Supervised Wireless PowerCode Smoke / Heat and
Smoke Detector
Installation Instructions
1. DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS
MCT-426 (smoke detector) and MCT-427 (heat and smoke detector)
are heat and smoke automatic fire detectors with integral audible
signal for open area protection, designed to sense heat or smoke
(not flame) and fitted with a PowerCode type UHF transmitter.
MCT-426 / MCT-427 provides early warning of developing fire by
sounding an alarm with its built-in alarm horn, and by transmitting
a coded alarm signal to a PowerCode receiver or to a compatible
wireless alarm control panel. For UL approved installation use
only PowerMax+ control panel.
It must be borne in mind, though that effective prewarning of fire
accidents is only possible if the detector is located, installed and
maintained as described here.
In alarm condition, the buzzer sound can be stopped for 12 minutes
by pressing the TEST/MUTE switch. It will not restore the alarm
condition, but will temporarily silence the buzzer while you correct
the condition. After 12 minutes, the detector restarts the alarm
buzzer sound.
Note: The TEST/MUTE switch functions as TEST switch (in
normal operation) or as MUTE switch (in alarm condition).
The tamper switch actuator (Fig. 3) is pressed against the bracket
when the unit is attached to the bracket. Removal of the unit from the
bracket causes the switch contacts to open, creating a tamper event,
which is reported by the transmitter to the alarm system control panel.

3.3 Battery Connection and Initial Test
Attention: The detector battery cover is fitted with a red button
that prevents the detector from locking onto bracket if there is no
battery inside.
The smoke detector is supplied with a 3V CR123A / CR17450
battery. Battery connection for both types of batteries is illustrated
in Figure 3a and 3b below.

connected properly.
Close the cover, then press the test button (see fig. 1) for about 5
seconds, (for further details see par. 3.6).
3.4 Resetting the Transmitter Module
and Enrolling its PowerCode ID
The detector has a wall / rear tamper switch to alert removal of
detector. The tamper switch actuator, extending through a hole in
the base (see Figure 3), is pressed against the bracket when the
unit is attached to the bracket.
Removal of the unit from the bracket will cause the switch contacts
to open, creating a tamper event, which will be reported by the
transmitter to the control panel.
Refer to the control panel’s installation instructions and follow the
procedure given there for enrolling transmitter IDs in the control
panel's memory.
When required to initiate a transmission for enrollment, press the
smoke detector’s test button (see fig. 1) until the built-in horn
sounds, or press the tamper switch.
Note: It is much easier to carry out this operation while holding
the MCT-426 / MCT-427 in your hand, close to the control panel.

4. SMOKE DETECTOR INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
4.1 Where to Install Smoke Detectors
Smoke detectors should be installed in accordance with the
NFPA Standard 74 (National Fire Protection Association,
Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02169). For complete coverage
in residential units, smoke detectors should be installed in all
rooms, halls, storage areas, basements and attics in each family
living unit. Minimum coverage is one detector on each floor and
one in each sleeping area and attics in each family living unit.
For maximum protection, a smoke detector should be located
outside primary sleeping areas or on each level of your home.
Here are a few useful tips for you:
• Install a smoke detector in the hallway outside every separate
bedroom area, as in Figure 5. Two detectors are required in
homes with two bedroom areas, as in Figure 6.
• Install a smoke detector on every floor of a multi-floor home or
apartment, as shown in Figure 7.
• Install a minimum of two detectors in any household.
• Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom.
• Install smoke detectors at both ends of a bedroom hallway if
the hallway is more than 12 meters (40 feet) long.
Figure 5. Locations for Placing Smoke Detectors in a Single
Residence with only One Sleeping Area
• Install a smoke detector inside every room where one sleeps
with the door partly or completely closed, since smoke could be
blocked by the closed door and a hallway alarm may not wake
up the sleeper if the door is closed.
Figure 6. Locations for Placing Smoke Detectors in Single-Floor
Residence with More than One Sleeping Area.
Figure 7. Placing Smoke Detectors in a Multi-Floor Residence
• Install basement detectors at the bottom of the basement stairwell.
• Install second-floor detectors at the top of the first-to-second
floor stairwell.
• Be sure no door or other obstruction blocks the path of smoke
to the detector.
• Install additional detectors in your living room, dining room,
family room, attic, utility and storage rooms.
