SMD-426, SMD-427
Supervised Wireless PowerG Smoke / Heat and
Smoke Detector
Installation Instructions
1. INTRODUCTION
SMD-426 (smoke detector) and SMD-427 (heat and smoke detector)
are automatic fire detectors with integral audible signal for open area
protection, designed to sense heat or smoke (not flame) and fitted
with a PowerG type transceiver.
SMD-426 / SMD-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 PowerG receiver or to a compatible wireless
alarm control panel.
SMD-427 will activate a fire alarm upon either smoke or heat
(temperature rate-of-rise) condition. With two fire sensors (heat and
smoke), the SMD-427 detector may shorten the time to fire alarm
activation.
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 (Figures 9a and 9b) 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 transceiver to the alarm system control panel.
Note: When the tamper switch is opened the detector becomes not ready
for operation.

3.2 Where to Install Smoke Detectors
WARNING! To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements, the smoke detector should be located at a distance of
at least 20 cm from all persons during normal operation. The
antennas used for this product must not be co-located or operated in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter
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 3. Two detectors are required in homes
with two bedroom areas, as in Figure 4.
Install a smoke detector on every floor of a multi-floor home or
apartment, as shown in Figure 5.
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. 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 6.
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 6.
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 7.

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."
3.3 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 8 indicates the correct
and incorrect locations concerning this problem.
Near paint 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 6 and 7 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.

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.

3.5 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 Figures
9a and 9b below.

properly.
Close the cover, then press the test button (see fig. 1) for about 2
seconds, (for further details see par. 3.6).
3.6 Resetting the Transceiver Module
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 Figures 9a and 9b), 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
transceiver to the control panel.

8. 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 escape unharmed.
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.

9. TAKING CARE OF THE SMD-426 or SMD-427
9.1 Battery Replacement
The SMD-426 and SMD-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 9a or Figure 9b according to the
battery used).
9.2 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: 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.
10. ADDITIONAL ADVICE
10.1 Routine Testing
The detector should be tested weekly and also whenever you suspect
that it does not go into alarm (for further details see par. 3.6). 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' Laboratories. 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. 3.2), this signal means that the detector's battery is weak.
Install a new battery immediately. Keep fresh batteries on hand for
this purpose.
10.2 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.
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.
10.3 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.

WARRANTY
Visonic Limited (the “Manufacturer") warrants this product only (the "Product") to the original purchaser only (the
“Purchaser”) against defective workmanship and materials under normal use of the Product for a period of twelve
(12) months from the date of shipment by the Manufacturer.
This Warranty is absolutely conditional upon the Product having been properly installed, maintained and operated
under conditions of normal use in accordance with the Manufacturers recommended installation and operation
instructions. Products which have become defective for any other reason, according to the Manufacturers
discretion, such as improper installation, failure to follow recommended installation and operational instructions,
neglect, willful damage, misuse or vandalism, accidental damage, alteration or tampering, or repair by anyone
other than the manufacturer, are not covered by this Warranty.
The Manufacturer does not represent that this Product may not be compromised and/or circumvented or that the
Product will prevent any death and/or personal injury and/or damage to property resulting from burglary, robbery,
fire or otherwise, or that the Product will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. The Product,
properly installed and maintained, only reduces the risk of such events without warning and it is not a guarantee
or insurance that such events will not occur.
THIS WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE AND EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, OBLIGATIONS
OR LIABILITIES, WHETHER WRITTEN, ORAL, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR OTHERWISE. IN NO CASE SHALL
THE MANUFACTURER BE LIABLE TO ANYONE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES
FOR BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY OR ANY OTHER WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER, AS AFORESAID.
THE MANUFACTURER SHALL IN NO EVENT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR FOR LOSS, DAMAGE, OR EXPENSE, INCLUDING LOSS
OF USE, PROFITS, REVENUE, OR GOODWILL, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING FROM
PURCHASER’S USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCT, OR FOR LOSS OR DESTRUCTION OF
OTHER PROPERTY OR FROM ANY OTHER CAUSE, EVEN IF MANUFACTURER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF
THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.
THE MANUFACTURER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY DEATH, PERSONAL AND/OR BODILY
INJURY AND/OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY OR OTHER LOSS WHETHER DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL OR OTHERWISE, BASED ON A CLAIM THAT THE PRODUCT FAILED TO FUNCTION.
However, if the Manufacturer is held liable, whether directly or indirectly, for any loss or damage arising under this
limited warranty, THE MANUFACTURER'S MAXIMUM LIABILITY (IF ANY) SHALL NOT IN ANY CASE
EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT, which shall be fixed as liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, and shall be the complete and exclusive remedy against the Manufacturer.
When accepting the delivery of the Product, the Purchaser agrees to the said conditions of sale and warranty and
he recognizes having been informed of.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so these
limitations may not apply under certain circumstances.
The Manufacturer shall be under no liability whatsoever arising out of the corruption and/or malfunctioning of any
telecommunication or electronic equipment or any programs.
The Manufacturers obligations under this Warranty are limited solely to repair and/or replace at the
Manufacturer’s discretion any Product or part thereof that may prove defective. Any repair and/or replacement
shall not extend the original Warranty period. The Manufacturer shall not be responsible for dismantling and/or
reinstallation costs. To exercise this Warranty the Product must be returned to the Manufacturer freight pre-paid
and insured. All freight and insurance costs are the responsibility of the Purchaser and are not included in this
Warranty.
This warranty shall not be modified, varied or extended, and the Manufacturer does not authorize any person to
act on its behalf in the modification, variation or extension of this warranty. This warranty shall apply to the Product
only. All products, accessories or attachments of others used in conjunction with the Product, including batteries,
shall be covered solely by their own warranty, if any. The Manufacturer shall not be liable for any damage or loss
whatsoever, whether directly, indirectly, incidentally, consequentially or otherwise, caused by the malfunction of
the Product due to products, accessories, or attachments of others, including batteries, used in conjunction with
the Products. This Warranty is exclusive to the original Purchaser and is not assignable.
This Warranty is in addition to and does not affect your legal rights. Any provision in this warranty which is
contrary to the Law in the state or country were the Product is supplied shall not apply.
Warning: The user must follow the Manufacturer’s installation and operational instructions including testing the
Product and its whole system at least once a week and to take all necessary precautions for his/her safety and the
protection of his/her property.
