SMD-426/427 PG2
Supervised Wireless PowerG Smoke Detector /
Heat and Smoke Detector
Installation Instructions
1. INT RODU CT ION
SMD-426 PG2 (photoelectric smoke detector) and SMD-427 PG2 (heat and photoelectric 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 PG2 / SMD-427 PG2 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 PG2 will activate a fire alarm upon either smoke or heat condition. With two fire sensors (heat and smoke), the SMD-427 PG2 detector may shorten the
time to fire alarm activation.
It must be borne in mind, though that effective pre-warning 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 8 minutes (UL) and 10 minutes (EN) 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 8 minutes (UL) and 10 minutes (EN),
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 detector can also operate as a siren to indicate a fire alarm in other areas covered by the
alarm system, or to indicate burglar alarm events, as configured through the control panel (see the
PowerMaster Installer Guide).
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.

2.2 Where t o I nst all Smoke De te ctors
WARNING! To comply with FCC and IC 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.
Le dispositif doit être placé à une distance d'au moins 20 cm à partir detoutes les personnes au cours de son fonctionnement normal. Les
antennesutilisées pour ce produit ne doivent pas être situés ou exploitésconjointement avec une autre antenne ou transmetteur.
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."
2.3 Where N ot to I nst all Smok e Dete c tors
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
D-302894 SMD-426 PG2, SMD-427 PG2 Installation Instructions 3
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.
2.4 Audible and Visual Indica tions

3. SMOKE DET ECTOR TEST
Notes:
i) Insert the battery and then mount the detector on the bracket before conducting the smoke detector test.
ii) After the battery is inserted, the detector enters the Local Diagnostic Test Mode for 15 minutes.
iii) It is recommended to test the detector when conducting the Periodic Test using the User Code (User Diagnostic Mode) or when conducting the
Periodic Test using the Installer Code (Installer Diagnostic Mode).
Caution! The diagnostics test cannot be performed while tamper is in "open" state.
Enter the test mode by pressing the test button for 2 seconds and release it. In this mode, the detector will test smoke, heat and battery functions. If all
functions are good, the red LED lights 0.5s, off 0.5s, the yellow LED lights 0.5s, off 0.5s followed by a loud 3-beep alarm and the red LED flashes
simultaneously. Otherwise, the detector produces the warning signals as detailed in Table 1.
If the detector is in any diagnostics mode (see Notes above), the detector performs the diagnostics test as described below.
Diagnost ics Te st
A. The detector performs a communication quality test and visual indication by LED (lights orange).
B. When the LED lights orange (red and green), this indicates correct operation of the LEDs.
C. The detector now performs the link quality test.
Note: If the detector is not in local diagnostics or installer diagnostics mode, the detector will not perform the link quality test.
D. At the end of the diagnostics test the LED blinks 3 times.
The following table indicates received signal strength indication.
LED response Reception
Green LED blinks Strong
Orange LED blinks Good
Red LED blinks Poor
No blinks No communication
IMPORTANT! Reliable reception must be assured. Therefore, "poor" signal strength is not acceptable. If you receive a "poor" signal from the detector, re-
locate it and re-test until a "good" or "strong" signal strength is received.
1. For detailed Diagnostics Test instructions refer to the control panel Installer Guide.
2. For UL/CUL installations, the test result must be “Strong”.
4. MOUNTING
1. Mark and drill 2 holes in the mounting surface. Fasten the bracket to the
mounting surface with 2 screws.
2. Align bracket tabs with the detector slots and rotate the detector as
shown. Pull the detector outward to verify that it is securely attached.

Notes
1. A battery must be inserted into the detector before the detector can be
mounted onto the bracket.
2. Ensure that the bracket is tightly secured to the installation surface.
3. Ensure that the detector and the bracket are clean from any concrete
or gypsum dust from adjacent walls or ceiling.
4. Unauthorized removal of the unit from the bracket will initiate a tamper
alert!
5. SMOKE DET ECTOR LI MI TATI ON S
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.
6 D-302894 SMD-426 PG2, SMD-427 PG2 Installation Instructions
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.
6. T AK IN G CARE OF TH E SM D-4 26 PG2 or SM D-4 27 PG2
6.1 Battery Replacement
The SMD-426 PG2 and SMD-427 PG2 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 par. 3 "Smoke Detector Test".
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).
6.2 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 'Smoke Detector Test") 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 par. 2 "Installation"). Relocate the unit if it is not located
properly. Clean as described above.
7. ADDIT IONAL ADVICE
7.1 Routine Te sting
The detector should be tested weekly and also whenever you suspect that it does not go into alarm (for further details see par. 3 'Smoke Detector
Test"). 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.
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 table in par. 2.4 "Audible and Visual Indications"), this signal means that the
detector's battery is weak. Install a new battery immediately. Keep fresh batteries on hand for this purpose.
7.2 Tips to Enha nce Your Prote ction 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
D-302894 SMD-426 PG2, SMD-427 PG2 Installation Instructions 7
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.
7.3 More T ips on H ow t o Fac e 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.