• Install smoke detectors as close to the center of the ceiling as
possible. If this is not practical, put the detector on the ceiling,
at least 10 cm (4 inches) away from any wall or corner, as
shown in Figure 8.
• If ceiling mounting is not possible and wall mounting is
permitted by your local and state codes, locate the detectors
between 10 - 15 cm (4 - 6 inches) from the ceiling, also see
Figure 8.
• If some of your rooms have sloped, peaked, or gabled ceilings,
try to mount detectors 0.9 meter (3 feet) measured horizontally
from the highest point of the ceiling as shown in Figure 9.

and Acceptable Locations to
Mount Smoke Detectors

CAUTION (As required by the California State Fire
Marshall)
"Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the
installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms
and areas of the household as follows:
(1) A smoke detector installed in each separate sleeping area (in
the vicinity, but outside the bedrooms), and (2) Heat or smoke
detectors in the living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, kitchens,
hallways, attics, furnace rooms, closets, utility and storage rooms,
basements and attached garages."
4.2 Where Not to Install Smoke Detectors
False alarms occur when smoke detectors are installed where
they will not work properly. To avoid false alarms, do not install
smoke detectors in the following situations:
• Combustion particles are by-products of something burning. Do
not install smoke detectors in or near areas where combustion
particles are present, such as kitchens with few windows or
poor ventilation, garages where there may be vehicle exhaust,
near furnaces, hot water heaters and space heaters.
• Do not install smoke detectors less than 6 meters (20 feet)
away from places where combustion particles are normally
present, like kitchens. If a 20-foot distance is not possible, try to
install the detector as far away from the combustion particles
as possible, preferably on the wall. To prevent false alarms,
provide good ventilation in such places.
IMPORTANT: Never try to avoid false alarms by disabling
the detector.
• Do not mount smoke detectors in the path of fresh air intake.
The flow of fresh air in and out can drive smoke away from the
smoke detector; thus reducing its efficiency. Figure 10 indicates
the correct and incorrect locations concerning this problem.
• Near pain thinner fumes.
• In close proximity to an automobile exhaust pipe; this will
damage the detector.
• In damp or very humid areas or near bathrooms with showers.
Moisture in humid air can enter the sensing chamber, then
turns into droplets upon cooling, which can cause false alarms.
Install smoke detectors at least 3 meters (10 feet) away from
bathrooms.
• In very cold or very hot areas, including unheated buildings or
outdoor rooms. If the temperature goes above or below the
operating range of smoke detector, it will not work properly.
Verify that the temperature range of the detector falls within the
Operating Temperature, (see chapter 2. Specifications).
• In very dusty or dirty areas, dirt and dust can build up on the
detector's sensing chamber, to make it overly sensitive.
• Additionally, dust or dirt can block openings to the sensing
chamber and keep the detector from sensing smoke.
• Near fresh air vents or very drafty areas like air conditioners,
heaters or fans. Fresh air vents and drafts can drive smoke
away from smoke detectors.
• Dead air spaces are often at the top of a peaked roof, or in the
corners between ceilings and walls. Dead air may prevent
smoke from reaching a detector. See Figures 8 and 9 for
recommended mounting locations.
• In insect-infested areas. If insects enter a detector's sensing
chamber, they may cause a false alarm. Where bugs are a
problem, get rid of them before putting up a detector.
• Near fluorescent lights, electrical "noise" from fluorescent lights
may cause false alarms. Install smoke detectors at least 1.5
meters (5 feet) from such lights.
• Smoke detection depends on the smoke density present in
a room. Smoke density is greater in small rooms, for the
same amount of smoke, than in large rooms.
In small rooms less than 25 cubic meters (883 cubic ft.) in
size, a small amount of smoke may activate a smoke alert.
For example, smoking or bathroom steam may activate a
smoke alert.
Figure 10. Recommended Smoke Detector Locations to Avoid Air
Streams with Combustion Particles
WARNING: Never remove batteries to stop a false alarm. Open a
window or fan the air around the detector to get rid of the smoke.
The alarm will turn itself off when the smoke is gone. If false alarms
persist, attempt to clean the detector as described in this manual.
WARNING: Do not stand close to the detector when the alarm is
sounding. The alarm is loud in order to wake you in an
emergency. Too much exposure to the horn at close range may
be harmful to your hearing.
4.3 Smoke Detector Limitations
A. This smoke detector is designed for use in a single residential
unit or offices, which means that it should be used inside a
single family home or apartment or office.
