1183 Series Wireless Heat Detector
Description
The 1183 Series wireless heat detectors are used with DMP 1100 Series Wireless Receivers. The 1183 Series is
available in two models: 1183-135F and 1183-135R.
The 1183-135F is a xed temperature detector that reacts to heat by responding to the xed 135° temperature
setting. When activated, an alarm is sent to the control panel. The 1183-135F model has a black dot on the heat
collector n for identication.
The 1183-135R model is a combination rate-of-rise and xed temperature detector that detects heat quickly by
responding to a rapid temperature increase or a xed 135° temperature setting. The element responds to a rapid
rise in temperature and sends an alarm to the control panel when the ceiling temperature increases at a minimum
rate of 15°F per minute. An alarm is also sent
to the panel if the ceiling temperature reaches
the xed 135° setting if the rate-of-rise is not
exceeded.
Compatibility
All DMP 1100 Series Wireless Receivers and Panels
What is Included
The 1183 Wireless Heat Detector package includes
the following items:
• One 1183-135F Heat Detector with DMP
wireless transmitter installed
OR
• One 1183-135R Heat Detector with DMP
wireless transmitter installed
AND
• One 3V lithium CR123A battery
• Hardware pack
• Zone name and number label
• Serial number labels
Transmitter Serial Number
For your convenience, an additional pre-printed serial number label is included. Prior to installing the device,
record the serial number or place the pre-printed serial number label on the panel programming sheet. This number
is required during programming. As needed, use the zone name and number label to identify a specic transmitter.
Programming the Transmitter in the Panel
Locate and record the detector serial number. This number is required during programming. Program the device as
a FIRE type zone in Zone Information during panel programming. At the Serial Number: prompt, enter the eight-
digit serial number. Continue to program the zone as directed in the panel programming guide.
Note: When a receiver is installed, powered up, or the panel is reset, the supervision time for transmitters is reset.
If the receiver has been powered down for more than one hour, wireless transmitters may take up to an additional
hour to send a supervision message unless tripped, tampered, or powered up. This operation extends battery life for
transmitters. A missing message may display on the keypad until the transmitter sends a supervision message.
Transmitted Signal Outputs
The heat detector provides the signals listed in the table:

Heat Collector Fin
The 1183 Series heat detectors use a heat collector n (See Figure 1) to detect temperature changes.
The n is spring loaded and sensitive to handling. Do not set the detector on the collector n or
put pressure on the n while handling as this could cause damage to the internal operation.

Selecting the Proper Location
(LED Survey Operation)
For optimum wireless performance, install the transmitter away from large metal objects. Mounting the transmitter
on or near metal surfaces impairs performance. The 1183 Series transmitters provide a survey capability to allow
one person to conrm transmitter communication with the receiver. The 1183 transmitter PCB Red Survey LED
turns on whenever data is sent to the receiver then immediately turns off when the receiver acknowledgement is
received. The survey button is located within the battery compartment and the transmitter survey LED can be seen
near the survey button location. When the transmitter does not receive an acknowledgement from the receiver
the LED remains on for about 8 seconds to let you know communication is not established. Communication is also
faulty when the LED blinks multiple times in quick succession. Relocate the transmitter or receiver until the LED
immediately turns off indicating the transmitter and receiver are
communicating properly.
Test the communication between the control panel and the detector
before permanently mounting the detector as follows:
1. Program the transmitter into the panel. See Programming
Transmitter in the Panel. Install the battery.
Note: Survey operation requires that the detector have the mounting
base installed to engage the tamper switch.
2. Hold the detector up in the location where you plan to install it.
3. Press the survey button (See Figure 2) to send data to the receiver
to conrm operation.
General Location Guidelines
In addition to NFPA 72, use the following location guidelines to optimize performance and reduce the chance of false
alarms from the detector:
•
Locate ceiling-mounted detectors in the center of a room or hallway at least 4 inches from any walls or partitions
• Locate wall-mounted heat detectors so the top of the detector is 4 to 12 inches below the ceiling
• Mount the detector on a rm permanent surface
•
Locate the detector in environmentally controlled areas where the temperature does not exceed 100° F (7.8° C).
• In rooms with sloped, peaked, or gabled ceilings, locate detectors 3 feet (.9 meters) down or away from the
highest point of the ceiling
• When mounting to suspended ceiling tile, the tile must be secured with the appropriate fastener to prevent
tile removal
Installing the Detector
Note: When setting up a wireless system, it is recommended
to program zones and connect the wireless receiver before
installing batteries in the transmitters.
Install the Mounting Base
1. Using the two screws provided, mount the base in the
location previously surveyed for proper communication.
Attaching and Removing the Detector
1. Using the alignment notch on the lip of the mounting
base as a guide, align the detector with the alignment
tabs.
2. Insert the detector into the mounting base and turn
clockwise approximately 15 degrees. It should snap
rmly into place.
To remove the detector from the mounting base, grasp the
detector and turn it counterclockwise approximately 15
degrees. The detector should snap off of the mounting base.

Installing or Replacing the Batteries
Observe polarity when installing the battery. Use only 3.0V lithium batteries, DMP Model CR123-FIRE or Panasonic
Model CR123A.
Note: When setting up a wireless system, it is
recommended to program zones and connect
the receiver before installing batteries in the
transmitters.
1. Slide the battery compartment cover away
from the detector to unsnap it and lift it off.
See Figure 4.
2. If replacing the battery, remove the old
battery and dispose of them properly.
3. Observing correct polarity, insert the new 3V
lithium battery into the battery compartment
and replace the cover. Use only new
batteries when replacing old ones.
4. Reattach the detector to the mounting base.
See Attaching and Removing the Detector.
5. Test the detector. See Testing the Detector.
Caution: Properly dispose of used batteries. Do not recharge, disassemble, heat above 212°F (100°C), or
incinerate. Risk of re, explosion, and burns.
Testing the Detector Alarm
The 1183 Series detectors provide a test button to verify the detector operation.
1. To test the detector, rst enable Walk Test operation on the control
panel. If the system is monitored, the system sends a System Test Begin
report (System message S66) to the central station.
To conduct the Walk Test, reset the control panel by momentarily
placing a jumper on J16. From the keypad, enter the code 8144. The
keypad displays WALK TEST. Refer to the panel programming guide for
complete information on Walk Test operation.
2. For the XTL or XT30/XT50 Series panels, select STD (Standard Walk Test).
For the XR100/XR500 Series panels, select FI (Fire zones). A sensor reset
occurs after each detector tested.
3. Remove the cover over the test button opening and insert a small
screwdriver in the test button opening and press the test button. The
detector sends an alarm signal to the control panel. Verify that the walk
test trip counter increments to indicate a successful test. Once testing
is completed, replace the cover over the test button opening.
4. Select END to stop the Walk Test. When the Walk Test ends or a
20-minute time-out expires, a nal Sensor Reset occurs. The System Test
End message (System message S67) is sent to the central station along
with verify and fail messages for each zone under test. Faulted zones
then display on the keypad.
Important: The control panel alarm and all auxiliary functions should be veried for a complete test of the system.
See the panel programming guide for additional information.
