Learn Mode Rate of Rise Heat Sensors Installation Instructions
•
Do not mount the sensor close to devices that change
temperature rapidly, such as ovens, heat vents, furnaces,
or boilers.
Equipment needed
You will need the following equipment to install the sensors:
•
Phillips and flathead screwdrivers
•
Appropriate learn mode control panel documentation (for
programming information)
Programming
The panel must learn (program) the sensor ID code in order to
respond to sensor signals. For complete programming
information, refer to the specific control panel documentation.
To add the sensor to panel memory, do the following:
1. Separate the sensor from the base by twisting the sensor
counter-clockwise and pulling the sensor off the base. Set
the base aside.
2. Place the panel in program mode.
3. Proceed to the Learn Sensors menu. When the panel
prompts you for a sensor group number, enter the group
number (26).
4. Select the desired sensor number.
5. When the panel prompts you to trip the sensor, press and
hold the learn switch on the sensor (
) until the
panel beeps, indicating successful programming.

6. Exit program mode.
Testing
Before permanently securing the sensor to the wall or ceiling,
test the sensor from the installation location using one of the
following methods.
Caution:
The test method described only tests rate-of-rise
operation. These sensors cannot be field tested for their fixed
temperature ratings without being destroyed. When used with
care, the heat from a portable hair dryer (method 2) can be
used for testing. Do not aim the hair dryer directly at the round
disc on the sensor as this can cause it to pop off. If this
happened, the sensor must be replaced.
Method 1
To test the sensor, do the following:
1. Place the panel in sensor test mode.
2. Rub your hands together vigorously, until they feel hot.
3. Place the palm of one hand on the round disc of the
sensor, for about 7 to 10 seconds.
4. Listen for the appropriate number of beeps from interior
sirens and speakers (refer to the specific panel
documentation).
5. Exit sensor test mode.
The sensor should reset in less than one minute.
Method 2
To test the sensor, do the following:
1. Place the panel in sensor test mode.
2. Plug in a portable hair dryer.
3. Hold the hair dryer about 12 to 18 in. away from the
sensor, aiming it at the side of the sensor.
4. Listen for the appropriate number of beeps from interior
sirens and speakers (refer to the specific panel
documentation).
5. Exit sensor test mode.
The sensor should reset in less than one minute.
Mounting the sensor
To secure the sensor to its permanent location, do the
following:
1. Locate the base mounting holes (inner pair and outer pair)
and mount the base to the wall or ceiling with the
appropriate hardware (
2. Attach the sensor to the base.