B. Please refer to NFPA 101, the Life Safety Code, NFPA72 for
smoke detector requirements for fire protection in buildings not
defined as "households".
C. The smoke detector will not sense a fire if the smoke does
not reach the sensor. In order for a smoke detector to sense
smoke, it must be installed in the immediate vicinity of the fire.
In addition, smoke from fires in chimneys, in walls, on roofs, in
remote parts of the building, or on another level from where the
smoke detector is located, may not reach the smoke detector
quickly enough for occupants to escape unharmed. For this
reason, installer shall install smoke detectors on every level, in
every sleeping area and in every bedroom of the household.
D. Smoke detector may not be heard. The alarm horn in this
smoke detector meets or exceeds current Underwriter’s
Laboratories standards. However, if the smoke detector is not
located in the same room as the occupant or if it is blocked by a
closed door or normal noise, the alarm horn may not be heard.
In addition, sound sleepers, or persons who are under the
influence of drugs or alcohol may not hear the alarm or be able
to react to it. Therefore, locate this smoke detector, which
has a sounder rated at 85 dB at 10 feet, on every level, in
every sleeping area and in every bedroom of the
household.
E. This detector, if used as a stand-alone unit, will not alert
people who are hard of hearing.
F. In general, detectors may not always warn you about fires
caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in
bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of
flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children
playing with matches or arson.
G Smoke detectors are not fool-proof. Like all electronic
devices, smoke detectors have limitations. No type of
smoke detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In
addition, smoke from slow, smoldering fires rises slowly
and may not reach the smoke detector until actual flame
breaks out. This type of smoke may not reach the smoke
detector in time for occupants to escaped unharmed.
D-302151 5
H. Smoke detectors are not a substitute for life or property
insurance. Though smoke detectors have been responsible
for saving many lives, they are not warranted or implied to
protect lives or property in the event of fire.
I. These wireless systems are very reliable and are tested to
high standards. However, due to their low transmitting power
and limited range (required by the regulatory authorities), there
are some limitations to be considered:
i) Receivers may be blocked by radio signals on or near their
operating frequencies, regardless of the code selected.
ii) A receiver can only respond to one transmitted signal at a
time.
iii) Wireless equipment should be tested regularly to
determine whether there are sources of interference and
to protect against faults.
5. TAKING CARE OF THE MCT-426 or MCT-427
5.1 Battery Replacement
The MCT-426 and MCT-427 were designed to be as maintenance-
free as possible. To keep the smoke detector in good working
order, you must test it weekly, as instructed in Para. 6.1 below.
Make it a rule to replace the detector’s battery (lithium) once
every 8 years even if there is no indication that the battery is
weak. Also be sure to replace it immediately upon reception of a
low battery message via your control panel.
If you disregard this message, an audible reminder in the form
of once-per-minute "beep" will sound after a few days. The
low-battery "beep" should last at least 30 days before the
battery dies out completely.
NOTE: For best performance, use only lithium batteries as
replacement batteries (see specifications). Carbon zinc batteries
are not acceptable.
Replace the battery as follows:
A. Separate the detector from its bracket (see figure 2).
B. Replace battery (see Figure 3a or Figure 3b according to the
battery used).
5.2 Maintenance
It is necessary to maintain the detector frequently to ensure it
working properly. Follow these tips for taking care of your detector:
• Use a vacuum cleaner to clean the air vents occasionally to
keep them free of dust. When a "Clean Warning"
transmission is received, the detector should be cleaned.
When a trouble event is received, the detector should be
removed (see Table 1 for visual and audible indications).
• Perform detector functional test (see par. 3.7) weekly.
• A clean (maintenance) signal is transmitted when the
detector's chamber sensitivity becomes degraded.
Note: This transmission applies to the PowerMax+ control
panel only.
Note: If false alarms keep occurring, check whether the
detector's location is adequate (see Para. 4.1 and 4.2). Relocate
the unit if it is not located properly. Clean as described above.
6. ADDITIONAL ADVICE
6.1 Routine Testing
The detector should be tested weekly and also whenever you
suspect that it does not go into alarm. Push the test button firmly
with your finger until the horn sounds (it may take up to 20 seconds,
for further details see par. 3.6). Also verify that the control panel
responds to the transmitted fire alarm. If the detector fails, have it
repaired or replaced immediately, to ensure that it works properly.
