Digital Monitoring Products Inc PC0134 User Manual

The 1183 Series wireless heat detectors are used with DMP 1100 Series Wireless Receivers.  The 1183 Series is 

available in two models: 1183-135F and 1183-135R.
The 1183-135F is a fixed temperature detector that reacts to heat by responding to the fixed 135° temperature 

setting.  When activated, an alarm is sent to the control panel.  The 1183-135F model has a black dot on the heat 

collector fin for identification.
The 1183-135R model is a combination rate-of-rise and fixed temperature detector that detects heat quickly by 

responding to a rapid temperature increase or a fixed 135° temperature setting.  The element responds to a rapid 

rise in temperature and sends an alarm to the control panel when the ceiling temperature increases at a minimum 

rate of 15°F per minute.  An alarm is also sent 

to the panel if the ceiling temperature reaches 

the fixed 135° setting if the rate-of-rise is not 

exceeded. 

All DMP 1100 Series Wireless Receivers and Panels

The 1183 Wireless Heat Detector package includes 

the following items:

•  One 1183-135F Heat Detector with DMP 

wireless transmitter installed

 

 

   OR

•  One 1183-135R Heat Detector with DMP 

wireless transmitter installed

 

 

  AND

•  One 3V lithium CR123A battery

•  Hardware pack

•  Zone name and number label

•  Serial number labels

For your convenience, an additional pre-printed serial number label is included.  Prior to installing the device, 

record the serial number or place the pre-printed serial number label on the panel programming sheet.  This number 

is required during programming.   As needed, use the zone name and number label to identify a specific transmitter.

Locate and record the detector serial number.  This number is required during programming.  Program the device as 

a FIRE type zone in 

Zone Information during panel programming.  At the Serial Number: prompt, enter the eight-

digit serial number.  Continue to program the zone as directed in the panel programming guide.  
Note:  When a receiver is installed, powered up, or the panel is reset, the supervision time for transmitters is reset.  

If the receiver has been powered down for more than one hour, wireless transmitters may take up to an additional 

hour to send a supervision message unless tripped, tampered, or powered up.  This operation extends battery life for 

transmitters.  A missing message may display on the keypad until the transmitter sends a supervision message.

TROUBLE

The 1183 Series heat detectors use a heat collector fin (See Figure 1) to detect temperature changes.   

The fin is spring loaded and sensitive to handling.  Do not set the detector on the collector fin or  

put pressure on the fin while handling as this could cause damage to the internal operation.
