GENERAL INFORMATION
The Wireless Smoke Alarm Interconnect Base part number 51000-300 is a 120V AC
powered sensor. It monitors the interconnect line on interconnected hardwired smoke
alarm systems and sends out a transmission when any of the smoke alarm units on the
same circuit enter an alarm state. The device has LEDs to visually indicate the status of the
interconnect base. A single CR2032 ba�ery provides backup power in the event that AC
power is lost on the alarm system circuit. The Wireless Smoke Alarm Interconnect Base
communicates with a compa�ble control panel and can send alarm, low ba�ery, AC power
loss, and supervisory messages to the system's receiver.

Figure 8. Wiretap Connec�ons
Wiring the Connections
Before connec�ng the wires from the interconnect base, iden�fy the (+) line (hot)
120VAC wire and the neutral wire. Usually the (+) line (hot) 120VAC wire will be black
and the neutral wire white. Use a voltmeter or voltage sensor to verify that the proper
wires are selected. You may need to reconnect power to the electrical circuit powering
the interconnected hardwired smoke detectors in order to do this (Figure 8).
WARNING: Remember to disconnect or shut off electrical power to the interconnected
hardwired smoke detector if it was powered on in the previous step to iden�fy the
120VAC wires.
Use an electrician’s linesman plier or equivalent tool (See Figure 8) and using the installed
wiretaps on the device, crimp the wiretap with the black wire onto the 120VAC line
(hot) wire.
ATTENTION : Ne pas oublier de déconnecter ou couper le courant électrique pour le
détecteur de fumée câblé s’il avait été alimenté auparavant pour iden�er les ls 120 AC.
U�liser une pince d’électricien ou un ou�l équivalent (voir image 8) et en u�lisant les
connecteurs installés sur l’appareil, ser�r le connecteur avec le l noir sur la ligne 120VAC
(posi�f).
✓ NOTE: Wiretaps must be used on a sec�on of stranded wire. This is typically located
between the connector to the smoke detector and the wire nut.
The wiretap with the yellow wire should be a�ached to the wire lead connected to the
interconnect wire of the smoke detector. This wire is typically yellow or orange.
Once all (3) three wiretaps have been installed (Figure 8), rea�ach the electrical wire
pigtail to the back of the smoke detector unit and mount the smoke alarm on the
moun�ng base (Refer to Figure 3).

The device should be tested in accordance with NFPA 72 guidelines. The following
instruc�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

ALARM INTERCONNECT BASE
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 Transmission Only
The 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.
