  • Amber = Signals maintenance and/or trouble events
  • Red = Signals CO Alarm conditions

• Side LED [C] Light Ring to indicate a CO alarm:

  • Blue = CO alarm

ENROLLING

Each Carbon Monoxide (CO) detector has unique data (serial number) that is used for enrollment in separate zones. The detector must be enrolled in the Control Panel beforeit can be used. Registration and programming are conducted through the AlarmNet 360™ cloud-based management platform. The detector automatically enrolls as a CO device with a CO “Response” type. To enroll the detector, perform the following:

1. From AlarmNet 360:

   • Select “SENSORS”
   • Select “ADD SENSOR”
   • Select “LEARN” and wait for the Control Panel to be in learning mode.
     Note: For detailed programming instructions refer to the Installation Instructions for the Control Panel with which this device is used.

2. Rotate the cover of the detector 15 degrees counterclockwise and remove it from the mounting bracket.

3. Carefully remove (and discard responsibly) the battery tab [A] to activate the detector and begin the enrollment process for the detected zone. (If already powered, press the Test button [B] for less than 3 seconds to enroll).

4. The detector attempts enrollment.

   • The LED [C] flashes green rapidly during enrollment (for up to 20 seconds).
   • The detector sends data to the Control Panel to register the device.
     Note: Enrollment time varies depending on the signal strength between the detector and the panel.

5. Enrollment is confirmed when the LED is on steady green for 3 seconds.

Note: CO End-of-Life is automatically enrolled for the respective CO zones. Upon this condition, a “Carbon Monoxide End-of-Life” message is sent for the respective zone.

Supervision: Detector supervision is factory set for 120 minutes and is not programmable. If the detector is not successfully registered during the enrollment period, the LED will go out and the device will be turned off. Activate the tamper or press the Test button to restart the enrollment process.

SILENCE THE DETECTOR

If it has been determined that the surrounding area is safe from carbon monoxide leakage, and you want to silence the CO alarm feature, perform the following:
WARNING: Prior to silencing the detector, you should always assume the alarm is due to dangerous levels of carbon monoxide and the dwelling should be evacuated.
Note: The detector can only be silenced one time per event.

1. Press the Test button or disarm the system at the Control Panel.
2. The detector will sound again after 5 minutes if the alarm condition has not been resolved.
3. When programmed in one-go-all-go mode, all programmed detectors can only be silenced from the panel.
   If the alarm fails to operate correctly, please contact the manufacturer for corrective action.

MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS

During installation, please ensure that all country-specific regulations and guidelines are followed. If in doubt, verify all mounting considerations with your local Fire Service.
Note: Before mounting the detector permanently, conduct a sensor test (see the Control Panel instructions) to verify adequate signal strength and adjust the device location and orientation as necessary with the red LED facing towards the escape route.
The detector can be mounted on a wall or ceiling.

• Carbon monoxide is slightly lighter than air. As a result, CO gas may be contained in warm rising air and a central ceiling position or wall position (away from damp/humid locations, dust vents/fans, doors/windows, etc.) are recommended locations. The detector must be mounted away from any “Dead Air Space” corners [A].
• Mount the detector at least 30 cm from walls and corners [B].
• Mount the detector 30-60 cm from the apex of the ceiling [C].
• If ceiling mounting is impractical, CO detectors can also be mounted on a wall, provided the top of the detector is between 15 and 30 cm below ceiling [D] and the bottom is at least 150 cm above the floor [E].

IMPORTANT! Do not attach the detector to removable ceiling panels. Attach the detector across panel support.

MOUNTING LOCATION GUIDELINES

Early warning CO detection is best achieved by the installation of CO detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as follows:

• For minimum protection a CO detector should be installed in each separate sleeping area, in every room and on each additional floor of a multi-floor family living unit, including basements.
• It is recommended that you install CO detectors in the any rooms above attached garages.
• Install CO detectors in the room where the alarm control panel is located.
• Installation of CO detectors in kitchens or in garages is not normally recommended.
• Install CO detectors between 1m–3m from all potential sources of carbon monoxide (fuel burning appliances).
• If there is a partition in the room, mount the detector on the same side of the partition as the potential source.
• If installed in rooms with sloped ceilings, the CO detectors should be located at the high side of the room.

