WST-601 AUDIO DETECTOR patent pending Installation Manual & Users Guide SPECIFICATIONS Frequency: 319.5 MHz Operating Temperature: 32°-120°F (0°-49°C) Battery: One 3Vdc lithium CR123A (1550 mAh) Operating Humidity: 5-95% RH non condensing Battery life: 5 years Compatible with GE/Interlogix receivers Detection distance: 6 in max Supervisory signal interval: 64 min(approx.) Maximum current draw: 23mA during transmission OPERATION The audio detector sensor is designed to listen to the alarm sounder of any smoke detector. Once confirmed as an alarm, it will transmit a signal to the alarm control panel which if connected to a central monitoring station, will dispatch the fire department. WARNING: This audio detector is intended only for use with smoke detectors but it does not detect the presence of smoke, heat, or fire directly. ENROLLING (see IMAGE: 1) To enroll the sensor, set your panel into sensor learn mode. Refer to your specific alarm panel instruction manual for details on these menus. To trigger a transmission from the sensor, press the learn button or tamper switch on the detector when prompted by the panel. For some panels, you may need to manually enter the serial number, which is printed on the back of each unit. Program the zone to use sensor group 26 and ensure the Fire Verify reporting option is enabled. MOUNTING (see IMAGE: 2 & 3) Included with this device is a mounting bracket, hardware and double sided tape. To ensure proper operation ensure the side of the device with the small holes is directly facing the sounder holes on the smoke detector. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall or ceiling using the two mounting screws and double sided tape provided, then secure the audio detector to the mounting bracket using the small screw provided. The detector must be mounted within 6 inches of the detector for optimal operation. WARNING: Non-interconnected smoke detectors require an audio detector by each smoke detector sounder. This equipment should be installed in accordance with Chapter 2 of the National Fire Alarm Code, ANSI/NFPA 72, (National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269). Printed information describing proper installation, operation, testing, maintenance, evacuation planning, and repair service is to be provided with this equipment. Warning: Owner’s instruction notice: ’Not to be removed by anyone except occupant’. TESTING (see IMAGE: 1) To test the RF transmission from the mounted position you can either generate a tamper by removing the cover or press the learn button within the device. This will send a signal to the control panel. To test the audio detection, press and hold the smoke detector test button. If you have enabled the Fire Verify reporting option, the sensor will need to stay in alarm for at least one minute for the panel to verify it as an alarm and communicate to the central station. Ensure the cover is on during this test and that you wear hearing protection. NOTE: This system must be checked by a qualified technician at least once every three (3) years. Please test the unit once per week to ensure proper functionality. LED The detector is equipped with a multi-color LED. When a valid audio signal is heard the LED will turn yellow and flash in sequence to the smoke detector sounder. When the detector has determined the audio signal heard is a valid alarm, the LED will turn red to indicate it has transmitted to the panel. It will also turn red when the case is opened to indicate a tamper transmission to the control panel. On power up the LED will also flash red then green as part of its power up cycle. Insert Battery = One RED blink, then one GREEN blink In frequency sound detected = Flash YELLOW for the duration of that sound Fire Alarm detected = Solid RED for 3 seconds, then blink RED when tone detected Tamper = Solid RED for three second Learn button pressed = Solid GREEN for 3 seconds REPLACING THE BATTERY When the battery is low a signal will be sent to the control panel. To replace the battery: 1. Remove the top cover to reveal the battery. This will send a tamper signal to the control panel. 2. Replace with a Panasonic CR123A battery ensuring the + side of the battery faces as indicated on the device. 3. Re-attach the cover, you should hear a click when the cover engages properly. WARNING: While the audio detector monitors its own battery, it does not monitor the battery in the smoke detectors. Batteries should be
changed as per the original smoke detector manufacturer’s instructions. Always test the audio detector and smoke alarms after battery installation to confirm proper operation LEARN BUTTON 6” MAX TAMPER SWITCH MARKINGS TO LINE UP WITH EXISTING SMOKE DETECTOR BATT IMAGE 1: ENROLLING / TEST / TAMPER BUTTON IMAGE 2: INSTALLATION DISTANCE IMAGE 3: SIDE MARKINGS FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B digital devices, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

THE LIABILITY OF ECOLINK , OR ANY OF ITS PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY CORPORATIONS ARISING FROM THE SALE OF THIS SMOKE ALARM DETECTOR OR UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY SHALL NOT IN ANY CASE EXCEED THE COST OF REPLACEMENT OF A SMOKE ALARM DETECTOR AND, IN NO CASE, SHALL ECOLINK , OR ANY OF ITS PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY CORPORATIONS BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSSES OR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE FAILURE OF THE SMOKE ALARM DETECTOR OR FOR BREACH OF THIS OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EVEN IF THE LOSS OR DAMAGE IS CAUSED BY THE COMPANY’S NEGLIGENCE OR FAULT. The audio detector does not detect the presence of smoke, heat, or fire directly. It relies solely on the presence of an audio alarm signal generated by an existing smoke or fire detector in proximity to the audio detector to make such a determination. The audio detector must be used with smoke detectors certified according to UL Standards, and in strict accordance with the installation and operation instructions provided with such detectors. It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that smoke or fire detectors used in conjunction with the audio detector are maintained and tested on a regular basis in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Ecolink expressly disclaims any responsibility for the failure of the audio detector to detect the presence of smoke or fire due to the failure of any smoke or fire detector used in conjunction with the audio detector to operate properly due to any condition, including improper installation, operation, maintenance or testing of such smoke or fire detector.