Every 3 months the smoke detector must be checked by using
smoke detectors test sprayer.
WARNING: Never use an open flame of any kind to test your
detector. You may set fire to damage the detector as well as
your home. The built-in test switch accurately tests all
detector functions, as required by Underwriters' Labora-
tories. This is the only correct way to test the unit.
NOTE: If the alarm horn produces a loud continuous sound and
the red LED flashes when you are not testing the unit, this means
the detector has sensed smoke or combustion particles in the air.
Verify that the alarm is a result of a possible serious situation,
which requires your immediate attention.
• The alarm could be caused by a false situation. Cooking
smoke or a dusty furnace, sometimes called "friendly fires" can
cause the alarm to sound. If this happens, open a window or
fan the air away to remove the smoke or dust. The alarm will
turn off as soon as the air is completely clear.
CAUTION: Do not disconnect the battery from the detector.
This will remove your protection from fires.
• If there is any question as to the cause of an alarm, it
should be assumed that the alarm is due to an actual fire
and the residence should be evacuated immediately.
• If the alarm horn begins to beep once every 30 sec (for further
details, see par. 3.6), this signal means that the detector's
battery is weak. Install a new battery immediately. Keep fresh
batteries on hand for this purpose.
6.2 Tips to Enhance Your Protection
From Fires
Putting up smoke detectors is only one step in protecting your family
from fires. You must also reduce the chances of fires starting in your
home. You must also increase your chances of escaping safely if one
does start. To have a good fire safety program you must apply the
following tips to enhance your family's protection from fires:
A. Install smoke detectors properly. Carefully follow all the
instructions in this manual. Keep your smoke detectors
clean and test them every week.
B. Remember that detectors that do not work will not alert
you. Replace your smoke detectors immediately if they are
not working properly.7
C. Follow fire safety rules, and prevent hazardous situations:
• Use smoking materials properly. Never smoke in bed.
• Keep matches and cigarette lighters away from children.
• Store flammable materials in proper containers. Never use them
near open flame or sparks.
• Keep electrical appliances in good condition. Do not overload
electrical circuits.
• Keep stoves, fireplaces, chimneys, and barbecue grills grease
free. Make sure they are properly installed and away from any
combustible materials.
• Keep portable heaters and open flames such as candles away
from combustible materials.
• Do not allow rubbish to accumulate.
• Keep a supply of extra batteries on hand for your battery
powered smoke detectors.
D. Develop a family escape plan and practice it with your entire
family. Be sure to include small children in your practice.
• Draw a floor plan of your home, and find two ways to exit from
each room. There should be one way to get out of each
bedroom without opening the door.
• Explain to children what the smoke detector alarm signal means.
Teach them that they must be prepared to leave the home by
themselves if necessary. Show them how to check to see if doors
are hot before opening them. Show them how to stay close to the
floor and crawl if necessary. Show them how to use the alternate
exit if the door is hot and should not be opened.
• Decide on a meeting place which has a safe distance from your
house. Make sure that all your children understand that they
should go and wait for you there if there is a fire.
• Hold fire drills at least every 6 months, making sure that everyone,
even small children, knows what to do to escape safely.
• Know where to go to call the Fire Department outside your home.
• Provide emergency equipment, such as fire extinguishers, and
teach your family to use this equipment properly.

6.3 More Tips on How to Face a Fire at
Home
If you have made an escape plan and practiced it with your
family, their chances of escaping safely are increased. Go over
the following rules with your children when you have fire drills.
This will help everyone remember the rules in a real emergency.
A. Don't panic and stay calm. Your safe escape may depend on
thinking clearly and remembering what you have practiced.
B. Get out of the house as quickly as possible. Follow a planned
escape route. Do not stop to collect anything or to get dressed.
C. Feel the doors to see if they are hot. If they are not, open
them carefully. Do not open a door if it is hot. Use an alternate
escape route.
D. Stay close to the floor. Smoke and hot gases rise.
E. Cover your nose and mouth with a wet or damp cloth. Take
short, shallow breaths.
F. Keep doors and windows closed. Open them only if you have
to in order to escape.
G. Meet at your planned meeting place after leaving the house.
H. Call the Fire Department as soon as possible from outside
your house. Give the address and your name.
I. Never go back inside a burning building. Contact your local Fire
Department. They will give you more ideas about how to make
your home safer from fires and how to plan your family's escape.
