Loca on of LEDs and Learn/Test Bu on HoleThe device should be tested in accordance with NFPA 72 guidelines. The followinginstruc ons are intended to provide a general guideline on how to test the smoke alarm system, wireless smoke alarm interconnect base and communica ons to an alarm panel.Follow the smoke alarm instruc on manual on tes ng the smoke alarm and any interconnected units. There usually is a test bu on on the smoke alarm that can be pressed to ini ate a test mode. This should cause the sounder to alarm and also any smoke alarms that are interconnected to also alarm.The interconnect base should send out a transmission to a compa ble alarm panel. If this transmission is not received,  rst check if the Smoke alarm is properly programmed into a compa ble alarm panel. Please follow the alarm panel instruc ons on learning in a sensor.Also, check that the interconnect wire on the smoke alarm is properly connected to the Wireless Smoke Alarm Interconnect Base. The LEDs on the interconnect base should  ash red indica ng that it has received the alarm signal from the smoke alarm . Testing the Wireless Smoke Alarm Interconnect Base Radio Trans-mission OnlyThe Wireless Interconnect Base incorporates a small test bu on. This test bu on can be ac vated by inser ng a straightened paper clip or sharp object into the Learn/Test hole. The Smoke Detector Sensor will then send an alarm signal transmission to a compa ble alarm panel. This can be used to test that the Wireless Smoke Alarm Interconnect Base will send a proper transmission to an alarm panel. This DOES NOT test if the wiring between the smoke alarm and the interconnect base is correct.Troubleshooting Installation ChartWhen tes ng the Wireless Smoke Alarm Interconnect Base sensor, check for these common issues.ConditionSmoke AlarmResult ResolutionWireless Smoke Alarm Interconnect Base LEDAlarm PanelSmoke detector is in alarm modeLED on interconnect base do not work properlyAlarm panel does not receive alarm signalsCheck to make sure interconnect wire from the smoke alarm is properly connected to the interconnect baseSmoke detector is in alarm modeLED on interconnect base sensor works properlyAlarm panel does not receive alarm signalsCheck to make sure the interconnect base is properly learned or programmed into a compatible alarm panelEXISTING POWER PIGTAILWIRETAPS (3)CRIMPED TO PRIMARYCIRCUIT WIRESWIRING CODE:• BLACK TO BLACK (120 VAC)• WHITE TO WHITE (NEUTRAL)• YELLOW TO YELLOW OR ORANGE (INTERCONNECT)PRIMARY POWERWIRINGWHT/WHT (NEUTRAL)BLK/BLK (120VAC)YEL/YEL ORYEL/ORANGE+CR20323VMOVE TOFRESH AIRSMOKE+CR20323VSTEP 1PULL OUTBATTERY TRAYWITH FLATHEADSCREWDRIVERSTEP 2INSERT BATTERY + POLARITYFACING UPWIRELESS SMOKE ALARMINTERCONNECT BASESMOKE ALARM LEDS ON WIRELESS SMOKEALARM INTERCONNECT BASELEARN/TEST BUTTONHOLE1.
