal strength. Two bars — good signal strength. One bar — low signal strength; stable operation is not guaranteed. Crossed out icon — no signal; stable operation is not guaranteed.
Check the Jeweller signal strength at the installation place. If the signal strength is as low as one or zero bars, we cannot guarantee stable operation of the device. In this case, move the device. Repositioning even by 20 cm can signi cantly improve the signal reception.

If after relocation the detector still has a low or unstable signal strength, use a radio signal range extender.
Do not install the detector
1. Outdoors. This can lead to the detector failure.
2. In places with low or unstable Jeweller signal strength. This can result the connection loss.
3. Inside premises with temperature and humidity outside the permissible limits. This could damage the detector.
4. In places with fast air circulation. For example, near fans, vents, open windows, or doors. This may interfere with re detection.
5. Opposite any objects with rapidly changing temperature. For example, electric and gas heaters. This can lead to false alarms.
6. In the corners of the room. This may interfere with re detection.
7. In bathrooms, showers, or other areas where the temperature changes rapidly. This can lead to false alarms.
8. In premises where the generation of gases/vapours/smoke is part of the operating process. For example, in a garage, where the possibility of a detector`s alarm due to vehicle exhaust gases exists. For such premises, we recommend using a detector without a smoke sensor: FireProtect 2 (Heat/CO).
9. In very dusty areas or places with a lot of insects. Insects, dust, and other contaminants can settle on the smoke chamber lid and prevent re detection.
10. Near lighting xtures, decorations, and other interior items that may interfere with the circulation of air in the premise. This may interfere with re detection.
11. On surfaces that are usually warmer or colder than the rest of the premise. For example, roof traps. Temperature uctuations can interfere with re detection.
12. In high or inconvenient places. Access to the Test/Mute button is required to mute the alarm and test the detector if it’s used without connection to a hub.

Installation

Make sure that you have selected the optimal installation place, and it complies with the requirements of this manual. Don’t remove the smoke chamber lid during installation. The smoke chamber lid can be removed when the enclosure is disassembled completely. The system identi es this event as a malfunction and the detector reacts with an audible signal. Users and the security company receive a malfunction noti cation.
Only a competent specialist should install this device.
To install the detector:
1. Remove the SmartBracket mounting panel from the detector. To remove the panel, turn it counterclockwise.
2. Fix the SmartBracket panel to a surface using double-sided adhesive tape or other temporary fasteners. The mounting panel has an UP sign, which indicates the correct position.
Use double-sided adhesive tape for temporary xation only. The device xed by the adhesive tape can peel off the surface at any time, which can lead to damage if the device is dropped.
3. Run the Jeweller signal strength test. The recommended value is two or three bars. If the signal strength is a single bar or lower, we cannot guarantee the stable operation of the detector. Consider to relocate the device as repositioning even by 20 cm can signi cantly improve the signal strength. If there is still low or unstable signal after the relocation, use a radio signal range extender.

4. Remove the detector from the mounting panel. 5. Attach the SmartBracket panel with the bundled screws using all xation
points. When using other fasteners, make sure they do not damage or deform the mounting panel. 6. Place the detector on the SmartBracket mounting panel. 7. Adjust the position of the detector if necessary.

Actions to take in case of Fire alarm (Smoke/Heat)
NEVER IGNORE THE ALARM! Assume that it is a real re alarm, and you have to evacuate from the premises immediately, even if you doubt about the cause of the alarm signal.
1. Don’t open the doors if you feel heat or smoke behind them. Check other entries and use an alternative way to escape. Close all doors behind you as you leave.
If heavy smoke enters a room, stay close to the oor and crawl out. If possible, breathe through a wet cloth or hold your breath. Please note that more people die because of smoke inhalation than re.
2. Evacuate as quickly as you can, don’t panic. Save time, and don’t pack your things. Arrange a meeting place outside for everybody in the building. Check if everyone got out safely.
3. Call the re department immediately by yourself or ask someone nearby. Remember, even the smallest re can spread quickly, so do not hesitate to call the re department. Call the re department even if the alarm is automatically transmitted to a monitoring station.

NEVER come back to the house on re.
Malfunctions
If FireProtect 2 malfunction is detected (for example, there is no connection with the hub), the malfunction counter is displayed in the device eld in the Ajax apps. All malfunctions are displayed in the detector States. Fields with malfunctions are highlighted in red. The device can report malfunctions to the CMS, as well as to users through push noti cations and SMS. FireProtect 2 (Heat/Smoke) malfunctions:
There is no connection with the hub or radio signal range extender. The detector`s enclosure is open. Low battery charge level. Hardware malfunction (failure of one or more sensors of the detector).

Maintenance

The detector has a self-test system and does not require the user or installer intervention. The smoke chamber is protected from dust and insects, so there is no need to clean it. We recommend running a self-test periodically to familiarize people with the alarm sound and LED indication.
FireProtect 2 devices connected to the Ajax hubs generally do not require routine testing. All connected devices are constantly monitored for possible Faults, Low battery, and EOL signals.
However, we encourage all users to test FireProtect 2 devices periodically (monthly) to allow residents of the building to become familiar with the re alarm signals of the system.
Please be aware that your local regulation might require more frequent testing (e.g., weekly).
Clean the detector enclosure of dust, cobwebs, and other contaminants as they appear. Use a soft dry cloth suitable for equipment care. Do not use substances that contain alcohol, acetone, gasoline, and other active solvents.
The service life of the detector is 10 years. After this period, the sensitivity of the sensors decreases. We recommend replacing the detector with a new one to ensure uninterrupted re protection at the premises.
The version of the detector with replaceable batteries (has RB in the name) operates from pre-installed to detector batteries for up to 7 years. When the batteries are discharged, replace them with new ones.
How to replace FireProtect 2 RB batteries (Heat/Smoke)
A detector with sealed batteries (has SB in the name) should be replaced with a new one after the batteries are discharged.

Ensure the batteries are installed with the correct polarity. The polarity is marked inside the enclosure. Please run a self-test with Ajax apps or by pressing the Test/Mute button after the batteries are replaced to check the correct operation of the detector.