• Smoke Detector S
• Heat Detector H
• CO Detector CO
• No Detector X

MOUNTING
After enrolling and before mounting permanently, conduct Sensor test to verify adequate signal strength with the detector in its intended mounting location (refer to the Control Panel instructions).
Note: The detector contains battery indicator tabs, which prevent installation on the rear mounting bracket unless all batteries are installed. If one of the batteries is missing or not properly seated the detector will start to display “low battery” soon after installation.

1. For either wall-mounting or ceiling-mounting, adjust the device location and orientation as necessary so that the LED [1] is facing towards the escape route.

2. Secure the rear mounting plate [2] to the ceiling or wall with two screws [3].
   Note: The directional arrows on the detector [4] and the mounting bracket [5] need to be aligned with each other and facing in a direction that will allow the Test button to be easily accessible and the LED to face towards the escape route.

3. Install the detector on the mounting bracket and rotate the detector 15 degrees clockwise to lock in place.

4. After installation, wait approximately five minutes for the detector to calibrate before performing a self-test.

PROGRAMMING
Consult the Control Panel instructions to program the device in the system. This detector reports the following signals to the panel:

• CO detection: Alarm sounds when a specified level of CO is detected.
• Tamper mode: The detector cover is tamper-proof to prevent unauthorized removal from its base.
• One-Go-All-Go: all detectors in the system that are programmed as one-go-all-go devices will sound on alarm.
• Supervision: according to Control Panel configuration and not editable.

WARNING
If the CO detector is signaling an alarm condition, assume it has detected a high level of carbon monoxide, maintain calmness, and perform the following actions in order:

• Open all doors and windows to increase the rate of ventilation.
• Stop using all fuel-burning appliances and turn them off where possible.
• If the interconnected CO detector continues, then evacuate the premises.
• Leave the doors and windows open, and only re-enter the building when the alarm has stopped.
• Get medical help for anyone suffering the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning, such as headache or nausea, and advise that carbon monoxide inhalation is suspected.
• Telephone the gas or other fuel supplier on their emergency number, so that the source of carbon monoxide emissions can be identified and corrected.
• Do not use the fuel-burning appliances again until they have been checked and cleared for use by a competent person according to national regulations.

Note: There may be another source of carbon monoxide emission apart from fuel-burning appliances, for example a large amount of tobacco smoke, town gas, or emission from a smoldering fire. Do not use any combustion appliances until they have been checked by a qualified person.

Health Effects of Carbon Monoxide

IMPORTANT: If your carbon monoxide alarm sounds, or you suspect you are experiencing symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning, you should immediately evacuate the area to get some fresh air and call your emergency contact number.
The effects of carbon monoxide on the human body are as follows (PPM = parts per million) :

• ~ – 100 PPM: Slight headache, flushing of skin (indefinite exposure).
• 200 – 300 PPM: Headache (5–6-hour exposure)
• 400 – 600 PPM: Severe headache, weakness, dizziness, nausea, vomiting (4–5-hour exposure)
• 1100 – 1500 PPM: Increased pulse and breathing rate, syncope (fainting), coma, intermittent seizures (4–5-hour exposure)
• 5000 – 10000 PPM: Weak pulse, depressed respiration/respiratory failure, death (1-2 minutes exposure)

Note: This CO alarm may not prevent the chronic effects associated with carbon monoxide exposure and will not fully safeguard individuals at special risk.

Material/Vapor Effects on CO Detector Reliability
The reliability of CO detectors can be adversely affected by some materials and vapors that are present in many commonly used items.
Exposure to the fumes from common household products such as paints and paint thinners, adhesives, hair sprays, strong perfumes, plug-in and aerosol air fresheners, and household cleaning solvents with strong odors may cause a CO detector to render a false alarm. Be sure to store and use these materials away from your CO detectors or in well-ventilated areas.
