P/N IM-300 Rev. E  2010 Commercial Wireless Systems International, LLC  4Alarm Operation: When  the  detector  senses  smoke  (325)  or  heat  (325/320)  the  Red  LED  flashes  once  a second, the  internal sounder turns on in the  temporal pattern (325 Only) and the  following occurs: 1. An initial alarm signal is transmitted. 2. A 60 second delay occurs. If during this delay the alarm condition is reset, a restore     signal is sent ending the alarm cycle. 3. The continued alarm condition causes a repeat alarm transmission. 4. Another 60 second delay as in step 2 occurs. 5. Step 4 repeats at 60 second intervals until reset.  Alarm Testing Detectors  must  be  tested  after  installation  and  following  maintenance  or  batteries replacement. NOTE:  Before testing, notify the proper authorities that maintenance  is being  performed  and  the  system  will  be  temporarily  out  of  service.  Place  the  CP-3500D  control  panel  in  test  to  prevent  any  unwanted  alarms  (refer  to  the  CP-3500D manual). Perform tests A and B and C below to properly test the 325 detector. Perform test C only for the 320 detector. If a detector fails any of the tests below, it should be cleaned as outlined in the Maintenance section. If the detector still fails, it should be replaced.   A. Test Switch Note: This test will only function if the detector is operating within its proper sensitivity limits and is not in a low battery condition. The purpose of  this test is  to check  the functionality of  the circuitry.  It will not cause an alarm signal to be transmitted.  1. The test button is located on the detector housing. (Figure 3)  2. Push and hold the test button for a minimum of 5 seconds.  3. If the detector is within the listed sensitivity limits, the following will occur:   a. The Red LED will flash   b. The sounder activates with the temporal pattern.  4. Perform step B below.  B. Smoke Entry Test Note: This test will cause an alarm signal to be transmitted. Wait at least two minutes after power up before performing this test.  1. Hold a smoldering punk  stick or cotton  wick at the side  of the detector and gently blow smoke  through  the  detector  until  the  unit  alarms.  Canned  aerosol  is  also  an  acceptable method   2. Verify the alarm signal was received at the control panel.   C. Direct Heat Test 1. Using a  hair dryer or  heat gun, direct  the  heat  toward the  thermistor,  holding  the  heat source 12 inches away to avoid damage to the plastic housing.  2. The LED on  the detector  will flash  and an alarm signal  will be sent  to the  panel when temperature reaches the alarm set point.

P/N IM-300 Rev. E  2010 Commercial Wireless Systems International, LLC  5   Figure 3 LEDS, Sounder, Test Switch and Signal Test Locations  Signal Test: The  test  must  be  performed  while  the  smoke  detector  is  held  in  its  intended  mounting location. Install batteries in the smoke detector. Initiate the test by placing a strong magnet on the smoke detector housing at the location shown in figure 3. The model 325/320 piezo sounder  will beep once. A delay of  up to 15 seconds  will occur followed by either one or two  beeps.  One  beep  indicates  an  unacceptable  location  and  two  beeps  indicate  an acceptable location.  If only one beep  is heard then relocate the  model 325/320  mounting position closer to the nearest repeater or control panel and perform the test again. Continue this  procedure  until  2  beeps  are  achieved.  Do  not  mount  the  smoke  detector  unless  2 beeps are heard when performing 5 consecutive signal tests.  This test must be performed before and after transmitter installation. Note: A CWSI  model AR-5 repeater or CP-3500D Control Panel must be powered up, installed and enrolled before running this test.             Test Switch Functions (325 Only): This switch has multiple functions and is located on the detector housing as shown in figure 3. To activate the switch, push and  hold for 5 seconds. Pressing this switch will not cause an alarm at the control panel.  The functions of the Test Switch are: 1.  Test  the  functionality  of  the  detectors  circuitry  when  pressed  while  the  detector  is  in standby. 2. Silence  the detector sounder  for 5-10 minutes if pressed anytime while the sounder is turned on in the temporal pattern.  Low batteries: The Wireless Smoke Heat Alarm is powered by 3 AAA Duracell Procell or 3 AAA Energizer E92 batteries (included). The detector regularly checks for low batteries. If low batteries are detected, the transmitter sends a low battery message to the control panel, which displays the detector’s ID. In addition, the yellow LED of the detector will blink every 12 seconds. Be sure to replace all of the batteries with fresh ones.
P/N IM-300 Rev. E  2010 Commercial Wireless Systems International, LLC  6Batteries Installation and Replacement: Warning: Always install three new batteries of one of the approved types as listed in the  Specifications  section  of  this  manual  and  the  product  label.  When  batteries  are first inserted, a low battery test is performed. If the batteries pass the test, the LED’s should indicate  the  power  up  sequence.  If  the  power  up  sequence  is  not  indicated  replace  the batteries. If the issue still exists replace the detector   To replace the batteries: 1. Place the CP-3500D Control Panel in Test mode to prevent any unwanted alarms. (Refer to the CP-3500D manual)  2. Remove the detector  from its mounting base by twisting  the detector counterclockwise. Remove  the  batteries  and  dispose  of  properly.
