A LOW BATTERY OR OTHER CONDITION CHANGES MAY CAUSE POOR PERFORMANCE OF THE HAZARD DETECTOR AND/OR SIREN DETECTOR.ONCE SIREN DETECTORS ARE INSTALLED, TESTING THE SIRENS WITH EXISTING HAZARD DETECTORS MAY RESULT IN A FIRE OR CARBON MONOXIDE MESSAGE BEING SENT TO THE MONITORING CENTER, RESULTING IN AN EMERGENCY DISPATCH TO YOUR PREMISES. THERE ARE TWO OPTIONS TO AVOID THIS SITUATION.OPTION A. TEMPORARILY DISABLE THE MONITORING OF YOUR SYSTEM THROUGH YOUR MY INGRID WEB PORTAL ACCOUNT PRIOR TO TESTING THE HAZARD DETECTORS. RE-ENABLE MONITORING AFTER YOU HAVE COMPLETED TESTING.OPTION B. ON THE HANDSET OR CONSOLE, PUT THE SYSTEM INTO "SENSOR TEST" MODE (UTILITIES -> SYSTEM TEST -> SENSOR TEST ) PRIOR TO TESTING THE HAZARD DETECTORS. THE SYSTEM WILL RETURN TO NORMAL OPERATION WHEN THE TEST IS COMPLETED.
Select The “Target” Hazard Detector(s)Prior to adding a Siren Detector it is necessary to first install and activate your InGrid System and to have a Handset and/or Console available for use in the Siren Detector installation process.Important:THE INGRID MODEL SDC1000 SIREN DETECTOR DOES NOT DETECT THE EXISTENCE OF HAZARDS SUCH AS FIRE, SMOKE, OR CARBON MONOXIDE. INSTEAD, IT MONITORS FOR AND DETECTS THE SOUND OF HAZARD DETECTOR SIRENS THAT FEATURE ALL FOUR OF THE FOLLOWING CHARACTERISTICS: 1. ARE LOCATED WITHIN 4 INCHES OF THE SIREN DETECTOR, 2. ARE MANUFACTURED IN THE LAST 10 YEARS IN ACCORDANCE WITH UL985 INDUSTRY STANDARDS, 3. CREATE SOUND VOLUME OF AT LEAST 85 DBA AT 10 FEET AT 3000 HZ, AND 4. SOUND FOR AT LEAST 20 CONTINUOUS SECONDS. WHILE MOST HAZARD DETECTORS LESS THAN 10 YEARS OLD MEET THESE REQUIREMENTS, SIREN DETECTOR USERS ARE EXPECTED TO SUCCESSFULLY TEST THE SIREN DETECTOR TOGETHER WITH THE HAZARD DETECTOR AT LEAST TWICE PER YEAR. IF A SIREN DETECTOR DOES NOT SUCCESSFULLY RESPOND TO A HAZARD DETECTOR SIREN DURING A TEST, IT MUST NOT BE RELIED UPON TO DETECT A SIREN DURING AN ACTUAL HAZARD CONDITION. THE NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION (NFPA) RECOMMENDS REPLACEMENT OF HAZARD DETECTORS THAT ARE 10 YEARS (OR MORE) OLD SINCE THE INTERNAL ELECTRONICS MAY NO LONGER RELIABLY DETECT HAZARDS. USERS ARE EXPECTED TO REPLACE HAZARD DETECTOR BATTERIES AT LEAST ONCE PER YEAR SO THAT THE ELECTRONICS (INCLUDING THE SIREN) OPERATE PROPERLY DURING A HAZARD CONDITION.Important:IF HAZARD DETECTORS ARE INTERCONNECTED WITHIN A PROTECTED PREMISES, ONE HAZARD DETECTOR MAY SOUND ITS SIREN BASED UPON A SIGNAL RECEIVED FROM ANOTHER INTERCON-NECTED HAZARD DETECTOR. IN THIS MANNER, ONE SIREN DETECTOR MAY BE USEFUL FOR MONITORING HAZARDS REPORTED BY MORE THAN ONE HAZARD DETECTOR. DETERMINE IF ONE OR MORE HAZARD DETECTORS ARE INTERCONNECTED BY PRESSING AND HOLDING THE TEST BUTTON ON ONE HAZARD DETECTOR FOR AT LEAST 30 SECONDS. IF SIRENS ON OTHER HAZARD DETECTORS SOUND DURING THIS TEST, THESE OTHER HAZARD DETECTORS ARE INTERCONNECTED. IF HAZARD DETECTORS IN THE PROTECTED PREMISES ARE NOT INTERCON-NECTED, A SIREN DETECTOR IS REQUIRED FOR EACH EXISTING HAZARD DETECTOR IN THE PROTECTED PREMISES THAT NEEDS TO BE MONITORED. THE USE OF AT LEAST TWO (2) INDIVIDUAL SIREN DETECTORS (MONITORING TWO INDIVIDUAL HAZARD DETECTORS) IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED, REGARDLESS OF THE EXISTING HAZARD DETECTOR INSTALLATION TYPE.Important:AFTER REMOVING THE BATTERY INSULATOR TAB, PRESS DOWN ON THE TOP OF THE BATTERY TO MAKE SURE IT HAS NOT BEEN DISLODGED IN THE PROCESS OF REMOVING THE TAB.  IntroductionInstalling Your InGrid Siren DetectorSiren Detector Kit ContentsLocate and remove the Installation Template on the bottom of the Siren Detector box.Place the Installation Template directly next to the (existing) hazard detector so that the large curved side of the template rests against the outer edge of the hazard detector. Using a pencil or pen, mark the location of the two (screw) hole openings in the template on the ceiling.  These marks will be used as a mounting location reference in the next step.Select And Mark The Bracket Mounting LocationMount The Siren Detector 3Install The Siren Detector Bracket4Remove The Siren Detector Bracket251Siren Detectors operate in tandem with existing home hazard detectors. A “hazard detector” is a device which monitors the home environment for the existence of a hazard condition, such as smoke, fire or carbon monoxide. Hazard detectors utilize internal electronics to sample the surrounding air and monitor for conditions that indicate the occurrence of the targeted hazard. If a hazard condition is sensed, the device typically responds with a visual and/or siren alert.InGrid Siren Detectors operate differently.  InGrid Siren Detectors are designed to monitor for the occurrence of siren sounds coming from a nearby hazard detector.  When they detect the siren sound of a hazard detector (located no more than 4 inches away) and the sound meets certain pre-determined audio requirements, the Siren Detector will report this event back to the InGrid system.  Upon receiving the siren detection message, the InGrid system will sound an audio alert on all pre-programmed audio alert devices and (if the InGrid system is actively monitored under a current service plan and is connected to an operating telecommunications circuit) will send a corresponding message to the monitoring center.  This message will be based upon the type of hazard detector for which the siren detector has been configured ("Fire/Smoke" or "Both" setting - a fire alarm message will be sent, "Carbon Monoxide" - a carbon monoxide message will be sent).SDC1000 Siren Detector #6 screw (2) and wall anchor (2)Device GuideCR2450 batteryChoose which existing hazard detector(s) in your home you would like to have monitored. NOTE:  Siren Detectors are designed to be mounted within 4 inches of an existing hazard detector and may not operate properly if mounted farther away.Turn the Siren Detector over and press the Bracket release tab while gently pulling the bracket away from the device.
