Register the Transmitter
To ensure that the detector is supervised by the system receiver, you must
register its transmitter with the system receiver. Each detector has a unique
factory-programmed identification number. Refer to the receiver, network
coordinator, or control panel installation instructions for details on
registering a transmitter.
Open the detector-transmitter housing. Refer to Section 1.0 on page 1.

When prompted to reset the detector, press the Reset button. Refer to

Test the Detector
To avoid a fire department dispatch, contact the central
monitoring station or, if possible, put the system into sensor
test mode.
You can test the smoke detector sensor in two ways: the sensitivity test and
the smoke test. Perform the sensitivity test every week, and perform the
smoke test at least once a year. Both tests activate the alarm sounder and
send alarm signals.
The smoke detector should also be tested after initial registration, as well as
each time the smoke chamber is changed or the batteries are replaced.
6.1
Smoke Test
Test smoke sensors annually using aerosol simulated smoke.
The LED illuminates while the built-in transmitter sends an alarm signal, and
the sensor produces a three-beep pattern until you press the Test/Silence
button (Figure 5). The sensor automatically resets when smoke is no longer
present. A sensor that fails to activate might require cleaning. If a sensor still
fails to activate after cleaning, return the unit for service.

Sensitivity Test
Press and hold the Test/Silence button for 4 sec, then release it. The LED
flashes correspond to the sensor's sensitivity.
Flashes
Sensor Condition/Action
1
Self-diagnostics failure. Return sensor for service/replacement.
2 - 3
The sensor is becoming insensitive. Clean the sensor (refer to
Section 7.1) and repeat the test. If the error persists, replace
the sensor.
4 - 7
The sensor is within the normal sensitivity range.
8 - 9
The sensor is becoming too sensitive. Verify that the smoke
chamber is snapped down securely. Clean the sensor and
repeat the test.
During this test, the control panel, serial receiver, or network coordinator
should receive an alarm and a low battery signal (if LOW BAT is selected),
followed a few seconds later by a restoral.
If the control device does not respond, it is possible the smoke detector
failed to reset properly when the batteries were installed. To force a reset,
remove the batteries from the smoke detector for at least 30 sec, reinstall
them, press the RESET button, and then repeat the test as described above.

Clean the Smoke Detector
Clean the sensor cover with a dry or damp cloth as needed to keep it free of
dust and dirt. Clean the sensor interior and replace the optical chamber at
least once each year. Use only ESL Model 211 optical chambers for
replacement. To clean the sensor chamber:
1.
Remove the sensor body from the mounting base.
2.
Remove the batteries.
3.
Slide a flat-blade screwdriver into the slot on the sensor cap and gently
push the handle down to pry the cap off.
Squeeze the optical chamber where indicated on the chamber and pull
4.
it up and away from the sensor. Then discard the optical chamber.
5.
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt from the smoke
chamber base.
6.
Align the new optical chamber with the base and snap it into place.
7.
Replace the sensor cap.
8.
Reinstall the batteries.
9.
Replace the battery cover.
The base does not fit properly if the batteries are not
installed.
Reattach the sensor to the mounting base.
